Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw
Chapter 257
"Director Kevin, hello, I'm Leonardo DiCaprio."
As soon as they met, Leonardo took the initiative to introduce himself.
As a child who grew up in a special family, his initiative is very strong.
This naturally involves actively seeking out opportunities.
Coming to Steve Kevin is one of them.
As for Leonardo's own greatest strength, he knows this very well.
He is handsome and popular with women, and he also has acting skills that are unusual at his age.
"I'm going to continue filming at two o'clock in the afternoon, and you commissioned Tobey Maguire to come to me, is there something wrong?"
Kevin was straight to the point.
Seeing the little plum in this period with his own eyes, Kevin can also be regarded as a dream come true.
I have to say that the little plum at this time is really tender out of the water, no wonder it is so popular with women.
Of course, want to see and want to see.
Kevin would never give him any special treatment because of this curiosity.
For so long in the United States, Kevin has become accustomed to measuring everything by interests.
Leonardo's intentions, he is very clear.
An actor, coming to a famous director, can not have anything else except for the role.
However, the current Leonardo's small fresh meat appearance made Kevin really can't think of a role suitable for him at once.
Now Leonardo, the most suitable to play is the kind of romance film male protagonist or some youth movies and the like.
That kind of commercial big production, to put it mildly.
The current Leonardo simply does not fit.
For Leonardo's subsequent development, Kevin knows very well.
The big sale of the Titanic did not actually make him soar.
It wasn't until 2002 that he starred in Steven Spielberg's film Impunity that it took off.
He then won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in 2004, commonly known as the Golden Globe actor.
And then it got out of hand.
However, throughout Xiao Lizi's acting career, there is really not such a pure commercial film.
All more or less carry what film critics call artistry.
This conflicts with Kevin's directorial philosophy.
"Director Kevin, I want to be the leading actor in your next movie."
Leonardo looked serious.
Kevin just smiled softly and responded:
"Do you know how many people want to be the leading actor in my movie?"
"As long as I let the wind go, even if I am a superstar, I will not hesitate to reduce my salary to play the protagonist of my new movie."
"Why do you want me to choose you?"
Although Leonardo is bold enough, this is not a reason Kevin gave him the leading actor in the movie.
Leonardo was not disappointed, but was pleasantly surprised.
Through Kevin's words, he got an important message.
For who the male protagonist of his movie is, in fact, Kevin does not care about the attitude.
What is needed now is that he can give Kevin a reason enough to give him the leading actor.
That being the case, Leonardo directly gave the best conditions he could give.
"My agent contract time is very short, I can freely sign with other companies at any time, and I am willing to sign a long-term contract with Sunrise Films!"
Leonardo was able to get the Titanic movie, and his agent contributed a lot.
Unfortunately, after about a month and a half of the movie's release, Leonardo really can't see what miracles the Titanic can create.
Even if the situation is good, it will return to the extent of the sky.
Yes, normal people who would have thought that the box office of the Titanic could be stable for half a year.
Only two or three months, the Titanic is still in a loss-making state.
He also doesn't have any good ideas for the future.
The defeat of the Titanic made him less trustful of his agent, and he had no other resources on hand.
He had to fend for himself and come out in search of opportunities.
Leonardo's brokerage contract?
Kevin was immediately surprised.
This is also a gift of money to him.
Unfortunately, now he can't see this money.
He vaguely remembers that Leonardo was ranked thirteenth on the Forbes Global Rich List of Actors in 2016 or 2015.
Revenue of $29 million.
Even if it expands a little, it will be fifty million dollars.
In terms of brokerage contracts, so-so made in ten million dollars.
In this way, can you make tens of millions of dollars in ten years?
Although it is also a big number.
However, compared with Kevin's industry, it is still only a small number.
This is the gap between the actor and the capital.
In terms of Kevin's current size in Hollywood, it can be regarded as a capital title.
Looking at Leonardo, Kevin thought for a while, and then suddenly smiled:
"The agent contract is not necessary, you are very good, if my movie needs a male lead like you, I will let people contact you."
Saying that, Kevin put on the appearance of sending off guests.
Seeing this, Leonardo had to leave here with Tobey Maguire.
···
The two drove to a restaurant near Hollywood.
After ordering a bunch of food, Leonardo ate happily, which made Maguire, who was originally going to comfort Leonardo, suddenly a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking:
"Leonardo, was rejected by Director Kevin, aren't you depressed at all?"
"I'm ready to be rejected, and next, I'll find a way to come step by step."
"Today is just to make Director Kevin familiar with me."
As he spoke, Leonardo brought the fried chicken to his mouth.
As a star, weight management has always been a very serious matter, but Leonardo is now at a growing age, eating will not be fat, only converted into more energy, don't pay too much attention for the time being.
"It's yours, Leonardo."
"However, if you are like this, will director Steve Kevin really choose you later?"
"Who knows, but if you do it, you may choose me, and if you don't do it, you must not choose me, right?"
This quite reasonable sentence made Tobey Maguire nod his head repeatedly.
Then, after discovering that there was not much fried chicken left on the table, he let out a wail:
"Damn, you leave me some."
Say, from Leonardo's hand, take a large chicken leg.
The food that is grabbed is always the most fragrant.
····
On the other hand, Kevin, who rejected Leonardo, is still filming.
However, Leonardo's appearance still moved his mind to some extent.
After carefully thinking about the movie suitable for Leonardo, Kevin suddenly found that he had missed a few big IPs.
Marvel is a comic book IP.
Harry Potter is the fiction IP.
But beyond that, there are animation IPs.
Among them, the most famous are Pokemon, Transformers, and special forces.
As soon as he thought of this, Kevin immediately called Dawson to arrange someone to investigate some relevant information.
As soon as they met, Leonardo took the initiative to introduce himself.
