Chapter 2102 Change of Face
He wanted to know what kind of script An Ran had prepared for him.
While everyone was taking a break, Cage asked, "Boss, I want to know how you are preparing for your new script!"
"Of course I'm not questioning you, nor am I doubting you! You know, I haven't acted in a normal movie for a long time. I'm looking forward to it!"
An Ran couldn't help but laugh, "You are really anxious!"
Cage smiled bitterly, can you not be anxious?
After all, after more than ten years of acting in bad movies, he desperately longed for a normal movie in which he starred.
He even wants to get rid of his nickname of the King of Bad Movies. This thing is definitely not a good experience.
As a former king, he also has his own pride.
It turns out that he would never take someone like Mai Si seriously.
Now, people will still look at him. What does it mean to be bullied by a dog when a tiger falls in peace? This is vividly reflected in him.
Without Enron, it would have been very difficult for him to turn around.
So now he is eager to know what kind of script An Ran claims will make him famous.
An Ran looked at Cage's endless explanations and smiled: "It's okay, I understand your mood. I plan to show a different you in this movie!"
"What kind of me?" Cage wondered.
"Didn't you film a film called "Face Changing"?"
Cage nodded, that was his peak work, in which good and evil were transformed.
It tells the story of a criminal who changed faces with a policeman and became a policeman.
When he was a policeman, he used his own criminal methods to continuously solve crimes, thus winning awards from his superiors and recognition from his colleagues.
In the end, he almost forgot that he was a criminal and indulged in his identity as a policeman.
Until the end, it was his biological brother who was fighting against him.
It was then that he remembered that he was once a criminal...
In this movie, Cage vividly interprets the inner conflict between identities, making the audience feel heartbroken.
Many viewers are very conflicted.
I not only hope that he will be brought to justice, but also hope that he can continue to be a policeman.
After all, the original policeman was not a good policeman, on the contrary, he was very inhumane.
The film was a huge success after its release, causing Cage's reputation to grow explosively and ushering in the peak of his career.
This movie is certainly due to its excellent script, but it also tested Cage's acting skills. The two can be said to complement each other, but it is the director who has not been mentioned by many people.
Cage doesn’t know what An Ran means by mentioning this movie.
An Ran said: "My new work is called "Face Changing"! The story is also about identity transformation. You were originally a fierce gangster, but your face was changed. Although you have the face of a gangster, you have the heart of a policeman... Of course, this movie The movie is different from the previous one, you will have a good result..."
Cage opened his mouth wide after hearing this.
You are making a fool of yourself.
After "Face Changing" came out that year, it caused a sensation and became the tenth highest-grossing film that year.
This kind of extremely popular movie will of course attract other competitors to imitate it, but the effect will be very disastrous.
Good scripts are not easy to find, and this kind of imagination is not easy to imitate.
More importantly, Cage's performance in it is irreplaceable.
So this movie becomes unique because no one can imitate it.
Cage said uneasily: "Boss, could this be... could it be a little too hasty!"
Although twenty years have passed since "Face Changing", it is still unknown whether the audience will buy it.
An Ran said: "Do you think I'm making a fool of myself?"
Cage explained: "I didn't mean that. I just thought it would make the audience feel that you were perfunctory... Okay, okay, I think it's right to use the word "fried rice" to describe it! p>
An Ran smiled and patted his thick shoulder, "The movie "Face Changing" was successful, but it did not fully tap the potential of this kind of movie!"
Cage said: "I don't quite understand what you mean. That movie was pretty good back then."
"Of course, but have you ever thought about the multiple identity changes of the character you play!"
"You start out as a bad guy, and then you are still a bad guy, but you already have a good heart! Moreover, you have an opponent. He starts out as a good guy, and then turns out to be a good guy, but he has a devil's heart!"
"What? There are still opponents?"
Cage was stunned for a moment. As an actor who has been in the industry for more than 30 years, Cage's mind started spinning quickly.
If there are two roles, they can be interchanged, and there can be countless combinations.
With a well-matched opponent, the drama won't be so monotonous.
He knew very well about the original "Face Changing". Although the movie was very successful and had a good box office reputation.
But the inner core is just that he is performing and contradicting alone. The emotional conflicts and personality conflicts between thief and soldier are all done by him alone.
Fortunately, the director handled it more skillfully. Doing bad things is for money, but doing good things is for satisfaction.
But now compared with Enron's idea, it is much worse.
This is a duel between two heroes.
Both people... changed their faces.
Cage was silent, his eyes flickering, and he could almost imagine the wonderful scenes inside.
An Ran looked at him, took out a script from behind, stuffed it into his hand, and patted it gently, "I have already written the script. Please read it carefully. I think you will be satisfied with this movie. You
He is a good guy and a bad guy! And the same goes for your opponent! He is a good guy and a bad guy!"
"Of course, who is a good person at heart is still a good person, and who is a bad person at heart is still a bad person! This cannot be changed. I don't want to be as holy as the director of "Face Changing"! Bad people will die in the end, and good people should have their own good results.
”
This is Enron’s simplest worldview and emotion.
You cannot do bad things all your life and do a few good things to make up for the harm you have caused to others.
Cage picked up the script and couldn't wait to read it.
As soon as he read the first page, Cage praised it several times in succession.
My hands started to shake with excitement.
"Boss, I think this is the best script I have ever read! I can't wait to play the role in it!" He said excitedly: "When will the filming start?"
An Ran smiled and said: "It's okay to start filming, but before you do that, you have to get someone, who is your partner to act opposite you."
"Who?"
"Travolta!"
Travolta...
That guy?
Cage and Travolta haven't worked together much, but this guy is a well-known professional villain in Xizhou.
And Travolta is also the only actor who has entered the ranks of kings by playing villains.
