Chapter 1788 1788 Actor List
Hugo always thought that his villa occupied a large area and even seemed a little empty, and he didn't like this feeling very much. Therefore, Hugo always welcomed friends to come and visit, and the empty space became lively, so he felt like home. Sometimes Alex and Leonardo and others finished their work, so they just came to him for vacation and were reluctant to leave for several months.
But today, Hugo finally felt that the villa was not as big as expected and even seemed a little crowded.
More than 400 people flocked into the villa, but the first floor was obviously not enough to fit. Some people went to the jacuzzi on the third floor, where there were high-rise golf, pool tables and mobile bars; some people went to the private beach below to light a bonfire, and it seemed that some people started swimming at night; some people had already been transferred to the open-air swimming pool on the first floor and had a lot of fun... Even so, Hugo still felt that there were people everywhere in his sight.
For the first time, I really felt that all the spaces in the villa were used for the full use.
"I can imagine that you have difficulty cleaning the villa tomorrow. No wonder others say that rich people are squandering." A calm voice called back Hugo's thoughts. Turning back, he saw Kevin Spacey's face of teasing and joking.
Hugo chuckled, "Then is it considered to be together to enjoy such beautiful scenery with me?" At this time, Hugo was sitting on the balcony on the second floor, surrounded by noisy noises, but there were not many people here, like a place outside, becoming the only paradise in the whole party.
"It's because I want to squander that so many people want to enter this circle, right?" The answer was not Kevin, but Curtis Hansen, who was sitting on the other side. The director in his fifties was holding a glass of whiskey in his hand and gently shaking the tartar in his cup, looking very relaxed.
Hugo raised his eyebrows and showed a surprised expression, "I thought the dream of acting is." This sarcastic statement made the people around him laugh.
"When it comes to dreams," Curtis then remembered something and turned his head, "Hugo, your assistant brought a young man over here just now and said he was here to audition."
"Yes, that character Matt Reynolds." Heath Roger was said, and Hugo nodded, "What do you think?"
"I asked him to perform a casual part on the spot. What did he do?" Curtis kept it aside, looked at everyone around him, and everyone looked at curiously. Then he said, "He performed a short undressing dance. I mean, he really started to take off his clothes in front of me."
"Hahahaha." Everyone burst into laughter. Hugo laughed the happiestly. Although he had long expected that Heath was a very bold and unrestrained actor, Hugo was surprised by such a performance.
"I deliberately didn't stop him. Cruise was standing not far away, and Lucas was also next to me. I was like seeing how he would end in the end." Curtis hid in the darkness, unable to see his facial expressions clearly, but he could clearly feel the excitement in his tone. This time he didn't keep it a secret. "He danced a dance, took off his shirt and pants, and finally he jumped directly into the swimming pool. God, you really should be there, everyone around him applauded."
He is bold but not lost his intelligence. Even if he digs a hole for himself, he also thinks about a way out, dares to act and be brave and has talent. In fact, long before Heath entered Hollywood, he was destined to have a sky that belongs to him.
"If I told you, I just gave him a little reminder that this character is a Hollywood actor who knows how to cooperate. What would you think?" Hugo added, telling Samora some simple information about the role of Matt Reynolds, which was to see how Heath would perform. Now it seems that Heath's audition is far beyond imagination.
Kevin couldn't help but sigh, "Wow, he is much smarter than me, and this talent is very rare." Although Hollywood has never lacked geniuses, he still admires it every time he sees geniuses.
"So what do you think?" Hugo looked at Curtis. Although he did not witness it with his own eyes, he was still very satisfied with Heath after listening to Curtis' description.
Curtis did not answer directly, but raised the cup in his hand and gently hit the cup wall with the tar stone. "Congratulations on finding a good seedling. I just saw that Carl Earl had gone to talk to him." This was the nodding of agreement.
There are three producers of the film "Los Angeles Secret", one is Curtis, who serves as a screenwriter and director, one is Hugo, and the other is David L. Wolper, the official representative of Warner Bros. However, David is mainly responsible for cost control, and he will not interfere in the film production related work. So he did not participate in the casting discussion tonight.
In other words, most of the work of film production will fall on Curtis and Hugo. Curtis put his posture very low because he clearly knows who is the one who really takes the initiative in this collaboration. What's more, Hugo has been very professional so he has no reason to refute it.
"So, I'm not the first actor to be confirmed?" Kevin's clever words made everyone laugh.
Kevin Becken, who was sitting aside, also interrupted at this time, "At least I am the first actor to be excluded." Kevin and Hugo are also old friends. They have been in a relationship for more than ten years. Although they don't talk a lot and don't usually have many contacts, they are very happy every time they meet. Even if the two are in a hostile agency, they have not affected their relationship.
Originally, Hugo wanted to invite Kevin Bacon to participate in the production of "Los Angeles City Secret". Curtis, who had previously worked with Bacon to "Wild River" and agreed with him, but his movements were slower. Bacon has signed a contract with the crew of "Pure Fiction" and will work with Jennifer Aniston to film.
"If you want, come and play a corpse." Hugo said solemnly, but Kevin Becken stood up in anger, "I refuse to accept the dictator's alms, and I decided to go downstairs to enjoy this ** night." After saying that, he muttered, "I saw caviar just now..." and left the balcony in anger, which made everyone laugh.
Kevin Spacey spoke again and said, "I heard you have a list of actors you want to work with?"
"Yes, you're the first pick in that." Hugo gave affirmation, which made Kevin raise his hands and then make a promising worship gesture. "I think my year has been fulfilled." Hugo laughed, "There are three characters here, you can choose first."
Kevin looked calm, "I'm actually even more curious about the names on the list."
"It should be found on the Actors Union's notice board." Hugo replied with a smile. In fact, most of the actors who want to cooperate with are familiar names, such as Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, Daniel Day Lewis, Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman, etc. However, these people are all top brands, and everyone has different opinions on choosing works. It is not easy to gather in the same work.
"So, Hugo, haven't you decided which role you want to play?" Screenwriter Brian Helgrand, who was sitting next to him, interrupted the joke between Hugo and Kevin, and directly shifted the topic to the point.
Hugo didn't joke anymore, but thought about it seriously, "Actually, I personally prefer the role of Ed."
This is the result of Hugo's careful consideration. The three characters in "Los Angeles City Secret" have distinctive characteristics.
Jack can be said to be elegant and cunning, and can be said to be a smart man. He knows how to use his advantages to seek benefits, and knows how to stop at the right time and never meddling in other people's business; Ed is treacherous and cold-blooded, with an ambitious idea that has no concealed at all, but in fact, he hides real secrets in his heart. The contradiction between justice and revenge makes him wander on the edge of the boundary; Bard is selfless, upright and righteous, and practices himself, but lacks some intelligence and talent. He rushes around with a innocent heart, which is considered a clear stream in the dark story background.
Among the three characters, Hugo and Kevin are obviously not suitable for Bud, because in the original story, "Bad is the biggest guy in the entire police station" and is a character with a force value greater than a brain power value. This means that the two people must make a choice among the two characters Jack and Ed.
Jack is calm and restrained, gentle and elegant. His definition of justice and evil is relatively vague, but at least he has controlled the moral bottom line. This character Hugo has never challenged this before. Similarly, Hugo, a character like Ed, has never appeared. Ed looks gentle on the surface, but is like a fox. His elegance is not as fond as Jack, but makes everyone disgusted and rejected. He is an absolute traitor when he appears. But as the story progresses, the character Ed digs out bit by bit. The inner contradictions and conflicts, the driving reasons for his actions, and the struggles and pains he still experiences make the character fuller bit by bit.
It can be said that Jack and Ed are both characters with very conflicts and conflicts, but roles like Jack are actually somewhat similar to "Yihai Xiongfeng". Although there are many differences in character creation and sculpture, they still have the same end. Both characters choose to uphold justice. However, Ed's strange and perverted character is something that Hugo has never tried. It is a completely different challenge from "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death-infernal Affairs".
So, after thinking, Hugo chose Ed.
