The two joked a little, and Evan-Bell sat opposite again, and Blake-Lively suddenly showed an angry look, and began to straighten his slightly messy hair—Evan-Bell just now When he left, he rubbed her head fiercely, and her hair was all messed up, "Didn't you say you've made an appointment with someone else for a while, what do you want me to do?"

Evan-Bell shrugged indifferently, "Don't you always go to the bathroom to touch up your makeup? I'm making an honest excuse for you." In one sentence, Blake Lively was helpless.

Blake Lively gritted his teeth angrily, then picked up the script in front of him angrily and began to read, but her expression made Evan Bell, who was sitting opposite, smile even happier. Coffee time has also become more comfortable.

In fact, letting Blake Lively read the script is just to give her a basic understanding. The real job of reading the script is to take it back and do it. A script with four or five hundred pages cannot be read so quickly. complete. After Blake Lively had a general idea, Evan Bell also began to explain the role.

"I want you to play the role of Natalie, a rookie who has just graduated from college," Evan Bell slowed down, Blake Lively was still reading the script, but most of the time All the energy was put on Evan Bell's words, "Since I saw the original book, your image has actually appeared in my mind, although this is an adaptation of the script, but the character is tailor-made for you.

Blake Lively raised his head, instead of joking, he looked at Evan Bell with a serious expression, "How do you say?"

"The role of Natalie has the characteristics of most young people of the new generation. She is energetic and thoughtful. She lives in the Internet age and is dependent on the Internet. Therefore, she is very concerned about the introduction of the online video conference system to make layoffs standardized. I agree." Evan Bell met Blake Lively's gaze, no matter how the two get along in private, focus is absolutely essential in the work process, "The existence of the Internet can reduce the number of layoffs in the company. It’s really a good proposition for the 21st century where time is money.”

Blake Lively nodded involuntarily. In the script, the male protagonist Ryan is a middle-aged man over forty years old, in other words, a man born in the 1960s. This generation still attaches great importance to interpersonal relationships. In the 1980s, there was no Internet at all, and telephone calls were limited to landlines, so face-to-face conversation was their way of life. The advancement of the Internet era has transformed the entire society, but it is difficult to completely change some lifestyles, in short, the generation gap. At this point, Ryan's and Natalie's thoughts are bound to be different.

From this one, many details were sketched in Blake Lively's mind. Natalie and Ryan are bound to have many conflicts in their work. This is a conflict of ideas, or between sticking to old ideas and opening up new fields. conflict between. Well, this puts forward a lot of demands on Blake Lively's acting skills. She must reflect Natalie's youth, drive, and wisdom, otherwise there is no way to confront Ryan. Of course, Blake Lively believes that this is not the end, and Evan Bell's exploration of the role cannot be limited to this. really……

"But at the same time, Natalie is just a newcomer in the workplace. Do you know what it means to be a newcomer in the workplace?" Evan Bell went on to say, "This means that in the workplace, she knows very little. For such a rookie, the sophistication that the older generation values ​​can often make her overwhelmed; at the same time, the new ideas she wants to promote will make Ryan lose his job. This conflict makes the relationship between the two people change. It was very difficult.”

This is to be expected.

Later, Evan-Bell continued to add, "In addition, Natalie and Ryan also have essential differences in their thinking. Although Natalie is a young man, she still attaches great importance to interpersonal relationships. In other words, she is soft-hearted. She will attach importance to family and friendship, and she is still full of longing for love. Therefore, in layoffs, her soft-hearted will become a point of attack. At the same time, her and Ryan's thoughts Quite the opposite."

Although Blake Lively didn't read many scripts, she could imagine what it would be like for a man like Ryan who has persisted in layoffs for many years. He has no family, no friends, and no lover. Even if love comes, Ryan has no courage. go grab it. Therefore, in addition to the work conflict, Natalie and Ryan have an especially intense collision of ideas in their usual contact.

In this way, the character of Natalie is actually the opposite of Ryan. The conflict between them can be said to be the collision between two generations or two different types of people - and Ryan With Alex is the gradual change of fellow travelers, which is another line. Therefore, Natalie shoulders a very important weight and is the catalyst for the development of the entire plot.

Blake Lively finally understood why Evan-Bell said that this role was tailor-made for her: just after graduation, a newcomer to the society, energetic and courageous, but at the same time emphasizing feelings and leading to soft-hearted... These factors are all It's Blake Lively's own personality.

On the other hand, the sense of conflict, contradiction and layering in the role of Natalie is another huge challenge for Blake Lively. This challenge can be said to be the most difficult for Blake Lively since he became an actor. A tough proposition.

From "Mysterious Skin" to "Summer of Jeans," to "No Country for Old Men" and "Pippa-Lee's Private Life," and the just-concluded "Sherlock Holmes" and "The Thief in the City." Among these roles, the biggest challenges for Blake Lively are "Mysterious Skin" and "No Country for Old Men," but in these two works, there is not much room for Blake Lively's role to play. In other words, a supporting role in a supporting role. Even so, Blake Lively still tasted the joy of acting, and began to try to move to a higher level of acting.

Natalie's challenge in "In the Clouds" is rich in layers, prominent in contradictions, vivid in image, and occupies a very important position in the entire script. Although she is still positioned as a supporting actress, she still makes Blake Lively He is full of energy, and even some can't wait to enter the studio to experience the thrill of meeting the challenge.

"Evan, did you do it on purpose?" Blake Lively said to Evan Bell, squinting. Evan Bell showed a puzzled expression, and Blake Lively continued, "You deliberately created such a good character for me, and then you told me to read the script and let me make a decision. ,right?"

Evan Bell continued to open his eyes and pretend to be innocent. Blake Lively was about to flip the table and yell "shameful for being cute", but looking at Evan Bell's puzzled expression, he couldn't speak, and just wanted to pinch him hard, so, Blake Lively did just that, instantly making Evan Bell stiff, and Blake Lively laughed contentedly.

"Since you've said it all, this role is made for me, how could I refuse, right?" Blake Lively was actually cheering in his heart, shouting "I want to play, I want to play, "But on his face, he still looks like he's taking advantage and being a good boy.

Evan Yibel grinned, "Hmph, there are so many people who want to appear in my work, even if you don't have time, I can find someone else."

This time, it was Blake Lively's turn. The proud expression on her face immediately froze, and she looked at Evan Bell in astonishment. This time Evan Bell smiled triumphantly, raised his hand, and pinched Blake Lively's cheek, "Then it depends on your performance, if I'm satisfied, I'll give you this role It's not impossible."

Blake Lively immediately showed a flattering smile, which reminded Evan Bell of the cute puppy who pleases his master.

After the two of them made a joke, Evan Bell returned to his serious appearance. Speaking of you just finished filming, and then entered another crew, does it matter? "

From one crew to another, from one character to another, this is actually no different from split personality, especially for those actors with finely crafted acting skills, it is more difficult. Otherwise, Meryl Streep, who is known as the old drama bone, would not have left a crew, and would need to rest for a while, of course, spending time with her family is also part of the reason.

Blake Lively was also a little worried, but excitement prevailed, "Don't worry, in fact, the role of 'robber in the city' doesn't have such a profound connotation." Having said that, she still thought about it and suppressed herself. Excited, "Don't worry, I will read the script from today." Blake Lively also knows that he still needs long-term observation in terms of acting skills, and he must guard against arrogance and impatience.

Thinking of Evan Bell's strictness on the set, Blyge Lively began to worry about his performance on the one hand, but on the other hand, he was also excited that he could be directed by Evan Bell again. Evan Bell looked at Blake Lively, who was always sunny and rainy, and couldn't help but smile.

It was at this moment that Charlize Theron walked into the coffee shop. She stood not far from the table, stopped, adjusted her breathing a little, and then walked over.
