Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 611 Great Opportunity

"That's right." Lyra took a deep breath when she heard the name.

"We have bought the copyright for a long time. When I asked you why you didn't make the film, you always said that you were not ready. So are you ready now?" Louise didn't quite understand her point of view on this film. idea.She felt that she seemed to be paying too much attention to it, more than the sum of her films over the years, otherwise there would be no previous words of "not ready".

Laila leaned back in the chair with a dignified expression: "I think I should be ready."

In recent years, she has been studying the shooting of large-scale scenes.The Lord of the Rings is an epic work, and it is not easy to shoot well.It's like an ant will never know what the world looks like to an elephant.

She has been studying and honing all these years.You can tell by watching her more difficult movies than the last one. She filmed the vast sea of ​​"Pirates of the Caribbean", the magical background of "Harry Potter", and many big scenes and special effects of "Iron Man". Picture, she really felt like she was ready.

It took a full seven years for the original Lord of the Rings to prepare for the additional filming. The three films added up to nearly six hours, and the extended version even reached more than seven hours.

Laila didn't plan to spend so much time. She deliberately waited for so many years to start. First, she had to learn more shooting skills, and second, she waited for the film's special effects technology to be more perfect.It can be said that the current year can do more things than before.

two years!This is the time she set for herself.

It is now 2003, and she will make Lord of the Rings the most magnificent epic classic in the hearts of movie fans all over the world during the 05 Christmas schedule!
Seeing the excitement she hadn't seen for a long time, Louise said no more: "In this case, let's get started. I think we have a lot of things to deal with. Those who have lines in "The Lord of the Rings" There are more than 100 roles, do you have any requirements for actors?"

Every time the selection of actors is arranged by Louise, and the final decision is made by Leila, this time there are so many people to be selected, it will definitely be the same.What she asked was not all the actors, but the leading actors, wondering if she already had a candidate in her mind.

A large-scale movie like this requires a lot of actors, so it is a type that some newcomers and ordinary actors like very much.Because such movies are generally not stingy, it means more funds and better production, so the possibility of success is relatively high.If it really succeeds, being able to get acquainted with it will also be of great benefit to future development.

Actors are so sought-after, let alone leading actors.Being able to play an important role in such a film will become an important qualification for the actor himself.If the movie becomes popular accidentally, it is not just a simple qualification, but also a shining point and the cornerstone of future achievements.Such a good opportunity cannot be given out casually.

Laila had thought about this question a long time ago: "I don't have any candidates for now, so let's choose in our own company."

"I see." Louise replied solemnly.

When she left the office, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have confused the purpose of coming here.She obviously wanted to persuade Laila not to put too much burden on her all at once, but why did she have so much work instead?But thinking that Lila finally listened to her persuasion and stopped insisting on filming "The Devil", she was quite satisfied with this conversation.

When she released the news that Lila hoped to find someone to accept "The Devil", many people were moved.First of all, Leila will be the producer and producer, then she wrote the script, and even the actors were selected.what does that mean?
It means that as long as it is not too wasteful, you can shoot this movie with your eyes closed!
To the rookie director, it was as if Leila had all the expensive parts ready, and the rest of the director assembled them with his own aesthetic.As long as the director doesn't have too weird aesthetics, then he will contribute an excellent work.

It can be said that this is a very good opportunity for new directors. No one will doubt Lila's ability to write the script and choose actors. Since she wrote the script and decided on the actors, it means that it is definitely the most suitable choice.

So soon after the news spread, someone came to Laila's office.

"I wish I could make that movie!"

It was Patty Jenkins who approached Lila directly.

Laila looked at the woman who was a few years older than herself: "Give me a reason that can convince me."

Jenkins took a deep breath: "I am very interested in the case of Irene Wuornos, and I have been studying her case." She took out a thick stack of documents from her bag: "This is You can take a look at my research information, it is definitely not lying."

Laila took the documents in her hands, flipped through a few pages, and saw that many of the places she marked were written in small characters. Obviously, what she said was true, and she really researched the case thoroughly.

"What do you think about actors?" She put down the information and looked at her.

"I think Theron is a perfect choice. I have seen her perform in "The Devil's Advocate" before, and I think she is very suitable for this role. If I choose, I will definitely choose her!" Jenkins said Pretty sure.

Maybe it seemed to others that she was flattering the boss, but Laila knew she was telling the truth.Because the original version of "The Devil's Head" is the first work of this lady, the reason why she chose Theron is what she said just now. After seeing Theron's outstanding performance in "The Devil's Advocate", she decided that she would Deduce the best Eileen Wuornos in her mind!
Since she stood up and hoped to make this movie, Laila was of course happy to see it.In her previous life, she used this film to send Theron to the Oscars, so it must be no problem to hand it over to her now.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." She nodded readily.

It's just that her straightforwardness almost scared Jenkins, because she felt that she had to spend more effort to sell herself. After all, she had never made a movie before. How many people would be willing to give such an opportunity to herself?

But why did the boss agree before she said what she had prepared all night?If she didn't know how much Lila attached importance to the movie, she would have thought that the boss didn't like the movie.

"Why?" She couldn't help asking.

Lila smiled slightly: "Because you were the first person to come to me."

"That's it?" Jenkins couldn't believe what he heard.Was it just because she got up so early that she got such a great opportunity?
