Chapter 224 The role of Tomb Raiders is finalized

Huayi.

Lin Chao, Sophie Maya, and David Paul, the three main actors who have been confirmed, are sitting in the crew office selecting resumes.

As for the other leading actor Gu Yang, who plays the younger brother, Wen Tao is currently trying to work overtime to film the scenes of "Painted Skin" to make time for "Tomb Raiders", leaving the scenes of the two female leads behind.

There is nothing they can do to catch Lin Chao. "Tomb Raiders" is so popular that as the most high-profile IP project this year, actors from major companies want to appear in it.

Even if it is a cannon fodder role, everyone is willing to give it a try, not to mention that the main roles such as Fatty, Pan Zi, and Third Uncle have not yet been decided.

It is yet to be determined how many Chinese actors the three main roles will attract. They finally found out today.

James Megan is a bit better. After all, he has worked in commercial blockbusters around the world, experienced ups and downs, and can still treat him normally.

Although Chen Weihua has swept the three major film festivals, after all, it was many years ago, and it was not a commercial film like this, and I have never seen actor resumes sent like snowflakes.

Then Lin Chao and several others were arrested, especially Lin Chao. As the original author and starring actor, it was absolutely impossible for him to escape.

"With so many resumes, should we find someone to screen them again? Isn't this too much?"

"Director, what we are doing now is to look at the appearance and resume of the person on the resume. It is better to find some people to help with this task, otherwise it will take too long."

He Weihua and James Megan are now overwhelmed by these resumes.

Three characters, so many people coming, and there will be new characters in the next film, and they will never make the casting public.

This was so tiring that it was inhumane work. In the past few days, both of them had almost developed a new problem - face blindness.

The two looked at each other, called in the assistant director who was responsible for the preliminary screening outside, and handed over the resumes that they had not yet read, and asked them to review them after screening.

The casting process for "Tomb Raiders" lasted for more than a week before it was over.

In the end, Fatty's casting was decided on a Chinese kung fu actor, Jiang Tao, whose martial arts skills were just right for Fatty Wang, who was flexible and not weak in strength.

Da Kui chose Mike Lee, a Chinese-Australian tough guy, and his big build fit perfectly with Da Kui's image.

The third uncle chose Wang Lei, an old Chinese drama star and a life-threatening uncle.

Pan Zi chose Yu Du, a handsome guy who retired from the Chinese army and moved to the entertainment industry, which is very consistent with the original Pan Zi's character.

As for Wu Xie's assistant, there are no scenes, but the ever-present Wang Meng chose a beautiful Chinese-American Taylor Wu.

This Taylor Wu is trying to make it easier for their "Tomb Raiders" to enter the American market.

As an adventure action TV series, it is definitely necessary to join the set in advance for physical training and martial arts training.

After the casting was completed, Chen Weihua and James Megan sent all the actors, except Gu Yang, who was still busy filming the last few scenes, to the ancient capital of Chang'an for physical training in the Qinling Mountains.

Even Lin Chao and Wang Meng, two novices who had no fighting scenes in the first film, were sent there, euphemistically, to share joys and sorrows and cultivate a common understanding.

Lin Chao originally wanted to take advantage of the training period to go to B Film Academy to study directing, but he was sent to the crew for training.

In the first film "Prince of Lu's Cemetery", Wu Xie was still a completely newbie who didn't know anything. Lin Chao didn't need training at all for such an action scene.

However, since he was going to collaborate on a series, Lin Chao didn't intend to get into trouble with his colleagues on the crew, so he also came to Chang'an.

The underground real-life location of the "Tomb Robbers" series was chosen by the state and Huayi to be outside the Qinling Mountains.

The lush woods and extremely restored scenes made Lin Chao almost think that the country had opened an ancient tomb for them to shoot.

Gu Yang arrived at the base half a month later. To be honest, Gu Yang's image still matches that of a younger brother. The only shortcoming is that his skin is not fair enough and his skin is not good enough.

Therefore, in addition to intensive training, Gu Yang was also given a whitening and skin care package by James Megan, which made Lin Chao laugh at him every day.

In late September, Lin Chao, as an idler on the set of "Tomb Raiders", finally left at Wen Tao's call.

His first movie "Manslaughter" is about to be released.

As Lin Chao's first starring film, its performance is related to Lin Chao's future development in the film industry.

The October release deadline has not yet come, and Huayi's promotion has come out.

[The wait has finally come for today. Ever since "Dragon" ended, there haven't been any good movies and TV shows to watch. "Manslaughter" is finally going to be released. 】

[God knows how I have spent the past two months. Although there are a large number of film and television dramas online, the quality is actually not as good as "Swordsman Jiang Hu". 】

[Don’t talk about that shitty thing in "Swords and Swords", Xinghai is really awesome, he actually dares to cheat, start high and go low. 】

[Huang Yu, the Taishan Beidou in martial arts dramas, is no longer good. He is going downhill. Fortunately, Jin Guliang and Wen Hengkong were born and saved China's martial arts. 】

[I never expected that "Swordsman" was so good at the beginning, on par with "Dragon", but ended up being so bad later on. 】

[It is said that Mr. Huang only wrote half of "Swords and Swords", and the other half was added by the screenwriter Xinghai himself, so the quality in the later stage was low. 】

[Vocal, is it real or fake? If this melon is kept true, I will eat it. 】

[It's most likely true. Who wouldn't say Huang Yu's previous "Heroes of the Tianshan Mountains" is a classic? Even if it was the pinnacle work, the later "Swords and Swords" shouldn't be so stretched. 】

[That’s what I said, but Huang Yu didn’t finish his story, so why did he sell it to Xinghai? He's not short of money either, so why would he sell half of it to Xinghai? 】

[It’s hard to say this. Regardless of whether Huang Yu wrote the entire script, Xinghai is quite disgusting. 】

[Indeed, they must know half of the story. Even if not half, they also know the plot in advance, but they still filmed it just to make money. 】

[That is, I have wasted my video membership fee. Can I report it to the department and accuse them of fraud? 】

[Fraud, people are now filming a celebrity love variety show, aren't you very popular with people? 】

[Bullshit, I said a month ago that I would make a celebrity romance variety show, but I just said it for two days and then there was no sound. 】

[Unfortunately, I thought at the time that after "Running Man" ended, I would have another variety show to take over, but now there is nothing. 】

[Oops, after watching "Manslaughter" forbearing, Huayi's "Everyone is Accelerating" is about to start its second season. Moreover, Huayi has no dramas yet. 】

"Manslaughter" began to be promoted online, taking away the popularity of blockbusters. Chen Lanying had noticed it a long time ago.

Did their celebrity love show disappear for so long just to wait for this opportunity?
