Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw
Chapter 64
.....
Johnny Depp, who has done a lot of messing around, heard his friend Nicolas Cage, who also had brotherly feelings, call him over.
Immediately put aside all his other activities, and drove his car towards Cage's villa.
In more than an hour's drive, he rushed from near Hollywood to Cage's villa.
As soon as he entered, he saw Cage doing a barbecue party with a stranger he didn't know.
"Hello, Cage?"
Depp naturally came to their barbecue, picked up a half-kilogram beef skewer, and ate it.
Kevin also introduced himself.
"I'm the director of Chainsaw, Escape from Desperate Town, and Mission Impossible, Steve Kevin!"
Kevin's great name, along with the popularity of the movie, has long been known to everyone in Hollywood.
Depp then knew that the young man in front of him was the most famous emerging director in Hollywood recently.
"Hello, I'm rock star Johnny Depp!"
With a smile on his face, Depp introduced himself.
When he debuted, as a singer, although he is now better mixed in the film industry, he is more self-proclaimed as a rock singer in his heart.
"Hello, Depp."
This is also another future superstar that Kevin has seen.
Unlike the kind of rock fan he had in front of the crowd, this kind of private party, Depp behaved much more normally.
At least, there is no sense of rebellion and the smell of weird coffee revealed by dressing up outside.
This made Kevin sigh in his heart, Meiyu really developed strongly, and Hua Guo will only start playing the character in the next few years.
At this time, he had already played in the American entertainment industry early.
Seeing Kevin and Depp exchanging a few words, Cage called out to the two to clean up the fried skewers on the side table.
After packing up the fried skewers, taking out some good beer, the three of them had a good meal, and they all lay down on the large sofa in the living room to rest, completely ignoring the mess outside.
Anyway, tomorrow a phone call, someone will come to clean up.
After a few small talks, Cage got down to business.
"Depp, the next movie directed by Kevin, is ready to find you as the male protagonist, because I don't know you, I know you, so I found me."
"This movie, you must star, the male lead is very outstanding, can make you a superstar in Hollywood."
"The most important thing is that this is a big production that costs hundreds of millions of dollars to produce!"
Before this, only one Scissorhands Edward was brilliant, and because of his makeup, it was not easy to recognize him.
Although he will not become a nobody, he is obviously not a big person.
A director of Kevin's level, looking for him as the male protagonist, is tantamount to valuing him.
Depp's face instantly became serious.
"What kind of character is it, can I find out?"
Unlike Nicolas Cage's strong background, Depp is not so picky about the role.
Hollywood stars, except for Cage, most of the people who pursue literary and artistic films are actually because they cannot receive the protagonists of commercial films.
If you can receive it, who will put commercial films without filming, and run to shoot what literary and artistic films.
Is it really bad for US dollars?
Kevin nodded, handed over the script, and explained:
"This is a fantasy film with a huge investment, I feel that my temperament is very consistent with yours, so I want to find Cage to contact you in advance."
"However, because of the huge investment, the only protagonist of this film must pass through the interviews of senior executives of many companies."
"I also hope that you can win this role and play the Captain Jack Sparrow in my heart."
By this time, Kevin was also very nervous.
If Jack Sparrow at this time can't play the charm of Captain Orchid, then he will have to take a huge risk to choose someone else to play Captain Jack Sparrow.
It is even possible that the project had to be postponed because there were no suitable roles.
Kevin couldn't risk not having the right actors to force the Caribbean Pirates, which would only ruin his reputation.
If in the future, when Kevin's position in Hollywood is firmly established, he will make some such high-risk, or original films, it doesn't matter.
But at this time, Kevin will not risk his future because of a small impulse.
...
Depp read the script at a glance and was instantly attracted to the role.
In the Middle Ages, when witches were still around, men became thieves on the sea, hunting in search of treasure on the sea.
This setting is very attractive.
And everything revolves around the fastest ship in the Caribbean, Jack Sparrow, the captain of the Black Pearl.
Jack Sparrow is different from the pirates who do everything that people know, and the adventurers who people regard as heroes.
He has the title of one of the nine strongest pirates in the Caribbean, but his personality is so cynical and even a little sissy.
At the same time, he is also a liar who is good at lying, and his morals and rhythm are questioned.
But with so many shortcomings, he also has a lot of shining points.
In order to save his friends, he is not afraid of danger.
It is such a complex and not single character that establishes a very three-dimensional and vivid image of the captain.
The moment he read the script, Depp knew he had to get the role.
A character who must be famous in film history, if he misses it, he will regret it for the rest of his life.
Looking at the silent two on the side, Johnny Depp said confidently:
"Leave it to me, director Kevin, this role is mine."
Kevin nodded.
"A week later, come to MGM Films' Pirates of the Caribbean crew to interview for the actor, I believe you."
Looking at Depp's confident eyes, Kevin was instantly convinced by him.
There are always people who talk about hard work, but in Kevin's opinion, talent is often the most important thing in these art categories.
Take Liu Tianwang in his previous life, in terms of singing, he is not as good as Zhang Tianwang, and in terms of acting skills, there is also a huge gap with Liang.
No matter how hard he tried, the gap between him and others was visible to the naked eye.
Not to say that he is bad, but to show a little.
In the film industry, talent is important.
And Nicolas Cage and Johnny Depp are undoubtedly such geniuses.
This kind of genius, assuring Kevin that he can play well, shows that he has this kind of confidence.
And Kevin is willing to believe in the promise of his genius.
In the following time, Kevin did not say much.
After eating and drinking, Julie went out to take the show, and there were no women in his villa.
It's just one night in Cage's villa.
Got some beer and a good night's sleep...
