Chapter 889

“The company has already set a budget for Twilight.”

In the office, Lindsay Bill pushed down his black-framed glasses and said to Ronan: "The production budget is 35 million US dollars, which is very sufficient."

This was approved by Ronan, and he certainly knew: "The magical element is just an embellishment. After all, this is a romance film."

Just like all kinds of TV series that once had the guise of workplace, costumes and case solving, everything was for the bloody love triangle.

Qiong Yao-style romance dramas no longer meet the needs of the times, but new-style romance dramas quickly filled this market.

The biggest difference between the two is probably that mistresses are no longer full of justice and have become villains one after another.

Lindsay Bill said at this time: "In terms of directors, given your fame, many directors have expressed strong interest..."

"Is there any Catherine Hardwick?" Ronan asked.

Lindsay Bill thought for a while and said, "Yes, she submitted her resume through the caa channel."

Ronan reminded: "Please focus on her. This is the person recommended by Tom Cruise, and Tom's vision is still trustworthy."

Katherine Hardwick is an art director and has held this position in many films. He has worked with Tom Cruise and has served as art director, associate director and executive producer in "Vanilla Sky".

At the same time, "Fang Age Thirteen", which she is the screenwriter and director, is also a relatively successful low-cost teenager movie. Strictly speaking, it belongs to the same genre as "Twilight".

Lindsay Bill looked up the relevant information about Catherine Hardwick and said: "The 13th is the first official feature film directed by Catherine Hardwick. It won $10.12 million in box office for $1.5 million in production."

This data is undoubtedly very convincing.

Lindsay Bill continued: "This year she worked with Sony Columbia Pictures as a director and screenwriter. She was released in June with a production cost of $2.5 million and a total box office of $13.41 million."

Luo Nan nodded slowly. For a business director like him, he valued business data more.

"Tom is still very reliable," Ronan said.

Lindsay Bill continued: "From "13" and "The Lord of Dog Town", Katherine Hardwick should be known for filming youth."

Ronan thought for a while and said, "Linsae, you can contact Catherine Hardwick first. You wrote the specific content of this movie and you completed it. Whether Catherine Hardwick is suitable or not, you should be able to make a judgment."

Lindsay Bill is no longer the little gunman when he first arrived in the entertainment of Relativity, and said, "Okay, I'll go back and have an interview with Catherine Hardwick."

Ronan turned to ask, "What about the actors?"

Lindsay Beal said: "I have met Kristen Stewart. She has rich acting experience. In 2002, she filmed "Shirt Space" with Judy Foster, in 2003, she starred in "Hazy House" with Daniel Quaid and Sharon Stone, in 2004, and in 2004, she also starred in a drama film "No More Silence" starring her..."

"This is a child star." Ronan understood.

Lindsay Bill reminded: "The industry believes that Kristen Stewart has a bright future."

Ronan made a decision: "Send an invitation to audition."

Lindsay Bill said: "I think it's better to wait until next year to post an audition invitation."

"Hmm?" Ronan was puzzled.

Lindsay Bill explained: "The crew is still planning in the early stage and it will take some time to establish the project. I also have to take into account the filming of Gossip Girl Season 2. This project will not be officially started next year. And Christine Stewart is young..."

Ronan asked, “How old is she this year?”

"At fifteen, but if you wait a few months, you will be sixteen." Lindsay Bill reminded: "The crew will be subject to many restrictions when signing a contract before the age of sixteen, but after the age of sixteen, the situation will be much better."

Ronan thought for a little while and said, "The actors are not busy with auditions. First determine the director, and then form a crew. The actors audition can be placed at the end."

Lindsay Bill said: "I think so too."

Ronan emphasized again: "For actors, there is only priority choice, no choice is necessary. Kristen Stewart's audition is good, and the crew can wait for her for several months, so we can completely wait. If the audition is average, we have other options to consider."

"I understand." Lindsay Bill is not a newbie in Hollywood. He knows that there is never a shortage of actors in the circle. He also said: "In terms of the leading actor, my assistant has contacted Robert Pattinson. He has also rich acting experience. He has starred in "The Ring of Nibelungan" and "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". In addition, Henry Cavill also wants this role."

Ronan smiled and asked, "The schedule of Transformers does not conflict with your project?"

Lindsay Bill said: "It can be adjusted."

Ronan waved his hand: "It's up to the audition to decide."

Henry Cavill has been confirmed to play the role of Duke in "Transformers", but he didn't expect to be interested in roles like vampire again.

The crew of "Transformers" is preparing, including Candice Swaneple and Henry Cavill, and many other characters, have been sent to the desert of Nedahua by Michael Bella to start the last part of the training before shooting.

In the filming of this film, regardless of the male and female protagonists, there are a lot of running scenes, requiring excellent physical fitness and flexible enough skills.

Although high-difficulty and dangerous action scenes will be completed with stunt stand-in, some ordinary action scenes also require the actor to play in person.

If Transformers can achieve the expected results, Henry Cavill passed the audition for the Twilight crew, and the British actor may be so popular in the next few years.

Ronan will not take the initiative to interfere in the crew audition because in his eyes, as long as the vampire male protagonist has a good appearance and acting skills, it is not much different if he plays it.

It also includes Isabella, who once was Kristen Stewart.

There are really many outstanding actresses in Hollywood between the 85 and 90s. There are more than a dozen people who can remember the names just by thinking about it.

As for those who think of people after seeing the name, there are more.

Once on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, according to the entertainment industry there, there were also four great kings, four great actresses and four little actresses for Hollywood stars.

Then, Ronan saw the audition actor list handed over by Lindsay Bill. Now he is famous for his relativity entertainment. Any project under his investment with a slightly higher investment will attract many quasi-star actors to submit resumes.

For example, in the audition list of the heroine, there are even an aunt-level actor like Amy Adams.

In addition, Ronan also saw a familiar name - Brie Larson.

The square-faced aunt seems to be a perfect match for the young cow.

The actress, who just turned 16, is also a child star. Although she is not old, she has appeared in many movies.

There are detailed notes on the information that Brie Larson is a child star at Disney and has performed on Disney Children's Channel since she was nine years old.

Brie Larson probably had an indissoluble bond with Disney very early on. If she or her parents are a little concerned, she will understand the importance of this relationship with Disney.

Perhaps, this is also an important reason why Brie Larson once became a square-faced aunt.

…………

As night comes, a private club in the Santa Monica Valley is brightly lit, and a luxury car comes from a distance and parks in front of the newly decorated club door.

Dick Cook, the owner of the club, is waiting here.

When the Bentley sedan stopped, he came forward and opened the car door himself.

Seeing Robert Eiger get out of the car, Dick Cook shook his hands: "Welcome, Bob."

Robert Egg nodded slightly: "Good evening, Dick."

Dick Cook leads the way: "Go here."

Robert Eiger followed him into the club and walked along a quiet road towards a separate house.

"He's here?" Robert Iger asked with a smile.

Dick Cook said: "He has arrived long ago in order to avoid the gaze of those who are interested."

Before coming to the house, as the president of Walt Disney Group, Dick Cook knocked on the door lightly, and someone came to open the door and led the two in.

Michael Eisner sat on a chair with a cup of coffee on the round table in front of him.

Seeing Robert Eiger, he seemed to want to say hello on his own, but his long-standing habit made him sit firmly on the chair without moving.

"Good evening, Mr. Eisner." Robert Iger smiled like Disney's iconic Mickey Mouse.

Michael Eisner squeezed out a smile: "You are here, Bob." He pointed to the chair next to him: "Sit as you like, don't be polite to me."

"Thank you." Robert Eiger did not move the chair, but instead pulled the other one next to him and sat opposite Michael Eisner.

This seemingly polite and polite way, but also vaguely shows that the two parties have equal status, made Michael Eisner frown slightly.

Michael Eisner turned to look at Dick Cook, probably used to being high above and said in a commanding tone: "Dick, go outside, don't let anyone disturb us."

There was no change in Dick Cook's face and he said with a smile: "You guys talk, I'll go and see how the midnight snack is ready."

After leaving the room, a trace of gloom inevitably appeared on Dick Cook's face.

"Long time no see, Bob," Michael Eisner said, looking at Robert Eiger across the street, "I remember the last time we sat together for coffee, it was when you were at Disney, when you were just promoted."

Robert Eiger smiled and said, "It's happened five years ago?"

Michael Eisner said: "Thinking about it now, it seems that it happened yesterday."
