[US Entertainment] Actor

"Huh..." Jumping off the treadmill with a lunge, Ebert took a deep breath, holding on to the wall with one hand to calm down his still violent heartbeat.Bruce quickly handed over a towel, Ebert wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the serious fitness trainer.

"The current strength should be able to meet the requirements of filming." The fitness coach frowned slightly, "But this is only for muscle training. Besides, you have to lose at least 10 pounds of weight, otherwise the horse's It is difficult for your body to bear your weight and the high-intensity competition in the movie at the same time. So you may need additional training during this period."

Ebert patted his chest lightly and nodded calmly.

During this period, Ebert experienced the most intense training in his life.In the morning, he trained his muscles and lost weight under the guidance of professionals. In the afternoon, he went to a racetrack in the suburbs of Los Angeles for professional equestrian training. Although the crew invited professional horse jockeys Gary Steven and Chris McCarthy Len plays the role and mentors the actors, but for Ebert and the rest of the cast, playing up to the game is not an easy task.

His whole body was falling apart.

If it is purely training, there may be various unpredictable risks in the process of horse galloping. Although the crew has taken comprehensive protective measures, in order for the actors to perform with confidence, every actor Still got a rather expensive life insurance.

In the process of equestrian training, Ebert met the other two protagonists of the film-Jeff Bridges and Chris Cooper. Jeff played a middle-aged rich man who lost his son in the movie. He is the owner of the horse "Sea Biscuit", Chris plays a wandering cowboy, he assumes the responsibility of horse trainer, and Rhett Pollard, played by Ebert, is of course the riding horse of "Sea Biscuit". Teacher, the three of them worked together to help "Sea Biscuit" win the horse race.

In the ranking of leading actors, Ebert's name is placed first. Although he is the youngest and the youngest among the three leading actors, in the current promotional operation of Hollywood movies, young actors often need to shoulder the burden. It is understandable that Ebert is placed first in the responsibility of driving the box office.

Jeff Bridges is 52 years old this year, and he belongs to the backbone of Hollywood male stars. Although he was born as a child actor, he has not been very popular in his life, but his acting skills have always been recognized by academics and film critics.From the 20s to the present, Jeff Bridges has been nominated for 70 Oscars. Although he has not won, it has also allowed audiences and professionals to see the potential of this actor.In Ebert's mind, Jeff didn't really win his first Oscar winner until 4, when Sandra Bullock, who was ten years younger than him, was the best actress in the same year.

The other leading actor, Chris Cooper, is also good. Unlike Jeff Bridges, Chris played mostly supporting roles in the movie. His most impressive role is "Adapted Screenplay". The Orchid Thief", in that movie, he competed with Nicolas Cage and Meryl Streep without any slack, and finally relied on this movie to get an Oscar supporting role, which can be regarded as a testament to his strength testimony.The film has not yet been released in North America on a large scale, but according to the cast and professionals who enjoyed the film in advance at the film festival, the film will definitely be a big hit at next year's Oscars.

Ebert thought it was a great opportunity to work with these two talented actors.

Of course, Jeff Bridges and Chris Cooper don't necessarily think so.During the official meeting, although the two actors had a gentle attitude and gave Ebert great respect and encouragement, Ebert could also detect the traces of inquiry and distrust under those two pairs of wise eyes.

Ebert laughed it off.He doesn't think his good performance in "White Night Chaser" can change everyone's opinion. Compared with other young actors, his qualifications are still a bit shallow, which may attract many doubts and contempt for him. , It is difficult to change overnight.

"Ahhhhhh..." After bouncing on the horse for several hours, Ebert suppressed the discomfort in his stomach and jumped off the horse. This kind of training has lasted for several days—although Jeff Bridges Adams and Chris Cooper also received similar training, but their training intensity is completely incomparable with Ebert.During this period of training, Ebert did not deliberately control his diet, and even added more protein-rich foods to his menu, but after half a month of special training, Ebert standing on the scale Bert felt light on his body. Looking at the statistics, he lost 15 pounds compared to half a month ago.

Even though he lost weight, Ebert still had a ruddy complexion, exuding vitality all over his body, and his thin abdominal muscles were replaced by firm tendons, coupled with slightly tanned skin, which made him In addition to being elegant, it shows a masculine taste.

At least Lynn was taken aback after seeing Ebert.

The agent, who was over forty years old, touched the soft flesh on his stomach. He didn't know where to put the soft lump, so he could only let it go and let it form a bulging ball on his stomach.He couldn't help but said to Ebert with some jealousy: "I really envy you, youth is capital! The effect of this exercise is really good, your pores seem to be much smaller than before."

This is true, the skin of European and American races is relatively rough, every time celebrities show their faces, they have to apply several thick layers of powder on their faces, which is more destructive to the skin.Ebert has a regular work and rest schedule, and usually pays attention to exercise. In addition to being young, his skin condition is usually much better than those stars who love clubbing. This time, it may be because of the profuse sweating. It's even better than before.

Hearing what Lynn said, Ebert took out his mobile phone and clicked on the picture of Tom Cruise: "This is your peer, only one or two years younger than you. Have you seen his muscles? I heard Said that some of Cruise's difficult scenes were all done by himself. So, dear Lynn, don't make excuses for your laziness, body size has nothing to do with age."

The manager seemed to be struggling with the lump of flesh on his stomach, and he put it down after pinching it, and continued pinching it, as if a child was kneading a ball of plasticine into various shapes.

Ebert couldn't help covering his eyes: "Lyn, can you stop doing such boring things, your white meat is not worth seeing at all, it will only pollute my eyes. The coach is very professional and I can introduce him to you if you need."

"Let's forget it. I'm not a star, so I don't need to embarrass myself so much."

Lynn came here this time just to confirm Ebert's situation. In two days, Ebert will join the filming of "The Age of Pentium". This time Bruce will replace Lynn to prepare all his affairs.

"Judging from your training during this period, I'm afraid this shooting will not be too easy. Are you ready?"

Ebert smiled confidently. Most of the time he behaved more rationally and calmly than his peers, provided that his matter had nothing to do with the movie.When it comes to movies, Ebert is always extremely confident. He is used to expressing himself and showing his differences with excellent acting skills.Regardless of past life or present life, his life is closely linked with colorful screens, and he is destined to be born for movies.

"Of course." This is how he replied to Lynn, and there was no falsehood in this sentence.In his previous life, he once starred in a desert island survival movie. From the beginning to the end, he did not use a double. He experienced eating raw meat, digging the soil with his bare hands until his fingernails almost fell off, and even did not take a bath for half a month. In the end, the movie did not allow him to win an authoritative actor trophy, but the turning point of his entire career started from there.

Ebert's attitude towards movies is very pious. Even though he has countless opportunities now, he knows which movie is more likely to become popular in the future, and he also knows that a certain actor who is only a small supporting role can stand at the highest award in the show business in the future On stage, but he will not deliberately force a role in a movie that has received numerous praises.He believes that everything depends on human effort, and he has a sincere attitude towards every movie he starred in, and uses his best performance to understand the role, even the "The Newcomer's Arrival" Eber Te also thinks that he played well, but he only played a little less time.

Before leaving, Ebert accidentally saw a newly released newspaper, and the entertainment section of the newspaper happened to mention the news about "The Pentium Era".

His original intention was just to pass the time, but after seeing the first paragraph of text, Ebert's originally stretched brows gradually frowned, forming a tangled Sichuan character.The newspaper first analyzed the scale of "The Age of Pentium", emphasizing that this is a big production jointly produced by Universal Pictures, DreamWorks and Marshall Film Production Company. The script is adapted from the best-selling novel "Sea Biscuit: An American Legend" , this novel has a good reader base in the United States, and if it is adapted, it will definitely attract a large number of audiences who are interested in the original work.However, as soon as the painting style changed, the newspaper quickly shifted its attention to the actor part. The newspaper showed great expectations and praise for the performances of the old drama brother-in-law Bridges and Chris Cooper, but once mentioned When Ebert, the youngest of the three starring roles, the newspaper's evaluation was full of malice.

They think Universal and DreamWorks chose Ebert Dawson as a complete fool, and firmly believe that he will ruin the film: "It is very difficult to understand why the studio finally chose Ebert Dawson instead of this year's Tobey Maguire, who became a big hit with "Spider-Man" and also performed well in niche literary films, Tobey is a hundred times better than Ebert from any point of view. Is it the only criterion for film companies to choose actors now? Is it just a pretty face? If Anthony Hopkins, Sean Penn or Al Pacino were born 30 years later, they may never make it in Hollywood!"

Regarding Ebert's performance in "White Night", this newspaper swears that it all comes from Ebert's crude and endless hype. The influence in the movie, so that Ebert can seek more follow-up resources for himself.

"Look, his ability to get the leading actor in "The Age of Pentium" is an ironclad proof. In the past two years, no young man in Hollywood has gone faster than Albert Dawson! Why is he? It's just a ridiculous movie. "Girl Cheerleader's Adolescence" and "White Night Chase" which doesn't take much drama? This is simply the funniest joke of the year!"

Ebert frowned, and his lips were bright red because of biting.He crumpled up the newspaper and threw it on the ground, resting his hands on his forehead, let out a faint sigh.

The next moment, he glanced at his fingers that had been rough from holding the rein for a long time, and suddenly calmed down.

Want to see his jokes?That depends on his permission first!

Ebert picked up the crumpled newspaper from the ground, threw it with both hands, and the gray and black thing drew a beautiful arc in the air, and fell into the trash can with a "bang".
