Chapter 1151: 1157

Malibu, daenerys studios.

Nicole Kidman and an assistant just got out of the car park in the movie city district, and Linda Vargas met them.

They hugged each other warmly. Linda and Nicole walked to the No.1 office building side by side and said, "Nicole, I'm surprised that you can promise to play the role of Queen Galadriel. However, in my opinion, you are definitely the most suitable one. "

"In fact, I think so too, Linda. Frankly, I combed other Hollywood actresses myself and found that there was no more suitable one than me. If I let them play badly, it would be like they played badly on me, so of course I would come by myself."

"Oh, I can only say that you won't regret it in the future. You have to believe Simon's eyes. He spent 10 million dollars to buy the copyright of the Lord of the rings."

"Of course."

They said they had entered the office building.

Waiting for the elevator gap, Nicole asked, "what is Simon doing now?"

"Coincidentally, about your granddaughter audition."

Nicole responded immediately: "Princess Arwen?"

"Yes," Linda and Nicole walked into the elevator together, and then said, "I can see that Simon is very hesitant about Princess Arwen's actor, and he's not sure which one to choose best, so he arranged an audition himself today."

Nicole nodded in a mixed mood.

What they are discussing at this time is, of course, the selection of roles in the recent trilogy of the Lord of the rings.

In a word, the reason for the uproar is that Denise Entertainment's publicity campaign officially started.

At the end of last year, Peter Jackson completely completed the later stage of the ghost of terror. In fact, the Lord of the rings trilogy has been secretly approved. For more than half a year, Jackson has been working in Australia with his team to write scripts, make scenes, make demo animations, tackle key special effects and so on.

After all the preliminary work was completed and approved by Simon at the beginning of this month, the casting was officially launched.

China land fantasy series, which is comparable to journey to the west, has officially started casting, announcing that the film has entered the substantive production stage. Denise entertainment has also launched the first stage of publicity. After all, it is a trilogy series with huge investment. In order to ensure the success of the film to the greatest extent, it is necessary to continuously produce various topics to create momentum for the film before it is officially released.

And Nicole Kidman.

In the previous trilogy of the Lord of the rings, male characters such as Gandalf, Frodo and Prince Legolas are basically very successful, except Agent Smith. Even if you are not as handsome as Lee pace, you can't be too ugly, can you?

Therefore, in addition to Hugo Vivan, other male characters will basically use the original version.

As for the two important female roles, Kate Blanchett's Fairy Queen, galantrel, and liv Taylor's Princess Arwen, Simon plans to change them all.

Kate the devil is an actress Simon likes very much, but it's a pity that she lost in her face.

Simon has also delineated the new galantrel, Nicole Kidman, from a very early age.

Compared with Kate, Nicole, who was at the peak of her appearance in the 1990s, was just perfect for this role.

However, there are some problems this time.

Nicole has a lot of money now, and the commercial film's salary is basically $5 million.

If the trilogy is packaged according to the normal price, even if it is slightly discounted, the film pay will reach the level of tens of millions of dollars, which is obviously beyond the limit of the project.

After all, there are dozens of famous characters in the Lord of the rings series. Simon's strategy is to choose all the second and third tier actors, even the new ones.

Therefore, many important roles, such as Orlando Bloom, who plays the prince of the elves, and Viggo Mortensen, who plays the emperor Aragorn, will not have a fixed film payment in the negotiated agreement. Instead, they will only get a weekly salary like ordinary employees behind the scenes. Bloom, who used to be very popular, will only get $2000 a week in this agreement.

Such a casting strategy can ensure that the largest proportion of the budget is spent on the production of the film.

Why is the quality of the former "Lord of the rings" trilogy so high, and the standard of special effects even difficult for many so-called special effects blockbusters twenty years later? There is no big name in the trilogy to participate in the performance and divide up the budget, which is precisely a key reason.

Simon wanted to give up Nicole at first, but later he let Linda test her.

I didn't show up in person. I have a clear attitude. I can do it or not.

Because Simon only gave us $5 million for the film, trilogy, and 5 million, and there was no sharing clause, this time it was impossible to promise the Oscar supporting actress as a replacement, just as it was in the shooting of "secrets of Los Angeles".

The average salary of more than $1.6 million is far lower than Nicole's value. However, if you accept it, Nicole is still the highest paid one in the Lord of the rings trilogy, and of course the coffee seat is also the highest.Nicole obviously hesitated, and didn't give a formal reply until half a month later.

I'm willing to play.

Simon didn't go deep into the girl's mental process, just arranged a make-up test today.

When they come to a floor specially set up for the Lord of the rings project, Nicole and Linda don't go directly to the dressing room. Instead, they come to an audition room and enter quietly. They are auditioning here.

Two women stood quietly behind several staff members, looking at a pair of men and women in ancient costume performing in the venue.

Obviously, the black haired girl who plays Princess Arwen is affectionate and comforting: "your destiny is different from his."

"But my body is flowing with the same blood as him," the man said. He turned slowly with his back to Arwen's body and looked at her: "we have the same weakness."

Princess Arwen stepped forward, and in her consolation, she showed a kind of predictive tone: "when that day comes, you will face the same evil, but you will overcome it."

At this point, Arwen changed another language, and continued to whisper something like a prophecy.

Nicole looks at Linda suspiciously.

"This is the Elvish language specially designed by the crew, and you will learn it next. Besides, Princess Arwen is trying to cheer up Aragorn, who has been exiled. "After explaining this, Linda said," what do you think of them? "

Nicole whispered, "baby fat, it's obvious."

Linda also smiles and looks at the girl named Charlize Theron. Although the information shows that she is 22 years old, it is true that the obvious baby fat has a great influence on her temperament. Princess Arwen's temperament is very important in her casting. In addition, with Linda's years of casting experience, this girl is not suitable for black hair, it will be a little cool.

Princess Arwen is a half elf with black hair.

The characteristics of the elves should be noble, elegant, intimate and dare not blaspheme.

Let's not talk about the baby fat that can be eliminated by some means in the future. Previously, Charlize Theron, who had seen the golden hair, had a first impression that he was in line with the temperament of an elf. However, today, with his black hair dyed and his make-up audition, he felt somewhat uncoordinated.

At the end of the play, Simon asked Charlize Theron to perform a part by himself. More than ten minutes had passed before he knew it. Finally, Simon and Peter Jackson, sitting in the middle of a row of long tables, didn't comment on anything. They just let them have a rest and murmur together.

Linda Vargas waited a little while, taking advantage of the gap between the two conversations to bring Nicole forward. Simon then found out that Nicole came, said hello, and asked: "how do you feel about La secret?"

Nicole said, "it's not bad. It's a complicated character."

Simon was just being polite. He was too busy to talk to Nicole. He said simply, "go and try your make-up. Peter and I will see the effect later."

Nicole is a real big name now. She has a big temper on the set, but she doesn't dare to show it in front of men. She obediently leaves the audition room and goes to the next room to make up.

Here Simon goes on.

After Charlize Theron, there are two other candidates, Trish Goff and Jennifer Connery.

In addition to the final three, a long list of actresses, such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Mia Sara, UMA Thurman, tried to fight for the role. These were the last three.

The next two auditions each lasted more than half an hour.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Charlize Theron's temperament and acting are the best. Unfortunately, apart from baby fat, the actress has some black hair.

As a model, qusi Gough has great appearance and temperament, and her black hair matches well. The problem is that she doesn't call at all when she stands with Viggo Mortensen, plus a baby face, it even gives people a father daughter feeling.

Jennifer Connery was born with dark hair and was the first to be ruled out after the audition.

It's so beautiful. It's so beautiful that people can play.

Of course, Charlize Theron and Trish Goff are both very beautiful, but if they are still in the 80 division, Jennifer Connery is the one who has passed 90.

I can't help it. Sometimes it's wrong to be too beautiful.

Hollywood actresses want to have a big fire. One of the hidden rules about appearance is that the basic score of facial value is between 70 and 80. This is called "entering, attacking and retreating, defending". It's easy to retreat to 70 or even 60 when you dress up as ugly, and you can go up to 80 or even 90 when you dress up carefully.

The most important thing is that the basic appearance should be approachable and not let people play.

Typical ones are Sandra Bullock, Kate Blanchett, Angelina Jolie, Julian Moore and even the youngest actress ever, Jennifer Lawrence. As for Charlize Theron, who scored more than 80, in order to appear, he even had to disfigure himself in the devil's head, and many subsequent characters also needed to be ugly, such as friosa in Mad Max: the road to fury.All in all, it's very difficult for people outside the 70-80 range to get out.

But then again, Queen galantrel and Princess Arwen in the trilogy of the Lord of the rings are just a few stars who can achieve 80 points or even 90 points after putting on makeup. So is Jennifer Connery. In the final analysis, the reason why she is so beautiful that she does not have enough acting skills.

Finally, Simon and Jackson are arguing between Charlize and Tracy.

Simon is slightly inclined to Tracy Goff, the girl he has trained in recent years. From this man from the earth to the game of the brave, which was sold at the end of last year, not only his career has been steadily improving, but also his acting skills have been improving.

What's more, it has to be said that the elf image in Simon's heart is actually like that of Trish Goff.

Super model body, small features, fair skin.

To be more precise, many Slavic girls raised by Simon in Ukraine are the standard elf templates in Simon's aesthetics.

Therefore, in addition to the fairy maids promised to Elizabeth a few days ago, Simon also made up his mind in private to select a group of Slavic girls from elite and Ukraine to play as elves and form a Chinese supermodel group.

This is a digression.

In the end, Simon and Jackson chose Charlize Theron as their second choice after they listed the conditions of Charlize and Travis.

It's mainly because Trish Goff and Viggo Mortensen don't really call.

If the role of Princess Arwen is as detached as Queen Galadriel, Simon will definitely choose Tracy Goff. But, after all, it's a play or a love play that runs through the trilogy, so he can only choose Charlize, who has the right chemical reaction with Mortensen during the audition.

Since it is so decided, the matter will be announced on the spot.

Charlize Theron got confirmation from Simon. He couldn't help covering his mouth and almost squatted on the floor crying on the spot.

From 1994, when he almost appeared in Paul van Hoven's restrictive "show girls" to now, Charlize has spent more than three years in various small roles. Most of the time, he doubts whether his brief meeting with a big man is a dream, or he may have forgotten himself completely.

Today is finally a good time.

After all, even if she was born in South Africa, Charlize knows the super high popularity of the Lord of the rings series in the West. Moreover, Simon westero, who has never failed since her debut, personally plays in such a blockbuster series. No matter whether the project is successful or not, her reputation will rise a lot, and therefore she will get more opportunities in the future.

Nicole, who has already put on her make-up and put on her costume, also feels a lot about this situation.

The reason why we are willing to take over the role at a low price this time is also due to our experience in recent years. Although a man is not demanding, Nicole has to admit that the opportunity released from his hand can make a humble Hollywood star make a big splash.

Not to mention the Lord of the rings series.

Even if the film pay is very low, Nicole will finally take over. In addition to the opportunity given by someone, she is also more and more aware that many rules in Hollywood are changing rapidly. A big star wants to get the sky high $14 million in film pay just like Marlon Brando in Superman in 1978 with only 10 minutes of supporting role Bonus red is no longer possible.

At least, it's not going to happen to Denise entertainment.

Then we have to face the reality.

The reality is that a young man is basically the rule of Hollywood.

Let the staff take the emotional out of control Charlize to rest. Simon and Jackson turn their attention to Nicole.

Nicole is also a beauty with a basic score of more than 80. At this time, she stands in front of everyone after putting on her make-up. She is queen Galadriel with a score of more than 90. She doesn't even need to audition. The two big men make the same decision without any objection.

The queen and the princess have decided that in the last days of August, Simon and Jackson are busy with other affairs, not only casting, but also two years of publicity planning and detailed planning of the shooting process until the first film is released.

And the budget.

The budget for the trilogy was finally set at $270 million, with an average of 90 million for each, which is the same as it used to be.

Simon didn't give him 300 million yuan directly, which is also a space for Jackson to overspend. After all, he gave him 300 million yuan in the first place, which inevitably made the crew lavish. This is not what Simon wants to see.

And then there's the location.

Compared with New Zealand, the new "Lord of the rings" trilogy will be completely produced in Australia. After all, the scenery in New Zealand is the same as that in Australia, even more magnificent and beautiful. What's more, Denise entertainment also has a full set of film and television industry chain in Australia.

Not only that, but also the drawback factor.

After more than half a year's negotiation, after danielis entertainment gave a marketing plan for China, of course, it was also driven by the influence of westero system in Australia. After danielis entertainment promised that all the trilogy including shooting and post production would be made in Australia, the Australian government finally approved a tax rebate of up to US $50 million.This means that, without overspending, with a budget of $270 million, Denise entertainment only needs to spend $220 million, and the Australian government will pay for the rest. It's only a little more than a movie Titanic made in a pit. Not surprisingly, danelis entertainment can get a classic trilogy series of China and Turkey.
