super actress

It's never too early to make a Hollywood debut.

Some actors even began to appear on film and television screens when they were babies because their family members worked in Hollywood. Many child stars who became famous at a young age entered this industry early because of the influence of their family members.

People with acting talents and goals always hope to enter this industry earlier, because no one knows when a great opportunity will come, and in order to ensure that every opportunity is seized as much as possible, acting experience and talent are also indispensable. Lack.

Casting directors usually reject rookie actors with no acting experience in the first round unless they are so talented.

And these are just some insignificant auditions for supporting roles. For those relatively important roles, newcomers without any experience are not even eligible to enter the first stage of competition.

If a young, beautiful and talented girl wants to be able to get three or four episodes of TV series and supporting roles in movies at the age of 20, then she'd better start filming at the age of 15 or even younger.

Even so, whether she can successfully grab the role depends on luck.

There are only so many job opportunities in Hollywood every year. Even if you fill your resume with extras acting as background boards, the rich content of working experience will increase the chance of success a little bit.

Sometimes that small difference can change the outcome.

In Hollywood, a guest role in three or four episodes may bring an opportunity to be promoted to a permanent role, and a movie with only one scene and one line may bring a contract with an agent who appreciates you.

There are only so many opportunities, so every competition is extremely fierce.

For a newcomer who has nothing but no background and connections, no agent to help, no experience and common sense, the competition is even more brutal.

Applying for a role on the first day of entering the industry, and being able to act in a movie for the first time, such legendary stories that sound like fakes, except for actors with deep family connections and good strength, only 0.01% Possibilities of all kinds come to the lucky ones who have nothing.

And now, Rhea Noren has a chance to be one of those lucky ones.

Rushing home with May, Rhea sat between Ben and May, and they were listening to the explanation of the unexpected guest, Metus Hugh Malloy, on the sofa in the living room.

The man in the suit was sitting on the couch across from them talking, looking very confident and confident, but Rhea noticed that his left index finger on his lap was shaking slightly—

He was tense, more precisely, he was anxious.

"Please listen to me, Mr. Parker, Mrs. Parker, this is definitely a great opportunity for your daughter Rhea."

After talking too much, he licked his lips to relieve his dry mouth, "I met her in the studio, we talked, Rhea is an ambitious girl, she wants to be more than a model- —”

"Actress." May interrupted Harris, "I know what my daughter wants, I'm just curious, Mr. Malloy, when did you meet Rhea."

"Just call me Mytus." Malloy was worried that this seemingly conservative mother would suspect his motives, even though he had already verified his identity, he quickly explained.

"Just two weeks ago, I went to talk about work. At that time, a crew was nearby. I heard that some models were filming, so I went to have a look." He actually found one.

This is also the reason why he flew to New York from Hollywood, where he usually works. He knew about an excellent opportunity in advance from some channels, and in order to maximize his own interests, he needed this girl!

"Two weeks ago."

Mei Jia repeated this sentence with a heavy tone, and she pulled out a little smile and looked at the girl caught between her and Ben, "Riya, don't you want to say something?"

Ben on the other side didn't have the slightest intention of helping, and also urged Rhea with a look of disapproval.

"Mr. Malloy, I said at the time that I needed to talk to my family."

Under their scrutiny, Rhea quickly opened her mouth to divert the focus of her concealment, "You also agreed, so why did you come here in person at this time?"

"Because I know of an opportunity that's perfect for you, Rhea, and there won't be a better opportunity to break into this industry."

Malloy lowered his upper body and brought himself closer to the object of his persuasion. He knew that he must first obtain Rhea's consent and support before continuing to persuade her parents.

"a movie!"

He appropriately raised his voice, wanting to infect the people in front of him with this full of emotion, "There is a movie that has already started casting, and I can send your resume to the audition list."

"What kind of movie?" Ben asked warily, but he still hadn't completely let go of his guard, lest this man who claimed to be a talent scout would trick his daughter into making a tertiary movie.

Yes, Malloy had a business card and an agency, but Ben was skeptical.

Ben Parker was not a young man entering society on his first day, and he was wary of such tricks.

"A movie adapted from a classic classic, remake of the old version." Malloy speeded up his speech, "The producer is still Mario Caesar."

"Wait, you said you were a scout." Mei raised her doubts cautiously, "Shouldn't you sign my daughter to an agent and then talk about work?"

"Mrs. Parker, I am a broker."

The couple's doubts were obvious, but Malloy didn't care, his dark brown to black eyes made him look very sincere.

"If you are willing to look up the information again, you will find that my company has some great achievements in the industry."

"But you said you were a scout."

"Yes, scouting is a profession, but it's also a title."

Malloy deepened the smile on his face, "More precisely, a scout is a guide. Anyone in this circle can be a scout. I found your daughter from a group of models, and I can Say I am the discoverer of Rhea."

He did it on purpose. He did not write a specific occupation on his business card, only his name, contact number and company address.

When she saw that smile, Rhea understood why Malloy first called himself a scout, and then revealed his identity as an agent, because he wanted to gain the trust of her parents by using such a small method of suppressing first and then promoting.

No matter how you look at it, an agent sounds much more reliable than a scout.

"I understand your thoughts, Mr. Parker and Mrs. Parker. Learning is naturally very important. Rhea is still very young, and she is not mature enough to face this industry.

But in fact, 14 years old is already very late for a young and famous child star. If she doesn't start preparing now, she will be far behind other people of the same age after graduating from high school. "

"Modeling on the side, doing photoshoots for magazines—there's a thousand people in Hollywood who have had that experience, and there might be better ones than Rhea."

"If you don't send her to a professional training school, and don't add talents like dancing to her, then you should let her start filming as soon as possible, or at least let her participate in auditions."

Malloy saw that the family was not wealthy, so he didn't point it out directly.

"But going to Los Angeles..." Mei was the first to waver when she heard this, she didn't want her daughter to lag behind others, "That's still too far away from here."

"No, no." Malloy shook his head. "I'm not suggesting that you move to California. Although many parents will do this in order to cultivate child stars, it's not necessary at all."

Ben frowned, he didn't like this calculating man, but for the sake of Rhea, he listened carefully, "Then what do you want us to do?"

Malloy sat up straight, and put his hands together reservedly, "I think Rhea has great potential, and I hope to sign a contract with your daughter."

Then he spoke slowly: "And then we'll talk about Annabelle's audition for Lolita."

""Lolita"?" After listening quietly for a long time, Rhea finally interjected. She didn't expect that the movie Malloy brought her was this one.

"Yes." Malloy answered.

"A daring adaptation! And we can't miss this character, although it's only a supporting role, but I'm sure this has at least 5 minutes of footage in the movie!"

"If you can, I want you to make a decision now so that I can return to Los Angeles with Rhea's resume."

Rhea has read the original novel written by Vladimir Nabokov, and just watched two versions of the adapted film. She vaguely remembers that the new version of "Lolita" was produced in 1997, but she did not expect it to be released in 94 Started casting.

It is precisely because of this that Rhea never expected to use her "prediction" golden finger from the rebirth of China in 2016 to the United States in 1992 to play a big role.

Because she almost has no golden fingers.

First of all, she is an actress who has worked hard for a long time in the Chinese film industry and finally bit her next position. Work took up almost all of her time in her young and beautiful golden age. It is enough to master the information in her circle. Focus on the United States across the ocean.

All kinds of Hollywood gossip information, she also knows the most famous ones, probably not as detailed as the melon passers-by in the entertainment industry.

Angel investment, stock trading, buying copyrights and other major things that must be done in rebirth are even more impossible for her now.

Except for the lack of capital, Rhea didn't even know if "Harry Potter" was written in 1994, and where to find JK Rowling after it was written.

Of course, it is impossible for her to write the themes of novels that will be popular in the future, and it is impossible for a person who can only use the template of argumentative essays to write flowers in English.

So those routines of rebirth basically have no way out for her.

But the life experience and life experience of living one more life are enough to give her many advantages over her peers, and this will definitely increase her competitiveness.

Even if her acting skills are unacceptable here, she still has more than ten years of acting experience, no matter what, it is better than a blank.

After all, being an actor is a profession that she has dedicated most of her life to. When she was young, she was competitive and chasing fame and fortune. After she fell in love with acting, she devoted herself to training, and then she went crazy to complete the role...

She has personally experienced all the ups and downs, and her acting skills have been honed little by little.

Hollywood does have countless talented beauties and rapidly developing film technology, but this does not mean that she has no advantages.

She is now 14-year-old Rhea Noren, young, beautiful, and has countless acting experiences in front of the camera.

Drew Barrymore was cast in "ET" by Spielberg at the age of 6, and she couldn't recite a text when she was really 6 years old;

Natalie Portman was able to play Matilda in "The Killer Is Not So Cold" at the age of 12, but she couldn't play it when she was 12 years old;

Scarlett Johansson performed well in "The Horse Whisperer" at the age of 13 and won multiple nominations. She couldn't do it when she was 13.

But Rhea Noren, who now has past life experience, and even personal experience of violence, is perfectly fine.

She was not a genius actor before, so she will definitely be now. After a long period of struggle and polishing, she has already opened up her acting skills, so from now on, it is impossible to go backwards, only to move forward.

"I see, Mr. Malloy." Ben Parker turned his head to look at his daughter, seeing the eagerness in her eyes, "Can you give us a moment to discuss it?"

Watching Malloy stand up and go to the yard by the door to smoke, Rhea knew that now was her time to convince Ben and May.

"I want to be in a movie."

Speaking of the word movie, Rhea took a light breath. At this fork that decided her future development path, she seemed to have returned to the first time she performed in front of the camera.

"I want to audition, that's my dream, that's what I have to do."

"It's not the same as taking pictures for a magazine."

Ben looked at her seriously, "I don't know this, but I know that a small role in a movie takes several days to shoot.

If you really want to take this path now, you have to leave your family and friends frequently, and be in a closed environment for a long time, disconnected from normal life, can you bear it? "

“More importantly, can you afford to fail after putting in a lot of effort and at great cost? And when you fail, people don’t even know you failed because they only remember the winners.”

Lifting her face, Rhea nodded slowly and solemnly.

She can bear it, or rather, she has endured it alone, countless times.

And her situation is even worse, because once she fails, not only will people not show sympathy and focus on the winners to ignore her, but they will also criticize her, laugh at her, and magnify every pore of her to evaluate carefully.

Because she is no longer a newcomer.

For Rhea, it was the worst and cruelest job, but it was also the best.

If it was just to reproduce her dream in Hollywood, Rhea would not be so anxious. It would be a good choice to follow the Parker couple's plan to complete their studies and start a career.

But she still needs to fulfill her commitment to Rhea, so she has to step up.

More importantly, the year 1994 here is not on the same timeline as the year 2016 when she died—the details of history have changed.

This is not exactly the same thing as the history that Rhea knows, even if she goes back to China, she will not find everything she knows.

This also means that her "precognition" ability, which is already mixed with water, will be discounted countless times, so she has to advance her plan to enter Hollywood.

"Riya, do you know what "Lolita" is about?" Mei's eyes became gentle again, "...Are you sure you can accept this?"

"Mr. Malloy wants to take me to the audition for Annabelle." Rhea was silent for a while before answering: "Her counterpart will only be the young Humbert."

"Mom, I've been able to face that. I have to get over it and not let it get in my way. I'm not the one who made the mistake, and I shouldn't be the one to run away from it."

That's right, the famous "Lolita" is a tragedy about a middle-aged man Humbert and an underage girl Lolita.

And Annabelle is Humbert's first love who died young when he was young.

Considering the plot and Rhea's background, this is indeed something she should try to avoid.

But thinking from another angle, why can't this be her springboard?

From review to release to release, this classic movie, which has experienced box office failure and public opinion criticism, did not receive a fair and objective evaluation until a few years later. Why can't we achieve mutual success with her?

Even Rhea still has doubts:

Why can she only audition for Annabelle and not for the film's heroine, Lolita?

The author has something to say:

Thank you Youbao good mushroom cool mine 030

"Lolita" started casting in 94, and filmed in 95.

I chose this movie because the young characters in it are all newcomers, and the casting is an audition, and it is more scientific for the newcomers to take the lead...

Generally, I first act in TV series to gain some experience, and then act in movies to practice leveling, but please forgive me for not watching too many American dramas QAQ, and it is difficult to find resources for American dramas in the 90s, so I went straight to the movies.
