Chapter 403 Released
Wang Shu didn't have much choice when he came to Hollywood, and Matt Damon was also kind. Whether it was the acquisition price of the script, the director's salary, or other conditions, he was very generous.
So the two had a great conversation and reached an intention to cooperate.
Matt Damon didn't want to delay the change, and at the same time he wanted to prepare the movie as soon as possible, so he signed the contract with Wang Shu the next day.
Then, arrange people to handle the pre-production work before the movie starts, such as location, scenery, actors, etc.
Matt Damon is a popular star in Hollywood, and his every move is followed by many entertainment media.
Therefore, the news that Matt Damon will act as a producer to prepare a movie spread like wildfire.
However, most people only know that Matt Damon will be planning to make a movie, but they don’t know what movie he will be planning to make.
"Shu, the movie Matt Damon is about to make is your script, right?" Monica called Wang Shu.
She also has ideas for Wang Shu's script and has been taking action these days. She has been contacting producers she is familiar with and plans to persuade them to cooperate with Wang Shu.
Unexpectedly, Matt Damon started too quickly. She had just made some progress and the other party had already settled.
"Yes, it is the biographical script mentioned before." Wang Shu did not hide it, but answered truthfully, "Matt Damon is interested in this script, but I have not found any cooperation. "I hit it off right away"
After receiving the affirmative answer from Wang Shu, Monica felt a sense of loss in her heart. She was no longer young and her flowering period could not last. several years.
Although at her age, it is considered the golden period for actresses to win Oscars in Hollywood, but after the golden period, the flowers fade.
If you never encounter a good opportunity during the golden period, it will be difficult to win an Academy Award in your lifetime.
Monica has age anxiety, knowing that her youth is at the end of her golden years and time waits for no one.
It was difficult to get good opportunities before, but now it is just a chance to meet Wang Shu, who is powerful and new to Hollywood.
This period is when she has the best chance to cooperate with Wang Shu.
If Wang Shu becomes famous in Hollywood, then everything will be difficult to say.
She clearly knows that Wang Shu's art films have something to say. She went to the three major European film festivals for the first time and won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, and then won the Best Actress at Cannes and the Venice Film Festival. Festival Best Director Award.
These all show that Wang Shu is a director who has the ability to win the best actress award.
She also knew that Matt Damon must also know this because he moved so fast.
Biographical film script, Best Director at Venice Film Festival, Best Actress at Cannes Film Festival.
These all show that compared to many directors who have been in Hollywood for many years, Wang Shu is still more capable of winning the Academy Award for Best Actor and Best Actress, even if he is new to Hollywood.
Although Wang Shu is a Chinese director, he may not understand European and American culture.
But the script is a "stock god" script, and there is a saying.
“Well, actually I am also interested in your drama, and I am also contacting a familiar producer to cooperate with you.”
“It’s just that I have just made progress, but it has already I learned that Matt Damon is preparing a movie."
"Guess. It should be the script in your hand."
Monica didn't think it was embarrassing to reveal her thoughts and wanted to hide them, but she spoke frankly.
When Wang Shu heard this, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Monica, if you have any ideas, you can contact Matt Damon."
"This drama The role has not been decided yet."
Monica had this idea in mind when she said this, and then asked: "Shu, is there a role suitable for me?" Wang Shu pondered for a moment and said: "There are two main female characters in this play, the two wives of the male protagonist."
Monica had already read about Jordan Belfort's autobiography before, and knew that the ages of the two female characters did not match her, and then sighed: "These two characters do not belong to me."
Original timeline , the heroine of "The Wolf of Wall Street" is Jordan Belfort's second wife, starring Margot Robbie.
This is an actress born in the 1990s. She was only 23 years old when she starred in "The Wolf of Wall Street".
Margot Robbie also rose to prominence in Hollywood because of this movie.
At the same time, she also participated in the sexy female character in the original "Space Traveler" who rejected the male protagonist at the beginning and then gave a signal to the male protagonist.
However, her most famous work is playing Harley Quinn in "Suicide Squad".
It is undeniable that "Barbie" in which she starred also achieved extremely high box office.
But this movie is a very contemporary feminist work, and it achieved a huge box office by reaping the dividends of feminism.
Therefore, in terms of global popularity, it has to be the role of Harley Quinn.
Although the actress who plays Jordan Belfort's first wife is a post-85s actress, she is also much younger than Monica in terms of age.
In addition, "The Wolf of Wall Street" is mainly based on Jordan Belfort's youth, so these two characters are not suitable for Monica in any aspect.
Of course, it’s not that there are no roles suitable for Monica, but the role is too small and meaningless.
Wang Shu was silent for a moment. He initially said that the role had not been decided yet, which was just a prevarication.
Monica and Matt Damon know each other, and if he really gets a role based on their personal relationship, he won't say much.
After all, the casting rights are in the hands of Matt Damon and the investors.
Of course, if the script is modified, it is not impossible to create a character suitable for Monica.
But for Wang Shu, there is no need to do anything extra.
Monica saw that Wang Shu did not answer and knew that the other party had no intention of modifying the script, so she sighed: "It seems that I have no chance with this script."
Wang Shu seemed to not understand what Monica was saying and never made a promise.
Any other director might have been eager to make a promise in order to please Monica, a global flower, and to enhance "friendship."
Then they use this excuse to hook up as time goes by.
However, Wang Shu is not this kind of director.
Monica saw that Wang Shu still had no special reaction, and she already had self-doubt, doubting that her charm was no longer there.
Then I thought about my age and felt sad.
However, this age also has charm and mature charm, which is also very attractive to many people.
Monica knows this.
Wang Shu was like this, she could only blame it on Wang Shu liking young girls like Little Plum, and not liking mature women like her.
Monica sighed helplessly, then continued chatting with Wang Shu for a while and hung up the phone.
As the days pass, as the promotion of the American version of "The Tuner" comes to an end, it is time to release it in theaters.
