Chapter 313: Alice, the Angel of the End of the World
The overseas film industry did not expect that the news of the movie casting was released just after the "Resident Evil" game became popular for a few days.
The pioneering work of the doomsday zombie crisis movie!
Adapted from the hit game!
Avengers and MagiStudio collaborate for the first time!
Daxia filmmakers impact Hollywood!
Various titles came out and many people signed up.
But it can also be seen that the status of the auditioners is not particularly high.
All the celebrities who are interested are second- and third-tier ones.
The main reason is Hollywood's concerns about such projects.
The problem is the same as Magi's.
They believe that this is an experimental work that Magi created as a desperate measure when facing financial crisis.
Daxia provides the money and projects, and Magi uses its own resources to participate. If they win, they will get a lot with a little effort, and even if problems arise, the losses will not be too great.
Therefore, the level of this project within Magi will not be too high.
The facts are similar. Although Magi is still very optimistic about this project, the film rating cannot be S or A, but B.
But Lin Mo felt that the current situation was enough.
With his previous fame and the influence of his IP, it is very likely that he will be ignored. Even if he spends a lot of money, he may not be able to get a good team.
However, he hopes that some of the roles will have some popularity and acting skills, so he needs to add more.
Now he is still very satisfied with the result of this increase.
Lin Mo and his team had only been in Los Angeles for a few days. They had no time to sightsee and play. The docking work was almost done, and then they plunged into the intense and orderly work.
Casting has officially begun.
Amy is a white Hollywood action actress, and her status is between second and third tier.
She started out in action movies and she was a blast from the start. Her first movie was also her masterpiece, which achieved good box office and reputation.
Since then, she has been firmly on the road of film.
Amy's appearance is not gorgeous, she doesn't have the blonde, blue-eyed, curvy figure that Hollywood likes.
It's clean and neat with a bit of determination and courage, which is especially suitable for action movies with female protagonists.
With a strong body, beautiful looks, and certain martial arts skills, she can compete professionally in both free fighting and taekwondo.
So she performed all the action scenes herself, which is a bit similar to Yuan Ye.
At this time, the Hollywood film industry was at its peak.
Technology is becoming more and more mature, and people like to use stand-ins and special effects instead of real people.
In this way, Amy's advantage is negligible.
Moreover, as more and more stories of various themes emerge, the homogeneity of movies becomes more and more obvious. Audiences need freshness and new stimulation to stimulate their consumption impulse.
Therefore, many companies are looking for new opportunities to explore new highlights in various aspects such as script stories, technology, and techniques.
Before seeing the casting for "Resident Evil", she hadn't had any new work for two years.
Many directors prefer prettier actresses, and action scenes can be compensated by technology.
If she lowered her status, she could still get a lot of work, but Amy was persistent. She wanted to do her job well and be a good action movie actress.
And isn’t this “Resident Evil” the new story she has been waiting for for a long time?
No matter how many times Magi has faced financial crises or whether the project is at risk of being aborted, she must try for this role.
And the selection of the heroine is open. These few words reveal a lot of information~
There are hidden rules everywhere, right? Bringing money into the group, nepotism, etc. are all the same...
It is normal in this circle for a company to use its own contracted actors or actors designated by investors in its own movies.
Now that the casting is open, there is only one possibility: Magi does not have the right to choose the casting!
The casting rights should be in the hands of Daxia director Wukong!
This is great, the people of Daxia are so awesome!
To have such a big say in front of the giant Magi...
This is actually a good thing. In front of Director Daxia, everyone is treated equally and everyone relies on their own abilities!
Amy resolutely took her agent to the audition site.
On that day, the scene was packed with people, with loud gongs and drums and firecrackers.
Many movie stars and their agents were waiting in the waiting room of Magi's Los Angeles headquarters. As soon as they entered, everyone stared at each other in surprise.
Some just chat for a few moments to socialize, while others completely ignore others and quietly play with their phones while waiting.
This is new.
Before the casting news comes out, everyone uses various connections to find out the director's preferences, look for internal channels for recommendations, etc.
But Magi really refused to listen this time.
He didn't respond to anything I said and only revealed one piece of information.
"Director Wukong likes people who are suitable and dedicated!"
Alas, it’s the same whether I said it or not.
But it proves another thing, the director has the decision-making power!
So many people turned their attention to Asgard.
But they are just a gaming company.
The staff member replied reluctantly in his not-so-authentic Beijing-accented English, "You can sign up and wait for the casting call!"
When asked urgently, he started to say that he was just a game developer, didn't understand movies, and couldn't understand English...
Asgard is good at Tai Chi!
So now, no matter what level of movie star you are, wait until the auditions to see the real tricks!
As the casting continues, characters such as Chris, Reba, Albert, Jill, Barry, and Billy are revealed one after another.
Many people couldn't help but sigh.
“People really choose!”
"For those with similar status, it all depends on the acting and fighting scenes."
"The people of Daxia really love real kung fu. Many of them were selected only after having fought with real swords and guns."
"Director Daxia is truly honest!"
"Goku is very young."
"How young?"
"Looks like a high school student."
"!!!Is it that exaggerated?"
"Really, it's too childish."
"But he has a first-rate aura, is very professional, and speaks to the point."
"I'm convinced."
Now comes the soul of the whole movie - the angel of the end times, Alice.
“Please try these two paragraphs.”
"OK!"
Amy was the last one to come in. When she came in, she saw Lin Mo sitting in the middle.
My pupils are trembling~ It’s just like what the people who auditioned before said, young and with a strong aura!
A literary scene and a martial arts scene.
As expected, the martial arts scenes are good but the literary scenes are not so good, but it’s not a big problem.
It's not that lame, it's just that the fighting scenes are so amazing that some of the drama scenes are a bit stiff.
Amy's fighting scenes are powerful and punchy, making people feel the strength and thrill of her muscles!
She stood there, as if she was Alice in the killing mode.
Lin Mo could imagine her wearing a fiery red dress, like a bright dahlia in the gloomy doomsday.
Facing the aggressive zombie army, he was not afraid at all.
Compared to the beauty at first sight, this thorny rose is the Alice that Lin Mo wants.
Lin Mo's heart was burning with excitement, it was her.
After finishing, she panted and waited for feedback from the others.
Everyone looked at Lin Mo, waiting for his comment.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mo gave the conclusion directly without saying much.
"The crew will start filming next month at the latest, and the shooting period is about 5-6 months. Are you available?"
Amy was surprised for a moment, and replied with surprise:
“No problem!”
