Hollywood starts with an agent
Chapter 32 The Star of Tomorrow
Chapter 32 The Star of Tomorrow
After Aaron recommended "Family Trip" directed by Giuseppe Tornatore to Disney, he began to wait for news from the other party.
In addition, what Aaron did not expect was that Richard Lovett, a young agent from CAA, joined ICM, CAA's old rival;
Aaron wondered if it was because he scolded him on the hotel balcony that night?
CAA certainly wouldn't take it seriously if a young agent left, after all, the number of CAA agents now exceeds 150;
It’s just that Richard Lovett took away the new actress Julia Roberts. When "Pretty Woman" is released next year, she will become famous overnight and will be even more popular than Meg Ryan this year!
"Tsk tsk, I can't imagine what Michael Ovitz and Ronald Meyer's faces will be like then."
Aaron grumbled in his mind, but he just paid some attention to it casually. He would probably leave CAA next year!
At the same time, "The Godfather 3" directed by Francis Ford Coppola also started casting. With Al Pacino's recommendation, Jennifer Connelly also came to New York from the Bay Area to prepare for the audition!
Moreover, on October 1989, 10, a magnitude 17 earthquake struck Loma Prieta, Northern California, and Stanford University also suffered considerable damage.
"You're pretty unlucky. You encountered this kind of earthquake when you transferred to another school this year!"
In the suite of the St. Regis Hotel in New York, Aaron sat on the sofa and read the newspaper in his hand.
Jennifer Connelly stuck out her tongue. "That place is an earthquake zone."
"Okay, the role you're auditioning for this time is the Godfather's daughter. The specific details will be decided by Director Coppola."
“Before, many actors auditioned, including Julia Roberts and Madonna Ciccone, but none of them seemed to satisfy Coppola!”
Aaron had no choice. Italians like family-run businesses, and Coppola's "The Godfather" series included almost all of his relatives.
Jennifer Connelly is a little nervous because "The Godfather 3" is about to start shooting and she doesn't have much confidence.
"Let's go, let's go there early," Aaron patted the other person's shoulder.
"OK, all right!"
When leaving the hotel, Aaron also took the script of "Family Trip" with him, and planned to ask Mr. Al Pacino to pass it to director Coppola.
Francis Coppola has his own production company, and this is also an Italian art film. If Disney is not interested, with Coppola's ability, it would not be too easy to find an American distributor.
The premise is that the script of "Family Journey" can impress Francis Coppola!
Not long after, Aaron drove Jennifer Connelly to the New York set of "The Godfather 3".
The staff took the two of them directly into a lounge to wait.
"The filming location for The Godfather Part III included not only New York but also Italy!"
Aaron Anderson, who was sitting in a chair with Jennifer Connelly, was not optimistic about the audition results, but he still had to tell her about some things.
"No problem, the first movie I starred in a few years ago was an Italian thriller;"
"Besides, I can speak French and Italian, so communication is very convenient!"
Aaron's mouth twitched. "Don't worry, just speak English. Al Pacino and Diane Keaton don't speak Italian."
These two are the male and female protagonists of "The Godfather" series.
Aaron glanced at Jennifer Connelly and said, "Since you can speak Italian, if you're interested in playing the youngest daughter in Giuseppe Tornatore's play, 'Family Journey,'"
Jennifer Connelly looked at Aaron and asked, "Do you think I should go?" "You can give it a try. I'm just worried that you'll always be thinking about acting in school. Instead of taking on scripts like 'Boiling Point', you might as well participate in this kind of art film!"
Now, the investors for "Family Trip" are still being sought, but Aaron is not too worried. Even if there is no American financial support, it is not a big problem. Europe has a special film support fund, and with Giuseppe Tornatore's identity, he should be able to apply for it.
There is no problem for Aaron to let Jennifer Connelly participate now. After all, she is still a certain fame, and Giuseppe Tornatore will not object.
After waiting for a while, the staff brought in two more people, Winona Ryder and her agent!
Winona Ryder is now 18 years old and Jennifer Connelly is 19 years old. They are indeed of similar age and I have met them before at the audition site of "Pretty Woman".
Winona Ryder's agent is also an employee of CAA. She is a female agent and her experience is definitely longer than Aaron's.
However, Aaron Anderson can now be said to be the leader among newcomers at CAA, and ordinary agents cannot compare with his performance.
"Aaron, what a coincidence, I'm Jessica!"
Winona Ryder's agent came over to greet Aaron.
"Hello, Jessica," Aaron smiled and shook her hand, and then the two of them came to a quiet place.
"Winona, you just finished filming 'Edward Scissorhands', right? The director is Tim Burton, and the leading actor is Johnny Depp!"
"Batman" directed by Tim Burton was a huge hit this year, and the relationship between Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder was also a hot topic this year.
Jessica smiled and said, "Winona has already filmed two movies this year, but who can refuse an invitation from Director Coppola?"
Aaron nodded and glanced at Winona Ryder inconspicuously. She had deep eyes and a beautiful face. How could she be dating a neurotic rocker like Johnny Depp?
"A good actor, but young people always get lost easily!"
Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder are currently deeply in love, and there has been a lot of news about them.
Jessica was helpless, as Johnny Depp basically had all the bad habits, women, alcohol, and hallucinogenic drugs.
Winona Ryder has been a leading actress in teen films in the past two years because of "Beetle" and "Heathers". She is on the rise in her career and is a rising star. But now she is dating a rock playboy who is almost 10 years older than her?
What a pity! It is indeed difficult to evaluate a woman in love!
"I can't believe you signed Jennifer Connelly. Her mother was the one who accompanied her to her last audition!"
"I have no choice. I don't have many celebrities except Steven Soderbergh, who is a bit famous. Jennifer is mainly studying now and doesn't have much to do, so I'll give it a try."
Jessica smiled and said, "Aaron Anderson, you are now the name card of CAA film agency and distribution. Do you still need to compete with us little people for food?"
Aaron Anderson has met many producers and film company heads over the past six months;
Everyone knows that his future is definitely to be a film producer, and the identity of an agent will not hold him back for long!
At this time, the staff came in and called for help.
The auditions are about to begin...
