Smith, opposite you is an alien who invaded the earth and just killed his comrade-in-arms.

Sitting behind the monitor, Duke frowned slightly after Will Smith performed a segment. The future Uranus superstar's acting skills were indeed bad enough. The aliens have been captured by you, please show the appropriate emotions.

If he can't even be basic funny, it's just a replacement.

Fortunately, black people are born with no lack of humor, or perhaps it is the instinct of a hip-hop singer. Will Smith pondered a little, and counted his feet in the air in front of him, with a strange cry in his mouth, You want to invade the earth? You are invincible, aren't you?

Come on! Come on!

As before, his expression was extremely close and exaggerated, and the performance was obviously too hard, but it was suitable for such a scene.

When Will Smith's performance was over, Duke nodded to casting director Thomson, who gave an answer that he would be notified as soon as possible, and his audition was temporarily over.

When he walked out of the audition room, Will Smith had no confidence in his heart. Although he wanted to transform into movies, he knew that his acting skills were really bad, but he did not give up. He discussed coping strategies with the agent who came over in a low voice. This film is extremely important to him. This is the masterpiece of the famous commercial director Duke Rosenberg. It is regarded by many media as a hot film in the summer of next year. If his film career starts with a blockbuster film, The road to future development will certainly be much smoother.

The film directed by the saboteur has won the popularity of Keanu Reeves, Uma Thurman and Christopher Lee. Will Smith knows very well that countless actors and actresses who are waiting for the top want to catch up with him. 's hitchhiker.

It wasn't just Will Smith who had this idea, Nicole Kidman and his assistant walked into the Warners Studios' Independence Day studio thinking about how to get the role and let themselves Is there really a blockbuster movie?

As the agent said, although she successfully entered Hollywood as Mrs. Cruise, she did not have any works that she could produce, and the code name of Mrs. Cruise gradually made her hate and disgust. The ability to completely establish a foothold in Hollywood is what she is eager to do.

For this audition, Nicole Kidman even had a big fight with her husband. After being declined by Fox, Tom Cruise forced her to withdraw from the audition. As a result, the two people who were in a cold war recently have a relationship. got worse.

Thinking of the beliefs she was forced to change, and the imprisonment of her arrogant husband, Nicole Kidman suddenly had the idea that if she could be independent in Hollywood, she would kick out Tom Cruise.

Will the character get it? Nicole Kidman's face is gloomy. According to Pat Kingsley's analysis, her biggest rival is her friend. She knows that Naomi Watts has a complicated relationship with director Duke Rosenberg. But they will not give up on their own initiative, opportunities always need to be fought for.

She once gave up a chance, and it was in the late 1980s, when the producer of Ghost Story asked her to go to a house party with Demi Moore, she refused, and Demi Moore went, The result is also obvious for the heroine, who has directly become one of the hottest actresses in Hollywood today.

Opportunity is more important than acting and appearance. She understands this sentence very well. Anyone who blocks her opportunity is an enemy!

This way, Miss Kidman.

Under the guidance of the staff, Nicole Kidman walked into a waiting room and waited for her audition time.

Entering the wide room, her eyes quickly swept over everyone. The three women waiting here all have similar characteristics to her, blonde or brown hair, mature and beautiful.

Then, Nicole Kidman's eyes fell on a petite figure. In the past, the other party would definitely greet him affectionately, and she would also return with a bright smile. After all, the two belonged to drama school. Classmates, Girls' Generation also had some friendships and took care of each other in Hollywood.

But now, she is not in the mood to go up to say hello, and the other party has no intention of coming over to greet each other. They will be the most direct competitors!

Every opportunity in Hollywood counts, and everyone who gets in the way has to be kicked out, Nicole Kidman believes it, and so does Naomi Watts, from the rumored Nicole Kidd From the moment Man took on the role of White House spokesperson, the two people who had been in close contact with each other in the past had a tacit understanding and stopped talking on the phone, and gradually cut off contact.

Naomi Watts even received words from other Australian gang actors to persuade her to voluntarily give up the role, but she rejected it.

The news is not sure where it came from, but Naomi is not going to give up. Besides, why is she the one who gave up? At the risk of being almost disfigured by the fire, she gradually got closer to a rising director and had the long-awaited opportunity, but what about Nicole Kidman?

She is Mrs. Cruise, she has a foothold in Hollywood, and CAA's agent takes care of her. She has many more opportunities than her. Why can't she be the one who voluntarily gave up?

Naomi Watts turned her head and looked at the place where Nicole Kidman was sitting. It happened that Nicole Kidman also looked over. The eyes of the two collided with each other, and there was no expression for each other. Never look at each other again.

It is impossible to make concessions, not only the two of them, but also the other two actresses sitting here will not give in. If you take a step back, there may be an abyss behind them, and they may be trampled by countless competitors.

The preparatory work is busy in the early stage. Duke can't invest too much time on the actors. Now he is not a rookie before. With two super-selling movies as capital, even if he doesn't say anything and ask for anything, the rest of the crew will also Will take the initiative to cooperate with him, not only Will Smith, but also the audition of the four actresses, all tried to be compressed into one day.

What's your opinion?

It was late when the audition ended, and Duke frowned and asked the others, We'll get the cast as soon as possible, and it will take time to negotiate and prepare the cast.

I think Nicole Kidman would be a better fit.

As a representative of Fox, Jon Landau was the first to speak, This role does not need much acting skills, it is enough for her level, and she is well-known and the salary is not too much.

I support Naomi Watts.

First production manager Charles Rowan and second production manager Robin Grande both sided with Duke.

The situation is obvious, but Duke still said, Nicole Kidman has never proved her box office ability, she does have a reputation, but more relying on the identity of Mrs. Cruise, and according to several According to the survey agency's survey feedback on her entry into Hollywood roles, North American audiences did not like him very much.

After finishing speaking, Duke asked the casting director to give Jon Landau an investigative document, and the latter looked at it and nodded, I agree to give up Nicole Kidman.

As a famous producer, there is no doubt about Jon Landau's professionalism. Since Duke has provided detailed data, even if it is based on Fox's investment income considerations, he will not insist on using relatively high remuneration and relatively average box office appeal. actor.

Let's be here for the time being today.

After Charles Rowan's words, the camera assistant next to him came over to sort out the audition tape. Duke walked out of the audition room with everyone and said to the producer next to him, Robin, although we unanimously approved Will Smith, But his performance is still unconvincing, try to squeeze his salary as much as possible, under $200,000 if possible.

I understand. Robin Grande nodded.

Actors try to reduce their expenses as much as possible, use newcomers and well-known veteran actors as film support, and put more budget into special effects production. In fact, the first two films, Duke also implemented this strategy. These The selling point of the film itself is not in the stars.

Back in the office, Duke simply packed up and was about to go home. Sophia pushed in the door and handed over his cell phone.

Someone called me? Duke asked.

Nicole Kidman's agent, Pat Kingsley, called you and wanted to talk to you.

Hearing Sophia's words, Duke shook his head, It should be Nicole Kidman's audition problem, so he said I was going out to see the scene, and turned it off for me.

An actor named Charlize Theron invited you to her birthday party tonight. Sophia knew Duke, I turned it off because Aunt Leah also called and told you to go back to Santa Moni. Card for dinner.

It's almost time, let's go to get off work

Hearing that it was his mother's call, Duke stopped delaying and picked up his handbag. Are you going? You must be very happy to be a guest mother.

Sorry, a friend asked me to go shopping.

When walking out of the office, Sophia reminded Duke, I almost forgot, Aunt Leah asked you to go to Andrew's acting school to pick up Scarlett Johansson and go back to Santa Monica.

Didn't she come to ask about the audition time at noon? Duke muttered.

I heard from Melanie Sloan that she has an acting class in the afternoon.

While talking, the two walked out of the studio, took a battery car and left Warner Studios, changed into their own cars in the parking lot, and drove in different directions.

According to the information provided by Sophia, Duke quickly found the Andrews School of Performing Arts. In the Los Angeles area, there are so many professional schools like this. The scale of this school seems to be OK. Not only does it have a large courtyard, it serves as a three-story building for the teaching area. The area is also large enough.

Because of the late time, the school seemed a little deserted. Duke parked the car and negotiated with the school guards. Under the leadership of the other party, in a room, he saw him sitting on a chair and playing with himself bored. Little girl with ponytail.

Hi, Scarlett. Duke walked over and said hello.

Come on, Duke!

The little girl didn't recognize her at all, picked up her schoolbag, grabbed his sleeve with the other hand, and walked out of the classroom.
