Zachary Levy also got the role of "Rayne Evans", which made him somersault with joy and nearly broke himself.

Zachary's acting skills are decent, he has a certain foundation in dancing and singing, he can create a silly and funny Ryan, and make Sharpay look more "bad".

Getting this role means that he will get a high salary, and Zachary can finally quit his job in the supermarket and concentrate on acting. He was so excited that he hugged Wang Yang, and the wolf kissed Wang Yang's cheek a few times. In the end, Wang Yang saw that he refused to let go and wanted to continue kissing, so he couldn't wait and had to use force, making Zachary lie on the ground and calm down for a long time.

The actors who play Sharpay and Ryan have all been found, and it is not difficult to find candidates for the black friends "Chad Denver" and "Tyler Mikasey" of the male and female protagonists.

It's good to have her act professionally during the audition. Although the height of 168 cm made her look a bit tall, Wang Yang still chose her. This girl has a unique elf-like temperament, and she can create a new style of Kathy Nelson.

The official website of "High School Musical" also released the news and photos of these confirmed role candidates, but the outside media did not respond. There are no big stars, so naturally there is no report. Jessica - Alba? who is she? Oh, and some TV roles before? Anyway, not very famous. Although she looks sweet, there are too many beautiful girls, why report the latest developments of a girl who has no fans?

And Rachel McAdams, Zachary Levi, they came to school movies after horror movies? Does that rising star director want to make a scary school musical? What a joke!

So only some online media reported the news,

The focus of attention is also Wang Yang, because compared to his movie actors, his popularity is the highest.

Of course, those fans who are paying attention and looking forward to "High School Musical" are more interested in this movie. The image of the heroine has not disappointed them, but their question now is why the male lead has not been decided yet ?

For the candidate of the leading actor "Troy Burton", Wang Yang has scratched his head recently. He has searched all over the agencies in Los Angeles, but among the handsome guys who are willing to audition, he can't find anyone who meets his requirements. A handsome guy is handsome but not sunny enough, sunny enough but not charming enough, charming enough but not tall enough, and he has to look like a high school student, and he has to be paid for a rookie... All these requirements add up, and none of them are suitable .

"My dear boss, I think it's time for you to go to New York." Mark Slante had a kind smile on his face, but he still had a feeling of needing to be beaten.

Los Angeles and New York jointly lead the trend and culture, and the film and television industry in Los Angeles is prosperous; while New York is popular with fashion celebrities, as well as Broadway plays. They often communicate with each other, just like movie actors. In desperation, Wang Yang had no choice but to board a plane to New York and go to the Big Apple City to find a candidate for Troy Burton.

It was also the first time for Wang Yang to come to New York. Compared to Los Angeles, New York seemed more prosperous and crowded, and there was a busy atmosphere everywhere. People were coming and going on the streets, which made him feel a little out of breath.

Before coming to New York, Flame Films had already submitted the request for casting to the New York Branch of the Screen Actors Union, as well as some agencies, and needed time to wait for their reply. Wang Yang, who had nothing to do, became a tourist. During the day, he went to see the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building and other places. At night, he went to Broadway to watch musicals. By the way, he kept an eye on whether there was a suitable actor.

Today, Wang Yang came to New York University Film School to play. After graduating from high school, he had the opportunity to continue his studies here, but he finally chose USC School of Film and Television. His favorite director Robert Zemeckis was USC He is an alumnus, so he loves his house and his hometown; secondly, Los Angeles and San Francisco are not far away, and the climate is no different, and Hollywood, the mecca of movies, is in Los Angeles.

Walking on the campus of the university, Wang Yang is no different from an ordinary student here. He has a young face and a youthful breath. He sits on a bench for people to rest and looks at the students passing by. The tranquility that can only be felt on campus. After resting for a while, he walked to other parts of the campus. When he saw the beautiful scenery, he picked up the digital camera and took pictures.

After walking for a while, Wang Yang suddenly felt that someone was following him. In this regard, his sense has always been very keen, so there should be no mistake. He frowned and looked back, and saw a blond white man of the same age looking at him not far away. He was about 180cm tall, wearing an old gray windbreaker, his hair was messy, and his face was very pale. Like a vampire in a movie.

Could it be that he is following me? Wang Yang turned his head in doubt, continued to walk for a while, stopped and turned his head to look, the guy was still following behind!

The blond white man glanced at Wang Yang, put his hands in the pockets of the windbreaker, but turned and walked away, but he stopped suddenly after walking a few steps, as if he had made up his mind, he turned and ran towards Wang Yang again. Wang Yang just stood where he was, and waited for the blond white man to come up to him before he asked, "Hey buddy, are you following me?"

"Well, I recognize you." There was a smile on the blond white man's haggard face, and his voice was hoarse: "You are Wang Yang, aren't you?" Wang Yang nodded and said, "Yes, it's me." The blond The white man stretched out a hand and introduced himself authentically: "Mr. Wang, hello, my name is Michael Pete and I am 17 years old." Wang Yang shook hands with him, and Michael Pete looked at him and said lightly: "I miss you I came to New York to look for the leading actor in "High School Musical", do you think I'm suitable?"

"Oh, you?" Wang Yang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that the blond white man followed him to recommend himself. He looked at Michael Pitt and seriously looked at this young face, light blue pupils, wide lips, and messy blond hair, very decadent, a bit like Leonardo Di Caprio is quite handsome, but he is definitely not related to "Sunshine Handsome Guy".

Looking back, Wang Yang shook his head and said: "No, your temperament is not suitable, you are very, uh..." After thinking for a while, he thought of a suitable description, and said: "It's like the singer in the dark bar, but What I need is a sunny basketball captain."

"Oh." Michael-Peter was silent. He took out a pack of crumpled cigarettes from his pocket, and handed one to Wang Yang. Wang Yang waved his hand and said with a smile, "I don't smoke. You shouldn't either. , you are not yet an adult." Michael-Peter smiled slightly, ignored Wang Yang's advice, took out a lighter, lit the cigarette, took a deep breath, sprayed it to the side, and looked at Wang Yang and asked : "Mr. Wang, is there any other suitable role for me?"

"High School Musical" is a positive movie, and no character's temperament is decadent. Wang Yang shook his head with a smile and said, "Sorry, no." Michael Pete let out another calm "Oh" and took another big puff of cigarette, refusing to let go of the cigarette holder until he suddenly coughed violently. stand up.

Seeing Michael Pitt coughing in pain, Wang Yang couldn't help but stepped forward to help him gently pat his back, saying, "Dude, stop smoking."

After his cough subsided, Wang Yang pointed behind him and said, "I have to go." After walking two steps, he turned back to Michael Pete and smiled, "Hey, if you smoke at school, the school will ignore you." Is it? Be careful!"

"The school is in charge of me?" Michael Pitt laughed self-deprecatingly. Did the young director think he was a student here? He looked at Wang Yang who was getting farther and farther away, and remembered his current situation. He picked up the cigarette in his hand and took another deep puff, then threw the remaining cigarette on the ground and stomped on it with his feet. , put his hands in the pockets of the windbreaker, and quickly chased after him.

After walking for a while, Wang Yang noticed that Michael Pete was still following him, so he couldn't help but stop, and asked Pete who was not far away: "Dude, is there anything else?"

Michael Pitt came over, looked at Wang Yang with wide eyes, a trace of struggle flashed across his pale face, and finally pleaded: "Sir, give me a role."

Seeing him like this, Wang Yang thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, there is really no suitable role for you." He didn't know what to say, so he spread his hands and said, "I'm really I have to go." After that, he continued to walk towards the parking lot, it was almost dusk, and he was going back to the hotel.

But when it came to the parking lot, Michael Peele was still far behind. Wang Yang ignored it, "High School Musical" really doesn't have a character with a decadent temperament, what else can I do? After picking up the car that was rented from the hotel, Wang Yang slowly drove to Michael-Peter's side, looked out of the car window, and smiled at him: "Michael, goodbye, remember to smoke less!"

Michael Pitt silently watched the car speed away until the shadow of the car disappeared in front of his eyes. He exhaled, took out the crumpled pack of cigarettes from his pocket again, smoked for a long time before pulling out one, lit it, and puffed.
