"Then, I'd better start with the basic information, what kind of person are you?"
Hearing Gavin's first formal question, Renly couldn't help but smile, but he did not directly refute, but thought seriously, "This is a philosophical question, and I am still exploring, who am I? , where should I go…”
Gavin immediately realized that there was something wrong with the way he asked the question, Renly's words made him laugh dumbly, and looking at the narrow light in Renly's eyes, Gavin felt that his back was starting to sweat again, "I mean, everyone at the moment. I know too little about you, whether it is the Screen Actors Guild or IMDB, there is very little information about you, I think we can at least understand some basic information."
"Basic information?" Ren Li's voice rose slightly, and he didn't quite understand the meaning of the question.
Gavin further explained, "On the Internet now, except for your height, weight, and birthday, other information is blank..."
Renly looked intrigued. "I thought that was enough. Is there any special information needed for the actors? I thought our work was the best business card."
Gavin couldn't help being stunned for a moment, his expression embarrassed for a moment - he is a reporter for "US Weekly", or he is used to interviewing in a gossip way, and exploring privacy is their style. It was a bit of a surprise, but fortunately, he was well prepared, and he quickly calmed down.
"That's what I mean. We don't have any information about your work at the moment, including your past experience. Of course, there are more details, for example, we all know that you are British, but your Where exactly is your hometown? Is your bloodline from a different ethnic group? What did you experience when you were a child, what did you do when you grew up, your hair color, pupil color, etc.
Hearing Gavin's question, Renly couldn't help laughing, a little ridiculous and a little funny, "You mean, someone really cares about these details? I thought that the United States is a country of immigrants, and Hollywood is embracing people from the world. Actors everywhere, no one cares about these trivialities. Besides, I'm an actor, not a rugby player."
Gavin could feel the sarcasm in Renly's words, but he didn't panic, "Don't you know? Recently, you have really created a lot of miracles, and the discussion about you in the Yahoo community has never stopped; However, there is really too little information about you so far, all netizens are actively expressing their views, and all the issues I just mentioned are topics for people to discuss."
Ren Li pursed his lips and nodded slightly, but had no intention of answering. From Renly's point of view, the nuanced information didn't matter at all, and he had no plans to become a model.
After Gavin finished his long speech, the room suddenly fell into silence, which made Gavin even more nervous, subconsciously wiped the sweat from his hands, and looked down at the question list he had prepared, "Then if you participate in an audition, , how would you introduce yourself?"
"Good morning, my name is Renly Hall, I am twenty years old and I auditioned for the role of Paul Conroy today. I have a performance ready, can I start now?"
After listening to Renly's answer, Gavin couldn't help choking, and was so blocked that he couldn't speak. There was nothing wrong with Renly's self-introduction, but he didn't know how to answer. Then Gavin saw the smile on the corner of Renly's mouth, and he burst out laughing. Obviously, if we continue to follow the original interview method, then today's exclusive interview time will be wasted.
After thinking about it, Gavin simply put the list of questions back on the table, completely abandoning the original plan, "From 'Pacific War' to 'Buried Alive', people have given a lot of praise for your performance, many people Guessing, you are an actor from a traditional academy, is that so?"
The interview finally raised a standard question, "Yes, I graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and received a complete two-year college education." Renly did not respond modestly to Gavin's praise, but frankly He answered confidently, "During my studies at the academy, I interned in the West End of London for about half a year. After graduation, I came to New York and explored off-Broadway for a while until I got the opportunity to perform 'Pacific War'. So , yes, I do come from a traditional academy."
"West End? Off-Broadway? For a young man like you, it's rare to be able to calm down and immerse yourself in a stage play." Gavin was a little surprised.
As we all know, most British actors will continue to polish themselves in stage plays, but many young actors are often confused by the flowers and applause of Vanity Fair after coming to Hollywood. That Renly chose New York over Los Angeles is an interesting fact in itself.
"In the very beginning, it was the performance task of the academy, but standing on the stage to perform, the feeling is very special, and before you know it, you will become one with the character and truly feel the charm of the performance. "Renly had a look of interest on his face, and you could tell his eyes flashed with excitement when he mentioned the performance." After filming 'The Pacific War', I went back to New York, and once again It's been a very fulfilling life to be involved in off-Broadway acting."
"From 'Pacific War' to 'Buried Alive', there is a time gap of more than half a year. Are you all performing on Off-Broadway?" Gavin showed a surprised expression. This is the real accident. After all, "The Pacific War" "Lanley has already worked with top big names, and after filming, he can still maintain his composure and return to Off-Broadway—and it's not Broadway, which is really impressive." So, what's the name of the show? Yes Any famous work?"
"No, no, no." Renly showed a bright smile and shook his head, looking very relaxed, "The several plays I participated in are experimental works, and one of them was produced by Columbia University students, don't mention the name. , I can't even find relevant information on the Internet."
No wonder. This explains the reason, mobilizing all netizens and not being able to dig out more information.
"What I remember most is the performance in a semi-basement." Renly's expression showed a thoughtful look, and the corners of his relaxed mouth rose involuntarily, "There can only be a maximum of thirty people there, and during the performance that day, the audience There were only a dozen people, but the show mobilized a total of 23 people. That is to say, our actors were even more than the audience. Later, actors who did not perform tasks all sat down and pretended to be audiences. Follow along with applause."
Renly himself couldn't help but smile, but Gavin showed a stunned look, "But that kind of performance experience is really special. Because these audiences are not high-level intellectuals on Broadway, they are just pure theater lovers - and Or the audience who are bored to pass the time, so their reactions are very direct, and they can often feel their emotions during the performance... Hehe." Renly couldn't help chuckling, which made Gavin show a puzzled expression, " At the end, I just walked off the stage and invited the audience to join us, and it was really fun that day.”
Gavin is really dumbfounded now. On the surface, Renly is completely a gentleman who follows the rules, and even has a traditional British abstinence/sexual style; it can't be associated with things like Off-Broadway and underground theaters that have a civilian temperament. . But when you think about it, there is a huge difference between Renly's two roles so far, which not only shows Renly's ambition as an actor, but also his drive to push the envelope.
"I can't imagine such a picture, but I can imagine your joy and happiness." Gavin couldn't help but marveled, "Then you must have been uncomfortable in the past, right? Overnight, All of a sudden all the limelights are on you, which is obviously a huge change in life from before."
"Actually, before Toronto, I didn't really feel that way," Renly said honestly. "I can still go out on the street as normal, and I can go anywhere, and occasionally some audience members can recognize me, but they don't. Can't pronounce my name. So, overall, I feel okay."
Seeing Renly's calm expression, Gavin shrugged, "I don't know about the rest, but for the media reporters, everyone is very lively. Now in the hotel corridor, there are at least 30 reporters waiting for interviews. Your chance. I'm the first today."
"I guess the Emmys may still have some weight." Renly's teasing made Gavin laugh outright, and the next question came out.
"Since you won the Emmy Award, you have been the focus of discussion, and some people on the Internet even wondered if you have a deep background in the entertainment industry, just like Emma Roberts." Gavin finally asked the first gossip, and couldn't help but He was a little excited, which reminded him of the first exclusive interview he got after he became a reporter. He was young and excited.
"Haha." This was Renly's first reaction, after thinking about it seriously, he couldn't help laughing again, "I've been praying for this day with my fingers crossed, but obviously, I'm missing a bit of luck. "
"However, after the Emmy Awards, why did you choose to perform on the street? This is really surprising. Many people think that it was staged in advance." Gavin's questions began to become sharp and gradually showed their edge. .
"If they want to think so, it's their freedom." Renly unexpectedly did not defend, but shrugged calmly, "Although I don't know, shooting a street performance video and uploading it to YouTube, this Any help to my career as an actor; but...it's my honor to be able to entertain the netizens."
The upright attitude of Lan Auditorium made Gavin speechless. He thought about it for a while and asked aggressively, "So you mean, your family really doesn't have an acting background?"
"If there is, so what?" Renly asked directly without evading, and Gavin was choked.
