Chapter 175: 175

Simon made a wait sign to Valerie Gallino, picked up the receiver and said, "Joe, what can I do for you?"

On the other side of the line, Jonathan Friedman has heard that Denise pictures has carried out a surprise drug test on the last ten candidates for the leading role of Batman. He is calling to help intercede.

After listening to Jonathan Friedman patiently, Simon said, "Joe, before the casting, danylis pictures has specially reminded them that if they can't clean up during the casting, I really don't think there's any reason to give them a chance I know this kind of thing is very common in Hollywood, but it's just like this in the world. Those first-line celebrities who have made a success can just walk around between Bedford rehab center and the movie set, and they can go to shoot public service ads for drug treatment, but they can't. They are just small people. Small people should have the consciousness of small people. So, I'm sorry Valerie, she's here, sitting opposite me So, if you have time, goodbye. "

Hang up and Simon looks across at Valerie Gallino.

The Italian actress, with beautiful curly hair and cat like eyes, is only 22 years old, but her acting experience is not simple. Two years ago, Valerie Gallino won the best actress award at the 43rd Venice Film Festival for her Italian film love story.

However, in the original time and space, except for the heroine of rain man, Valerie Gallino did not play in other well-known films, even her famous work love story is only a literary film with low popularity.

Simon also remembers some gossip about Valerie Gallino and Julia Roberts competing for the heroine of "pretty girl". She and Roberts are the last two candidates. The reason why the actress lost the election was that her accent was not up to standard and more information was not known.

Because of her poor development in Hollywood, the actress, who started from a rather high starting point, returned to the European film circle like many European female stars who failed to enter Hollywood.

Across the desk, Valerie Gallino put her hands on the satchel on her knee and waited patiently for the young man to look at herself for a moment. Then she whispered, "Mr. westrow, what can I do for you, please?"

Simon didn't answer, just asked, "have you seen Batman?"

When Simon westero's invitation was suddenly received, neither the agent nor Jonathan Friedman, the company's vice president close to westero, knew why. Valerie Gallino had just been very nervous.

After coming to Hollywood for more than a year, Valerie Gallino has not received many films, but has heard a lot of gossip. There are many big men in the circle who like to call on an actress by talking about work, going to parties and other reasons, and then some things come naturally. She recently appeared in rain man, and Simon westero is said to watch the film every week. He must have noticed himself in the process.

However, after receiving the invitation, Valerie Gallino just hesitated a little, but she came here.

In any case, men like beautiful women, women also like beautiful men. Simon westero, a handsome, talented and young man with a lot of money, can't arouse any disgust from women.

When Simon westroth talked about Batman, Valerie Gallino's original uneasiness was immediately relieved.

It turns out that there's something serious.

It's something Hollywood is looking forward to.

Just, in the heart but inexplicably gave birth to some don't know is disappointed or other what mood.

After a moment's stupefaction, Valerie Gallino felt Simon westero's eyes looking at him. She quickly responded, shook her head honestly and said, "I'm sorry, Mr westero. I haven't seen Batman. I grew up in Italy."

Simon just nodded his head and asked, "do you have any other appointments with you now?"

Valerie Gallino thought of the heroine role in the Polish director Jez skolimovsky's two-year old costume blockbuster "spring of the rapids", which was about to be negotiated recently. She just hesitated a little and shook her head decisively, saying: "No

"Here's the thing," Simon asked no more. "I saw your performance in rain man, and the material from your previous films. It's excellent. So, I'd like to invite you to play the leading role in Batman. What do you think? "

Valerie Gallino thinks of the audition for the leading actor of "Batman" in danielis pictures, and subconsciously asks, "don't you need an audition?"

"As I said, I've seen your performance."

"So, Mr. westlow," Valerie Gallino asked, "what role am I going to play?"

"Catwoman," Simon said, "you know what?"

As a popular anti hero female character in the first issue of Batman that year, Valerie Gallino has heard of some of them although she has never seen comics. Recalling the cat girl message, Valerie Gallino nodded and said, "Selena Kyle.""That's right, Serena Kyle," Simon nodded. "If you're going to play the part, you can read some comics next. However, the information about the origin of the characters in DC Comics is very confusing, so you still need to figure out the role according to my script. "

European actresses are very xenophobic in nature. The development of Hollywood is not easy. Valerie Gallino thought of this young man's miraculous career as a director and did not hesitate to say, "Mr. westero, what's next?"

Simon smiles and says, "do you know why I chose you?"

Valerie Gallino was stunned and shook her head.

"It's important that your acting is good enough, because I want Serena Kyle, the ordinary vase actress, to play well. After watching the sample film of rain man repeatedly, I confirmed that I want you to try this role, because you are younger than cruise and Hoffman, but in the sample film, you show a soothing power close to motherhood, you can calm down the two anxious protagonists. Bruce Wayne in Batman is a character who has experienced childhood trauma. Although he is very powerful, he is only a human after all. He will also be injured in the process of fighting crime and need to be pacified. Therefore, I hope you can keep this kind of emotion in rain man when you shape the role of cat girl. "

Simon then looked at Valerie Gallino, who was still a little girlish on her face, and said, "besides, you are only 22 years old, which is also very important. Selena Kyle is a strong female thief. In the cartoon, she has gymnastics background and is proficient in fighting. If you want to play this role, the actor must accept a certain intensity of physical fitness and fighting training. In this aspect, older actresses are often hard to bear, but it's not a big problem for you. Of course, the process will be very hard. Would you like to

Valerie Gallino didn't hesitate. The chicken pecked at the rice and nodded a few times. She realized that her reaction was too urgent and felt embarrassed.

Simon naturally didn't mind, and then said, "besides, although I like your accent, it's hard for North American audiences to accept Catwoman's Italian accent. So, in the next six months, in addition to physical training, you need to take accent lessons. "

Valerie Gallino showed an unexpected expression this time: "half a year?"

"Yes, half a year," Simon nodded. "That's what I'm going to say right now. If you agree to play, we'll sign a contract before the end of the month. Then, for the next year, you probably won't be able to get another contract."

Hollywood spends a year or two for a role everywhere. Valerie Gallino is quick to understand that the heroine of Simon westero's new film is totally worth the effort, and she can't have other better choices in Hollywood.

"No problem, Mr. westlow," Valerie Gallino nodded quickly, thinking about it. "Can I see the script first?"

"The script is still being revised, and, for the sake of absolute confidentiality, even the leading actor won't see the complete script before shooting," Simon said, shaking his head. "It's not that he doesn't trust you, but in this circle, there will always be people who want to get similar information by any means, and it's hard for you to guard against it."

Valerie Gallino showed an understanding expression, and then some did not know what to say. Her light eyes looked at Simon, and then she dodged. In fact, she really wants to ask about the film payment, but she also knows that it's best for the agent to negotiate this kind of thing.

Simon noticed the change of Valerie Gallino's expression. He just laughed and said, "for the time being, we will contact wma for the next thing. You can go back first."

Valerie Gallino got up, politely came over, shook Simon's hand again, and turned to leave the office. When she came to the parking lot, she still felt like she was dreaming.

Simon westero's new heroine, or "Batman" such a super production.

I got it so easily.

Those female stars in the company who always laugh at their outsider status must be jealous and crazy.

Feeling some uncontrollable excitement all over her body, Valerie Gallino didn't get on the bus immediately, went to the nearby telephone booth and dialed a series of numbers.

It's past the end of the day on the east coast, and the phone is transferred to a Manhattan Hotel, and it reaches the broker smoothly.

When the agent on the east coast heard what she had just said, he was obviously over excited and told her to stay where she was. He flew back from New York immediately.

After hanging up the phone, Valerie Gallino's excitement calmed down a little, but she couldn't help thinking of the situation when she just met Simon westrow.

Inexplicably, there are some regrets.

He said he liked his accent, but he didn't say anything else.

It's a real mystery.

Simon was so busy that he didn't have any other thoughts at all. At the end of his meeting with Valerie Gallino, he rushed to Denise special effects, which had just been reorganized and integrated by the two companies.There are also important arrangements in the evening. Around 5:30, Simon returns to Malibu's mansion.

Inside the villa, Simon shouts a few times after entering the door, but there is no response. After looking for a moment, he finds Janet in the studio near the sea of the villa. The woman is standing by the easel, drawing a new work.

On the canvas is a beautiful blue sea and blue sky, a bit like the Maribu sea view outside the window at this time. However, there is a long revolving staircase between the sea and the sky. On the narrow staircase, there are various strange figures, some climbing up and some diving down, which appears to be hasty and disorderly. Some people are still crashing down the stairs.

Janet has tried many art genres, but her favorite is this weird and weird surrealism style, which is probably the reason for her character.

Simon stood quietly behind the woman without disturbing, and Janet didn't say hello to him. After more than ten minutes, the woman stopped her brush, turned around and asked Simon, "how's it going?"

Simon put his arms around the woman's waist, looked at the painting in front of him, and said, "there is a deep-rooted contradiction in human psychology. People in hell expect heaven, and people in heaven think that hell may be good, so most people spend their time on the road, and they don't hesitate to break their bones."

Janet smiles, pecks Simon's face on her side, takes him out of his arms, and says, "you help me clean up, I'll change."

Because of her rich wealth, Janet has always been the kind of person who firmly enjoys life. Originally, she still had the idea of selling some paintings to earn living expenses. After she was with Simon, she gradually lost her mind and just took it as an interest. Women are now in charge of the Simon & Janet westero foundation, which they founded, and act as Simon's housekeepers.

In the evening, I will attend the media audition of instinct.

There is still a month to go before the release of the film. Generally speaking, it's a little early to hold a trial run at this time. However, the publicity strategy finally discussed by Denise pictures and fox is to use the strong controversy of instinct to arouse public attention and interest in the film.

In the original time and space, "instinct" first appeared in Cannes Film Festival, and caused a strong controversy. But this time, the film was not finished before Cannes, so we can only take this way of preview. Fox specially invited a large number of well-known film critics from the East and west coasts of the United States to Los Angeles to participate in the preview. It is expected that the effect will not be much worse than the Cannes premiere.

The audition starts at seven.

Since Denise pictures owns half the rights of instinct, Simon pays more attention to the film than the popular vulgar novel.

With no intention of changing clothes, Simon helped Janet pack up her painting tools and left the studio.

Janet quickly changed into a light pink dress with a string of pearl necklaces between her white neck, white high heels on her feet and a Kun bag in her hand. When she came out of the cloakroom, the woman handed Simon a folder and said, "the detective company's report on Sophia Fischer just came in the afternoon. A very interesting woman, you can watch it on the road
