Chapter 572 The Lucky Unlucky One

The truck driver drank a bottle of wine and took another bottle, "You must know this father and son. It is Robert Downey. His son was arrested for taking drugs in 97 and he was detoxified. Although he doesn't smoke much now, he has been forgotten in Hollywood. You also know that the entertainment industry is a place where newcomers laugh and old ones don't cry. An actor's career life is very short. Looking for me, wanting me to help his idiotic son, eh, to be honest, Heaven, I really don’t want to help, I asked other screenwriters before you, and after hearing that Robert Downey was going to be the protagonist, all of them shied away.”

Cut, the latter sentence is absolutely fart, Xiao Tian doesn’t believe a word, most Hollywood directors at the level of James Cameron, although not to mention being a grandfather, at least they will never refuse, because this is their chance to become famous, the career life of a screenwriter is very long, but if you don’t become famous as soon as possible, it will be difficult to get out.

Robert Downey Jr. is a good actor, but not a good person, so Xiao Tian doesn't believe that he has quit drugs, because in the historical space, he only completely quit drugs in 05, and he still showed signs of relapse in the past few years, so it is very dangerous for a crew to have an addict who flares up at any time, but James Cameron has begged him, and his friendship with the other party is not a day or two. It is conceivable that the favor owed by the truck driver is definitely not an ordinary favor.

But what does Robert Downey Jr. play, 'Robert Downey has no requirements for the script. "

There are actually countless classic scripts in Xiao Tian's mind, but it is because he is lazy, unlike when he was young, he had the pressure to survive. Now, with the profits of Google and Yahoo, Xiao Tian regards Wen Chao Gong as a way to earn reputation.

"No, that guy is currently a street rat. Although no one calls for a beating, he will definitely not ask for anything else. Some acting is good."

There is no requirement, so it's easy to handle, "Then do you want a commercial film or a literary film for this movie?"

The reason why the truck driver didn't find another screenwriter was because this guy was difficult to serve, and his requirements for the script were not generally high, so except for himself, the time traveler, ordinary screenwriters couldn't do it at all.

"Well, a lot of news now says that I only spend money, and the awards I win are all made by spending money, so I want you to write a literary film for me this time, and I want to use reality to slap those bitches in the face."

It turned out to be like this, Xiao Tian opened the bookcase and took out a folder and threw it to the truck driver, "Here, since it is a literary film and it can win awards, there is nothing more suitable than this film."

The truck driver took the book, which was simply called "The Pianist". The background of this film and "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" was both during World War II.

The truck driver looked at it roughly, "Yes, this book is okay, and there is not much room for spending money, but I don't think Robert Downey is suitable for this actor."

Actor?Xiao Tian smiled, "When did I say to let him be the leading actor? If he were to be the leading actor in this film, he would definitely hit the market, because his temperament is completely incompatible with this leading role. I need an actor with a literary and artistic atmosphere to play the leading actor in this film. I have already decided on the candidate. You can just arrange him to audition. As for the remaining roles of Rupert Downey, you can just choose one for him. He has just recovered from drugs.

Xiao Tian's words made the truck driver not know what to say, but this book did meet his requirements, "What's the male lead's name."

"Adrien Brody, this is a young actor. He starred in "King of the Hill" before, like Robert Downey Jr., and started working in Hollywood at a very young age."

Adrien Brody.The truck driver remembered this name. To be honest, this name was really unfamiliar to Cameron, but Xiao Tian seemed to have never lost sight of it. Too many people have won popularity in the hands of this guy.

The truck driver took the script and left directly, regardless of the early morning outside, this guy is really a lunatic.

Robert Downey was waiting for news from Cameron at home. Although Robert Downey Jr. started to quit drugs, his drug addiction would still relapse. But as an actor, he couldn’t leave the big screen for such a long time. If he completely quit his drug addiction, perhaps the audience and movie fans would have forgotten about him.

"Is James Cameron really okay, father, I'm really eager to act now."

Rupert Downey looked at his son. This guy was restless when he was a child, but he never thought that he would become addicted to drugs. Robert Downey regretted bringing his son into this circle. With his own capital, even if he didn't enter the entertainment industry, he could live well in other industries.Of course, this experience cannot be said to be without benefits, at least my son has grown a lot compared to before.

The reason why Xiao Tian took this book was because he took a fancy to Robert Downey Jr.'s unwillingness to admit defeat. Apart from Adrien Brody, the other characters in this movie in the historical space really don't have the slightest bright spot.The road is made step by step. Although I have many notebooks of the protagonist in my hand, it is not suitable for the current Robert Downey Jr. After all, he is not the Tony Stoker of the pinnacle.He's just an outdated actor who needs to prove himself after he recovers from drugs.

The truck driver came to Robert Downey's house early the next morning, and handed the script to the other party, "This is the script I got. Take a look at these characters."

Robert Downey Jr. took a look at his father, and sure enough, it is good to have connections. The script came up casually, but the smile on Robert Downey Jr.’s face disappeared after reading the script, because these fears were all supporting roles, not the protagonists.

Cameron was not angry, "This is what the screenwriter meant. Your temperament does not match the protagonist. I have seen these supporting roles and they all have their own characteristics. You have a look, choose one for me, and then think about it carefully. I want to use this movie to slap me in the face. Don't lose the chain, you boy. You are no different from a newcomer actor now. You have disappeared for a few years, and everyone has long forgotten you, so this movie is very important to you.

After listening to what James Cameron said, Robert Downey Jr. breathed a sigh of relief, yes, he is no different from a rookie actor now, so he has no right to be picky, but which bastard like a screenwriter actually said that he is not suitable for a leading actor, damn it, he is just down and out, and he is better than those guys who rush to the street.

Looking at the script writer's signature, Robert Downey Jr. was silent. Although he was a second-generation star, compared with the current Xiao Tian, ​​there was still a gap. However, the actors he liked seemed to have risen. If he didn't talk about it, he would say Ralph Fiennes, an Englishman. Who knew him before the filming of "Schindler's List". As a result, he was recommended by Xiao Tian to the crew and became a hit, and he was also crowned actor. Fiennes was not the first one, because there was May before him It can be said that Xiao Tian is a veritable golden toucher, so he must seize this opportunity.

Robert Downey Jr. is gaining momentum, while the other protagonist has suffered a career crisis at this time.

"What? Paul Rafty said that I'm not suitable for the role of Sam. He didn't say that before. Can you tell me who will replace me?" Adrien Brody was on the phone with his agent. He went to audition on the crew of "Bread and Roses" before. I still like this literary film. I really like making movies and tried many different roles, but this time the role was snatched, bastard. Come grab, Adrien Brody forced himself to calm down.

He hung up the phone and lay on the bed. He has been in Hollywood since he was very young. Because his mother is a photographer, he has liked to express himself in front of the camera since he was a child. He can do anything to play a good role. "King of the Hill" is a new starting point in his acting career. But after that movie, he has never received a good book. In fact, he has lived a normal life these years. I only took one movie last year.

The phone rang suddenly at this moment, and Adrien Brody picked it up, "Hi, it's Adrien Brody, I'm James Cameron, I have a character here, can you try it out?"

After the truck driver learned about the name Adrien Brody from Xiao Tian, ​​he did a lot of investigations. This guy is the same type of guy as Tom Cruise, and he exists for the sake of acting. This is something that many actors he has worked with cannot do, such as Leonardo DiCaprio.

James Cameron called himself to audition, oh my god, this was crazy, and it took 1 minute for Adrien Brody to calm down, "I'm happy, James, I'm going to the crew now, where are you?"

Shit, Paul Rafferty, you idiot, go eat shit, I'm going to the truck driver's set, you just kneel on the ground begging me, I won't go.

Because "The Sound of the Piano" is Xiao Tian's book, although it is a literary film, it has also attracted the attention of many film companies. Universal, which has a good relationship with DreamWorks, wanted to co-produce it. DreamWorks also did not refuse this time.

Under Xiao Tian's influence, Dreamworks' development was much better than in the historical space, and it did not go down the road of destruction because it was squeezed out by other film companies.Who said that Hollywood screenwriters are rubbish, it is because of your creative rubbish, if you can lead the trend, no film company would dare to underestimate you.

In the crew of "Bread and Roses", George Clooney got the role of Adrien Brody. This guy is the most unique existence in Hollywood. He actually wanted to become a politician like Schwarzenegger when he made the film.

'Paul, this is the most correct choice for you. It is much better for you to use me than that little actor, and you will definitely not regret it. "George Clooney is very proud, what he likes most is to use this method to grab roles, and ordinary Hollywood screenwriters will give themselves face.

"Paul, I just received news that Adrien Brody has auditioned for James Cameron's crew, and Truck Driver is also a literary film."

James Cameron and George Clooney are very puzzled. Adrien Brody's background has been investigated clearly. Apart from a mother who is a photographer, he has no other background at all. How did this street guy get into James Cameron's sight? Damn, he is not reconciled.

A feeling of regret arose in Paul Rafty's heart. George Clooney, the second-generation star, is not very short of money. Acting is purely for fun rather than career. It is precisely because of this that it is impossible for him to be as dedicated as an ordinary actor.

"Go and arrange it. I'm also going to audition for that movie, Adrien Brody. I will never let your ears go up."

Nima, what should I do with my crew? Paul Rafferty regretted it very much, but George Clooney didn't care about him at all, and walked away. Paul Rafferty grabbed George Clooney's agent, who took out a check from his briefcase, "Here, this is liquidated damages. You can find another actor."

Paul Rafty really wanted to slap this nasty agent in the face, but he held back because he really needed the liquidated damages to recruit an actor.
