Nicole Kidman and an assistant just got off the car in the parking lot of the Cinema Administrative District when Linda Waggs came up.
The two hugged and greeted each other enthusiastically. Linda and Nicole walked side by side toward the No. 1 office building, and said, "Nicole, it really surprised me that you could agree to play the role of Queen Kellandriel."
"Actually, I think so too. To be honest, Linda, I sorted out other Hollywood actresses myself and found that nothing is more suitable than me. Think about it, if they were given to others, they would have to mess up the show, it would seem like they would have messed up the show, so of course I would have to come in person."
"Ha, I can only say that you will definitely not regret it in the future. You have to believe Simon's vision. He spent $10 million just to buy the copyright of "The Lord of the Rings"."
"certainly."
The two said that this had entered the office building.
Waiting for the elevator clearance, Nicole asked again: "What is Simon doing now?"
"It's a coincidence that the audition for your 'granddaughter'."
Nicole reacted immediately: "Princess Arwen?"
"Yes," Linda and Nicole walked into the elevator together, and then said, "It can be seen that compared to Kellandriel who directly chose you, Simon hesitated about the actor who played Princess Arwen. He couldn't get which one to choose, so he personally arranged an audition today."
Nicole nodded, but her mood was complicated.
What the two discussed at this time was naturally the casting of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy that has been very popular recently.
Speaking of which, the reason why it is very controversial is of course because Daenerys Entertainment's publicity offensive was officially launched.
After Peter Jackson completed the late stage of "The Ghost of Terror" at the end of last year, the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was actually secretly established. For more than half a year, Jackson has been working with a team in Australia to write scripts, create demonstration animations, solve special effects solutions, etc.
All this work was completed at the beginning of the month and passed Simon's review, and the casting was officially launched.
As a popular fantasy series comparable to the Western "Journey to the West", casting officially began, announcing that the film has entered the substantive production stage. Daenerys Entertainment also launched the first stage of publicity. After all, it was a continuous filming of trilogy and huge investment. In order to ensure success to the greatest extent, it is necessary to continuously produce various topics to build momentum for the film.
Let’s talk about Nicole Kidman’s side.
The former "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, such as Gandalf, Frodo, and the Elf Prince Legolas, were basically very successful, except Agent Smith. Even if you are not as handsome as Lee Pace, you can't be too ugly.
Therefore, except for Hugo Weiwen, other male characters will basically enable the original version.
As for the two important female characters, Cate Blanchett's elf queen Kellandriel and Princess Arwen played by Liv Taylor, Simon plans to change them all.
Kate Demon King is an actress Simon likes very much, but unfortunately he loses because of his appearance.
Simon also signed the brand new Kellandriel and Nicole Kidman since early on.
Compared to Kate, Nicole, who was at the peak of her appearance in the 1990s, is simply suitable for this role.
However, some problems arise this time.
Nicole is now very wealthy, and the pay for commercial films basically starts at $5 million.
If you package the trilogy according to your normal value, even if you give it a slight discount, the pay will reach the level of tens of millions of dollars, which is obviously beyond the limit that the project can bear.
After all, there are dozens of famous and surnamed characters in the "Lord of the Rings" series. Simon's strategy was to select all second- and third-tier actors. Many important roles, such as Orando Bloom, the actor who plays the Elf Prince, Vigo Mortensen, the actor who plays the Human King Aragon, etc., will not have a fixed salary in the agreement that has been negotiated, but will get weekly salaries like ordinary behind-the-scenes employees. Later, the popular Bloom, the weekly salaries in the agreement were only $2,000.
