In fact, before this, Evan Bell has also interviewed several child actors. Hair color and eye color are not the decisive factors. After all, it is possible to dye hair and have pupil enlargement films. These external conditions are not inevitable. condition. For child actors, the most important thing is the feeling brought by appearance and temperament. After all, for children, no matter how good their acting skills are, because of the difference in life experience, they are more on the basis of their own, and the interpretation of the role that meets their needs, so temperament is very important.

Neil, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, is a boy who is bohemian and coquettish enough to make everyone else lose his color. You can't always find a simple, honest, cute, and invincible child to perform, then it's not suitable.

Evan Bell met Zachary Gordon and his mother Samantha Gordon at the afternoon tea restaurant on the first floor of the Four Seasons Hotel.

Samantha-Gordon is a young lady under 30 years old. She is wearing a rose red sweater, a black coat, and long dark brown hair. She has a little housewife dignified elegance in her youthful fashion. . The child sitting next to her is short and small, and the whole person seems to be stuck in the sofa. His hands are placed on his knees obediently. Although the sitting posture is relaxed, it does not completely fall apart. Turning, it seems to be exploring new things in the surrounding environment.

Seeing the appearance of Evan Bell, the smile on Samantha Gordon's face is clearly visible, obviously she has a very good impression of Evan Bell, a young man who has made such achievements at the age of 21, "Morning All right, Mr Bell."

"Mrs Gordon, nice to meet you." Evan Bell and Samantha Gordon shook hands and sat down opposite Zachary Gordon, "This is Zachary, right? Nice to meet you."

"Dear Mr. Bell, thank you for giving me this opportunity for this interview." The young Zachary Gordon said loudly, and Evan Bell couldn't help laughing at his intelligent appearance.

Zachary Gordon, born in 1998, will just turn six years old on the 15th of next month. However, at a young age, he has already started to have guest appearances in some TV series, which is why Evan Bell was able to find him.

Zachary Gordon's real acting career should have started in 2006. He has made guest appearances in TV series such as "How I Met Your Mother", "24 Hours" and "Desperate Housewives". This followed in 2007 with Jennifer Lopez in "Georgia Law," which won Zachary Gordon the Young Artist (ung.sts.award) award, and later in "National Treasure 2" With a great show. At the same time, the young Zachary Gordon is also an excellent voice actor. He has participated in the dubbing of cartoons such as "Madagascar 2" and "Christmas Dog". Until 2010, a "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" put Zachary Gordon in the limelight and became a true child actor.

Zachary Gordon looks similar to Evan Bell's memory, except that the little Zachary baby fat is more obvious, and he has the same soft tan hair as Joseph Gordon-Levitt. , The facial features also have the appearance of Jewish blood, and the eyebrows, nose, and lips are so similar. He is definitely the best choice to play childhood Neil.

"Zachary, do you know what the interview is for today?" Evan Bell lowered his body, keeping his eyes level with Zachary Gordon, and asked in a slightly brisk tone.

Zachary Gordon glanced at his mother beside him, then looked at Evan Bell again, "Mr. Bell, although I am young, it doesn't mean I don't know anything, please don't ask me such a simple question. All right? You should probably talk to me about what the character is like."

The kid's big answer made Evan Bell laugh out loud, "Very well, I really need to talk to you about this character." Evan Bell sat up at this moment and turned his attention to Samantha Gordon, "Mrs Gordon, do you know what the script for 'Mysterious Skin' is about? This time I want Zachary to play Neil's childhood."

Neil's childhood was very precocious. When he was six years old, he peeped at his mother and her boyfriend having **** outdoors, and had a physiological reaction, and even gushed out for the first time. Later, Neil was also the first target of the baseball coach. Neil even developed a hazy love for the baseball coach. In order to attract the coach's attention, he was willing to seduce other partners. Neil's perception of baseball coaches is simple and complex. He always thought he understood what was going on. He "loved" the baseball coach, and he tried to please the coach. But later he discovered that he had lost his definition of love, so he chose to sell his body to pursue the so-called true love, but he always found nothing.

Therefore, Neil was very sensitive during his childhood, and he needed to face things that ordinary children could not face. If the actor does not choose well, this will also become a memory that cannot be erased in the actor's life, perhaps not as serious as the "Mysterious Skin" story, but this is definitely not an alarmist. Evan Bell wants Samantha Gordon to know enough about the situation Zachary Gordon is going to face, otherwise he won't force any kid into the role.

"I have some simple understandings, can you explain it to me in more detail?" Samantha Gordon also seemed more cautious. Although she wanted her son to become an actor, she didn't want her son to repeat the "Home Alone" style. "What happened to Macaulay Culkin of fame.

Seeing Evan Bell's hesitant look, Samantha Gordon smiled and said to her son, "Zach, didn't you just say you wanted ice cream?"

Evan Bell waved to the waiter next to him and whispered, "Take Zachary to buy ice cream and put it on my account."

Zachary Gordon didn't run away like an ordinary child, he looked at his mother, and after getting a confirmed look, he said to Evan Bell, "Thank you, Mr. Bell. Sir, wait for me. When you come back, I hope you can explain the character to me again, I think I can understand what you said."

The mature appearance of this young man made Evan Bell smile, "As long as your mother agrees." After getting the guarantee, Zachary Gordon left obediently. Evan Bell turned to Samantha Gordon and said, "You have a good son."

It took Evan Bell nearly an hour to explain the role of Neil, including all the plots Zachary Gordon had to deal with. Before accepting the interview invitation, Samantha Gordon actually knew enough about the script of "Mysterious Skin". Just being a prostitute was enough for her parents' attention, but it was worse than she imagined. Evan Bell has obviously omitted and beautified the scene a lot, and it is not as dirty and wretched as imagined.

Evan Bell then spent more than half an hour explaining what he needed to do with Zachary Gordon, with Samantha Gordon on the side. It was finally decided that the character of Neil would be played by Zachary Gordon during his childhood.

Afterwards, Evan Bell flew back to New York and met Nathan Gamble, the number one candidate for Brian's childhood role, who flew over from Washington at 10 Princes Street.

Nathan Gamble's father, Lewis Gamble, was a theater director who also ran a children's theater camp. It took Evan Bell a lot of trouble finding Nathan Gamble, and finally through a series of Broadway relationships. Just got in touch with Lewis Gamble.

Like Zachary Gordon, Nathan Gamble was born in 1998. He just passed his sixth birthday two weeks ago, and he has one thing in common with Zachary Gordon. Winner of Young Artists. Nathan Gamble, who won the award twice in 2008 and 2010, was actually nominated in 2007, but lost to Zachary Gordon.

Nathan Gamble hasn't worked on any film or TV yet. He's been honing in his father's children's theater camp until his first performance in 2006's "Tower of Babel", which won him Nominations for Young Artists. Later, Nathan Gamble starred in films including "The Mist" and "Ghost Whisperer". Of course, Nathan Gamble was best known for his later work, "Batman: The Dark Knight," directed by Christopher Nolan, in which he played Gary Oldman's James Gordon's son James .

Nathan Gumball's splendid blond hair is very handsome, and his black eyes are also full of spirituality. Evan Bell is optimistic that he will play Brian's childhood role, and Brian Gosling is currently confirmed to be played by Ryan Gosling.

Ryan Gosling decided to take up the challenge after serious thought ~www.wuxiaspot.com~. In fact, the biggest reason why Ryan Gosling will take over this script is because he believes that Evan Bell's ability to train actors can allow him to break through the long-troubled acting bottleneck and take it to a higher level. Not long ago, "The Notebook" touched Ryan Gosling deeply.

The contact between Evan Bell and Lewis Gamble was not too easy either. Although Brian didn't need to be exposed to so many details of Neil during his childhood, Evan Bell believes that being in the same crew is inevitable. Therefore, it is his responsibility to explain the situation of the crew to the parents of the actors.

After listening to Evan Bell's elaboration, Lewis Gamble in turn comforted Evan Bell, "Mr. Bell, there are too many dark and dirty works in the entertainment industry than 'Mysterious Skin', just from you, the responsible and serious In terms of attitude, I would like to believe you."
