Chatty Hollywood

"So, you finally decided to use this junkie!?"

After sending Robert Downey Jr. away and closing the door of the audition room, Lao Qiang sighed.

He looked at Charlotte with some worry,

"Although his acting skills are indeed very good and his salary is low enough, once he relapses..."

"Don't worry, old gun!"

Charlotte patted her old partner on the shoulder,

"I will ask someone to sign a very harsh restriction clause with him - once he takes drugs again, not only will he not get a penny, he will even have to pay us a huge compensation. As long as he still has some brains, he will not Will seek death."

"Hopefully!"

The old gun shrugged.

After seeing Robert Downey Jr.'s acting skills, and considering the low salary offered to him by Charlotte, the old gun has no objection to Robert Downey Jr. playing Sherlock Holmes.

After all, this guy has played Chaplin before.

He has some experience in performing characters with specific images.

However, Lao Qiang still had some complaints about Downey's drug addiction.

Although the other party has repeatedly promised that he has quit and will not commit the crime again, how can Lao Qiang believe such words easily after having been in this circle for so many years?

——Is there anything more untrustworthy than an actor and a drug addict?

Anyway, Lao Qiang didn't have much confidence in Downey's guarantee.

"I just hope he can at least endure it until the filming of the movie is over!"

Lao Qiang thought so.

As for giving the role of Watson to Jue De Law, he didn't have any objections.

——Although Robert Downey Jr. is also very handsome, he is not that gorgeous. If Jue De Law is added, the appearance of the actor in "Sherlock Holmes" will be guaranteed.

But what about the heroine?

"Charlotte, you want to make Irene Adler the heroine, right?"

"Yes."

Charlotte nodded.

This is actually something that can’t be helped—

After all, Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes treated women as air most of the time.

With the exception of Irene Adler, who played him once in "A Scandal in Bohemia," Holmes had few genuine feelings for other women.

This has led to the fact that although Conan Doyle has never written one, among the many fan stories about Sherlock Holmes, everyone always regards Irene Adler as the first choice for Sherlock Holmes.

——Unless Dr. Watson is effeminate, no female character in the Sherlock Holmes stories will be the rival of Irene Adler.

As for Charlotte's "Sherlock Holmes," since Jue De Law has been chosen to play Watson, this effeminate option naturally does not exist.

Irene Adler naturally became the first choice for the heroine.

"So which actress are you going to find to play Irene Adler?"

Lao Qiang asked,

"If you want to show her shrewd side, Jodie Foster is a good choice."

"But Judy's overall temperament is on the softer side."

Charlotte shook her head;

"The Irene Adler I need should be both smart and decisive, feminine, and tough at the same time - only such a woman can attract Sherlock Holmes and be recognized by the audience."

"Okay, but among the current Hollywood actresses, how many have a soft temperament and a tough aura at the same time?"

Old Gun muttered,

"This is basically walking to the left and walking to the right at the same time!"

Indeed, although Hollywood is like a garden with hundreds of flowers blooming, with all kinds of beauties in it, most of them are still feminine, and the few tough ones are mostly like Linda Hamilton.

——That kind of toughness comparable to that of a man is obviously not what Charlotte wants.

"In that case, Tom Cruise's wife Nicole Kidman is a good choice!"

Lao Qiang suddenly thought of a candidate.

"Nicole Kidman!?"

Hearing this name, Charlotte couldn't help but think of Tom Cruise, who he had previously suspected of being connected to mysterious ghosts.

——Unfortunately, Ruifan has been investigating for a long time and still hasn’t found any clues from Tom Cruise.

This made Charlotte feel helpless.

"She seems to have some conflicts with Tom Cruise recently. Aren't these two going to divorce?"

he asked casually.

"Who knows?"

Lao Qiang shrugged,

"Hollywood Marriage!"

"Too."

Charlotte nodded.

Coming from the future, he naturally knew that the 10-year marriage between Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise was coming to an end, and he also knew that this Australian beauty was known as a box office poison.

Although this Australian woman is quite beautiful, her appearance is a bit "ferocious", which makes her beauty more like a "dangerous beauty".

Just like the piranha, although it is beautiful, people always subconsciously want to stay away from it.

Of course, this is just Charlotte's analysis.

I’m afraid no one can explain exactly why Nicole Kidman has become box office poison.

However, in the first few years after his divorce from Tom Cruise, the other person was still doing well and had some box office appeal.

This may be a side effect of the divorce battle with Tom Cruise.

But Charlotte doesn’t care where this appeal comes from——

As long as it's useful, anyway, if there is no deviation, the time when Charlotte's "Sherlock Holmes" was released happened to be the most popular years after the divorce of Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise.

"Then put Nicole Kidman on the candidate list first!"

Charlotte shook her head and suddenly thought of a similar candidate.

"Old Gun, what do you think of Famke Janssen?"

"Famke Janssen!?"

Lao Qiang thought about it for a moment before he remembered this model-turned-actress.

"Her image is indeed very good and she can be called beautiful. However, after the failure of "Deep Chill", many directors were reluctant to use her."

"This is normal. After a movie fails, everyone from the director to the leading actor and actress will take the blame."

Charlotte shrugged.

"Her beauty also has a sense of danger. It might be a good choice to play Irene Adler!"

In fact, Charlotte mentioned Famke Janssen because the character he played in the original world left a deep impression on him.

That's right, Famke Janssen is the old version of "Phoenix" in the "X-Men" series.

His normal image was okay, but his darkened "Dark Phoenix" image left a deep impression on Charlotte.

In particular, she also played a villainous witch in "Hansel and Gretel", and her image was very stunning...

"If you say that, it's true!"

After imagining it in his mind for a while, Lao Qiang nodded, but then his expression turned strange.

"Wait, Charlotte, there's a little problem!"

"what is the problem?"

"The size of Robert Downey Jr.!"

"...This is really a problem."
