Meiyu: I don’t care about the cost when making movies

Chapter 129 27 out of 1
However, compared to the supporting male roles, the competition among the supporting female roles is more intense.

In particular, 'Katie's' math teacher 'Nobury' was cast between the ages of 24 and 35, and Wayne had not made an appointment in advance, so there were 27 actresses who auditioned for this role.

When Wayne walked into the audition room and took the audition form from Serra, when he saw this situation, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and was stunned for several seconds.

"There's nothing you can do about it, Wayne, why are you so welcomed by these girls~"

Wayne smiled helplessly, and then said hello to director Nancy Meyers, producer Melanie Sloan, and screenwriter Tina Fey.

On the other side, after Mike comforted Jonah Hill, he then walked towards the other couple who just wanted to go find Wayne for an autograph and take a photo like the other women, but failed to squeeze in and had to start again. The mother and daughter returned to the original corner and greeted the two of them with a smile.

"Hello, Ms. An, and little Amanda."

"Hello, Mike, but I'm not young anymore, so please just call me Amanda." A blond girl with a pointed oval face and big bright eyes, who looks very fresh and energetic. When the mother next to her opened her mouth, she started to complain first.

Seeing her dissatisfied look, Mike couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay, Amanda, how did you prepare the character script I gave you earlier?" Mike asked.

"This... it's okay. Although I hired an acting teacher to guide my acting skills, the time was really too short." The blonde girl couldn't help complaining, but her expression didn't look like before. Jonah Hill is so nervous.

But it's no wonder that the blond girl in front of her is Amanda Seyfried, who later became a Hollywood A-list star.

Not to mention that she was appointed by Wayne in advance, so there was basically no competitive pressure. She started modeling as early as 11 years old, and started starring in TV series when she was 14 years old.

Although he is only 16 years old now, which is two years younger than Jonah Hill, he has much more acting experience than Jonah Hill.

"No way," Mike shrugged, "Hemera Pictures has always been so fast, so if you want to achieve success in this industry and become a big star surrounded by countless spotlights, you must also pay attention to improving your acting skills on weekdays. "

"I know I will study hard and won't let Wayne down!"

When she mentioned Wayne, Amanda couldn't help but have a look of admiration on her face.

Just like any boy doesn't admire Monica Bellucci and Sophie Marceau, little girls like Amanda are also more handsome than Leonardo DiCaprio, and Wayne, who is still powerful in Hollywood, admires them immensely.

It's a pity that although Wayne appointed her to play such an important role as the fourth female lead 'Karen', he did not meet her in person.

In fact, it was the first time she had seen Wayne so close.

Mike on the opposite side couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

It may be due to different aesthetics. In Wayne's opinion, although Amanda's appearance is not bad, it is far inferior to Martina and Scarlett.

And according to the historical trajectory of her previous life, Amanda's shelf life is also a bit short. Her appearance began to decline when she was only 25 years old. Unlike Martina, Scarlett, and Anne, who are almost 40 years old, their appearance has not declined much. There's no comparison at all.

So although he is a little interested in Amanda, it is not very big. It is okay to try something new once in a while, but forget it if he holds it for a long time.

But in Mike's eyes, Amanda is more beautiful than Martina, Scarlett, and even Anne.

In addition, she is younger and has greater plasticity, so in Mike's opinion, Amanda's potential is much higher than these three, so he still values ​​Amanda quite highly.

But preparing for the audition is the most important thing now, so after mentioning a few key points of audition experience and some of Wayne's preferences, he and Mrs. Seyfried walked aside so that Amanda could adjust quietly by herself. state.Soon the audition officially began.

Since Wayne wanted to play the leading role, he naturally skipped the audition for the leading role. After all, the only investor and production company boss wanted to star, so no matter whether it was suitable or not, no one would dare to object.

Is the director majestic?Artistic pursuit?Hidden rules of casting?Nothing exists in front of capital.

So the first audition naturally fell on Scarlett, who played the heroine 'Katie'.

"Scarlett!"

Bored Hannah temporarily took on the task of informing.

Soon, Scarlett, who deliberately put on a loose T-shirt and jeans to look a bit rustic, walked in.

Just seeing this scene, whether it was Wayne, Nancy, or Sierra, they all nodded in their hearts.

Auditions are not beauty pageants, fitting the role is the most important thing.

Even though Scarlett has been confirmed as the heroine, she still chose this kind of makeup. Not to mention her acting skills, at least her attitude is very good.

"This is your audition script. You have 2 minutes to prepare." After Scarlett briefly introduced herself, Nancy handed her the prepared role script.

"Thank you." Scarlett quickly took it with both hands and quickly opened it. When she saw that it was a fragment from the character script she had received in advance, her heart suddenly calmed down.

2 minutes later, Scarlett started her performance.

I have to say that although Scarlett's acting skills have always been average in Wayne's opinion, compared to most actresses of the same age, her acting skills are actually not bad.

If the total score is 100 points and 60 points meets the standard, her acting skills will probably be around 70 points.

Coupled with her appearance advantage, she can probably reach 75 points.

If you meet the right role, you may perform at a level of 85 or even 90, just like the widowed sister in the Avengers.

At the end of the five-minute performance, Wayne took the initiative to turn to Nancy Meyers and asked for her opinion.

After Nancy Meyers thought for a moment and objectively gave a good evaluation with no problems, Scarlett successfully passed the audition.

The next person to audition was the female villain 'Regina', played by Annie.

To be honest, among the roles he assigned this time, the one he was most worried about was Annie.Because the character of 'Regina' is somewhat similar to the early character of 'Terry', the heroine in "Happy Death Day". She is the standard bitch who looks sweet and sexy but is bad and slutty on the inside.

Whether it's the original Rachel McAdams or Jessica Lord playing this role, it should be very suitable and very simple.

But if Anne were to play the role, it would be a bit of a challenge to her acting skills.
