Chatty Hollywood

"But having said that, Charlotte Booth's movies really don't need big-name stars to help them."

As soon as his thoughts changed, Philip Biermann felt that what the director said did make sense.

"If only I had realized this a few days ago when I was auditioning for Will Turner's role."

Philip regretted it now.

——No way, why did Charlotte choose Will Turner, who is also a little-known actor?

Philip was not aware of his role at the time, so he naturally had to object.

However, the young actor named Phoenix Retton was indeed very good at acting. When Philip watched his performance, he thought he was seeing the acting genius River Phoenix who died young.

——So, he finally agreed to the choice of this role.

However, during this period, Philip had left behind the image of constant "dissent".

"We can only make up for it later."

Glancing at Charlotte who was smiling but not smiling, Phillip thought helplessly.

*********

Of course, this episode did not affect the casting of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

But even if Philip no longer objects, the casting of the heroine Elizabeth Swann will not be decided at once.

But after Charlotte's insider manipulation, Alexis' sister finally got the role.

——After all, the latter’s quality is indeed good. Coupled with her good looks and correct attitude, Charlotte feels that she fully meets her requirements.

Of course, very few people know the inside story.

In fact, apart from Charlize and Alexis, even Lao Qiang and Addison Young only knew that Jenny and Alexis had some relationship.

But this is Hollywood—connections are everywhere.

As long as you can make money!

However, when the cast list of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was announced, it still caused a stir in the media——

This is not because everyone thinks there is something shady about Charlotte casting two new actors as the protagonists.

——Although it does.

In the media and public consciousness, it is true that as Charlotte said, Charlotte Booth's movies do not need big-name actors, and it does not matter if they use pure newcomers.

——The director Charlotte herself is already a big enough name.

Hiring new people is a sign of sincerity to save money and focus on special effects and film production.

——Of course, this is also because the director is Charlotte.

If it were an unknown director and a newcomer was used for such a large-scale production, the reputation of "shoddy production" would definitely not escape him.

It's like the same business idea, proposed by Jack Ma and proposed by an ordinary English teacher, are definitely two different situations -

The former is an industry prediction and a guide to getting rich, while the latter is nonsense and daydreams...

In short, the media and the public readily accepted the fact that the two protagonists of "Pirates of the Caribbean" were both newcomers.

Even before the filming of the movie started, the popularity of the two people skyrocketed.

Of course, this is a good thing for Jenny, who is determined to make a career in Hollywood.

However, after Alexis reminded her once through a dream or acting space, although Jenny enjoyed the treatment, she did not get carried away and continued to prepare for the movie conscientiously.

But Phoenix Retton was a little troubled.

——No one else, because this is River Phoenix under the pseudonym.

Although it was once a hit, it was several years ago after all.

Ruifan, who was now accustomed to his identity as a headless horseman and a ghost, was obviously a little uncomfortable with it.

In particular, he had to prevent his identity as a ghost from being exposed.

However, Charlotte is not too worried——

"You'll only appear as Phoenix Retton during the filming of the movie anyway.

You usually live in seclusion as a ghost. Reporters can't find you at all, so what's there to worry about? "

"That's true..."

Ruifan smiled and said,

"But Depp..."

Previously, River had revealed his transformation into a ghost to his two good friends, Johnny Depp and Keanu Reeves, through dreams.

Keanu Reeves, who had been haunted by Dracula's first embrace curse, accepted this easily and contacted Reda from time to time.

But because Johnny Depp was too timid, he instinctively blocked the memory of ghosts in his mind, which made Ruifan not sure whether to be angry or helpless.

"Depp actually just followed his inner wishes. Ruifan, you don't have to worry about him."

Charlotte said with a smile,

"What's more, although Depp instinctively blocked the memories and information about ghosts, his feelings still existed - when it came time to shoot, there were a ship full of ghost actors, but he was the only living captain, which must have been interesting! "

"……Interesting. "

Thinking about the scene described by Charlotte, even though River Phoenix, as the Headless Horseman, is the strongest among ghosts, he can't help but feel creepy.

"Not to mention a coward like Johnny!"

Ruifan couldn't help but sympathize with Depp.

However, considering that this guy instinctively blocked the memory of himself turning into a ghost and entrusting him with dreams, Ruifan thought it would be a good choice to let him exercise his courage.

However, Riveran did not expect that before the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" started, his good brother Johnny Depp, who followed his heart's wishes, would encounter a little trouble.

The problem also lies in the cast list announced for "Pirates of the Caribbean"——

As mentioned before, no one had any objections to Charlotte's casting of newcomers. They even thought it was the courage and sincerity of a super director and greatly appreciated it.

But many people have some opinions about Depp being able to squeeze into it——

"Looking at Director Charlotte's works, we can find that he rarely collaborates with actors repeatedly - and the actors who collaborate with him repeatedly usually have an unusual relationship with him."

"Charlize Theron, with whom he has collaborated on four films, is his muse, wife and now the mother of his daughter."

"Jodie Foster, who has collaborated with him twice and invested in his movies many times, has an ambiguous relationship with him. If there is no special relationship between these two people, then Hollywood must be a pure place."

"So, what about Johnny Depp, who has starred in Sleepy Hollow, guest-starred in Happy Death Day and Hellraiser, and is now about to collaborate with Charlotte for the fourth time? "

——This is a comment published in a third-rate tabloid. The meaning is simply obvious...
