Made in Hollywood
Chapter 197: Ambition
"The craziest and most unlikely event in the film industry of this century has turned into a fact-Duke Rosenberg wants to make a low-cost literary film!"
"We all know that Duke Rosenberg can become famous in Hollywood, relying on his blasting skills and brilliant mirror skills. Because he is so good at blasting, he has been rumored to be a comet. A man born in the time of the earth'! Now, this famous director who has been dubbed the title of Explosive Demon and Duke of Destruction has officially announced that the new work will be based on the Broadway musical "Chicago"..."
In the reception room of the mansion, Tom Cruise has continuously flipped through multiple newspapers including the three major newspapers. They are full of reports on Duke Rosenberg and his new movies, almost occupying the largest part. Most entertainment headlines.
"Pani Kellys and Duke Rosenberg's methods are still as clever as ever."
Pat Kingsley, who has been talking to Nicole Kidman, turned her head and said to Cruise, "They used the inherent thinking of the industry and the public to easily create a public opinion boom. No matter what the future is, the Chicago "This film will be remembered by quite a few people."
Close the newspaper and put them aside, Tom Cruise looked up, "Pat, what's the reaction in the circle?" ℉∷,
"Duke's two partners on "Saving Private Ryan", Fox and Disney, have made it clear that they will not participate in this project." Jinsli pondered for a moment, and then said, "Warner is still talking to Nancy Joseph Sen contacted, if not unexpected, Jeff Robinoff would still support Duke."
She looked at Cruise, "Tom, it's time to make a decision."
"Can he succeed?" Cruise asked with a frown.
"No one can guarantee the success of a movie." Pat Jinsli shook her head and said some reference opinions. "For the past four years, Duke has been making movies at the rate of one film a year, and "Chicago" will not start shooting until next year’s Oscars, or even longer. This is obviously not Duke’s impulse move, but a thought Prepare more fully."
Tom Cruise nodded. Sufficient preparation is the most basic condition for the success of the film.
Jinsli continued, "We have all dealt with him many times, and even vaguely confronted him several times. Is he the kind of person who is so self-confident that he will be so arrogant?"
Here Tom Cruise is still thinking, on the other side Nicole Kidman has already shook his head, "Duke Rosenberg is prepared."
Cruise glanced at Nicole Kidman's pale cheeks, the discomfort in his eyes fleeting.
"This is an adventure."
This is one of the reasons why Tom Cruise has not made up his mind. "The subject matter of the film is indeed very pleasing to the academy. But..."
"Tom, don't forget, this is just a small-cost literary film." Pat Kingsley very much hopes that she can have an Oscar-level customer under her name. "Even if it fails, it will not affect your commercial appeal. There won’t be much damage, what if it can be as successful as "Saving Private Ryan"?"
Jinsli said unceremoniously, "Tom, you have the top commercial appeal. But you have been criticized for acting. You want to be the top star in Hollywood. You want to surpass Hanks and become a representative of male actors. , Business alone is not enough!"
"He has two Oscars, how about you?"
These words seemed to hurt Cruise's heart, his brows furrowed, his palms slowly clenched into fists. Nowadays, when Hollywood talks about the most iconic actor, talks about the star with the highest status and the highest pay, and even talks about the person named Tom, most people think of Tom Hanks first, not Tom Cruise. S!
Hanks can have such a position. "Saving Private Ryan", which worked with Duke Rosenberg, played a huge role.
As his most important customer, Pat Kingsley naturally wants to push Cruise to a higher position, "Tom, I told you before, I want you to be the best actor in Hollywood, No1 among Hollywood actors, if you want to catch up and surpass Hanks, you must do something at the Oscars."
There was a gleam in her eyes, "In my opinion, the reason why Duke Rosenberg chose such a remote subject is also to attack Oscars, but based on my understanding of him, he cannot just stay in this small The cost of movies will inevitably return to the commercial mainstream in the future. If we can have a good relationship with him..."
Looking directly at Cruise's eyes, Jinsli said in a solemn tone that he had never seen before, "Don't tell you that you don't know Duke's commercial ability!"
Tom Cruise was still thinking in silence, but Nicole Kidman’s light blue eyes kept turning. She had seen the script sent by Nancy Josephson...
The most important thing is that she has certain dancing and singing skills!
"What's their salary?" Cruise interrupted Nicole Kidman's thinking, and then heard Pat Kinsley's answer, "3 million dollars!"
It’s impossible for this kind of low-cost film to offer a salary that meets the actor’s worth. Nicole Kidman is not surprised. Big stars appearing in such literary and artistic films will basically cut their salary, and some even appear for free. .
"My bottom line is $5 million!"
Hearing this, Pat Kinsley nodded, Cruise Ken let go, and talked about everything. She was most afraid that Cruise missed the opportunity because of the previous disputes. Cooperation with people you like is nothing at all.
After discussing some related details, Pat Kinsley left, and Nicole Kidman took the initiative to send her out.
"Pat..."
When he walked out of the villa, Kidman finally didn't hold back, "I read the script..."
"I will talk to them!"
Seeing Jinsli nodding, Nicole Kidman breathed a sigh of relief. Having been in Hollywood for so many years, she is still a vase attached to Cruise, knowing that any opportunity is extremely important.
On the outskirts of Beverly Hills, in a small villa, Naomi Watts is hanging her voice in the garden. This is an indispensable item every day. The young director who is gradually alienated from her is because of the fire. reason. She gave her the promise of a heroine, but with the other's character, if she is not good enough, she will definitely be abandoned.
There has been a lot of news about "Chicago" in the media recently. Naomi Watts has already got the exact news from the agent, Nancy Josephson, and the film is about to start formal preparations. The audition will be placed in front of all preparations, because Duke set aside four to five months of singing and dancing rehearsal time for all actors.
Can I finally get this role?
In Roxy, she has a natural advantage over others, but Naomi Watts knows very well that if you want to get this role, you can't solve it by dealing with the director. She needs to pay in singing, dancing and acting. More effort.
After staying in Hollywood for so long, she actually saw it very clearly. If one's own conditions are not enough, the heavyweight characters in the film can definitely not be obtained if they are willing to take off their clothes and sleep with others.
In the theater in the West End of London, Catherine Zeta Jones walked out of the manager's office and returned to the dressing room. She turned a blind eye to the eyes around her, and silently packed her belongings. She was no longer an actor in this drama.
Last week. After receiving an audition invitation from Los Angeles, she desperately quit her current job. Determined to go to Hollywood again, and never return to London if it fails!
"It's just going to auditions. Hollywood is highly competitive and it is very likely that you will not get a role."
Catherine Zeta Jones' eyes turned slightly, and the voice of other people was caught in her ears. The speaker was Rachel who had torn her face since last year. Even though this woman pretends to be calm, she can tell from the other person's face that it is full of various negative emotions such as envy, resentment, and jealousy.
It seemed that he had noticed Zeta Jones' eyes, Rachel looked at it without hesitation, and met him. Sarcastically, "Am I wrong? Even if you climb on Duke Rosenberg's bed, you may not pass the audition!"
Zeta Jones suddenly smiled and said in almost the same tone, "Unfortunately, you won't even have the chance to climb into his bed, Miss Rachel Vichy!"
After finishing speaking, she ignored the group of psychologically distorted losers in the dressing room. Holding a cardboard box, she strode out and walked all the way to the back door of the theater before stopping to get in a car waiting here.
"It's done?"
In the driving seat is a woman not much older than Bizeta? Seeing her nodded, she started the car and drove towards Kensington, "Kate, are you ready?"
"I have been preparing for this for half a year!"
This is the agent she has just changed from the United States. Zeta Jones looked ahead and said very firmly, "From the day Duke Rosenberg found me, I have been preparing for the audition. I will To win Velma’s audition, I must succeed! I want to become Hollywood, a star that the whole world is watching!"
"A few suggestions," the female agent said timely, "Want to hear?"
"Go ahead, Vivienne."
"Many people are not optimistic about Duke Rosenberg's new movie, even me." Vivienne turned to look at Zeta Jones, "I know you also have hesitation in your heart, but Kate, for any For an actor without a big hit, working with Duke Rosenberg is a huge opportunity."
Zeta Jones had been looking at Vivienne, she knew there was still something under the agent.
"I dare not say that Duke Rosenberg can match Spielberg, but if he is the director in the front row in Hollywood, I believe no one will refute it. Even if he occasionally fails, it will not affect the industry. He is not the type he is good at. As long as he returns to the commercial mainstream, there will be countless production companies that want to pay for his films."
The car stopped at a red light, and the female agent turned to stare at Zeta Jones, "Kate, do you know what this means to you?"
Before she could answer, Vivienne said, "As long as you can have a good relationship with Duke Rosenberg and win his favor, you will have countless opportunities in the future."
"I know what to do!"
Compared to getting a certain role, it seems to be better for her to conquer a major Hollywood director? (To be continued...)
