Andy originally just wanted to play a prank. Even as Lan Li’s agent, he was repeatedly amazed. This teenager can always show maturity and stability beyond his age, so he was also curious to be Lan Li’s professionalism. When encountering a spoof, whether Lan Li will lose his attitude.

Now Andy knows a little bit, in terms of professionalism, you should never challenge the authority of Lan Li easily.

"Actually, I think there is a role that suits you very well." Andy ignored Lanly's ridiculous eyes, skipped the joke proposal of "Twilight", and went to the main topic, "Detective Sherlock Holmes 2. This movie is now Casting roles."

"The Great Detective Holmes", without much introduction, is listed as one of the three greatest fictional characters in British history alongside Doctor Who and 007. There are countless adaptations.

The version that Andy said was released in 2009. It was directed by Guy Ritchie and starred by Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. It achieved good box office results, an investment of 90 million, and was successful. With a box office of 200 million in North America and 520 million in the world, the performance was very gratifying, so the sequel was undoubtedly included in the plan.

Andy's words did not stop, and continued to introduce, "In this story, they will introduce the role of Professor Moriarty, Holmes' worst enemy. I think this is a good choice, and also a good one. challenge."

"But?" Lan Li didn't ignore the details in Andy's words. He could smell that there was a "but" behind it. However, Andy didn't say it right away, so Lan Li took the initiative to hand it out.

Andy nodded with a chuckle, "But..." He paused for half a second, without concealing the regret in his expression, "But Warner Bros. thinks you are too young."

In the original novel, Professor Moriarty is undoubtedly the biggest opponent of Sherlock Holmes, but also the most charming villain. He has caused countless troubles for Sherlock Holmes and even forced Sherlock Holmes to fake his own death. Therefore, whether it is a TV adaptation, a film adaptation, or a stage play adaptation, Professor Moriarty is definitely a top priority role.

People expect Professor Moriarty not only that he can be evenly matched with Holmes, but also that he can show a strong personality charm. This is a villain who makes people grit their teeth but makes people love them.

With the development and improvement of commercial films, the weight of the villain's role is increasing day by day. Only a strong opponent can bring out a strong protagonist. The reason why "Batman: The Dark Knight" went down in the annals of history is because it dedicated the most exciting clown in film history; the reason why "Star Trek: Darkness Unbounded" was scolded by diehard fans is because of the history of the series. Khan, the most exciting villain, failed completely.

Professor Moriarty, too.

In Andy's view, Lan Li can definitely give Moriarty a different kind of charm, even magic. When facing the invitation of "Thor", Lan Li showed more interest in Loki than Saul himself. This also shows that Lan Li didn't mind playing a supporting role. What he really liked was the character itself.

"How do you think? If you are interested, I can communicate with Warner Bros." Andy asked deliberately, "Such a villain, not to mention whether he can reach the height of a clown, but it can give you There are many performance spaces to try different styles. Moreover, Guy-Ritch’s guiding style is more humorous, which can be regarded as a kind of comedy performance."

Andy did not forget Lanly's interest in comedy.

"No, no need." Lan Li showed a slight smile and shook his head in denial.

Professor Moriarty is indeed a very interesting role, but this is only limited to the original novel. How it behaves in the movie depends on the script and the director.

Thanks to the success of the first movie and the booing of many fans, the focus of "Detective Sherlock Holmes 2" is "selling rotten". The relationship between Holmes and Watson has been blatantly put on the table, even Without any cover, other characters are just foils. Moriarty? Not to mention the performance space, even the role is very limited, but it is just a gimmick.

Andy hadn’t read the script, so naturally he didn’t know. He thought that Lan Li was polite, so he added, “I don’t think age is a problem at all. I have some friendship with their producers. I can communicate again, at least , Can arrange for you to meet and talk, they will know that age has never been the criterion for determining whether an actor is good or not."

Lan Li chuckled slightly, he could feel Andy's self-confidence and sincerity, "I know age is not a problem. But besides that, there are many problems, especially for such a large crew. Right?"

Although Andy didn't say much, Lan Li still smelled clues.

The smile paused slightly at the corner of Andy's mouth, then outlined it, and lowered his gaze. Even if there is no explanation, this is considered a tacit consent.

In fact, Guy Ritchie really likes Renly's performance in "Buried Alive", and he is willing to give Renly an audition opportunity. After all, Moriarty was originally a fictional character. This version of the movie he shot has also changed the setting of "That Woman". Now in the script, the age of the professor is adjusted to be in his early thirties. Not possible.

However, when Robert Downey Jr. learned the news, he justly rejected the proposal. On the face of it, the reason he gave was "too young to match the play". This makes sense.

As the biggest competitor of Sherlock Holmes, Professor Moriarty's age is similar to or even slightly older than Sherlock Holmes, which is a more suitable setting. Lan Li was only 21 years old. As Holmes's biggest opponent in his life, he was indeed too young.

But in fact, Robert is really worried for another reason.

Robert is worried about Lan Li’s robbing of the show. As a hot and dazzling figure in recent times, people’s discussion has always focused on Lan Li’s acting skills. Robert not only needs to worry about the embarrassment of the performance of the opponent’s performance, the rhythm of the performance is taken away. And embarrassment, but also need to worry about the effect of the film, Lan Li will steal more light, but he will be reduced to a supporting role.

Not only Renly, but also Javier Baden, Daniel Day-Lewis and Gary Oldman who were vetoed by Robert.

It's shameful enough to fall under the wind in the acting showdown. If you still lose to a 21-year-old boy, it would be even more shameful to be thrown at your grandma's house.

Robert's refusal is categorical, and there is no room for maneuver.

In such a situation, Andy is helpless, but also helpless. With the help of "Iron Man" after his comeback, Robert is now in full swing and his temper is getting bigger and bigger. He even prohibits the media from turning over his old accounts in any form of interviews. However, the media can only ridicule and ridicule him. There is no way to deal with him.

Originally Andy was thinking that if Lan Li was really interested, then he would communicate with Guy, and then lobby the two producers. There was still room for maneuver. However, now that Lan Li has vetoed it, that's it.

The main purpose of Andy today was not to finalize the script, otherwise he would not come over empty-handed, and did not carry any script at all.

Recently, Andy has been using the powerful network of innovative artist management companies to explore more development opportunities. Thanks to the success of three consecutive works, the number of crews showing interest in Lan Li has increased significantly, but now everyone is in a state of exploring and waiting.

Those commercial films are waiting for feedback from "Fast and Passion 5"; while those art films are testing the current pay of Lan Li. As a newcomer, the speed of Lanly's rise is too fast. Everyone can't accurately grasp the situation and needs more time to communicate.

As a result, there are a lot of opportunities to visit, but everyone is tempting. Therefore, Andy needs a clearer idea, and then take the initiative to attack. "Detective Sherlock Holmes 2" was rejected by Lanly, and Andy felt that it couldn't be more normal, which was a reference for his subsequent screenplay screening.

As an excellent agent, Andy always tries his best to be fully prepared to deal with all kinds of situations. Lan Li's career has had a fantastic start, and he hopes to continue this again.

Andy didn't rashly continue to speak ~www.novelhall.com~, but calmed down and thought about it seriously, searched the reserve items in his mind, and found more suitable objects.

But Lan Li was not in a hurry, sitting on the opposite side and waiting quietly.

After a short while, Andy finally raised his head, "There is another project. It's more special and tricky." Andy paused for a while, organizing the language, "The character is a very interesting character, which is considered a male protagonist. But the focus of this work will be slightly tilted towards the heroine, the actor's weight is not so heavy.

"However, I think this character itself is worth digging in detail. His character attributes are not that simple, and the test of the actor is by no means easy. Of course, this is just my judgment as a layman. The specific situation is still up to you. To judge." Andy's gaze fell on Lan Li, and found that Lan Li was still listening carefully without interrupting him, so he went on to say, "But there is a tricky question, and the detective It's the same with Holmes 2."

Lan Li laughed blankly.

"The age of this actor is relatively older, forty-three years old, if I remember correctly." After Andy finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh, looking for a suitable role for the twenty-year-old young man—— Or, to find a suitable script, this is really not an easy task. "The problem now is that I only temporarily heard about this project and have some simple understanding. If you are interested, then I will work with the crew. Get in touch and see."

As the male protagonist, but the glory is robbed by the female protagonist, and the age is still too old, this is indeed not the best choice.

Lan Li nodded lightly, not in a hurry to judge, "What is the name of the project?"

"The girl with the dragon tattoo." Andy said. ()
