America’s Big Hero

Chapter 90: : Casting

"Mr. John McTiernan, please, let me introduce you, this is my boss, Sean, Mr. Sean K. Rockefeller," Norris walked away with a thin white man Come in.

"Hello, sir." Hearing the surname Rockefeller, John McTiernan's face unconsciously had a trace of tension. This surname means too many things in the United States.

"Hello." Sean shook hands with the other party and looked at it carefully. He looked very young in his 30s. As for his appearance, he couldn't tell anything.

John McTiernan graduated from Juilliard with a theatre major and later studied camera at the American Film Institute.

This guy became famous later on because he directed "Predator" and "Die Hard", so Sean has a slightly vague impression.

But at present, I have only filmed commercials, and I have nothing to take away, so I cherish the opportunity to have a company invite him to shoot a movie this time.

After a brief chat, I took over the script and read it carefully.

In Sean's impression, many famous directors were born as photographers. In my memory, there are Liu Weiqiang, Du Kefeng, Zhang Yimou, Gu Changwei, King of Sunglasses, etc. There are also many great directors from abroad who are photographers.

After John McTiernan read the script, Sean raised his focus and requirements for the filming of the film.

As a rookie director who has never made a movie, John is very interesting and has the consciousness to serve the father of the gold master. He has been expressing his thoughts according to Sean's request.

When Sean said that the bank could provide the vault, the police would play in their true colors, and that he had a professional security company in his hand to cooperate with the performance, John was also taken aback.

As a commercial director, John doesn't have a strong pursuit of art. He knows how to attract audiences and make things so audiences like them. He stayed in Sean's villa all day, and discussed with Sean some ideas for shooting and editing. Some scripts are too difficult to shoot, or things that are not pleasing to achieve higher capital utilization.

A commercial is only a few tens of seconds or less, and John is also very knowledgeable about how to reduce unnecessary shooting.

Overall, Sean was very satisfied, and signed a filming contract with John directly at night, with the director's salary of $100,000.

The director is done, and the rest goes directly to the casting work. In this regard, the company has its own casting director, and it has been screened for two rounds. There is a lot less information in front of Sean and director John.

Looking at the person who pushed in the door, Sean blinked in amazement, how could this guy come?

Reaching out and flipping through the information, he saw Nicolas Cage's name below. He leaned his head to Norris's ear and asked, "How much does this guy get paid? How could he be willing to come?"

Sean clearly remembers that this guy only degenerated into the king of bad films in the later period. Could it be that Nicholas Cage has a bad film system now?

Or, do you want to fire this movie?

"He doesn't get paid well now." Norris gave Sean a strange look, he didn't expect Sean to know this unknown junior, "He has only starred in two movies, and the other roles are based on his uncle. This guy changed his name in order to prove that he is indeed capable, in fact, who in the circle does not know about him as an Italian gang, otherwise he would not be able to participate in so many films." Norris said with a smile.

"Perhaps, it was to prove myself, so I avoided Italy to help out to pick up the film. Young people always feel that they are omnipotent."

Sean nodded and didn't speak. He was acting as the second generation. He started high and also received some criticism, which is normal.

Watching Cage communicate with John, Sean suddenly interjected: "Let's do a performance."

Cage was stunned for a moment, completely unaware of Sean's position, but he dared to talk directly into the director's mouth, but he was still serious.

"Almost laughed out loud," Sean said.

Cage grinned and retracted it immediately, raising his hand to cover it up.

"Fortunately, I held back."

Cage's raised hand scratched his head.

"Finally I can't stand it anymore."

"Pfft." Cage twitched and grinned.

"Laugh out loud."

"Hahahahaha!" Cage opened his mouth and laughed loudly.

"Not bad!" Sean raised his hand and snapped his fingers, "That's the smell."

Cage put away his smile and looked confused, not knowing what was wrong with Sean.

"Just you, I like it!" Sean raised his finger and pointed at Cage.

Cage suddenly looked at the director with a face full of surprise. Seeing the director nodded with a smile, he immediately waved his fist in excitement. This is because he had won the role himself from the protection of his family, so he was unhappy.

"Thank you, sir." Cage didn't know what Sean's name was, so he stood up and bowed deeply.

Sean smiled and nodded.

After Cage left, a few more came in behind, none of which Sean was familiar with, so he didn't interrupt, and waited until a man with dyed blond hair walked in.

Sean's eyes lit up, and he flipped through the information in his hand again. Sure enough, it was him, Bruce Willis.

What makes Sean funny is that Bruce Willis actually has hair at this time. It seems that this guy has not yet realized the meaning of "I'm bald and stronger".

Bruce Willis was 30 years old at this time, and he was performing plays on Broadway most of the time. Of course, he also played some role-playing roles in some movies. According to the normal trajectory, he will be in the role in a few months. His famous TV series "Blue Moonlight Detective Agency".

"Do you know why you haven't been successful until you are 30?" Sean suddenly interrupted again, and John immediately shut up and looked over.

"Me?" Bruce pursed his lips and thought for a while before answering, "My acting isn't good enough."

"Wrong!" Sean slapped the desktop again~www.wuxiamtl.com~ startled everyone, "It's because you haven't met the person who shaved you... shaving your hair!"

John: ? ? ?

Bruce looked left and right, not knowing what expression he should show at this moment, he was very polite.

"Shave your hair off, then this role is yours," Sean said with a stern face.

"I..." Bruce looked at the director for help, he was completely dumbfounded now.

John didn't know what the **** Sean was doing, but he was the father of the gold master, so he nodded with a smile: "Yes, I think your bald head is more in line with the character's temperament."

"Okay, okay, sir." Bruce nodded, hesitantly asked, "Does that mean, this character..."

"Yes, come and sign the contract tomorrow." Sean made the decision directly.

Walking out of the room, Bruce still didn't react too much. He was very happy to be selected, that is, some...

So bald.
