After the interview was over, Roy didn't stay too much, packed up and left immediately.
Looking at the "Thor" script in his hand, Renly couldn't help showing a smile. He could feel Roy's kindness. For a newcomer without an agent's care, Roy gave him a lot of guidance just now. valuable information.
In fact, apart from the shackles of Marvel and the choice of commercial movies, in fact, among the many series of Marvel comic heroes, "Thor" is the series with the worst box office results and word-of-mouth feedback, not to mention "Iron Man", "Captain America" and other signs, and even the later "Ant-Man" has achieved a comprehensive overtake in terms of word of mouth, box office, and rate of return.
The "Thor" released in 2011, with an investment of 150 million, only received a box office of 449 million worldwide. Not only did it not make any money, it even made Paramount a small loss of nearly 2,000. Wan; Later, "Thor 2" in 2013, thanks to the rise of Marvel, the box office has improved. The cost of 170 million has been exchanged for 640 million of the global box office, but because of the high publicity expenses , Paramount only made a small profit of 30 million.
It can be said that the rate of return of the "Thor" series has been unsatisfactory, and the global appeal is very limited. If it weren't for the entire Marvel universe pattern of "Avengers", Paramount almost planned to give up.
From this point of view, "Thor" is not as attractive as Roy said.
However, as a newcomer, being so picky is not a good thing, missing the opportunity of "Thor" and never knowing when the next opportunity will come, they should do their best to seize every opportunity they get, Hollywood is not one Passionate about doing charity.
Therefore, Renly still carefully read the script of "Thor". A script and a finished film are two completely different things. The director's task is to transform the script into a picture, while the actor's task is to derive the deep meaning of the character from the script's words. In the last life, Renly had seen enough movies. , but the exposure to the script is very limited.
For the next few hours, Renly hid backstage at Pioneer Village, silently flipping through the script.
As in memory, the script of "Thor" is indeed lackluster, especially the character creation of Thor, which lacks the distinctive features of "Iron Man" and "Captain America". However, Loki is indeed an interesting character. The "Thor" series in the last life still did not give Loki enough room to play, otherwise he has the potential to become the ultimate villain of the Marvel series.
But that's not up to Renly to decide, is it
Returning to the residence, turning on the lights in the hall, and looking around, Chris Hemsworth still hadn't come back, his eyes fell on the "Thor" script in his hand again, Renly suddenly felt that fate is really very strange - last life , Chris became an instant hit with the role of "Thor" Risor, and opened the peak period of his actor career. If there was no Renly spoiler, the development curve of this life should not have changed too much.
So, now that Chris has also been invited to audition for "Thor"? Or is it that Chris has finished his audition and is waiting for the next round of notification? If, say, Renly decided to enter the Saul competition, then how will things change? He and Chris become competitors
This is the first time that Renly has stood at the present moment, looking at the future direction of the previous life so clearly and concretely. He is no longer a bystander, but a participant, a real participant. So, how much will the trajectory of history change? How many hurricanes can he, this little butterfly from the ancient Chinese country in Asia, be able to set off? This is really something to look forward to.
Thinking of this, Renly burst into laughter, returned to his room, put his backpack on the desk, tucked the script in his hand on the bookshelf next to him, and walked into the bathroom to wash away the dust of the day, although he was used to the early morning It's time to get off work, but for Renly, sleeping is a very happy thing, and it's good to be able to stay under the covers for a little longer—even if it's just ten minutes.
Chris Hemsworth opened the door, the lights in the living room showed someone in the house, and he called out, "Renly? Renly?" This is New York, and although it's Manhattan, the law and order in the lower/downtown area is still there. Not to mention Taiping, the thieves who break into the door can be encountered every three to five.
"I'm in the bathroom." Renly answered in a loud voice, passing through the thin wall.
Only then did Chris feel relieved, leaning against the door, and began to read the letters in his hand - Renly is a guy who doesn't care, every time the mailbox at home is jammed, but Renly still doesn't remember to pick up the letter, he can only Wait for Chris to deal with it.
Pick out public letters such as water, electricity, and coal, and put them next to the TV cabinet; then pick out your own letters and Renly's letters, and throw away the rest of the junk advertising letters.
"When did you come back? The bedroom was still empty last night." Renly walked out of the bathroom, wiping his hair, leaning against the bedroom door, chatting and asking.
Chris raised his head and glanced, but he didn't stop picking letters in his hand, "I just got back from Los Angeles this afternoon." My next work is running around, but unfortunately I have little gain. "How are you doing? Is everything going well at work?"
Renly shrugged. "Nothing has changed. I've auditioned two times and I didn't make it." Nothing to hide, truth be told.
Chris laughed, "That's why I refused to shoot TV series." He pointed to Renly with the letter in his hand, and said confidently, "No matter how successful the TV series is, it still can't attract the film company's attention. Note that once you have become a TV actor, it will be difficult to turn around in the future."
"I remember you also came out of a TV series." The smile on the corner of Ren Li's mouth rose slightly.

"Facts." Chris nodded, "Facts!" After repeating it twice, "but those are all about Australia. After coming to the United States, I received a lot of invitations for TV dramas, but I rejected them all. Because I Know this clearly." In fact, these were all told to him by the agent, but for Renly, who had no agent, it was his turn to impart his experience, "Listen to me, even if there is no audition invitation, do not And don't compromise, unless you're already planning to settle down in the TV industry, you're only twenty, and you have countless options."
Chris's rare seriousness, his sincere words seemed to carry a lot of weight, "Take the 'Pacific War' as an example. I was in Los Angeles recently, and I really heard a lot of news. This is indeed a focus work, but all the With all eyes on Hanks and Spielberg, no one notices the actors. That's the dilemma of TV."
Renly smiled. He didn't refute, but he didn't respond. He was even more curious about another detail, "You also heard about the 'Pacific War' in Los Angeles? How about it?"
"The main thing is to be positive. I think Hanks and Spielberg have done a good job again." Chris is very willing to share those inside information, because this is something that Renly can't reach, the corner of his mouth. His smile rose involuntarily, "I heard recently that HBO is launching propaganda, hoping that 'Pacific War' can hit the Emmy Awards, but the voice is not high."
"Technical awards should still be fine." Renly expressed his opinion. After all, the investment of 223 million yuan is there, and the hard power is worthy of recognition.
"Who knows." Chris halfway through his words mysteriously, and paused for a moment, trying to see the inquiry and curiosity in Renly's eyes, but the result failed, which made Chris spread his hands speechlessly, shaking depressedly Shaking his head, "You don't cooperate at all, how can this magic continue."
Renly laughed dumbly, then picked up his smile and asked in a serious tone, "So what the hell is going on in Hollywood?" He looked like he was coaxing a child.
Chris raised his chin slightly and showed a contented smile, "It is rumored that HBO is not optimistic about the prospects of 'Pacific War' this year, although they have to promote it because of Spielberg's face, but it is estimated that It's going to be too focused. So, the prospects for the Emmys are bleak."
Renly retracted his chin lightly, expressing his understanding, but then changed his voice, "Chris, why do I think you're gloating?"
Hearing this, Chris almost choked on his saliva and coughed violently. Renly couldn't help laughing, and Chris realized that Renly was joking, and he couldn't help clenching his fists. , "Renly, that's not funny! I'm just caring about you!" In a hurry, his Australian accent was muffled, and it was almost incomprehensible, "Like I said just now, you shouldn't choose TV dramas."
Renly just smiled and didn't respond, turned around and went back to the room, "I'm going to do laundry now, do you have anything to do?" Then Renly paused and turned back, "I mean the coat or something. , you don't throw me socks and panties."
Chris raised his hand and smashed an envelope in response, causing Renly to laugh again.
Here, there is no washing machine in their apartment. Each floor is equipped with a washing machine and a dryer. However, there are long queues of people who usually use it, so it is more convenient to go to a special laundromat. Renly then got into the habit of doing laundry in the early hours of the morning.
Renly packed up the dirty laundry from the past few days, picked up the laundry basket, walked to the door, kicked Chris in the calf, "Jean, Hulk."
Chris rolled his eyes and wanted to refute but couldn't find the right words. He could only step aside in frustration, waving his fists to watch Renly go out, and then slammed the door shut to vent his anger.
After turning back and continuing to sort out all the letters, Chris walked all the way to Renly's house and put the personal letters belonging to Renly on the table. When he was about to leave, he saw the script on the bookshelf.
The cover is navy blue with only one word, "Thor", which is concise and clear, and the atmosphere is stable.
