Best Movie Star

Chapter 705: Change the soup but not the medicine

The waiting room was unusually quiet. The other actors who participated in the audition glanced at Matthew and James McAvoy from time to time. Since they were interested in competing for one of the supporting actors, they certainly knew who the leading actor was in the film. So so attractive, the main thing is Christopher Nolan and Matthew Horner.

In particular, Matthew Horner is simply synonymous with success, and his popularity may be even more popular.

The situation now is that Matthew Horner is very familiar with one of their competitors, and it seems that the relationship is not easy.

Looking at James McAvoy, many people began to complain in their hearts: You know Matthew Horner, say it earlier, why are you playing auditions? It's all a waste of everyone's time.

Everyone originally played games on the same platform. You just got a super plug-in and let others play?

With golden thighs like Matthew Horner, winning such a supporting role is not a matter of minutes.

"Without someone as interesting as Tom Hardy..."

Regardless of other people's opinions and thoughts, James McAvoy kept shaking his head at Matthew, "What a pity! Don't you think the future crew is missing something?"

In fact, he has already met Christopher Nolan. The audition is more of a procedure. After all, the crew has conducted a huge audition, which has attracted many well-known actors in the circle to participate. It is impossible to stop and stop, and stop is for publicity. Also very unfavorable.

Matthew shrugged. "It's not my fault."

James McAvoy grumbled deliberately, "You must have scared him away."

"Otherwise," Matthew said seriously, "I'll ask someone where he lives, and you will come and invite him in person?"

James McAvoy murmured, "I'll ask Michael about it."

"Where's Michael?" Matthew thought of Michael Fassbender. "He hasn't come to Los Angeles yet?"

"No." James McAvoy shook his head. "He's still filming Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" in France. It's estimated that he won't come to audition next week."

Matthew nodded, when a crew member came to tell James McAvoy to go to the audition room, and when James McAvoy walked to the audition room, he got up and left.

The audition for the crew will last for more than half a month. Although James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender have a great chance of passing the audition, no one can guarantee the results before the official results.

Although Matthew is named a producer, he does not have much say in the roles other than Dom Cobb. The most powerful person in the crew is Christopher Nolan.

This is also the first time Christopher Nolan has gotten rid of Charles Rowan and made an independent film after working with Warner Bros.

In the next few days, Matthew still came to the crew on time every day. In addition to rehearsing his scenes, reading some books related to dreams, he also communicated with Christopher Nolan, and sometimes with Michael Caine and Cillian Mo. Fei rehearsal.

From these two people, Matthew also knows that he was not Nolan's first choice at first. When the film was first planned, Nolan invited "Batman" Christian Bale to play the leading role, but Bell was because of "Terminator 4". The filming schedule conflicted and rejected Nolan's kindness, and then Nolan quickly thought of him who once hoped to cooperate on The Joker, and this is what happened next.

No matter who Nolan liked at first, the actor is now his.

Matthew is very clear that he needs a movie with a big box office and word-of-mouth to restore some of the market appeal of "Superman Hancock".

At first he only remembered that this was one of Will Smith's popular movies, but he never thought that this movie was really bad.

To be precise, "Hancock" is the worst of all his films, starting with the minor supporting role in "Band of Brothers".

This film has achieved a huge commercial success, but it has consumed his years of accumulation, which often takes several films to make up.

Worried that "Superman Hancock" will drag down the films starring later, Matthew is also asking Helen Herman to communicate with Disney Pictures and BWI International to develop a better publicity and distribution strategy for "Fast and Furious 4".

However, his own energy is mainly on "Inception", Christopher Nolan's requirements for actors and roles are much higher than Stephen Sommers.

He had to get his hands on the role of Dom Cobb before filming began.

Matthew got the script as early as this year and last year, and kept in touch with Christopher Nolan during the period. Except for the filming of "Special Forces", he has been studying the actor Dom Cobb and made a lot of notes for this.

While he couldn't be as persistent and crazy as Heath Ledger, he also developed an emotional connection with Dom Cobb in his own way.

For this role, he is the person the crew knows the most outside of Christopher Nolan himself.

Matthew's preparation for this role is mainly divided into two aspects.

One is to bring in the analysis of character behavior, and the other is to use practical actions to establish the image of Daum-Cobb.

The latter seems easy, and it also makes some so-called experts disdain. In fact, it is very important. After Matthew officially reported to the crew on the first day, he all appeared in the crew with a unique image.

Suit and leather shoes, beautiful golden brown hair, typical middle-class style, but with a slightly vicissitudes of life and unshaven beard.

Once the image of the character is established, it is possible to dig deeper into the character.

Dom Cobb is the leading man throughout the film, as well as a complex psychologically entangled character that Matthew rarely plays.

In the script, his main task is to lead his elite team to complete the arduous task of stealing dreams and stealing intelligence. Inception is just a routine business. For Cobb, the biggest threat to his life is to be forced to implant consciousness into the target of action and complete a criminal plan.

Of course, Dom Cobb is by no means a ruthless crime expert. In front of women, his weakness is unbelievable, and it is because of this that his career may be reversed.

Matthew's personal understanding may be one-sided or biased, but one thing is very certain, this male protagonist is a type he has never played in the past.

Hancock is also very painful in his heart, but he is troubled by his own "amnesia", which leads to confusion and confusion; the role of Daum-Cobb is because of the trouble of other people's dreams, which eventually leads to countless disasters. On the inner pain To a degree comparable to that of Howard Hughes in The Aviator.

When studying this role, it is hard for Matthew not to think of Leonardo DiCaprio. After all, that movie left a deep impression on him, and I vaguely remember that "Inception" is also Leonardo DiCaprio. Caprio is the most popular movie after Titanic.

Today, Leonardo DiCaprio has completely transformed from the idol handsome boy in "Titanic" to a deep old man-although some people lament that "beautiful men are too late" and conclude that Xiao Li is already disabled, but a man His acting skills are enough to make up for the change in his appearance.

Of course, Matthew doesn't see it that way.

This is the self-psychological comfort of all disabled people.

A man as heroic and extraordinary as him, never needs any messy things to make up for his flaws in appearance, because he has no flaws!

The male protagonist in the script studied by Matthew is actually different from the Leonardo DiCaprio he has seen before. The most significant point is that Christopher Nolan, in order to fit his characteristics, is also to Showing off what he's always been in the movies, setting up a good move for Dom Cobb, and a couple of related action sequences.

However, these scenes are limited in number, and Christopher Nolan made it clear to Matthew that he has not thought about how to use these action scenes, whether to actually add them to the final film.

The time is quickly approaching the end of the year. After Matthew successfully established the role of Daum Cobb, he did not continue to interpret it. The harm of transitional interpretation is far greater than the gain for the actor. Christopher Nolan actually wanted to make a film different from Popcorn's commercial movie ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ doesn't have many ideas in itself.

Maybe Nolan fans don't see it that way, but it's the truth.

In fact, Christopher Nolan has completely transformed from an independent film director to a commercial film director since "The Hour of War". Even if the script of "Inception" seems complicated, it is not so obscure that it makes people watch it. Crazy, Christopher Nolan didn't make this movie to confuse people.

Even if unsettled mental states and unbelievable logical reasoning have been recurring themes in Nolan's films, Warner Bros. must be crazy if it's like "Memento", even with the success of "The Dark Knight", will also intervene.

Having said that, for people in the industry like Matthew, the script in his hand seems to be a novel breakthrough, endless creativity, and seemingly impeccable. It is clearly a variation of traditional adventure films, and the format is different.

Essentially like The Dark Knight.

As long as it is a big commercial production, Matthew is confident that he can control the role.

Probably because of the limited number of independent literary films he watched, he could never understand those crazy and neurotic performances.

Maybe he will never become the acting school in the mouth of professionals.

But this is nothing in Matthew's eyes. Now that you want money, money, and fame, why do you want to play something that you don't like, uncomfortable and hate?

Isn't that disgusting yourself to please a small group of people?

With his current status, there is no need to do so at all.

Therefore, after receiving the Oscar ballots on December 30, Matthew was very interested in being a judge, and he was not interested in participating in the Oscar competition.

After getting the Oscar ballots, he was not in a hurry to vote. There is still a long time before the Academy collects the ballots, so we can wait and see.
