Chapter 70 Brad Pitt also came to the interview

When I came to the MGM building, under the guidance of the front desk, I came to the interview location on the seventh floor smoothly.

"Director Kevin, I'm free tonight, you can call me..."

The front desk is an American sweet girl with **** and fat hips. After bringing Kevin to his destination, he winked at Kevin, gestured with his finger on Kevin's palm, and left a note at the same time. Then he twisted his hips and walked towards the elevator.

Looking at her back, Kevin was a little speechless.

Why are they all treating him as a hungry ghost, I really thought he liked everything.

His current three women, in the future, will all be big stars in Hollywood, and they are still big beauties who have been recognized as **** by some women and recognized by beauty rankings.

Just a front desk

Kevin threw the note into the trash can and walked into an office.

"Kevin, come here."

Reiter and a producer from Warner got up to greet Kevin and greeted Kevin to his seat before continuing:

"Kevin, you look at this list, these are the stars who are interested in the protagonist of Pirates of the Caribbean."

"I've already arranged everything, and I'm interviewing today."

Kevin has gone through three consecutive film sales and the status of MGM's major shareholder, thus gaining the highest voice in the crew led by him.

Simply put, he can use whoever he wants, and no one will question him.

His authority is assured, at least until his films fail at the box office.

After listening to what Leiter said, Kevin picked up the list in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Soon, he saw several familiar names from the list.

Brad Pitt, one of the big stars in Hollywood, although he is still very immature at this time compared to the future, but this year's Best Actor at the Venice International Film Festival is enough to prove his strength.

Jude Law, who was only 21 years old, was also sent to this interview with the power of the company behind him.

Apart from the two of them, the one that Kevin noticed the most was Johnny Depp.

As for the others, to be honest, although there are bigger names than them, they don't fit the Captain Jack Sparrow temperament described by Kevin in the script.

And these three people have a prodigal aura about them, which is in line with the character Kevin portrayed in the script.

"This time, let's choose one of Brad Pitt, Jude Law, and Johnny Depp."

"They have the prodigal air I need, and the others, just go through the interview."

Kevin chanted three names and said slowly.

Reiter and Warner's producers nodded.

Kevin's successive successes are beyond doubt.

Their meaning here is actually for other people in their respective companies to see, in order to show that Kevin did not go his own way, but chose actors based on everyone's opinions.

But in essence, they all knew that Kevin was the only boss on the set.

These actions are nothing more than a fig leaf, in order to give some explanations to the minority shareholders.

...

Brad Pitt rushed to MGM, and then said uncertainly to the agent beside him:

"Can I get the lead in Steve Kevin's movie?"

Although he has just won the best actor in Venice, the gold content of this award is actually not so recognized in the United States.

The arrogant and confident character of Americans makes them obsessed with everything about their own country. Only the Oscar is the most recognized award by the audience.

Venetian actor?

Never heard of it at all.

At this time, Brad Pitt, although he was well-known in Hollywood, it was extremely difficult to easily get such a large-scale role.

The broker said with a sullen face:

"It's very difficult. Generally speaking, the important roles of this kind of big production have been determined as early as when the project was established."

"Although Pirates of the Caribbean is interviewing publicly, it only shows that they have multiple actors they value, not a real public interview."

"We just do our best. You have to show your strength in front of Steve Kevin."

"If he is valued, even if this movie doesn't choose you, but you can't be sure about the next movie, if you think about it, you won't be sure."

"If you want to develop in Hollywood, it is a necessary condition to be familiar with these famous directors."

The broker comforted.

Brad Pitt, handsome and good acting.

He is the most potential star in his hands. For this reason, he took Brad Pitt to get familiar with the major directors.

This time, the interview opportunity for Pirates of the Caribbean was also obtained by him looking for a relationship.

It's also a big production. In Steve Kevin's movie, Brad Pitt has a chance to get the male lead, but once it is replaced by Spielberg or Lucas's movie, Brad Pitt will instead It's hard to get this opportunity.

This is the gap in the intensity of competition.

With some nervousness, Brad Pitt arrived outside the interview room on the seventh floor of the MGM building.

After waiting for several casting interviews to be completed, a staff member went out and shouted:

"Is Brad Pitt here?"

"coming!"

Brad Pitt shouted loudly and walked directly into the interview room.

Kevin looked at Brad Pitt in front of him and handed him a page explaining the character of Captain Jack Sparrow, as well as some of the scenario settings of the plot.

"You have ten minutes to look at these materials and then act out in front of me what you understand as Captain Jack Sparrow."

Kevin smiled and said relaxedly.

Chapter 71 Selected Characters

Brad Pitt nodded and took the time to look carefully.

..

Ten minutes were quickly over, and Kevin looked at Brad Pitt, who closed his eyes and constructed his image of Captain Jack Spike:

"Let's start, please act out the story of Captain Jack who was almost caught and introduced himself when he escaped."

After all, Kevin stared straight at Brad Pitt.

Although Kevin's first choice is definitely Johnny Depp, if Brad Pitt can perform the feeling that Kevin wants, it is not impossible to be a substitute.

The young Johnny Depp made Kevin somewhat uneasy.

...

Hearing Kevin's words, Brad Pitt opened his eyes,

On the paper that Kevin handed him, it described a special captain image with a bit sissy behavior, but very manly behavior, complex personality, and multi-faceted personality.

This is a special image that has never appeared in previous films. Brad Pitt has nothing to learn from. He can only perform such a role with his own understanding.

This is actually the most difficult point.

Brad Pitt, glanced at the props around him, the table, the chair, and nothing else.

With a small jump, Brad Pitt came to the table, and a very proud smile suddenly appeared on his face. Through the smile on his face, people who knew the plot immediately simulated such a scene in their minds.

Captain Jack Sparrow, who was about to escape from the enemy's pursuit range, stood on a high place and looked triumphant before running away.

Brad Pitt took out all his lines, combined with his facial smile, and said proudly:

"Children, you must always remember today that you almost caught it, the owner of the Black Pearl, the most powerful pirate king among the nine pirate kings, Captain Jack Sparrow!"

Brad Pitt, who is extremely talented in acting, has undergone tremendous changes since he apprenticed to actor Roy London. After his careful guidance and systematic professional study, his acting skills have long since undergone earth-shaking changes.

The strong appeal made both Reiter and the producers from Warner applaud under the premise that there was no fixed image of Captain Jack Sparrow in their hearts.

Kevin didn't change his face, nodded, and said softly:

"The performance is good. If the candidate is confirmed, I will let you know."

Hearing this, Brad Pitt couldn't help but look disappointed.

Generally speaking, this situation also means that he has become a substitute, unless none of the people behind him can surpass him, otherwise, it is difficult for this role to fall on his head.

Brad Pitt turned around and was about to leave when he heard Kevin suddenly say:

"Male number two, would you like to play the role?"

Brad Pitt's face instantly brightened, although he was not able to get the only protagonist of the film, Captain Jack Sparrow.

But the actor who won the second role is also a very good role for his current position.

"I would."

"Okay, I will contact you when the time comes, you should go back and wait for news."

Brad Pitt nodded, suppressed his excitement, and left the interview room.

Seeing Brad Pitt leaving, Kevin smiled.

He also found that after just thinking about it, Brad Pitt was the perfect choice for the little blacksmith Will Turner.

The elf prince Orlando Bloom is handsome, but he is more like a little white face, which is naturally incompatible with the profession of blacksmith.

And Brad Pitt is a typical big skeleton. As long as the makeup is added with a little firework, he is a strong blacksmith.

This is the way to go.

After Brad Pitt left, Jude Law also came here for a wave of interviews.

However, the immature Jude Law was successfully PASS dropped by Kevin.

After another round of interviewers going through the process, Johnny Depp finally came on stage.

Looking at Johnny Depp's outfit, Reiter and the Warners producers knew instantly that he was Kevin's favorite actor, and if nothing else, the role would probably fall into his hands.

Johnny Depp, a self-proclaimed rock star, naturally has long hair on weekdays.

After finding a professional to deal with it, the messy hair, dark skin and skin color blown by the sea breeze are exactly like the real pirates, when there is no time for haircuts on board.

Just from the appearance, you can tell that he is prepared.

"Depp, show Captain Jack Sparrow standing smug at the top before fleeing."

"The line is the content of the 'children, you have to forever...'."

Depp nodded, and also chose to walk on the table to simulate standing on a high place.

It's just that, unlike Brad Pitt, Depp stepped onto the table in a peculiar way of swaying from side to side.

The peculiar posture, coupled with Depp's orchid fingers, instantly made the special image of sissy set up in front of several people.

Depp stood on the table and took a good posture before saying:

"Children, you must always remember today that you almost caught it, the owner of the Black Pearl, the most powerful pirate king among the nine pirate kings, Captain Jack Sparrow!"

Exactly the same lines as Brad, but Depp's image is undoubtedly much more feminine, and the feeling it brings to Wright and Warner producers is significantly more special.

"Kevin, I think... Brad Pitt's captain seems more in line with people's ideas?"

Reiter asked tentatively.

Kevin pulled the corners of his eyes and explained with a smile on his face:

"That's what I want, the extreme contrast, Depp plays it very well, and trust me, Captain Jack Sparrow, it's bound to be one of my best."

Kevin is so confident, the two naturally have nothing else to say.

The movie box office exploded three times in a row, giving Kevin a strong voice at this time, and they had no way to object.

Kevin looked at Johnny Depp and said:

"Depp, this movie will be handed over to you. It will take some time before the film officially starts. During this time, you should get used to the feeling of the boat shaking, and you should also practice stabbing swordsmanship in advance, so that you have a good posture. "

Instructed to give Depp the task, Kevin invited Robinov to MGM through Warner Producer to discuss the investment of Pirates of the Caribbean.
