Chapter 362: 1 more nomination

The attention of the North American media quickly shifted away from the Harry Potter series, because the most intense competition for the awards season kicked off. There are more topics to report and hype, and it is easier to attract the public in a short time. attention.

Although Harvey Weinstein left North America a long time ago and went to Australia to supervise the final literary filming of "The Matrix", Ryan's team has also gained a lot of public relations experience from "Remains of a Deserted Island" in North America. After the screening, they became active among many judges and the media.

Compared with the same period last year, the public relations efforts of Ryan and Jenkins Pictures have dropped significantly. Even the kk agency, after receiving Ryan’s support, has focused on Charlize Theron’s Golden Globes and the best The best actress is nominated above.

As for Ryan himself, as long as the nomination is guaranteed.

As usual, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the nomination list for the 71st Oscar more than a month in advance.

Although "Legend of a Deserted Island" only got three nominations for best actor, best director and best picture, it was the three most important nominations, enough to make Ryan feel satisfied.

Like previous Oscars, there are many nominations related to Ryan. The theme song of "Prince of Egypt" was nominated for best original song, and "Peerless Tribulation" was nominated for best visual effects and so on.

The biggest winners of the nomination are the other three films.

"Saving Private Ryan" became the biggest winner of the nomination, and got eleven nominations for best director, best actor, best picture, etc. The only pity is that DreamWorks' submission for best supporting actor for Ryan did not win Nominate.

This is also normal. Since Ryan has been nominated for best actor for three consecutive times, no one can say anything after taking out a best supporting actor nomination.

"Life is Beautiful" directed and performed by Robert Benigni is another winner. This Italian film has won a total of seven nominations.

Perhaps the Weinstein brothers left Miramax early and established a relationship with Weinstein Pictures. "Shakespeare in Love" received nine nominations including Best Director, Best Picture and Best Actress. A lot less than the previous life.

And because of Ryan's relationship. "Perfectly Beautiful", which appeared after a year's delay, also received three nominations for Best Supporting Actor, Best Actor and Best Actress.

Public relations of kk brokerage company. In addition, Charlize Theron's performance in the film is quite outstanding, and the South African Diamond was nominated for the first Oscar performance award in his life.

Ryan is very interested in whether the first murder in Oscar history will take place.

There is also Gwyneth Paltrow, with the relationship established for many years with the old Paltrow and others. If the public relations are effective-Spielberg also greeted Ryan-it is not impossible for her to get the queen, but the hat of the water queen may not be able to escape.

Leonardo DiCaprio, who also appeared in "Shakespeare in Love", was extremely disappointed that he did not receive the best actor nomination. He also called specifically and vented that he would refuse to participate in the Oscars.

Ryan persuaded him a few words, Leonardo also dispelled the idea, otherwise he would not participate in the award ceremony. If you say such a wonderful reason with a big mouth like in the previous life, you should offend the old man of the academy, and then embark on the old road of constant nominations but unable to win awards.

Anyway, Ryan's goal is not above this Oscar, just a little attention to the next nomination list. He shifted his goal, dieting, fitness, and practicing swordsmanship took up most of his time, and occasionally paid attention to the progress of the casting.

The efficiency of the crew is extremely fast. Only in the New Year of 1999 did the audition advertisements, and in late January, they started the first round of super large-scale auditions.

This is no wonder the crew, there are too many candidates to sign up. If it continues, it is likely that there will be more than 100,000 people in the end. The audition will be held for 100,000 minors. It is estimated that it will break the Guinness World Record.

The crew reached an agreement with the Ninth Studio in the UK. Their largest studio outside London will be the location for the crew to build a studio and hold auditions.

Although I don't know how the little actors were selected in the previous life, but in this life he has become the leader of this project. Ryan is still a little interested in auditions for the audition. He especially picked one of them and came to the set.

The studio has cleared a large vacant lot. It will soon become the set setting site of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It is now full of benches on which are sitting a piece of small actors waiting for audition and theirs. Parents.

Among them, some people specifically come to join in the fun because of interest, but more people definitely want to use this to become famous. As long as they are not fools and idiots, they can think of it. Starring in this series of movies is definitely a matter of fame and fortune.

As for the movie will fail? They never thought that this is the work of Ryan Jenkins!

"Hi, Chris, what a coincidence."

After taking a long look at the crowd waiting for the audition, Ryan was about to go to a few audition rooms, and met Chris Columbus in the corridor.

"It's not a coincidence, but I heard that you are here, and I came here specifically." Chris Columbus's face was obviously tired, "How many times have you, the investor and original author, been to the crew?"

"Chris, you know, I'm preparing for the new movie, and there is other work to be done..." Ryan made a gesture that you understand.

Chris Columbus understood that the child star of the year had already completed the transformation and was no longer a pure actor and screenwriter.

"Can you let me?" behind Ryan, a crisp girl's voice came, "The corridor is very narrow, you block the way."

Only then did Ryan realize that he, a few bodyguards, and George had completely blocked the way to the audition rooms, and couldn't help turning sideways, trying to step aside.

"You...you are Ryan."

The little girl’s voice was full of surprises, obviously she didn’t expect to see the idol here, "Ryan, do you audition for us yourself?"

"Sorry, Ryan." The middle-aged woman next to her gently pulled the little girl. "She was a little too excited."

"It's ok."

The eyes floated over the little girl, a girl about the same age as Taylor, with fine brown curly hair, and a few faint freckles on her white face on both sides of her nose.

"Damn, I forgot to bring my autographed notebook." The girl was complaining.

It seems to be a little younger than I think, but there should be nothing wrong with his appearance. After all, whether it is a movie or my own image, I have seen it too many times. Ryan couldn't help but squeezed his chin and looked at the little girl carefully.

"Ryan...Ryan..."

The little girl's reaction was so sensitive that she seemed to be comparable to Taylor.

"This little lady, can you know your name?" Ryan asked directly.

"Me?" After all, the little girl's age was here, and she was a little surprised at this moment.

But her mother was very shrewd, as if she had realized something, and gently pulled her beside her. The little girl immediately laughed, "My name is Emma, ​​Emma Watson. Hello, Ryan."

With that, Ryan stretched out a small hand, and Ryan shook it lightly, and said very directly, "Hello, Emma, ​​you feel very good for me, come on, I am very optimistic about you."

"Really?" The little girl was almost jumping for joy, but bit a finger, "Ryan...Ryan, do you know the role I'm auditioning for?"

"Isn't it Miss Know-it-all?" Ryan frowned deliberately. "If not, it would be disappointing."

"Of course not...ah, no, it's not right." The little girl was anxious, as if she didn't know what to say, and gradually calmed down after a while, "I like Hermione Granger the most."

"Then try hard, Miss Emma." Ryan finally encouraged, "I hope to see your name in the final list."

Whose name appears in the final list is not up to you. When the little girl leaves, it is inevitable that she will slander.

After the girl and her mother entered the audition room, Chris Columbus, who was watching the show, said, "Ryan, do you think this girl is suitable for Hermione?"

"Her temperament and appearance are very similar to my original idea."

That's for sure. When the series was copied, whenever the name Hermione Granger was written, Ryan's mind must be the girl and the image she grew up.

And in the previous life, she was the most popular actor in the Harry Potter series, not one of them, but it can also be said that she was one of the few actors who did not have long-term disabilities.

The experience of the previous life has proved that the Miss Know-how she played has a strong market appeal. Now that she has encountered it, Ryan will of course consider her first. This is not to say that she must be her, but the child stars in Europe and the United States have This trait is basically disabled after old age. What if the newly selected actor becomes disabled after a few years?

That will definitely bring losses to the movie.

There are very, very successful experiences here, and you have to choose to take risks. It is not brave, but stupid.

"Well, I will pay special attention to her in the audition later." The little girl obviously made a good impression on Chris Columbus.

Ryan nodded. With the words of him and Chris Columbus, as long as Emma Watson's performance in the audition is not catastrophic, there must be no problem in passing the first few rounds.

As for the other small actors, it depends on their luck.

Several audition rooms went around, Ryan asked Chris Columbus to pay more attention to the audition situation. Like this kind of audition, insider and related parties are always indispensable. Ryan doesn’t care. Almost all Hollywood auditions It looks like this, too normal.

What Ryan is worried about is that this is an audition for underage actors, and he doesn't want to see some terrifying scandals appearing in his company's crew. ()
