1456 Casting Error
Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com
The importance of casting is self-evident, even Meryl Streep, some roles are not necessarily suitable, Matthew McConaughey is a good actor, especially from 2012 to 2014 During the years, but he was not the most suitable actor candidate for "Interstellar". From the way of acting to the temperament of the actor, he could not meet the needs of Cooper's role.
In a sense, Renly believes, the integrity of the final "Interstellar" was undermined by Matthew's performance. It's not Matthew's fault, it's Christopher's - because it was Christopher's choice to nail Matthew.
As mentioned before, Christopher is not a director who is good at tuning/teaching actors. He has his own unique vision for selecting actors, but he is not successful every time. It was a rare occasion that Christopher wanted to put more weight on the actor, but caused a certain degree of loss due to his own misjudgment.
Of course, this is just Renly's personal opinion. Outside of Renly, after the release of "Interstellar", there are still many people who like Matthew's performance very much and think that his performance has become the highlight of the movie. This is a matter of opinion, everyone's aesthetics and judgments is different.
If Renly chooses the actors, Casey Affleck or Christian Bale are more suitable choices, and Michael Fassbender or Russell Crowe are also worthy of consideration - provided that Russell- Crowe is willing to lose weight, and after entering middle age, the weight gain is too obvious, and the quality of the performance begins to become... greasy.
However, having said that, Renly himself is not a casting director, nor is he a director, and his opinions and views may be too taken for granted, but they may not be appropriate to the actual situation, and are just a reference.
Now, Andy mentioned Renly in front of Christopher, making Renly one of the alternate actors in "Interstellar", which also made Renly think:
Is he suitable?
This was an interesting question, and the smile on Renly's mouth rose slightly.
Naturally, Andy, who was sitting directly opposite, couldn't detect it. In a short period of time, Ren Li had experienced vicissitudes in his mind, and he only saw the smile gently rising from the corner of Ren Li's mouth, "So, what does this mean? Just because of Christopher Nolan's name and not even seeing the script, did you decide to go for this work?"
"Even if I want to join, I think Christopher has many choices." Renly said briskly. Although his words were modest, the calmness hidden in them still revealed a confidence in his own strength. " However, I don't think it's the best option."
"Why?" Andy became more and more strange. If it wasn't for Renly's tone of voice, he would almost think that Renly lacked confidence now, which is really abnormal, "If you say 'Nightcrawler', you Think Jack is a better fit, at least you read the script; but Christopher's project, why? I don't think he can find a better fit than you."
"I think so too, we're looking forward to it now, and Christopher can think so too." Renly also realized that he had read the script "ahead of time". Obviously Andy doesn't know much about the characters and the script now, so naturally Mist, so he used a vague tone to pass over the topic just now.
Leaving aside the way of acting and the characters, Renly's biggest disadvantage is age:
In November this year, he had just turned twenty-four years old, and even if he counted the false age, he was only twenty-five years old.
The core theme of "Interstellar" is time, and the power ratio between age and years is a crucial part.
Before Cooper left home, the son and daughter were teenagers, timothee-chalamet, who played son Tom, was eighteen years old, and Mackenzie-foy, who played daughter Murphy, was thirteen years old; Matthew McConaughey, who plays Cooper, is forty-two.
Cooper's son and daughter came of age during his space expedition, with Casey Affleck, who played adult Tom, at thirty-eight and Jessica Chastain, who played adult Murphy, was thirty-six.
Cooper returns to the base of human existence, old son and daughter, William-devane as old Tom seventy-four, ellen-burstyn as old Murphy eighty-one age.
It can be easily seen that the age of actors is not completely fixed, but an age range is still intercepted. When he first appeared, Cooper should be around forty years old, and the minimum age should be thirty-five years old; then Cooper should be around 40 years old. Always in the same state, the son and daughter have been growing, first in middle age in their mid-thirties, and then in old age in their seventies.
Of course, these data can be modified.
But in Renly's view, the minimum age for an actor to play Cooper should remain around thirty to thirty-five.
Childhood sons and daughters can be reduced in age. For example, a son is 14 and 15, and a daughter is 10. This age also makes sense for teenagers who get married and have children after graduating from high school.
Compared with middle-aged Tom and Murphy, Cooper is similar in age to them, which can create the confusion caused by time travel - Cooper, who should have been a father, is now with Tom and Murphy. Fei is also facing a mid-life crisis, so the actors should be similar to Cassie and Jessica.
As for the elderly Tom and Murphy, the influence is
Not too big, in the final analysis, as a father Cooper became a junior. This creates the greatest emotional shock.
"Interstellar" is different from other movies. The power of time represented by age is the core theme. If you don't want to completely change the actors, it is most appropriate to choose actors between the ages of 30 and 45. This also makes Renly The young age has become a fatal shortcoming, and it would be unrealistic to ask the entire cast to reselect the cast based on Renly's age—
As I said before, Hollywood's main actors are concentrated between the ages of 30 and 45. There are many actors in their early twenties like Renly, but their strength, ability, opportunities, etc., all They are all marginalized people. It is extremely difficult to select a group of outstanding third- and fourth-tier actors. At the same time, this is not in line with Christopher's consistent style of all-star cast.
Even if Christopher wanted to, the production company or investment company might not.
In other words, Renly's participation was definitely difficult, as he said: he was not the best choice.
Choosing Matthew was a casting mistake, so was choosing Renly another casting mistake?
Renly himself could not answer.
Andy looked at Renly carefully, and then a flash of inspiration occurred. He thought he understood Renly's concerns, nodded lightly in agreement, and expressed his opinion.
"Warner Bros. is indeed a problem now. Christopher has not yet determined whether this work is invested by Warner Bros. or Legendary Pictures. I don't know the content and terms of his contract. Presumably, Kevin Tsujihara Neither with Thomas Tour will give up easily, and the next exchange of interests is also a headache."
Obviously, Andy's understanding was going in the wrong direction, but Renly didn't correct him either, and it's nice to have such a beautiful mistake.
"To be honest, I don't know whether I should hope that Warner Bros. will win the production rights, or Legendary Pictures will win the production rights." Andy sighed softly, facing such a big-big-level confrontation, as a A famous agent, Andy's power is really limited, "Kevin Tsujihara and Thomas Tull, neither of them is easy to get along with."
"They are producers, and I am an actor. In the final analysis, an actor is still a job cooperating with a director. As for the producer, they can't just hope to squeeze the cost of the film. I think there should be no contradiction between us." Renly is a kindhearted person, obviously the "Jurassic Park" restart project is being suppressed by Thomas, and now "Interstellar" may face the suppression of Thomas, but he still has no burden.
Andy shook his head helplessly, "If you have a chance to talk about this, I mean, in the face of Steven Spielberg or Christopher Nolan, please stick to the 20 million salary and Box-office dividends, okay? I need your cooperation, I need you to take a stand with the authoritative directors, and I need the directors to put pressure on Thomas Tour and Kevin Tsujihara."
Renly raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender. He didn't speak, but a smile on his face was the best answer.
If it was something else, Andy would have taken it easily, but the issue of remuneration is really important, and Andy also understands Renly's personality, he has no idea about the remuneration at all, so he has to speak up again and again now .
"Renly, I'm serious. If you choose 'Nightcrawler,' that's fine, even if you drop your paycheck, I won't say much at all; but choose Christopher Nolan or 'Jurassic' Ji Park', then I need you on my side."
After egot, Renly chose "Boom Drummer", because he is also a producer, so the salary is not the focus of attention at all, and there is nothing worth discussing; but now there is a chance to choose a commercial film, Andy will never let go easily .
Even if "Gravity" has not been released yet, and the box office performance is unknown, in Andy's view, the 20 million club plus box office dividends is what Renly deserves.
Reject the 20 million club? This is also no problem, just increase the box office dividend ratio. Not because Andy is confident in Renly's market appeal, but because it is an important reflection of Renly's position in the industry: he doesn't care about the potential risks that he needs to take on box office dividends, and he doesn't care about the amount of the final dividend profit. The point is that Hollywood must acknowledge Renly's first-line status.
That's what Andy is fighting for for Renly. Even against Warner Bros., even against Thomas Tour, he's not going to back down easily.
Renly could feel Andy's seriousness, he didn't continue joking, and simply gave a positive answer, "Okay."
