Legendary Hollywood Producer

It started to rain outside, and Roman could clearly feel it through the window.

The weather forecast last night said that it would rain today. Sure enough, although the time came late, it always appeared.

It is now more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and Roman is in the conference room of Manhai Entertainment.

Everyone discussed the creation of the film "The Devil Wearing Prada", the director David Frankel, Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and other key personnel and responsible The staff for the outfit and makeup for this shooting are also here.

A few days ago, after asking Western European Films to come up with a detailed plan to promote the "Hangover" movie, Roman did not forget to pay attention to the progress of another movie.

Because the role of Miranda in the script aroused Meryl Streep’s desire to perform, Roman didn’t spend much time, and the old drama player joined the crew. Later, it took nearly a week. During the negotiation, Anne Hathaway also joined in with a salary of $5 million.

At this point, all the actors are in place, and director David Franker hastened to gather the main creative staff to hold another comprehensive script-reading meeting.

Raindrops kept falling from the sky to the ground, and everyone in the meeting room was also expressing their own opinions. Roman listened quietly, and occasionally commented.

I saw that Emily Blunt was speaking at this time. She played Miranda’s most valued subordinate in the movie, "... Emily is complacent here, because she has just been promoted, in fact She was very excited, but because she was working in an editorial agency, she suppressed this feeling. Instead, she acted nonchalantly. She was even more disdainful of Andy standing next to her."

Emily Blunt finished this paragraph, and Anne Hathaway said, "The scene here is the first time Andy has been affirmed by the editor-in-chief Miranda, so if you show it, you need to smile a little, but Don’t be too much, because Miranda is doing business in the office, and Andy is very afraid of her and dare not let her see that her mouth is wide..."

This is a female drama, and the storyline of the movie almost revolves around the three of them. This time the main script meeting was also what they felt after reading the script during this period of time.

Roman has been listening for a while, and the three actors are all prepared, and they are all well-informed about their roles.

At this time, it was Meryl Streep's turn to speak.

Although the script has only been in her hands for less than two weeks, she has read it many times, and the small notes of the characters are even more of her daily life when she reads it.

Meryl Streep sat up straight and said, "Miranda has the singlest mentality here, and the best to master. She is a big man, every move can bring changes to the fashion circle, so she herself She is very confident, coupled with the popularity of magazines around the world, so she is used to being strong, here..." After this paragraph, Meryl Streep didn't mean to stop at all. She went on to say, "In the original book, colleagues around me always pay attention to their own image when facing Miranda. A wrong glance will make Miranda embarrassing. So my understanding is that Miranda is like being at work. A machine, mercilessly, is still a person with a strong desire to control."

"Going back to the interview scene, we can see that Miranda was in her own world the whole time, and she didn't care about the feelings of Andy and Emily. She was almost habitual to beat Emily’s confidence and express herself. He’s dissatisfied and always keeps his unchanging smile. This is Miranda, an extreme self, a strong professional and full control desire... This is a fairly interesting character."

For such a precise interpretation, not only the director David Franker agreed, but also Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Roman on the side all made a serious listening attitude.

The person in charge of setting makeup on the side smiled and asked Meryl Streep, "Do you think Miranda should have the same blond hair style as Andy?"

"I don't have any opinion on this, everything has been set for the effect of makeup." Meryl Streep thought for a while, and added: "Even if I use Wintour's classic blond hair styling directly from the character prototype, I am too. Yes, I have already offended her anyway, and I don't care about it anymore, do I?"

After contacting Roman, he discovered that Meryl Streep’s personality is also very strong, and he doesn’t care much about other people’s feelings. It’s just like now that he directly proposed to use Wintour’s look, and he was not afraid to offend Wen. Tours.

David Franker agreed: "Very well, we have one more choice. When we try on makeup, we will see the effect. So what hair color should I use for Emily? Red or brown. Well, it can also contrast with the other two characters."

When Roman heard they were discussing hair color, he also suggested, "Maybe we can try to give Miranda a silver hair color, which will highlight the strength of the character. As for the role of Emily, red and Brown is okay. Compare the two colors to see which one is more suitable.” In his previous life Roman watched the movie, he noticed Miranda's short silver hair style, which is a bonus to the character's image.

The producer has spoken, and the makeup artist hastily recorded the request. Anyway, when the time comes to design the look, they still have the idea.

After reading the script, the three actresses also tried on the scene for a while, the scene where Andy first entered the magazine to work and was mocked by Miranda to dress up.

Meryl Streep’s acting skills are of course needless to say, he easily managed the role of Miranda and performed it perfectly; Emily Blunt is also very reassuring, this is an interview for Roman After such a long time of pondering, it’s also more comfortable for Emily’s role; as for Anne Hathaway, although she also performed, she clearly sees the gap between her and the other two actors, but the performance is still pretty good. Okay, at least the script lines, action design, etc. have been practiced, not the kind of people who have not read the script a few times and come to try the show in a hurry and have no professional attitude. Roman is a bit worried about the vase beauty who mainly relies on her face to eat early in her career. Fortunately, Anne Hathaway is not the kind of young and energetic person who does not seek to be motivated.

Time passed quickly, and after the script meeting was over, the crew also began to prepare for filming.
