78 Chapter 78 Joining Hands Again (Seeking Recommended Collection) (1/2)

”I hope we can work together again.”

As Lehman said this, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became complicated.

Davis's heartbeat, Lyman's expectations, and Heath Ledger's...choice.

”Kelly Gang” or ”Rage”.

When the two discussed before, Heath Ledger already knew that Lehman’s scheduled shooting date for the new movie project would be around the 10th of next month, and the estimated shooting schedule was two months.

There is no doubt that this coincides with the shooting schedule of ”The Kelly Gang”.

In other words, he had to make a choice when faced with two films being invited at the same time.

This is really a trouble of happiness!

I think at the beginning, I often worked hard to be selected, but like now, I have so little initiative in my hands.

Fellow, or...friend?

Looking at Lyman's sincere eyes, it seemed that he didn't need to hesitate any more.

”Of course, it is my honor.”

Davis on the side breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that his signed artist would choose to give up such an opportunity.

Fortunately, my commission has been saved, oh no, my client’s career has taken a step forward, um, yes, I am happy for this.

Davis's face was filled with joy that could not be concealed, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were folded, looking very stupid.

With such a clear intention to play, the following things become much easier.

Heath-Ledger's agent, Davis, will go to discuss with George about salary issues and actors' treatment.

There is nothing to say, Heath Ledger is not expensive, and the negotiations went smoothly.

Not long after, the two parties signed a formal actor contract and sentenced Heath Ledger to join the ”Furious” crew.

As for ”Kelly Gang”, I can only say sorry.

After identifying the very important recruit ”Norman” in the tank quintupper, auditions for other characters are also going on in the next few days.

After repeated selection and comparison, the corresponding actors for several important roles have been released.

”Ass Kuhn” was obtained by Joe Boenser. This actor has played a lot of soldier or army dramas and is rich in experience; he looks tough, has a strong body, and has a mature acting temperament, which is very in line with the characters in the script. The setting, coupled with the lack of reputation and low salary, is even more cost-effective for the crew.

The corner of ”Bible” is officially starred by Brad William Henk. He is also considered a professional soldier, no problem.

It is not difficult to find other role candidates, such as commanders or senior officers of the Allied and German forces, who have appeared but have few roles.

There are not many other things in Hollywood, and there are still enough actors in the reserve, let alone some European and French local actors organized by Europa Pictures.

After some negotiations, they also signed performance contracts with the crew.

So far, the expenditure in terms of film remuneration is:

Heath Ledger successfully got the worth of 1.5 million U.S. dollars. The release of ”Buried Alive” has given him a certain market appeal. Moreover, the scenes in the play are quite heavy, and the filming workload is heavy, and the natural treatment will be correspondingly increased. it is good.

The remaining major roles are mostly worth between 500,000 and 1 million U.S. dollars. The gap between them depends mainly on their respective resumes and past achievements.

Hollywood has its own set of calculation methods related to actors' worth, so the salary generally given seems reasonable.

Just when the actor's preparations went smoothly, a bad news came.

In an office in the headquarters building of Paramount Pictures, Lyman, George, and Sandy all frowned slightly, and the good mood of the past was gone.

Sandy is the person in charge dispatched by Paramount Pictures. George has a certain position of Europa Pictures. Only Lyman is responsible to the crew.

But as far as this matter is concerned, the three are standing in the same trench.

The reason is simple. In any case, everyone hopes that the film can be successfully completed, and all the troubles that arise make people instinctively dislike it, let alone a lion like the other party.

”What happened to CAA, don't they want this movie to be completed smoothly?”

Lyman was angry, yes, he was angry.
