Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 348: Trouble with beard

Of course, no matter how suitable Charlotte is to play John Constantine in Charlize's eyes, he will never play.

In this regard, he is not very confident in his acting skills.

After all, directing other people's acting and acting in person with oneself are actually two feelings.

Charlotte has always felt that it is often difficult to achieve effective balance by directing and acting.

If it's a small-cost movie and there is nothing else in it, he can try it.

But in a commercial film with a big investment like "Detective of Hell", he still dare not make such an attempt.

What's more, he plans to use this movie to deal with the famous Earl Dracula and the unknown ghost.

In this case, Charlotte feels that she is more suitable to be a director and a behind-the-scenes man than to jump directly to the stage.

Therefore, how to train Keanu Reeves' acting skills has become a problem.

Charlotte studied for a long time, and finally decided to find Aciva Gosman, who was sent by Warner, who was more familiar with the original "Constantin", to do it with him.

——Be sure to let Keanu Reeves act like a real John Constantine on the premise of ensuring his own charm.

*********

Keanu Reeves didn't know that the entire crew of "Hell Detective", from the director to the screenwriter, was not very confident that he could play Constantine well.

Of course, Reeves also knows that his acting skills are not very good. After all, film critics say this every year, every month, every day.

It can be said that after so many years in Hollywood, he has long been accustomed to the evaluation of "no acting skills".

He did not deny this evaluation, nor did he give up his pursuit of acting skills.

However, his mentality is very good.

——If the acting skills are not good, then play more movies and continue to temper.

Sooner or later, I will practice it!

Regarding the question of whether he can continue to receive good movies, Reeves has a kind of fascinating self-confidence.

The fact is also true.

At least, Keanu Reeves has not been short of films since the release of "Life and Death" until now.

Although there are no classic works, there are not none that are good.

At least, Keanu feels pretty good about the "Devil's Advocate" that played against Al Pacino.

Even though his performance in this film is still evaluated by film critics as "completely relying on face", he still feels a lot of progress.

For Keanu, a true Buddhist young man who believes in Buddhism, this is already very good.

What's more, he also made friends with Al Pacino, and the film's box office results are really good.

"Although, it is indeed inferior to "Guillotine Valley" and "Sixth Sense"..."

The former was the 1995 North American box office champion.

For the latter, the total box office in North America reached a staggering more than 350 million U.S. dollars.

—— Although the box office momentum of "Independence Day" was even stronger in the first week of its release, the overall box office curve was not as stable as "Sixth Sense". This resulted in it not exceeding the total box office performance of "Sixth Sense".

Now, unless there is another dark horse, "Sixth Sense" will basically lock in the 1996 North American box office champion...

Of course, Keanu is not the kind of person who likes to compare.

Otherwise, he wouldn't know that his "Sirius" band performed at an amateur level at all, and he would like to pay his own money to tour everywhere.

——Although he likes rock and drag racing, Reeves is still a buddhist youth, and he still enjoys the process.

Therefore, when he mentioned "Drifthead Valley" and "Sixth Sense", it was not for comparison, but to convince himself--

Charlotte, the director of his next movie, is exactly the director of the two movies he mentioned earlier. And now, the other party asked him to renew his beard and appear on the big screen in a new image.

This makes Keanu feel that he needs to consider one or two.

It should be said that growing beards on male stars is not a big deal in the land where rough brothers are popular in the United States.

Many viewers even think this is more masculine.

Keanu Reeves himself hadn't had a beard before.

However, he did rarely appear on the big screen with a face full of beard and stubble before.

In the words of "Life and Death" director Jane de Bont, "It is a crime to cover this handsome face with a beard."

And now, a prepared "criminal" appeared.

Although Keanu does not intend to rely on his face for a lifetime, but after so many years in Hollywood, he also knows what his advantage is.

Therefore, he was a little hesitant about Charlotte's request to grow a beard.

However, considering that the other party is indeed very powerful as a commercial film director, there is certainly no reason to make such a request. Keanu finally decided to listen to the director.

"Anyway, the other party asked me to join the group a few days in advance, and he will definitely explain it to me at that time."

Mr. Reeves comforted himself.

*********

It should be said that Keanu Reeves's guess is not wrong.

Charlotte did explain to him the reason for growing his beard on the day he entered the crew-

"Because your previous image is too far from John Constantine!"

Mr. Director is outspoken and authentic,

"I need a Constantine with a decadent charm, righteous and evil, not an exorcist who can only be handsome!"

"..."

——Well, this is really straightforward!

Keanu Reeves, who cannot be refuted, can only try various new outfits under the guidance of the director and the screenwriter named Aziva Gosman...

"Sally, is your boyfriend always so demanding of actors?"

While trying on makeup, Keanu also met a new friend he met in the crew of "Devil's Advocate"——

Charlize Theron.

This beautiful girl has a lot of rivalries with Keanu in "Devil's Advocate" ~www.readwn.com~, and she admires her acting talent very much.

Therefore, when the crew of Hell Detective met each other, Keanu was very happy.

He had heard of the relationship between the other party and director Charlotte Booth, so he had the above question.

"It's not so harsh."

Charlize shrugged.

"Charlotte pays special attention to the image design of an actor in the movie, which often means that he has any special ideas-that is how the special image of a witch like I am in "Driftwood" was born."

"I see!"

Keanu suddenly realized.

"In that case, did Mr. Director do it for me?"

"Essentially he was for the movie, but—"

The girl pointed her finger to the camera not far away recording every outfit of Mr. Reeves,

"There are also elements of his evil taste in it."

"……What's the meaning?"

"Do you know Johnny Depp's "interesting" in "Dropped Head"?"

Charlize asked amusedly.

"I know!"

——How could Keanu Reeves, who is Depp’s friend, not know this?

Especially after the release of the videotape of "Dropped Head", the sound of "interesting" in the clip, which was scared of its true value, became a weapon for their group of damaging friends to laugh at Depp.

Could it be--

"Charlotte really likes shooting clips! Your different outfits will probably be collected in the clips too!"

Charlize’s later words proved Keanu’s conjecture,

"Maybe you will be given a name, "Keanu Reeves Drag Show"!"

"..."

Mr. Reeves suddenly felt like he was on a thief ship.
