Chapter 644 Who will act?(2/2)

But after the screenwriter became Yu Dong, things became different.

After Eisner learned that Yu Dong was willing to help write the script, he took the matter of "Pirates of the Caribbean" very seriously. It was he who took the initiative to call Jimmy first and talk about the movie.

"Does Michael Eisner also want to make some changes?" Yu Dong asked.

Jimmy shook his head: "That's not true. He just briefly told me about the situation and did not show any specific preferences. And even if he showed a preference, it has nothing to do with us. Could it be that if I tell you that someone has a preference, you

Will you listen?"

Yu Dong smiled and said: "Not necessarily. If the money is really enough, I wouldn't mind being a screenwriter who obeys advice."

Mo Yan glanced at the script in Jimmy's hand and asked, "Is this the script you wrote a few days ago, about pirates?"

These people are together every day, and they know more or less what Yu Dong writes.

"Well, Disney wanted to make a movie about pirates, so I took it," Yu Dong replied.

Jimmy handed the script in his hand to Mo Yan, "You should also take a look."

Mo Yan nodded, took the manuscript, and read it.

Others also came over, gathered around Mo Yan, and read the script with him.

Jimmy looked at Yu Dong and continued: "But there is another problem, which is the setting of Captain Jack. As the captain of the Black Pearl, is his image... too coquettish?"

Coquettish was the first word that came to Jimmy's mind after seeing the description of Jack in the script.

Yu Dong gave a very detailed description of Captain Jack's appearance, including clothes, hairstyle, makeup and even gait.

With his smoky makeup, mustache, and enchanting steps, he doesn't look like a famous pirate leader. This image is too subversive for pirates.

Regarding the evaluation of coquettishness, Yu Dong did not deny it. He asked Jimmy, "Does this image make you feel disgusted?"

"I can't say I hate it, but I don't think I particularly like it in terms of appearance alone. Of course, apart from appearance, the inner characteristics of this character are still very interesting. The character's personality is complex enough and quite special."

Yu Dong smiled and said: "Since we are not trying to create a great and upright character, it is a good thing to have some characteristics that people can remember."

"That's true." Jimmy also laughed, "If Disney doesn't want this script, we can film it ourselves. I think it's still very promising. By the way, have you thought about who should play the role of Jack?

After reading the script, I thought about it for a long time but couldn’t think of a suitable candidate. How about Matthew McConaughey? Or Brad Pitt?”

"What do you think of Johnny Depp?"

"Johnny Depp?" Jimmy pondered, and after a while, a smile broke out on his face, "Don't tell me, Depp is indeed related to this character. His costume in "Edward Scissorhands" is special enough.

, and in "Ed Wood", he is also quite enchanting."

Speaking of "Ed Wood", Yu Dong also laughed.
