Climb to the top 847 Make a bold choice

"'Interview with the Vampire' doesn't sound like a Dracula series?" When Joseph heard Rick's answer, he took the initiative to pick up the conversation.

When it comes to vampires, Count Dracula is naturally the most widely known image, and this is also the most adapted vampire image in Hollywood, which has almost become synonymous with vampires.

Rick nodded, "This is an adaptation of Anne Rice, and it's another great book about vampires. Rick explained briefly, and then looked at Hugo, "There are two main male vampire characters in this work, both of which can be considered protagonists, but David wants you to play the charming vampire, in the words of the reader, elegant and evil, handsome and deadly." ”

"Me? Seduction?" When Hugo heard Rick's words, he couldn't help laughing, "Are you sure David didn't find the wrong person?" Hugo's whole temperament is actually very clear, the sun-like brilliance sparkles between the eyebrows, similar to gloomy, pale, seductive. Vampire traits such as bewilderment and evil are difficult to see in Hugo.

Rick and Joseph were also infected by Hugo's laughter, but Joseph said, "But the actors Pitt, Cruise, and Dai Yi Lewis do not have that 'charming' temperament, which is far from the image of a vampire." Strictly speaking, among the candidates Rick just mentioned, the closest to this temperament is Johnny Depp, whose gloomy and pale image in "Edward Scissorhands" is still deeply rooted in people's hearts.

"You would never have expected that Cruise was on the waitlist, and he volunteered to star in it." Rick turned his gaze to Joseph and said with a smile.

Sure enough, Joseph's surprised expression was clearly presented between his eyebrows, "He lost his mind?"

Tom Cruise's image is a typical idol student, with a handsome face, a righteous and awe-inspiring temperament, and a little bit of cream scholarly taste, he is even known as a "flower-like man", but not too weak, or with a neat and bold masculinity. This is also an important reason why he can become the number one handsome guy in Hollywood.

Tom has starred in most of his works, and his four most successful works so far are "Risky." Business)", the young and vigorous pilot in "Top Gun", the lost younger brother in "Rain Man", and the competitive boy in "Born on the Fourth of July".

The image of Tom in these works has more or less overlapping parts, especially the kind of boy mixed with manly temperament, which makes him popular in the United States.

Such a Tom Cruise, but took the initiative to ask to appear in such a deviant work as "Night Interview with Vampires", and he is also a vampire character full of "charm", which will definitely cause a huge sensation, and it is estimated that it is difficult for his fans to accept such a decision.

Rick agreed with Joseph's words, but he didn't react that much, just chuckling twice, "Maybe we can understand that this character has a lot of attraction to Tom." David would want you to play the role, I think it's because of your breakthrough performance in Schindler's List. Apparently the second half of the sentence was addressed to Hugo.

People call Hugo's performance in "Schindler's List" "wickedly sexy", showing Hugo's completely different actor charm, which really makes the whole Hollywood shine.

Hugo didn't answer immediately, but thought for a moment and asked. "Which role does David want me to play in 'Interview with the Vampire'?"

"Leicester. Do you read it?" Rick replied, "I've only been reading for the past two days, and I've heard that the character of Lester is the central character of Anne and is a very mixed character. "Sure enough, it's Leicester. Lester can be called one of the most complex and charismatic vampires in the history of all vampire films, and even many people think that it would be okay to cut this "one". Anne Rice's Leicester is the youngest son of a marquis in France, and he is spoiled, but he can't stand the old-fashioned atmosphere of the family, and runs away from home many times and is recaptured.

Lester was born with an uninhibited rebellion and casualness, a touch of tenderness at the moment of bowing his head, revealed from the inadvertently hanging golden hair, eyebrows and eyes slightly raised, and a touch of seductive charm rippled between the pupils, in an instant, it was an indescribable fatal innocence, he had a noble temperament, with an inviolable awe and pride to look at the world, he had an androgynous wild and uninhibited feminine temperament.

It can be said that the challenge of Lester's acting skills is unprecedented, whether it is a film that has made the vampire Dracula face before, or a movie that idolizes the vampire, or a movie that demonizes the vampire, in these works, the vampire is just a specific symbol, and the intricacies in the character's personality are rarely explored.

Imagine how the loneliness, perverseness, violence, bloodshed, brutality, and loneliness that have precipitated after the vicissitudes of time are mixed with a group of eternal immortals who cannot soak up the sun. It's a shame that most vampire movies don't explore this.

The reason for the great success of "Night Vampire" is actually the excavation of vampires, who treat them as an independent individual, a real being, rather than a symbol of a group. And in the pen of the original author Anne, Lester is undoubtedly the top priority, he gathers all Anne's fantasy of all the romance, all the horror, all the adventures of vampires.

This also makes Lester's character thickness and depth surpass that of any other vampire, and even beyond the splendor and ups and downs of many historical figures, and it is not an easy task to portray this character, and it can even be said to be an unprecedented challenge.

Even with "Schindler's List" in front, David hopes that Hugo, who is far away from the temperament and image, will play Leicester, which is undoubtedly a very bold choice, and it can even be said to be a risky choice. Because the challenge of Lester's character is indeed too great!

Hugo was suddenly a little excited, this is an excellent opportunity to challenge his acting skills, almost to challenge the impossible. After all, for a character like a vampire who is in a virtual situation, it is difficult for an actor to find a reference in real life. What should be the state of mind of an ageless creature who has lived for three centuries? I'm afraid no one can answer this question, just as no one can answer the question "What if I traveled back in time to 300 years ago", because the preset answer is always only a preconceived one, and it is only true after actually experiencing it yourself.

In the past, it seemed that those who had crossed over or were reborn quickly adapted to their surroundings and then quickly began to kill. But when Hugo really experienced such an incredible thing as "crossing over", he realized that it was not as simple as adapting to an unfamiliar environment, but adapting to a change in time and space, adapting to the change of his identity, and adapting to the earth-shaking change of the whole world, and that strong impact could not be described in words.

Therefore, after the Golden Raspberry Award, Hugo was very grateful to Joseph, in a sense, he also had a sense of dependence on Joseph, just like the first person he saw after a small animal broke out of its shell would call "Mom", Joseph was not only the first person he knew in this time and space, but also a partner who helped him adapt here.

One can imagine how interesting it would be if Hugo challenged Lester, a vampire like no other than ever before. In the twenty years since the advent of "Interview with the Vampire", although the vampire movie has never really disappeared from the audience's sight, there has never been a character as charismatic and so deep as Lester.

Thinking of this, Hugo was naturally a little excited. But the excitement only lasted for a short while, and soon Hugo calmed down, realizing that he really couldn't take the script now, and that the tour was just around the corner, and he still had to focus on the band. He had to put more effort into challenging the first real tour than challenging the role.

When he heard Rick say the name of "Night Vampire", it dawned on Hugo that Hugo had made a decision, and there was no need to hesitate too much at this time. So Hugo smiled at Rick and said, "I'll focus on touring for the time being, and I'll leave the movie thing at bay for the time being." "Now Hugo has cultivated enough concentration to be able to control himself.

Rick wasn't surprised at all, they had already discussed this issue yesterday and made a decision, so he didn't mention the proposal of "Night Vampire" yesterday, "Okay, I got it." Rick simply agreed.

"What about Steven and David?" After going around in circles, Hugo still brings the topic back to the beginning.

Rick also came back to his senses, "Actually, there is nothing to pay attention to. I came here today just to find out what is going on, which has some impact on the future direction of our company. MVP Guo Steven Spielberg and David Geffen are really going to set up a new company, maybe this is a good opportunity for Endeavor Elite Company, "As for you here, you should not know what to do anyway, just develop normally." ”

Now Steven and David have no showdown, and Yiqiē is just Hugo's speculation, so there is no need to adjust any strategy, Yiqiē can develop according to the normal track. This is the reason why soldiers will block the water and cover the earth.

After the situation was sorted out, Rick didn't stay too long, "You should rest early, don't you have to contact the band tomorrow." I'll get in touch with Joe if I have questions. Rickley landed and then turned away.

Hugo stood still and thought about it, talking so much to Rick tonight, but in the end there seemed to be nothing left. Perhaps, this is the advantage of having agents, managers, and assistants at the same time, and leaving the complicated things to them, Hugo only needs to focus on the profession of acting and music.
