Hollywood, Wilshire Avenue.

Xu Can casually put on a shirt and jeans and rode a bicycle for a full 10 kilometers before arriving at the Sony Pictures headquarters.

As soon as I walked in, I almost bumped into a middle-aged white man with an unshaven beard.

“Hello Mark”

“Hey Xu! You’re here, and I’m about to call your agent.”

He is the director of”The Amazing Spider-Man”. He has previously filmed the romance film”500 Days with Summer” director Mark Webb.

During the previous audition, Mark Webb saw that Xu Can was Chinese and almost found an excuse to expel him. Let’s go.

Fortunately, he was patient and willing to give Xu Can a chance.

The results of the audition were unexpected, completely subverting Mark Webb’s perception, so much so that he would rather defy public opinion and insist on casting Xu Can, an Asian actor. , starring in the well-known superhero-Spider-Man!

Fortunately, Xu Can has a handsome appearance, three-dimensional facial features, and a boy-next-door look, which is very similar to Peter Parker in the comics.

I believe that the majority of comics Fans will definitely be satisfied with their casting!

“Come on, I’ll take you to say hello to the crew. Everyone is here today. Let’s start the script reading directly. It may be a little tiring.”

“no problem.”

Xu Can is not afraid of being tired. This is a film he chose himself. No matter how hard or tired he is, he will always be happy.”

“Hey, Emma, let me introduce you, this handsome Asian guy is your partner, Bright·Xu! And this beautiful girl is……”

Under the guidance of the director, Xu Can met a fair-skinned blond girl.

The most impressive thing about her is her big eyes, which look like she stepped out of the second dimension.

Emma Stone, aka”Sister Stone””,《”The Amazing Spider-Man” plays Gwen Stacy, the heroine of”La La Land”.

Xu Can is too familiar with her.

At this time, Sister Shitou was only 18 years old, and her young skin was quite supple.

“No introduction needed…Hello, Ms. Stone, I’m a fan of your movies.”

Xu Can smiled brightly and shook hands with her generously.

It can be seen that Emma Stone was surprised and a little overwhelmed at the same time.

The oriental boy in front of her made a great impression on her, but she has only starred in Two American TV series, and he was a bit player with no scenes.

He actually knew about himself?

“Hello, Mr. Bright……”

“Okay, I can Xu Can”

“Asahi… Matoi?”

“Well, you speak Chinese very well.”

Xu Can gave up correcting the pronunciation and taught her slowly in the future.

When the two newcomers interacted, director Mark Webb crossed his arms and had an aunty smile on his face.

The assistant director passed by and was a little surprised.

“Hey, Mark, what are you doing?”

“Do you feel that this scene is sweet and feels great?”

As a former romance film director, Mark Webb is very sensitive to the interaction between the male and female protagonists.

There is a chemical reaction at the first contact. He feels that the male and female protagonists have found the right person!

In the original idea, he planned to use the original Peter Parker His wife Mary Jane was the heroine.

Later, the screenwriter team talked a lot with Xu Can about the creation of”Spider-Man” and found that Spider-Man’s first love Gwen Stacy was more interesting!

With the approval of Mr. Stan Lee,

Producer Avi Arad summoned the screenwriters to revise the script overnight and changed the heroine this time to Gwen Stacy!

The 2002 version of”Spider-Man” is the most classic version, yes, but the emotional scenes are really exciting Criticized, MJ was filmed as a watery green tea.

After changing the heroine, the emotional drama became much smoother.

This is one of the rea

[Go to read the novel on the site: Novels Knights] sons why he insisted on choosing Xu Can.

Xu Can has a deeper understanding of movies than many screenwriters!

“Okay, everyone is almost here, let’s get ready to start the script reading.”

……

“《The first script reading of”Spider-Man” starts now!”

In the large conference room of Sony Pictures, director Mark Webb and a group of actors sat together.

Everyone was holding the script in their hands and their expressions were very serious.

Before the official start of shooting, the starring team read the script aloud and went through the scene, which helped to enhance the The understanding of the characters will facilitate subsequent filming.

At the same time, take the opportunity to test the actors’ performances.

The actors can also give the director a better impression, and maybe they will gain more favor.

“……On a rainy night, Aunt May held baby Parker and looked out the window, reflecting Parker’s immature and uneasy face.……”

“The scene transitioned, and Peter Parker had grown up to be a high school student… He was looking at the photo in ecstasy, but his head was hit by a basketball flying from outside the screen.……”

After director Mark Webb finished reading the voiceover, it was Xu Can’s turn to read the lines.

Xu Can has been brewing for a long time and is just about to speak!

His brain seemed to be penetrated by a spiritual light!

Wonderful electric current flows through the whole body instantly!

The first generation of”Spider-Man”》、《the Amazing Spider-Man》、《Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse》、《Marvel Spider-Man》……

Peter Parker from many works seemed to merge into Xu Can’s soul in an instant!

Xu Can closed his eyes and seemed to be able to see the memory of Peter Parker himself!

At this moment, he is possessed by Peter Parker! He is Spider-Man himself!

Emma Stone, who was sitting next to Xu Can, was a little surprised.

Why didn’t this handsome Asian guy read his lines? Was he too nervous?

She was just about to stretch out her leg to touch Xu Can to remind him, when

Xu Can finally spoke:

“Hey good morning Fletcher……”

In just a few words, Xu Can conveys the image of a bullied high school student who dares to be angry but dare not speak out.

Xu Can, who was originally tall and sunny, suddenly turned into an unconfident homeboy.

In the next few dialogues, Xu Can’s tone and expression were impeccable!

Director Marc Webb’s eyes lit up.

I didn’t expect Xu Can to get into the role so quickly!

I thought Xu Can was inexperienced and would need some time to adapt!

The script reading went smoothly

“……I think you were very brave just now”

“What?”

Sister Shitou quietly glanced at Xu Can next to her, and quickly returned to the script.

“A little silly, but very brave. You’d better go to the infirmary and get checked for a concussion.”

“Forehead……”

“May I have your name?”

“Peter…your name is Gwen, right?”

“Gwen Stacy…remember to go to the infirmary.”

Although it was a script reading, the male protagonist Xu Can and the female protagonist Emma Stone had already started to make eye contact.

Director Mark Webb saw it in his eyes and nodded silently.

It seems that the casting was indeed chosen right this time. He was hanging I felt half relieved.

The literary scenes were probably fine, but the action scenes were in the actual shooting stage.

It is said that Xu Can has learned Chinese martial arts, so his skills should be good, right?

……

“Hey Peter!”

“Gwen”

“Hahaha, sorry, I got used to calling you by your real name when I read the script just now.”

The two met for the first time and the cooperation went smoothly.

After several scenes of rivalry, Emma Stone and Xu Can made rapid progress.

“Xu, are you free later? How about a drink?”

“OK, it’s my pleasure.”
