The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter 81 The British Director
After finishing the work at hand, Ronan got off work and left the set. Just as he went down to the lobby on the first floor, he saw a blond woman waving towards him.
Hi, Ronan. Katherine Heigl greeted him directly, followed by a bald man: Long time no see.
Ronan responded with a smile: Hello, Catherine.
He knew that the crew of Roswell had resumed filming. He had been busy since getting a call from Katherine Heigl. If he hadn't met her today, he would have forgotten about this woman.
The bald man passed Katherine Heigl and offered his hand: Hello, Mr. Anderson.
Ronan shook hands with him: Hello...
Katherine Heigl introduced: This is my agent, Dean McClain.
The bald man smiled and said, You can just call me Dean. Without going around in circles, he said directly: Two days ago, I saw two documents sent by Shahai Entertainment in the mailroom of William Morris. Reaper and Kingsman, two very interesting projects, so I wanted to talk to you.
After Ronan sent out so many invitations, he finally saw someone respond, and immediately nodded and said, Let's go to my office and talk.
He took the two of them back to the office on the second floor.
Catherine Heigl looked at the office curiously. It was very simple and ordinary, and there seemed to be nothing special about it.
Congratulations on the success of your last movie. She said flatteringly, A movie with a box office of 50 million dollars was born right in front of my eyes. It's unbelievable to think about it.
Ronan said modestly, It's just luck.
Luck is also a manifestation of strength. Caitlin Heigl smiled very brightly: You have to plan two projects this time, which is amazing.
Ronan smiled, but didn't answer.
Dean coughed, reminding Katherine Heigl that enough is enough, this girl has good potential, but unfortunately sometimes she is very speechless.
Mr. Anderson, the story and ideas of the script Death Comes are quite interesting. Dean has limited qualifications in William Morris and is an ordinary agent for the time being, but he also has his own judgment: Director James Huang's ability to direct horror films , has been fully demonstrated in the Human Clearance Project, and I think this project must be successful.
This half-compliment and half-analysis made people feel very comfortable. Ronan smiled confidently and said, Thank you.
Dean glanced at Katherine Heigl, and said: In the information you sent to William Morris, Death Comes needs a heroine, a young, beautiful actress with good acting skills, what do you think of Katherine? ?”
Ronan asked Katherine Heigl: No conflict with the schedule of Roswell?
No. Katherine Heigl replied immediately, Roswell will end filming early next month.
This TV series has filmed a total of 22 episodes so far. According to the news she got, there will be no renewal in the future.
In other words, she needs to find a new job.
Ronan looked at Katherine Heigl. The actress is about 20 years old, about 1.75 meters in metric system, with a graceful temperament and a good figure and appearance.
Just looking at the appearance is really good.
The only bad impression is that the speed of changing faces back and forth was too fast when they first met.
That's nothing, though, as is the case with most of Hollywood, even with himself at times.
I will greet the casting director. Ronan said in a businesslike manner, Let him add Catherine to the audition list.
Hearing this, Katherine Heigl frowned slightly, competing with those young actors? This is not what she wants.
Dean smiled and said, Catherine is a star. Mr. Anderson, a star can't be treated like an ordinary actor, right?
Ronan doesn't care too much about this,
Said: Catherine, you go directly to the final round of auditions. Dean, you go to the casting director Jason tomorrow.
For a person who can play a supporting actress in a sci-fi drama, basic acting skills should not be a problem.
Moreover, participation in the third round of auditions may not necessarily lead to success. It is not only the audition that determines the selection of actors, but also factors such as salary.
Catherine Heigl looked at the agent, as if she wanted the agent to fight for better conditions, Dean shook his head slightly, this is already a good condition.
Is it possible to let the crew negotiate directly without auditioning? She's not Julia Roberts, not at all.
Dean no longer mentioned Katherine Heigl: I read the information of your other project Kingsman Agent, which is very interesting, but there is one thing I don't quite understand. Being the protagonist? This will lose the North American market.”
Ronan's financing couldn't be hidden from those who cared, and said half-truthfully, This is the investor's request.
Dean said with some regret: It's a pity about this subject.
Ronan didn't answer his words, but instead asked, Do you have a suitable actor or director to recommend?
In my personal judgment, if this subject is shot well, it will be very brilliant. Dean said: However, the Arab protagonist is an unstable factor.
He seemed to be very sincere: I do have directors and actors suitable for this subject, but I have to be responsible for the client. If the film is messed up, it will be very bad for my client's future.
Ronan smiled and said, Dean, you underestimate the market consumption power of ethnic minority audiences. More than 65% of the North American box office of Human Purge came from ethnic minority audiences. With a live rating of 7.5 for this film, The Purge would not have been successful without the support of minority audiences.
While speaking, he opened the file cabinet, took out a data file, and handed it to Dean.
Taking it over and flipping through it, Dean frowned slightly. The data came from Cinema, so it is unlikely to be faked.
Ronan continued: The proportion of minority audiences in North American theaters is rising every month, and they will soon grow into a consumption force that cannot be ignored. It is true that the North American box office of this Kingsman may It can’t reach the height of the “Purge of Humanity”, but don’t forget that there are more and more overseas markets, outside of the European and American markets, the ethnicity of the protagonist is not the key.”
Dean looked at the data carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Ronan Anderson was targeted, and the preliminary market research was done quite well.
Ronan asked again: Do you have a suitable director to recommend? I don't want newcomers.
Dean closed the file and said: I have a director client here, a British man, who has participated in the filming of many TV dramas before. Last year, he filmed a romance film. This film won an award at the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival. .”
Romance movies? Ronan frowned.
He said he was best at shooting action movies, but there were too few opportunities to shoot action movies in Europe. Dean continued: So he came to Hollywood.
Ronan nodded slightly: Well, I'll meet and talk with him.
The director of the crew is a two-way choice. If you like me, I may not like you, and vice versa.
Dean thought for a while and said, Okay, I'll bring him over tomorrow.
The credibility of a major Hollywood agency is relatively high. Early the next morning, Dean brought his director client to Ronan's office.
Generally speaking, new Hollywood directors are in their thirties, and there are even quite a few directors in their twenties.
But contrary to Ronan's expectations, what Dean brought was a man who was fifty years old just by his appearance.
The British director has fluffy hair and a stocky figure. The face of an ordinary British man is covered with rough and green stubble. When the serious brows are not tightly locked, deep wrinkles will appear on the forehead. round-rimmed glasses, thick black eyebrows.
Ronan's first impression of this director was not very good, because his appearance is very similar to the European art school.
For a commercial film company owner like him, European artistic directors are terrible.
Let me introduce you. Dean introduced Ronan: This is director Paul Greengrass...
