[US Entertainment] Hollywood reverses life
Chapter 60 60]
Stephanie Meyer, who never dreamed that Hollywood upstart Joy Grant would come to her door to talk to her about the rights to her latest book set.
It can be said that she is very satisfied with being able to sell this set of books to the publishing house, and now there is hope that it will be made into a movie?
oh god!This is simply wonderful!
She concealed her excitement, "Yes, this story originated from a dream I had. I dreamed that I was lying in a golden wheat field with a handsome boy behind me, and then this "Twilight" was published. I wrote it."
Joy smiled at her, "You must not know what a great dream you had."
A dream of this Stephanie Meyer has created a set of novels that almost surpassed "Harry Potter" in sales and almost became the best-selling novel in the world.
One of her dreams has created the "Twilight Saga" series of films that generally exist as box office harvesters around the world. series, "Batman" series, "Spiderman" series and other blockbuster movies...
Yes, all this miracle, just because of a dream of this lady...
And now, Joey has bought the movie copyright of "Twilight".
It didn't take too much eloquence, because this novel will be released next month. Although it will sell well in the future, the author is currently a newcomer, and no one would have thought that the future series of "Twilight" movies would be popular in Hollywood. Walking sideways for a whole year...
Joy bought out the film copyright of "Twilight", thanks to the fact that she was reborn from the future. Now that there is a problem in front of her, it is to create a United American film within a year. If there is a box office hit series that the industry can't refuse, it's the easiest way to choose a movie that she remembers as a box office legend.
She has also considered writing a script by herself, but due to time constraints, the film will be released at the end of the year, and she cannot guarantee that a script that can create a miracle at the box office will be released within 1-2 months.After all, she had never conceived a similar movie script before.It will take a long time to rethink.
She doesn't have that much time right now.
So after much deliberation, she still decided to choose "Twilight", buy out its movie copyright, and then shoot this movie.According to the memories of previous lives, this series of movies, which has grossed 25 billion US dollars in box office worldwide, will lead the entire Hollywood into a new era-that is, a new era in which teenagers and women's films become the main force at the box office.
Four parts (there are six in total), one series, and a box office of 25 billion US dollars, which will shake the value of the entire Hollywood!
She wants to use this as a bargaining chip to join Lianmei, and she will never give all of such amazing box office revenue to Lianmei. As for how to share with Lianmei, we will see it later.
And just after Joy announced the news that the new movie was about to start, she also officially announced the start of the casting process.
Joey Grant's casting for the new movie is sensational!
After all, this is the new film of the talented director Joey, and everyone wants to be in it, so Joey received countless resumes in just a few days.
She threw a bunch of resumes on the table and looked at Hughes, shook her head and sighed, "Brother, have you heard my needs clearly?"
Hughes rested his legs leisurely, biting a cigar, and looked at her with a serious look, "Is there any problem?"
"Naomi Watts? Angelina Jolie? Milla Jovovich? Brother, I remember I said I was looking for a girly young actress... Where do you think Angelina Jolie is girly? Already? Naomi Watts is beautiful, but her age doesn’t match... Milla Jovovich, this beauty’s image is more in line with a Valkyrie!"
Then Joey excitedly flipped through a few more resumes and stared at Hughes, "And these, those, everything is wrong!" There were photos of Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman, etc. on the resumes.
Hughes looked scornful, "These I found are what others can't ask for. They are all A-LIST members. Now you despise this one and that one."
He smacked out the cigarette butt and threw down the cigar, "I don't think you have made your needs clear at all. You should have said from the very beginning, you don't want big names, you want younger girls."
Joey covered his temples with his hands, and compromised: "Okay, you are right, now I tell you clearly, what I want is a young girl! A young girl!"
Hughes rolled up the shirt cuffs exposed under the suit on his wrist very professionally, then reorganized the materials in his hand, and took out another stack of materials, "OK, calm down, look at these now, you want tender sister."
Joey opened the file and began to look at ten lines at a glance. The ones in front of him were——Anne Hathaway, Lindsay Lohan, Hilary Duff, Miley Cyrus, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Porter Man...wait.
Joey closed his eyes at once, took a deep breath and closed the folder, "No, nothing is right, there is nothing I want."
Hughes walked behind Joey, put his hand on her shoulder lightly, and comforted her in a very gentle tone: "Okay, Joey, take a deep breath, calm down, and think about it again, what else do you need?" ?I know you're getting a little impatient, maybe let's get a cup of coffee first?"
Joey rolled his eyes playfully at him, "I'm not that bad."
Hughes suddenly had the same playful smile on his lips, "I think so too. After all, you even have the courage to admit that the plane shook in front of millions of viewers, and you still can't handle it well?"
Joey grabbed his arm and took his hand away, "You bastard."
Hughes laughed and stepped aside, sat down opposite her, "Do you remember that day? It made you so impressed, huh?"
Joey pursed his lips and looked at him contemptuously for a while, then suddenly looked at him with a smile on his face, "Yes, our mighty Mr. Redstone, you are always so impressive."
"Then let's try another plane this time?" He looked at her with cat-like eyes.
"Fuck off!"
Joey went out of the room to drink a cup of coffee outside, and then returned to the room, Hughes sat under the windowsill and opened the window to bask in the sun leisurely.
She walked over and turned his chair to face herself, "I've thought it through, OK, I'll tell you what kind of heroine I want now, I want a delicate young girl in a vase."
Hughes picked up a pen and tapped the paper a few times, "This requirement is easy to meet, aren't the ones I showed you all?"
Joey took out his pen and twirled it around his fingertips, "Not tender enough. Whether it's Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway, or Natalie Portman, none of them are tender enough."
Hughes looked at her mockingly, "Then you plan to go to kindergarten to find one?"
Joey sneered, "I'll tell you a few candidates, you can contact me for me."
Hughes raised his head under the soft sunlight and looked at her with a smile, "It's all yours."
Joey said: "The British girl in "Harry Potter", Emma Walson. I can still think of others, so you can find me according to this standard."
Hughes said with some sly sarcasm, "It really meets your requirements, a delicate face."
Joey nodded, "The ones you are looking for are all capable young actresses, or big-name veteran actresses, but I don't need any strength or big names. This is a small-budget commercial film. It doesn't matter if your acting skills are loose, but It must meet the kind of temperament and refinement I want. I have also considered the very powerful newcomer Emma Stone I discovered on Broadway, but no, she can perform the temperament of a female dick, but not The delicate temperament of a princess, so she is suitable for "La La Land" but not for "Twilight Saga."
Every actor has his own temperament, just like Emma Watson can't play a female princess, Emma Stone can't play a noble princess, Meg Ryan can't play a cold female killer, Cate Blanchett can't play No sunny role.
If they really subvert themselves and do it, then the Oscars will not be far away.
Hughes got up and put his hands in the pockets of his suit pants, "Okay, it's her, if she is willing, don't waste time looking for someone else, I know yours, you told me an accurate People, it means you only want her. So what about the male lead?"
Joey circled a few people with a red marker on the information, "Let these people audition."
Andrew Garfield, Henry Cavill, Chris Evans, Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Hemsworth.
Hughes was stunned, "That's all? Are you determined to use newcomers? How can you embarrass those big names who are waiting to audition?"
Indeed, there are quite a few big names who want to audition for "The Twilight Saga", at least to say a few names are enough to scare you to death!
You must have never imagined that Johnny Depp also intends to play Twilight Man!
You must not have imagined that Brad Pitt wanted to play a vampire for the second time!
You must not have imagined that even George Clooney gave Joey an olive branch!
You must have never imagined that Joey also saw the rising star Robert Downey Jr. in the list of actors!
You must have never imagined that even Keanu Reeves took the initiative to ask for an audition. It seems that he also wants to rejuvenate!
You must have guessed that Will Smith said that if vampires can change their skin color, he is also interested!
You must have never imagined that after hearing about Joey's new film project, many big names who are usually on top of each other secretly contacted him in private!
But facing the dazzling array of male big names, she is as numb as Joy saw those female big names before. She is really numb to big names. She pulls the box office.
Joey shook his head vigorously, "I didn't expect that one day I would be so favored by these big-name actors. Some actors and actresses are still members of Hollywood's 2000 million club. But I can't hire actors and actresses in the 2000 million club." , If I ask them, I need to pay more, because the real meaning of the 2000 million club is 2000 million salary + 20% share, I can't afford that much money."
Hughes corrected her with a smile, "The 2000 million club is already an outdated concept. Now is the era of blockbuster movies, not the age of stars. No studio would be foolish enough to give 2000 million yuan plus 20% of the salary."
Joey glanced at him, "Of course I know, I'm just giving you an example. When Hollywood had the concept of the 2000 million club, Mel Gibson and Jim Carrey were still panaceas for the box office. Now it's gone. The 2000 million club This concept has ended with the end of the star era. The creator of this concept is Tom Cruise. The last beneficiary should be Johnny Depp. After him, no one can get this High."
Hughes lit a cigarette, "That's right, even the big-name stars now basically agree to share with the film studio, that is, get a part of the salary that is not too much, and then agree on a share, basically like this, But I know that you are definitely not willing to give such a form, because your movie is likely to be a blockbuster at the box office, and a lot of profits will be distributed to the stars, and you will not be willing."
Joey nodded, "That's right, because the success of my film itself does not depend on stars, and I am naturally unwilling to give them too much profit, so I prefer newcomers or young people in the second and third tiers."
"So, Andrew Garfield, Henry Cavill, Chris Evans, Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Hemsworth, among these young people, do you have your fancy? Knowing you, you must have your own direction."
Joey smiled mysteriously, "That's right, there is a young man among them who once left a very good impression on me. In a bar, everyone laughed at me behind my back, but he came out to apologize to me, so I don't care. Unexpectedly, I really want to use him."
"Look," Hughes said with a sneer at the end, "It can be seen how important daily etiquette is. That young boy's unintentional kindness unexpectedly met the noble person he was destined for."
Henry Cavill, Joey always remembers him.
Even when many big-name male stars are willing to cooperate with her, she still wants to choose him.Because his upbringing left a good impression on her.And successfully let him break through the siege among many big-name movie stars and won Joey's favor.
And his appearance is very in line with Joey's aesthetics and the characters in the movie.
She asked him to audition, and if nothing else happened, she would use him.
Many years later, when people were summarizing the past of those popular Hollywood movie stars, they discovered that Joy was a lucky person, whoever met her, whoever got her favor, would be able to rise to the top.
