Originally, the reporters hoped to forcibly create a topic and set off a fuse between Hugh and Renly.
But obviously, this set doesn't work for Hugh at all, and the friendly and kind answer completely eliminated any possibility of creating conflict; not only that, Hugh also sincerely expressed his expectations, which didn't seem to be polite at all, Genuine friendliness gradually became more and more obvious.
"By the way, did you know that Renly has a movie coming out recently? It's being shown in New York and Los Angeles, and I watched it before we left, and God, he's an amazing actor." And then , Xio looked at the reporters seriously, and said with a smile, "Can you convey my respect to Renly? I really, really want to hear what he thinks about this movie."
The reporters at the scene couldn't help but start to support their foreheads. Not only did they fail to create conflicts, but they also became Cupids for matchmaking? Hugh Jackman almost made a direct show of love in front of reporters.
"Maybe you can tell him that I love him." Xio's words came again, and the reporters were completely helpless.
Then, finally, a reporter couldn't hold back, forcibly interrupted Hugh, and changed the subject immediately, otherwise it would be endless. Now the reporters finally feel the feeling of "reap their own fruit".
"Hugh, in the filming process of this film, in addition to the actors, there are also some professional stage actors, they are actors from the 25th anniversary of the 'Les Miserables' world tour, so, do you think, like this Is there anything special about cooperation?"
The topic finally left Renly and returned to the "Les Miserables" movie, and the reporters were a little overwhelmed in the face of Hugh, who was so enthusiastic and eloquent.
It now seems impossible to force a conflict between Hugh Jackman and Renly Hall; however, comparisons between the two works are inevitable. Coming out in the same year, adaptation of the same novel, a drama and a movie, all horizontal comparisons are inevitable.
It's not just about taking an actor off. Actors in every position, and even screenwriters, directors, producers and other links are not exempt, especially after the theatrical version has achieved such a brilliant achievement. The reason for trying to create a conversation between Hugh and Renly is simply that these two actors are more influential.
After the failure of the first attempt, the reporters obviously will not let it go. After that, there will be a second and third attempt. Until the explosion point is created, the same routine will not stop.
…
Eddie Redmayne was a little nervous, his throat tightened slightly, and the emotions in his chest were up and down, as if thousands of butterflies flapped their wings at the same time, slamming up and down.
Eddie knew that this was a hugely important work, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it was clear at the time of the audition; but actually getting to the premiere was another matter.
Looking at the mighty and surging crowd on Trafalgar Square, it was like being in the noisy scene of New Year's Eve; the difference is that they all came for "Les Miserables", to examine themselves works from. Then, nervousness gripped his throat.
Last year, Eddie participated in "My Week with Monroe" and joined Hollywood's awards season for the first time. The dazzling and overwhelming Vanity Fair situation opened his eyes and really opened the door to Hollywood; however, that Everything is compared with "Les Miserables", but there is no comparison at all.
From scale to attention, from battle to momentum, "Les Miserables" is a well-deserved overlord of this year's awards season. Just one premiere can feel the difference.
Eddie told himself that it was just a premiere; "Les Miserables" was undoubtedly the most suitable work for him, Tom Hooper copied the style of the stage play almost completely, and Eddie was born in the West End of London. An authentic actor, there is a natural fit between the two, and he can't think of any work that is more suitable than "Les Miserables".
So, this is the passport to Hollywood; this is the turning point of the actor's career; this is the best stage for self-expression.
Breathing out a long, long breath, Eddie tried to calm himself down, but the more he thought about it, the more the pressure on his shoulders became heavier, and then the car stopped slowly in front of the red carpet Down, there was no time for hesitation and hesitation, Eddie showed a decent smile:
This is his moment! He is ready, those spotlights and spotlights, those eyes and sights, he is ready.
Open the car door, walk on the red carpet, and then... cheers, applause, whistles, screams, mixed in the silver waterfall of flashing lights, pouring down, all the noise and noise surging, every pore on the body is fully opened, and enjoy Breathing in this heat and madness, there is an illusion in the trance, the illusion of standing in the center of the world.
His vision brightened little by little, and he couldn't help but start wandering in it.
"Eddie! Eddie! Here, Eddie Redmayne!"
That frenzied cry of ecstasy, sharply stimulating Eddie's ears, was everywhere and made people overwhelmed. This was his moment, his own moment.
Eddie followed the voice and cast his eyes, and then saw the hustle and bustle of reporters surging forward one after another, and behind him was a mighty audience of movie fans, one by one crying his name with tears in his eyes.
The corners of his mouth outlined a shallow arc, showing a decent and calm smile, buttoned up his suit, and then walked towards the reporter group with steady steps, and finally stood firmly in place, ready to be interviewed. The matters explained by the agent flashed in my mind quickly, and I remained calm, but I couldn't help but be curious: what questions will the reporters ask
"Eddie, rumor has it that when Renly auditioned for the cast, he was Marius' first choice, and in the end Renly turned down the role, and you got the role, it's true ?"
The smile froze on the lips.
Eddie couldn't believe the question was about Renly! In response to his question, three-quarters of the words were all Renly!
Renly, Renly, Renly! Damn Renly!
The endless Renly, the endless Renly, the ubiquitous Renly, the annoying Renly.
During the "Les Miserables" audition, it was obviously his interview time, but Renly took away his style. If Renly hadn't rejected the role of Marius, it might not have been his turn at all.
In the summer, everyone in high society was talking about Renly at the Almeida Theater, even his parents and family were talking about Renly, and no one even remembered that he had just starred in the movie version. "Les Miserables".
After the release of "Edge of Tomorrow", Renly's name spread all over London, everyone knew that he was a hereditary nobleman, everyone knew that he carried the burden of the family step by step to the present, and all his The effort seems to be insignificant at all.
Now on the premiere of "Les Miserables", it is still Renly, the first question is locked on Renly, and he is just a vassal in the problem. It's as if there is only one actor left in the world, ridiculous! absurd! absurd!
Damn Renly!
It was obviously his moment, why do people care about another actor
Aside from the hype, he couldn't see the guy's talent at all; Harvey Weinstein said that if it weren't for the "hype door," Renly would never have won the Oscars.
Now it seems that the accusation of "Entertainment Weekly" is not groundless, but in the contest of conspiracy and intrigue, they lost this game of chess.
damn it.
The swearing in his heart couldn't stop at all, but the good education from childhood to adulthood still allowed him to control his emotions and looked at the reporter with a smile on his face. However, the words of the answer were still stuck in his throat, and the thick suffocation and annoyance were rampant in his chest, unable to vent.
The reporters didn't have any breathing room at all, and the questions blew up again.
"Have you watched Renly's version of Les Miserables? What do you think of his performance?"
"If Renly played Marius, what do you think he would do?"
"Renly chose Jean Valjean over Marius. What do you think is the reason?"
Renly, it's all about Renly, and in the whole question, there seems to be no other character besides Renly, which makes Eddie's smile completely stiff at the corners of his mouth.
"Renly is a very good actor." Eddie finally found his voice, tried to squeeze a smile, and answered step by step, "I was fortunate enough to perform with him during the audition stage, no doubt, if It is a great honor to be able to reach a cooperation. However, our loss is the gain of the West. I think this is a good thing."

"Then do you think you're better suited to play Marius than Renly?"
The reporter's aggressiveness made Eddie a little flustered, and he chuckled awkwardly, but he still kept his composure, "I don't know, honestly, I don't know, it can only be left to the audience to judge. If I don't If I remember correctly, Renly played Jean Valjean in the Almeida, so maybe that's a question Hugh needs to answer."
Eddie was a little embarrassed; but the reporters still chased after him.
"Why do you think you got the part of Marius? Is it because Renly declined the invitation?"
Eddie's cheeks began to heat up slightly, and it was not easy to keep a smile, "I'm not a casting director, nor a producer, I really can't answer this question. I hope, it's because of mine The performance was good enough to impress the director, so I won the role; I also hope that the audience will appreciate my performance."
After he finished speaking, Eddie couldn't hold back any longer. He made an excuse and left the reporter's interview area almost as if he had fled.
