64 Audit Committee(2/2)
As for Quinn, his weight cannot affect New Line's decision-making at all. Michael DeLuca expressed his gratitude for his willingness to cooperate with New Line. If the project comes to fruition, he will be directly assigned to the end of the first thug under the villain boss.
A round of auditions. If you pass the audition, everyone can cooperate...
It’s obvious that if you have more, it doesn’t count, and if you have less, it doesn’t matter!
So when Quinn came back in the end, he had a script thrust into him by director Brett Ratner, with "Rush Hour" written on the cover.
Chris is happy to see this situation come to fruition. Regardless of the projects brought by Joe Drake, according to his schedule, after filming "The Evil Dead", Bai Quinn needs to film "Infernal Affairs".
It is necessary to go to Jack Cheng's project to waste time.
After talking about this matter with Chris, Bai Quinn suddenly remembered two details that director Brett Ratner mentioned when chatting with him.
One is that he once said that when he was in school in New York, he analyzed Jack Cheng's "Police Story" and "Eagle" frame by frame.
Going to school in New York?
Bai Quinn immediately picked up the phone and dialed Said's number.
"Hi, Syed, are you busy? Whether you are busy or not, let me ask you something. Do you know Brett Ratner? I know that he once studied directing in New York and shot MTV."
Said on the other side of the United States replied listlessly: "I know him, he is a few years older than me, and he is a favorite disciple of Martin Scorsese... In addition, I heard a rumor that his family has a close relationship with Poland."
Gay, yes, he is the Polanski whose wife was killed by Manson. Anyway, he is somewhat related... They are both Jews who survived the nacui... I also heard that Spielberg paid for his tuition.
of……"
The rest was filled with useless nonsense. Bai Kuiyun hung up the phone to prevent Said from bringing the topic to his wives again and wasting the phone bill.
The information provided by Syed is very useful, and combined with the second detail observed by Bai Qin, it can be inferred that Brett Ratner had a great influence on the entire project.
The second detail is that Brett Ratner complained to Quinn that due to the dispute between him and Martin Lawrence, he decided to abandon using Martin Lawrence as one of the two male leads in this project.
Yes, Bright's script is an action comedy with two male protagonists. According to him, the original plan was to have two male protagonists, one black and one white, and invite two comedy stars to star.
The white male protagonist was originally scheduled to be Chris Farley, a regular actor on "Saturday Night Live". This fat man with a loud voice is well-known in the United States. He has great comedy talents and is fully capable of carrying a comedy movie alone.
When Bright heard that he had the opportunity to work with Jack Cheng, he immediately asked the screenwriter to modify the script and replace the white policeman with a Chinese detective who was ruthless and didn't say much.
Chris Farley is out.
He originally favored Eddie Murphy for the black male lead, but Eddie Murphy refused to play a role similar to Axl Foley (the role played by Eddie Murphy in "Beverly Cop") again.
Then I thought of Martin Lawrence, but soon Martin Lawrence was abandoned because of his failed dispute with Bai Quinn.
Martin Lawrence is out.
In other words, if Jack Cheng accepts the script, New Line and Brett Ratner will still need to find another male lead to play with Jack Cheng.
