Legendary Hollywood Producer - Chapter 173
Kylian Murphy lay at home, repeatedly reading job information sent by his agent.
In the last period of time, he also went back to Britain to look for performance opportunities, but unfortunately the competition there was equally fierce, and even because of the lack of production of film and television dramas, the environment was not as good as the Hollywood actors.
As a last resort, he hurried back again.
Until now, he has to look for opportunities every day, and every possible audition is not going to be missed.
But as the number of rejections increased, his mood became more and more bored.
I haven’t paid the rent for the house next month, but I haven’t been able to find a suitable role as soon as possible. Does he really have to rely on playing the background board in exchange for a meager salary to make ends meet?
But what can it be? He is no longer a newcomer. In this industry, the longer he stays, the more he gets mixed up, the more he goes back, which is really a big irony.
The funny thing is that his own career seems to be about to come to that point.
In Los Angeles, there are no one hundred thousand or eighty thousand actors like him who are struggling. Everyone is eager to get a chance to act and hope that one day he will become popular and get more choices instead of the present. , Can’t do anything, passively accept the arrangement.
Fame…Thinking of this term, Kylian Murphy felt as though he was taunting people like him. Daydreaming, hoping to embrace wealth and choose actors as a seemingly shortcut path, in the end can only experience the sadness of reality.
What is called reality is that, apart from having a significant supporting role in a TV series, for so many years, there has been no formal film work.
Perhaps, he is not worthy of being called an “actor”, he can’t even take a more serious role. After all, when Long Tao can say that he is an actor without embarrassment.
Kylian Murphy slumped on the sofa, a little dazed. It seems that the huge Hollywood has no place for him to settle down.
Maybe he should go back? Going back to England, going to London, and going anywhere… At least he still has a family in England and a home, so he won’t be struggling with food and clothing.
Maybe his career as an actor should end here. He has been abandoned for so many years. Even if he persists, he can’t seem to find a way out.
Looking for an ordinary job and living an ordinary life, it’s not that bad when I think of it now…
But, what is the unwillingness in the bottom of my heart?
He slowly closed his eyes and wanted to rest for a while, he was really tired.
“Dingling bell…dingling bell…” A series of noisy sounds seemed to ring in the ears, continuing to vibrate Kylian Murphy’s nerves.
He also pulled him back from half asleep and half awake. He opened his eyes and scanned aimlessly, seemingly not sure where the sound came from.
I was stunned, only to realize that the voice was the sound of a telephone from the next room.
He got up in a hurry, ran into the room, picked up the phone, “Hello!”
A voice soon came from the other end, “Is it Mr. Kylian Murphy?”
“Yes, I am!”
“I’m here to inform you that you have been admitted. This Thursday, the day after tomorrow, I will report to Warner Bros. Pictures in Burbank and participate in the makeup photoshoot of “Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow”.
“Oh, God, what did you just say.” Kylian Murphy was so happy, this sudden surprise made him ask again, “Is it the “Batman” movie, right? Reported the day after tomorrow.
“Yes, remember to be there on time.”
“No problem, I mean, I will definitely be there on time.” Kylian Murphy heard the phone that he picked up in his hand gradually disappeared, and put it down with a look of dismay.
He waved his arms excitedly and beat the air a few times, and from time to time he yelled at the name of his old man. It took him a while before he calmed down from this intense emotion.
This day was really his lucky day. Originally, he planned to go back to the UK to find a job to do, but this call rekindled hope for him.
There is no more ups and downs in life than yes.
This up and down like a roller coaster made his heart beat violently, and his mind was full of thoughts that he wanted to share.
He wanted to prove that his long-standing persistence finally paid off.
“Hey! Zachary Levi, do you know? I passed the audition for the “Batman” movie and I am about to get the role.”
“Well, what you just said, I didn’t hear clearly.” As soon as Zachary Levy picked up the phone, he was questioned. He really didn’t understand what the friend he had just made was talking about.
“I mean, I passed the audition that day.”
“Congratulations, Murphy, I know that your performance will definitely impress those interviewers.” Zachary Levy said with great joy: “So what about you playing that role?”
“This one……”
……
Kylian Murphy really doesn’t know which role he will play, but the result will be announced soon.
On Thursday, he got up early to wash, and even without breakfast, he rushed to the Warner Bros. Pictures headquarters in Burbank.
“I’m here to take part in the makeup photo of the “Batman” crew. May I ask where to shoot.” After explaining his intention to the girl at the front desk, he was taken to the fifth floor by another staff member, “That’s it, you first Go in and make-up.”
“Thank you.”
Walking into a compartment again, there are many costumes in it, and several makeup artists are working on their own tasks. It seems that he is not the only one who has come.
Kylian Murphy was about to ask when a middle-aged man came over, “Your name?”
“My name is Kylian Murphy.”
“Well, you are playing the role of a scarecrow. Come, come over and put on makeup.” The middle-aged man looked through his resume and found Murphy’s name. After checking it, he found that there was no mistake, and he led him to a dressing table.
“Sit down first, and I’ll arrange for a makeup artist to come over.”
“Ok.”
After a while, the middle-aged man returned, and there was an older man behind him.
“You can get it for him.”
The older man nodded and didn’t say anything, and started to draw the character’s image line with a cosmetic pencil.
“You can squint and rest for a while. It will take more than an hour for you to dress up.” The old man reminded him kindly.
“I see.” Kylian Murphy didn’t refuse his kindness and began to close his eyes and meditate. To be honest, he has never painted such a serious dress before. Before, he only needs to put a little powder on it, which is suitable for photogenic. It is not complicated at all.
