??Chapter 306 The white lotus that stood up again, and the unexpected Phoenix girl
?? "OK~ done~"
In the dressing room No. 4 of Studio 11 of Universal Studios, a stylist wearing a mask pinched the orchid fingers, raised his hands slightly, looked at the girl in the mirror with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "This look is quite suitable. your."
Hearing these words, the girl sitting in front of the dressing table with slack-eyed eyes regained her spirits. When her eyes focused, the lovely girl in the mirror also appeared—the white hair on her forehead was divided into two strands, one left and one right hanging down naturally. The red lips are full of luster, which adds a bit of popularity to the fair cheeks. If it's just that, then it's fine, but as the line of sight moves down, the black leather jacket that wraps the body from the neck will bring out the youthful breath of eighteen years old. While completely covering up, it also outlines countless room for imagination to the outside world through the tight curves, that is, the lack of language in this era, if it is changed to later generations, the guy in front of me takes a photo and sends it on social media. The following reply is absolutely It is all "sa".
?? "Oh~Thank you~ Thank you for your hard work!"
Before the girl could comment on her appearance, the middle-aged woman who stood aside with her arms around her stepped forward, and while thanking her, put her hands on her daughter's shoulders. The joy reflected in the mirror would satisfy her The emotions are vividly displayed.
Such a situation made the stylist leave with interest, and with the sound of closing the door, the woman smiled and said: "Nata~ This should be the most beautiful look you have tried so far, right? It's better than Amidala. Know how much better!"
??The explicit compliment aroused the girl's eyes, and she glanced up at her mother.
?? "Mrs. Hirschler! This is the crew, please pay attention to your behavior!"
?? "If this sentence reaches the ears of Director Lucas, he will be unhappy!"
?? "Amidala is a character he designed himself! If you question my shape, you are criticizing his aesthetics!"
??The hard words made Mrs. Hirschler smile. She lightly squeezed her daughter's shoulders with both hands, and said nonchalantly, "It's alright, alright~ these comments won't reach George's ears~"
It seemed that she felt that her words were a bit exaggerated, so she added another sentence, "Even if he knew, George wouldn't care, because the word-of-mouth of "The Phantom Menace" is really not good, and your appearance is included in the wave of criticism. !"
?? "Okay, let's not talk about this, your primary goal today is to win the role of the little rascal!"
??That's right, the mother and daughter who appeared in the dressing room at this moment are Natalie Portman and her mother Shirley Hirschler.
??Their goal, of course, is "X-Men".
?? It's just that their thoughts and attitudes don't match.
??In other words, the mother and daughter are so utilitarian that their attitudes cannot contain their utilitarianism.
??Of course, in the society, who is not utilitarian?
?? Being utilitarian is a good thing because it drives people up!
However, most of the time, people just use utilitarianism as the driving force to push themselves forward. Generally, individuals know how to hide their thoughts, but in this mother and daughter, 'covering' and 'hiding' these things This word, as if it was picked out of the dictionary, does not exist in this world at all.
In 1994, Natalie Portman became an instant star with her outstanding performance in "The Killer Is Not So Cold". No fewer than a few people.
"Romeo and Juliet Post-Modern Passion" has already been said, but I feel that Leonardo DiCaprio's coffee position is not as big as that of Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, so I rejected the project double-handedly. Behavior, but not just once.
?? After filming "The Wire", Natalie Portman received another invitation to "Farewell to Seventeen".
??From the current point of view, "Farewell to Seventeen" is indeed a very unpopular project.
?? But at the time, this kind of adolescent comedy movie was indeed very suitable for Natalie Portman.
Catherine Hara, who plays the mother in the film, is the mother in "Home Alone 1 and 2", and Gabriel Byrne, who plays the father in the film, also has works such as "Can't Help" and "Little Women" in hand.
??As supporting roles, they have their own popularity, and they have perfectly avoided the situation where the venture capital overwhelms the protagonist, and the male lead who plays opposite the female lead is the well-known Jared Leto.
?? To put it bluntly, as long as the man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, and the plot is acceptable, this is a show that flatters people.
Knowing this, Natalie Portman accepted the book, but just when she promised that she would act in the role, her mother found her another character named "Love Stunner". "s project.
The director of "Love Stunner" is not outstanding, and Natalie Portman has three roles in the movie at most, but even so, she decisively kicked Master Leto, gave up the chance to play the lead actress, and turned to give Mira Sorvino and Uma Thurman acted as the third female lead. The reason is very simple. Matt Dillon, the hero of "Love Stunner", is Francis Coppola's man.
??Hold your thighs...
Human nature.
Of course, if it is human instinct to climb upwards, then what the mother and daughter did is actually right, but their reasons for rejecting "Farewell to Seventeen" are very interesting, because they think that Master Leto is more Little Lizi is still old.
??Hey~
??If you think that the male and female protagonists should be of the same age in film and television dramas, what about "This Killer Is Not So Cold"?
??And after starring in "This Killer Is Not So Cold", why bother to reject two projects with contradictory reasons?
??Of course, if it's just these two times, then forget it.
??But this mother and daughter have never known what it means to be nothing but three.
After filming "Love Stunner", Natalie Portman easily made a soy sauce in Woody Allen and Julia Roberts' "Everybody Says I Love You". After that, The mother-daughter duo went back to Tim Burton's crew, where they lost their faces in Jack Nicholson's "Mars and Earth."
The act of frequently brushing her face with her thighs in her arms attracted a lot of attention. At this time, Ang Lee, who had just finished filming "Sense and Sensibility" and was preparing for "Ice Storm", sent her an invitation, hoping that she could join the group to play roles.
The success of "Sense and Sensibility" made Ang Lee famous. Natalie Portman naturally agreed to the invitation of such a cutting-edge director. After learning that "Ice Storm" starred in Kevin Klein, She was even happier.
??Because this guy won the Oscar for Best Actor in "A Fish Called Wanda" in 1989.
??Not only that, but the box office of "President Foggy" and "Love in Paris" starring him are very good.
??But when she went to the audition, she thought it was good, and when she agreed verbally, alas, the accident happened again.
?? Because her mom got her an audition for Star Wars Episode II: The Phantom Menace.
??So, Natalie Portman decisively kicked off "Ice Storm" and continued to embrace the Jewish gang!
??To be honest, if you put "Frozen Storm" and "Star Wars" together, anyone would choose the latter.
??Climbing up with all your strength is not a mistake in itself, but a human instinct.
??But while Natalie Portman refused, she also said that the sexualliberation in the script made her feel betrayed!
??Excuseme? ? ?
?? You couldn't accept "Ice Storm" in 1996, but you could accept "Stealing Heart" in 2003?
??You can't accept the plot of cheating, but you can accept the love triangle of strippers?
good! If you think "Stealing Heart" is not as big as "Ice Storm", what about "Black Swan"?
??Not to mention how the project "Black Swan" came about, just because of the scale issue, it can beat "Ice Storm" by a dozen blocks, right?
?? But the question is, how can the scale compare to the Oscars?
hehe…
??The old double standard!
??I think "Romeo and Juliet Postmodern Passion" is not as attractive as "Heart", so if you just say that you don't have time, it's over?
??I think "Farewell to Seventeen" can't beat "Love Stunner", so just say it's inappropriate?
??I think "Star Wars" can crush "Ice Storm", so just say that the schedule doesn't match?
??Why bother, looking for those reasons?
??Guys in Hollywood, who hasn't double-faced?
??Guys who hang out in Hollywood, who is not looking for a lover with a spare tire?
??Hollywood guy, who would say no to the power everyone craves?
?? Everyone is a normal person with thoughts, so why pretend to be a white lotus?
??Even if you pretend to be a white lotus flower, that's fine, it's a human design!
?? But don't slap yourself madly while setting up the character design!
It is precisely because since their debut, these sisters have been doing bad things like stepping on one another, so whenever a crew takes the initiative to find her, all the creators, including the producer, are actually worried that they will be dissed. Object.
??But how could Kevin Fitch, a novice, know this kind of thing?
??So, the invitation was sent out.
In Roland's previous life, Natalie Portman did take over "X-Men", and as before, she looked at the lineup before making a decision, but "The Phantom Menace" was a big hit at the box office, but it was mixed. After that, she cherished her feathers and treated each of her works more cautiously. When she found that the lineup of "X-Men" was too bad, she once again refused to act and turned to Fox to play the leading role herself. Created "Sweetheart Iraqi".
Not only that, but she also brought in Ashley Judd, who she met in "The Wire", and Joan Cusack, who was nominated for Oscar for Best Supporting Actress twice in 1989 and 1998, to give herself Make a match.
??Although this lineup is not good, it is still good compared with "X-Men" starring newcomers like Hugh Jackman.
??Of course, Roland's previous life situation can only be used as a reference. With his intervention, how could the mother and daughter, who were hugging their thighs all the way up, miss this excellent opportunity? With the word-of-mouth of "The Phantom Menace" continuing to grow, and the second part being prepared but not knowing when it will be filmed, they have been making two-handed preparations, of course they want to find a new commercial series to act as a talisman.
?? At this time, the "X-Men" that invited her to participate naturally became a high-quality spare tire in the eyes of the mother and daughter!
?? This is a manga series created by Roland Allen!
??Marvel has been crushed by DC for so many years, but as soon as Roland took over, he turned into a serf and sang!
?? "Spider-Man" is the third highest box office in film history!
??Before changing to another, who would dare to think?
??With such achievements, it is hard for them to give up!
??As for why Roland will not star in "X-Men", so the results of "X-Men" may not be better than "Spider-Man"?
?? They don't have to worry about this!
??Because Marvel has been acquired by Roland!
?? The acquisition of nearly 3 billion yuan perfectly interprets Roland's determination to make this series a success!
Of course, the Hershler mother and daughter will believe in the quality of "X-Men" because of the existence of Roland, but this does not mean that Natalie Portman likes the current lineup of "X-Men", looking in the mirror In the self, the girl who was a year younger than Roland suddenly asked: "Mom, is Dogray Scott here today?"
??Dougray-Scott is a British actor. He entered the industry in 1992 and only starred in his screen debut "The Princess and I" in 1994.
Although his performance is not good compared with Natalie Portman's career in acting, he still showed his face in last year's "Clash of Heaven and Earth", and it is precisely because of this that he was selected by Tom- Cruise took a fancy to and was invited to "Mission: Impossible 2" to play the role of Ethan Hunt's opponent. Similarly, the crew of "X-Men" also stared at him, hoping that he could play Wolverine.
After listening to her daughter's inquiry, Mrs. Hirschler, who thought her daughter looked good, shook her head and said, "No, he didn't come today. According to the staff of the crew, the schedule of "Mission: Impossible 2" is the same as that of "X-Men." "There is a conflict, so..."
?? "He chose the former."
?? "Really? That's a pity." Natalie Portman sighed.
??Looking at herself in the mirror, even though the air conditioner in the dressing room was turned on, she could still feel the heat under the black leather jacket, which ignited her body, devoured her flesh, and burned her heart.
??Because she knew that if Dougray Scott didn't come, then Wolverine would probably belong to Hugh Jackman.
?? And Hugh Jackman…
??How could it afford the box office?
?? "The other people? What's the situation with other people now?"
??Natalie Portman continued to ask: "Who are the candidates for Storm?"
?? "Storm? The most likely candidates for Storm are Jada Smith and Halle Berry."
It seemed that she had seen her daughter's anxiety, but it was more like guessed her daughter's thoughts. While patting her daughter's shoulder, Mrs. Hirschler didn't stop talking, and said all the news she had inquired before. "And the ones who are most likely to win Phoenix Girl are Famke Jansen and Charlize Theron."
?? "Besides, Professor X and Magneto have already been confirmed."
?? "Patrick Stewart agrees to play Professor X, and Ian McKellen plays Magneto."
??What?
??After hearing her mother's words, Natalie Portman's face immediately froze.
??The unobstructed words blurted out without reservation, "Jada Smith and Halle Berry are the two most likely to be elected as Storm? My God! Are you kidding me?"
?? "Isn't Jada Smith most famous for being married to Will Smith?"
?? "Have you ever had another hit at the box office by Halle Berry?"
?? "As for Charlize Theron, let alone, her most famous movie "Devil's Advocate" has nothing to do with her!"
?? "And Famke Janssen hasn't had a box office hit since GoldenEye!"
?? "That is, except for Patrick Stewart and Ian McLean, the others..."
??Although Natalie Portman didn't finish her sentence, her disgusted tone had fully revealed her thoughts.
??In her opinion, the lineup of "X-Men" is too special!
?? Except for herself, there is no one who can fight at all!
??Of course, it's not like she would think so.
??Because compared to Star Wars, other people's scores, that's really—
shit.
??As the No. 1 IP in North America, no matter how bad the filming of "Star Wars" is, it can despise others!
??If she was included in this lineup, wouldn't she be the one carrying the box office?
??Although this feeling of being trusted is very good, but...
?? This is very inconsistent with her habit of hugging people's thighs for many years!
?? In her opinion, since Roland spent money to buy Marvel, he should be more careful about the "X-Men" series!
Not to mention that Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Robert De Niro, and Anthony Hopkins are used as supporting roles like "Spider-Man", but the protagonist must at least have A certain degree of popularity!
??For example, Phoenix cast Julia Roberts?
?? Isn’t this movie stable?
??And if Roland knew what this guy was thinking, he would definitely keep rolling his eyes.
??Let Julia Roberts play Phoenix?
??You are so special that you want to fart!
?? It’s fine if you want your box office fame to bloom twice, but at the same time, you really don’t want to take responsibility?
??Is there such a good thing in this world?
??Which super A is lying down and winning the top position?
Well…
its not right…
?? "Home Alone"? "Terminator"? "Jurassic Park"? "Spiderman"? "Titanic"? …
??Cough cough cough...
Fortunately, Roland didn't know what Natalie Portman was thinking, otherwise, he would have been shocked by the other party's idea of ??"inviting Julia Roberts to play Phoenix Lady". Of course, Natalie- While Portman hated this and that, Roland, who was the boss in the audition hall, had already interviewed more than a dozen people.
??Because the candidate for Little Rascal was the one with the most characters, Roland put it at the end. In this way, those candidates had fewer roles, so the finalization was quick—
??James Marsden turned down "Beyond the Line" for the role of Cyclops, so of course the role was given to him.
??Although Roland didn't like Halle Berry very much, compared to Will Smith's wife, she was still much better.
??As for the bald professor and the melee mage Magneto?
?? That's basically a formality.
?? To put it bluntly, except for the main characters, Roland can't remember the rest.
??So apart from these guys appearing on the stage, Roland just sat there and pretended to beep more often.
??Hold your arms around, lean back, and leave a gap between your waist and the back of the chair!
Eh!
?? In this way, anyone who enters the field will find him the most dick!
No way, who made Roland compare with the chairman of Universal Music, the CEO, and the president of Universal Film and Television, who were sitting upright, dressed casually, with a loose posture, and his whole body was covered with a personality that made it difficult to move his eyes away ( The sand man (sculpture) charm (energy) (breath)!
All right…
?? In fact, it is more comfortable to sit this way.
??Especially when the president of Universal Films and Television gave him a waist support.
?? Of course, the slack didn't last long, because after a quick walk past some non-controversial guys, a guy in a red suit with burgundy hair and thin-rimmed glasses showed up.
??Looking at the guy from South Africa, Roland felt a little shaken in his heart.
??Because, honestly, he really thinks Charlize Theron is prettier than Famke Janssen.
?? Note: ?The tearing up of "Black Swan" is not a problem at all if it is placed on Natalie Portman. In this chapter, the things about Natalie Portman’s picking and choosing, stepping on the low and holding the high, were not revealed by the media, but were revealed when Christina Ricci and Natalie Portman were tearing up. After Natalie Portman rejected Ang Lee's "Ice Storm", Christina Ricci took over the role. Not only that, but when they dissed each other, Christina Ricci also publicly stated,' Since I entered the business of "Ghost Horse Elf", I have never picked a script or looked for a project, because Natalie Portman will always be prepared, when she makes a choice and rejects some projects with contradictory reasons , projects rejected by her will come to me'. ?Will Smith's wife really wants to play Storm, she has participated in the audition. ? Charlize Theron did receive an invitation from the crew, but she refused at that time, because she did not want to play Phoenix Girl.
