362 Chapter 361 Casting Template (seeking subscription recommendation) (1/2)

There are many people in the crew, so the efficiency is naturally fast.

On the second day, Lehman called a meeting again.

No way, there are too many people? If you don't have a meeting, you won't be able to get together.

”This preparatory meeting is to determine the direction of the casting.”

The theme of the meeting was set, and stylists, clothing and other personnel began to appear at the meeting. A simple character relationship diagram was drawn on a whiteboard, chaired by Nolan.

In fact, there are not many main characters in this ”Batman”.

Bruce Wayne, prosecutor Rachel Dawes, Gotham City Police Chief Jim Gordon, the biggest villain is Henry Duka, the leader of the ”Shadow Warriors League”.

Important supporting roles include Alfred, the butler of Wayne Manor, Lucius Fox, a talented employee of Wayne Enterprise, who provides all the high-tech weapons of Batman, and the Scarecrow Jonathan Klein, who also leads the second. The main line, the story of Arkham Asylum.

Nolan wrote under Bruce Wayne's name: ”Height must be over 1.8 meters, strong build, about 30 years old, tough face, outstanding temperament...”

Then I drew a line to connect to Rachel Dawes, ”If the heroine is young and beautiful, it is best to have a sense of love when standing with the heroine.”

Everyone at the meeting laughed in a low voice. Everyone knew that this was just because the whole play was full of men, and it was an ambiguous line of feelings that was deliberately set, ”The height must be more than one meter seven.” Director Kok added: ”Bruce Wayne is tall, so the heroine shouldn't be too short, the main thing is to be pretty.”

”Haha.” Everyone laughed again.

Do you choose a vase? Everyone knows what it means.

After roughly speaking about the casting criteria, Warner’s casting director added, “There must be a significant role for the African Americans. This is of great help to the black audience.”

”Well, about the actors, let me emphasize again.”

Nolan concluded: ”First of all, Batman, Bruce Wayne, must be strong, not loose, and put on a battle suit to give people the feeling that he is Batman.

Then there is Director Gordon, who is calm and responsible, a bit of a person in the system.The whole should be slightly mature.

Butler Alfred, this person is very important. As the old man of Wayne Manor, he also played a big role in the transformation of Bruce Wayne into Batman. His performance is a bit difficult to grasp. You must find an experienced actor. ......”

When selecting actors in Hollywood, all aspects must be considered, and more emphasis is placed on the meaning of the management rather than the director.

Nolan could only make such requests in the early stage, talking one by one, with details, and finally said: ”I will introduce you to everyone. This is Langdon Gasco, who has always cooperated with me in casting. ”

A man stood up and said hello. It was obvious that this was Director Nolan's confidant assistant director.

This is also the rule set by the two parties before, and it is not Nolan playing any scheming, Lehman said from the beginning that his person should be responsible for casting the cast.

Of course, Warner also has a share here, and the person who cooperated with Nolan to organize the role template at the beginning of the meeting was named Allen Austin.

Seeing that the preparatory meeting is almost going on, Lehman said: ”The casting is a big project. Anyone who wants a suitable actor can recommend it, but whether it can be selected or not, I will say otherwise. In that case, the film’s Production is a task shared by everyone and should not be taken lightly.”

”Well, the meeting is over.”

......

The casting director is an interesting position.

Before the filming started, there were enviable powers, such as friendships, backdoors, and even more. If you are shameless, it is not difficult to be a groom every night, but once the casting is completed, it will be again. Marginal figure.

And if the selected actors do not perform well on the crew, they are likely to be blamed.

After all, you put people in. You didn't filter them well, so don't blame you.

They may not have the final word, but there is always a degree of choice.
