America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM.

Chapter 350 348. What did you eat to grow up? Why are you so anxious?
"Wow! Eric Cooper, why is he here?"

“He’s the producer.”

"No, I know he's the chief producer, but how can a super-rich man like him, who is so busy every day, have time to attend an interview?"

"Who knows, but this is a great opportunity. As long as I can get the approval of Eric Cooper, I will definitely soar to the sky."

"Think of Ryan Reynolds, Michael Fassbender, Tom Hardy, Chris Evans, all the newcomers he promotes will be popular."

"Huh, relax! Now that you say that, I suddenly feel so nervous."

Click!

"Here he comes. Why is it Tom Welling? He must have come to the wrong set."

At this time, Tom Welling passed by and happened to hear the conversation, and he couldn't help but smile.

"I know what you're thinking, guys. It's a little weird that Superman is auditioning for the role of Aquaman."

"But what can I do? The new Superman has been promoted and Henry Cavill has obviously been recognized by many people."

"What about you? How did the audition go?"

Tom Welling hesitated for a moment and said, "It depends on the attitude of the interviewer. I have to go. I still have to attend the interview for Green Lantern. Come on, guys."

"Well, after I finished my audition for Aquaman, I'm also going to interview for Wonder Woman."

"Which role are you going to audition for?"

"Actor Steve Trev, I've been working out like crazy this month."

"Then wish us success."

"you also?"

"Yes, after I finish here I still have to go to Marvel for an interview."

Inside the audition room, Eric took some time out today to come and check out the situation.

With such a large-scale layout, as the chief designer, I have to show up at the right time.

Although Judy, James Wan and Kevin Feige report their work progress to themselves at least once a week.

But experience tells me that always sitting in the office is far less clear than conducting field research on the front line.

However, when he saw that the person who pushed the door in was Tobey Maguire, he was still stunned.

"Toby, why are you here?"

Tobey Maguire was also surprised to see Eric, thinking back to the news he heard yesterday that he was not among the interviewers.

"I'm here for an interview, to interview Arthur Curry."

"You? You want to audition for Aquaman? Spider-Man auditioning for Aquaman?"

Tobey Maguire nodded: "I am standing here, not joking, I really plan to audition for Aquaman, or other roles."

"Actually, I also watch The Flash quite often. I like Barry Allen and I have also submitted an application there."

Next to him, Zack Snyder tilted his head: “Boss, you underestimate the appeal of our movies to actors.”

"It seems so. This is a role that can be played for ten years. So let's get started, Toby."

After a line of dialogue, the interviewers, including Eric, all nodded.

His more than ten years of acting experience is not an exaggeration. Although he became famous through Spider-Man, his basic skills are indeed solid.

However, no matter how solid your basic skills are, they will not be enough when it comes to applying makeup.

Too thin, and his height of 175cm is nothing to be proud of.

Although the Aquaman in the comics and animation is not a muscular man, he can only be described as a strong man, but he still doesn't match Tobey Maguire.

Seeing him and recalling the movies in his memory always gives Eric a feeling of Henry Cage vs. Cage. That's it.

Finally, Eric shook hands with the other party: "You are great Toby, I like your performance, we will seriously consider it."

Tobey Maguire also realized that the effect was not satisfactory, but it didn't matter, he believed that he was more suitable for the Flash.

The assistant casting director went to continue calling people, and Eric looked at Zack Snyder: "Zack, what do you think Aquaman should look like?" Zack Snyder shook his head slightly: "According to the setting of the New 52, ​​Arthur should be a blond handsome man, handsome and strong."

"But we have made changes to Superman and Wonder Woman, so there is no need to follow the comics completely."

"But I don't think Tobey Maguire is suitable. His Spider-Man is too deeply rooted in people's hearts and it's too easy to lose the show."

Eric agreed with this, saying that Snyder has a good eye for casting and a solid foundation in aesthetics, camera movement, lighting, etc.

If his business sense was not so poor, using him as a trader would actually be a good choice.

Squeak!

The door opened and the next interviewee walked in.

The moment he saw him, Eric suddenly felt as if he was dislocated in time and space.

Because the person who came was Jason Momoa, and what Eric couldn't understand was that this guy looked almost the same as he did a dozen years later.

Can you imagine?
When a person is less than 30 years old, he already looks like a person in his s.

What did you eat to grow up? Why are you so anxious?
The reason why he hasn't finalized the actor for Aquaman is because he thinks Jason Momoa is too young and doesn't have the right temperament, so he needs to hold an audition.

But now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

I nervously talked about my resume, saying that I have been in the industry for 7 years, but I only played small roles.

"The role I'm auditioning for is Arthur Curry. Of course, this is what my agent decided."

"Except for my strong body, I don't think I'm anywhere near the Sea King. At least I'm not blond."

"But I can audition for other roles. Black Bat is also good. Please give me a chance, director."

Eric and Zack Snyder both looked at each other carefully, and then looked at each other.

"Let him try it."

"Well, hair color isn't the point, come on Jason, let's act out a scene."

"I'll take on the role of Meila. Are you ready?"

Jason Momoa nodded quickly: "Of course, of course, I have been preparing for a long time."

Zack Snyder coughed lightly a few times, and said sharply with his throat pinched deliberately: "Arthur, you are the son of Queen Atlanna, you are the king of the sea."

Seeing him like this, Eric couldn't help but chuckle.

Jason Momoa didn't dare to laugh, his expression was full of impatience: "I don't know anything about Atlanna, I'm the son of a tower keeper, don't bother me!"

The two of them chatted back and forth, and finished two conversations in a few minutes. They performed well.

"Very good. Your tone, expression, movements, and eyes show that you have studied the role carefully," Eric praised.

Jason Momoa's self-confidence has obviously increased: "Mr. Cooper, I actually think I have an advantage."

"what?"

"I was a member of the school team in high school, which made me strong, and I studied marine biology and wildlife studies in college."

"I can't say I'm very proficient, but at least I know a lot about many creatures in the sea."

"Do you like the sea?" Zack Snyder asked.

"Yes, I have a lot of fish at home."

"Great, let's try some styling."

The makeup artists and prop masters started to work, and Eric simply gave them his own instructions.

Take off his shirt to show his muscles, give him a trident, make his eyebrows thicker, mess up his hair, and blow dry it.

After more than half an hour, the actors queuing outside were extremely anxious.

This is not a good sign, the guy inside is obviously very popular.

At this moment, Jason Momoa walked out with a brisk pace and waved to the buddies who had just chatted: "Come on, good luck to you!"
