Chapter 608: Flattering the FBI

As for the hero of the sequel, Song Ya saw a name on the candidate list of the hero of the cat and mouse game, Jared Leto.

"Why is this kid everywhere?" Song Ya complained.

"His TV series was cut, and now he's attacking everywhere." Eremov laughed.

Song Ya knows that this person is currently considered popular, so what does it matter if the show is gone? Handsome male stars all have this past, at least he has established himself as the idol Xiao Xianrou in the hearts of young girls in Quanmi. Back then, Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, and Keanu Reeves were all like this Come over, "But he's very popular, right? Would you like to play a sequel to a youth musical?"

"He is the most popular among all the male and female audition actors. If he can get him at a low price, Universal will definitely change the age of the male and female lead. So now he is the central figure who can determine the direction of the casting. What do you think? Boss. asked Yeremov: "He's a good ballet dancer."

The casting of a movie is sometimes script-first, and actors are used in the script description; Producers are given priority. Sometimes they are so strong that they can let whoever they want to play, such as Song Ya herself who insisted on choosing Amy in the first part of my life.

In short, unless it is a major project, the attitude of the producers at the initial stage will change a lot. Sinberg thinks that it is better to make an eighth to tenth grade film for a lower age group, but if there is a star with a good box office appeal Joining, he was also happy to ask the screenwriter to revise the script. It happened that the director Stephen Gyllenhaal was not strong, and Song Ya didn't want to point fingers.

"I think you've misunderstood, boss."

Hayden said with a smile: "The global box office of the first movie in my life was more than 130 million, which is better than the same production cost of the detective plane head. Isn't it because of that movie that Jim Carrey got so many opportunities in the future?" It's just because there are too many strong films in the same period, their box office is better than ours, and their film reviews are better than ours... Our limelight is temporarily overshadowed, and Hollywood's response has lagged a bit. With all of my agents in the back of their minds and eyes on this sequel, it's no surprise that Jared Leto wants to be in."

"You also want Simberg to choose him, right?" Amy is also under Hayden's banner, "In this way, the heroine can use Amy who is a step older." Song Ya asked.

"Yes, if you don't act, then it's best to change the male lead in the sequel, and the plot continuity of the two films will be much stronger." Hayden said: "The big deal is that at the beginning of the script, your role in the first film is written as a career-oriented one." It's just a mess... well I'm kidding."

He found that Song Ya started to stare at him and raised his hands in surrender.

"In any case, this matter will be decided soon. The first round of auditions will be held before the end of the year. Before January next year, the male lead and female lead must be selected. The dancers, choreography, etc. can be done first. It's okay if the script is later, anyway. The dance scenes will be filmed first," Yeremov said.

It's normal for a movie to change and change. It's not surprising that halfway through filming, it's overturned and restarted. There are also remakes that are suddenly postponed and remade near the release date. It is true that the film industry is an industry, but after all, it is a group of artists who work together. Even Hollywood cannot manage every project with complete precision.

So the Dancing Out of My Life sequel project is changing, and the cat and mouse game project is also changing.

"Matthew McConaughey will not come to the audition, he will compete with Xiao Li for the hero of the Titanic, Chris O'Donnell has also withdrawn the audition appointment, he has already got the role of Robin in Batman Forever, Two film appointments, this one is a supporting role, and he will be upgraded to be the second male lead in Batman and Robin..."

Linton, the president of Hollywood Pictures, scratched and scratched on the audition form, "The cat-and-mouse game male lead is no longer their thing."

"Hollywood is always changing so quickly, right?" Song Ya smiled, "I said why Chris O'Donnell transformed himself into a tough image, and he almost didn't recognize him last time as Scent of a Woman Buttercup in

It turned out that he was aiming at playing Robin. "

"Haha, anyway, you don't like his ass and chin."

Linton laughed. He was in a good mood. Hollywood Pictures invested 20 million yuan, APLUS participated in the production, and David Fincher may direct. After the release of this project based on the autobiography of the legendary liar Abagnale, he His company has obviously gained a lot of popularity in the industry, and some big-name brokers have begun to take the initiative to contact them.

"Hollywood is very practical." He said: "Everyone is starting to be cautious about us now. The reason why I use the word cautious is to remind you that many things and many people have not yet settled down."

"Please speak." Song Ya humbly made a gesture of listening attentively. Linton's ability to handle affairs is very strong, although the quarrel between the two parties was not very pleasant when they first contacted.

"First of all, he is in contact with the author of the original work, Abagnale. He is a liar. You know, this kind of person is extremely clever, so even though he has already sold the adaptation rights, he is still trying to get us out of it. He is not easy to deal with if he wants to maximize the benefits."

Linton said, "How much do you think he should be paid?"

"Remuneration for a script consultant?" Song Ya said.

"Not enough, the consultant fee must be paid. He has been running announcements, giving speeches, and selling books over the years. He is well-known in the United States and even other English-speaking countries. If I can let him help with the announcement, I plan to pay him more. .It’s nothing, but it’s tiring playing with a legendary liar..."

Linton said, "Do you have any idea?"

"I recently dealt with the FBI, you know, the Sinaloa case." Song Ya said: "The second male in our script is an FBI agent, who was mentioned in Abagnell's original book, I think we might as well find the agent archetype and pull him over as a consultant. He is definitely cheaper than Abagnale. When we have another witness, the value of Abagnale to us will be greater. Greatly reduced, and so is his bargaining power..."

"Wow, your idea is very old-fashioned APLUS, how did you come up with it?" Linton said, clapping his hands.

"Hey, no, I just want to flatter the FBI recently."

Song Ya smiled embarrassedly. Vic killed an agent. Even if he was successfully covered up, he is now very guilty of the FBI. There is a famous saying in the hip-hop circle that singers are not afraid of heaven and earth, they are most afraid of God, and the second is the FBI, because even the singers who are not very popular are at least small celebrities of local gangs. What's the trouble, and because gangs like to win over rappers, the gangs that singers defect to are generally not low in local energy, and it's normal operation to get some local police officers, so if the crime is only a trivial matter, the police's deterrence against them is not enough. Fear that the FBI, which has extensive law enforcement powers and does not know when it will suddenly fall from the sky.

"Actually, we thought of going together."

Linton blinked slyly, and pulled out a person's resume from the folder, "Joseph Shea, a veteran FBI agent, has handled many major cases and also handled the Abagnell case, although he arrested the man The actual process of the legendary liar is not as legendary as the adaptation in your script, but if we get him first, Abagnale will definitely become good, and the two of them have a good relationship afterwards."

"Is it cheap?" Song Ya asked.

"He is over seventy years old. An ordinary retired old man can earn a windfall, and his past experience will be beautified as the protagonist of the movie. There is no possibility of his unwillingness. Let me say that he is willing to calculate some transportation expenses. It’s just that if you do this, it will not be very good if it is exposed by the media.” Linton replied.

"OK, let's find him first."

Song Ya agreed.
