Walking into this coffee house with bright windows, the strong coffee scent drifts in the air, mixed in the green onion, as if the naked eye can see the elves dancing in the sunshine. The crystal clear golden sunlight slowed down the pace of time.￥f

But in this leisurely and lazy atmosphere, Mickey, who was sitting in the corner, seemed very nervous, her broad shoulders tensed, and from time to time, she raised her head to look at the door of the cafe. Her shaking right leg, her right thumb, gnawing between her teeth and her panic-eyed gaze, revealed his true emotions at the moment, and seemed out of place with the entire cafe.

David-unger patted Mickey on the shoulder and tried to calm his nervousness, but Mickey jumped up suddenly, shook David's palm hard, and looked at David with a wide eyes wide open. The fist in his right hand had been raised reflexively, as if as long as David acted rashly, his fist would directly fall.

However, David was too used to it. He shook his head and said calmly, "Mickey, you should know that if you continue like this, you will not be able to find any job, right?" Mickey's fist was slightly closed, but he still did not let it go. "We have agreed that I will plan your job next. I said, Lancelot is your opportunity, you must seize it."

Mickey put her fist down and sat heavily into the booth, leaning her fingers with resentment, making a crackling sound, and gasping for breath, "I don't care, anyway, it's just a supporting role, an unimportant supporting role."

"A supporting role everyone is fighting for!" David noticed that his voice rose slightly, and then immediately suppressed it. "Do you know that Dwayne Johnson and Vin Diesel are fighting for this role?"

"Then let it go." Mickey shook his hand impatiently, his face full of indifferent.

David took a deep breath and knew that Mickey was not targeting Lance, not targeting "City of Sin", nor targeting him. But targeting Mickey himself. After countless ups and downs, Mickey's spirit was about to collapse. Last month, he tried to commit suicide at home. If his Chihuahua had not awakened his last sense of survival, Mickey might not be here now.

"Mickey, we've talked, haven't we?" David slowed down his tone, looked up at the door, and confirmed that the waiter had not appeared. "Listen, you are Lancelot's first choice, I can be 100% sure." The rumors about casting of "City of Sin" have only been heard one after another in the past two days. Everyone is still in the stage of exploring information, and then he received a call, "Lancelot is a treasure, believe me! What's more, this work has also received the support of the Coen brothers. Imagine! Mickey, imagine!"

Brothers Coen. This is the little help Lance uses.

While writing the script of "City of Sin", Lance made an appointment with the Coen brothers and had a deep conversation with the script. The Coen brothers' treatment of black style is unique - the "old and nowhere to rely on" who won the Oscar for the best film is a typical example. Their "black" seems simple, but it penetrates into their bones.

The two brothers were obviously very interested in Lance's magnificent blueprint of the Sin Trilogy. The stylized shooting method of "City of Sin" opened their eyes. However, they also gave Lance some advice. Works with too strong stylization of the shots are often easily overwhelming, so this puts higher requirements on the lines of the script - otherwise it would not meet Lance's expectations.

After that conversation, the name "City of Sin" spread in the circle for the first time, and the release of casting news was about to happen again.

Hearing David's words, Mickey's tight shoulder line relaxed a little, but she still didn't want to bow her head in front of David. She just turned her head stubbornly and looked out the window without saying a word.

David also knew that it was enough to stop and did not continue to speak, leaving Mickey with enough space - but there was not much time left for Mickey because Lance appeared.

Rance, wearing a navy blue collarless shirt, walked into the coffee house in the sun, as if the elf dancing happily in the air stopped. David's movements froze slightly, then raised his right hand and greeted him on his own initiative. Lance saw it immediately, raised his chin in the direction he was, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rose, stunning the time in an instant.

"Hey, sorry I'm late." Lance's voice had already arrived in front of him. David came to his senses. Then he saw Lance and Cole standing behind him. David stood up and showed politeness, but Mickey responded half a beat slower and was still sitting in his seat. Cole took a step forward and was about to start an introduction, but Lance said with a smile, "If we have no doubts about the authenticity of each other's identities, I think there is no need to introduce it."

As he said that, Lance took the initiative to sit down. At this moment, Miki finally reacted and stood up. As soon as this fell, the atmosphere around him solidified again, making it look even more awkward.

Cole turned to look at Lance, his thoughts circled in his mind, and he swallowed the words that had already reached the tip of his tongue; while David, who was standing opposite, showed a polite smile, "I have heard that Lancelot-Stralo is a straightforward person, and he finally saw it today."

The subtext is that Lance is not polite, "David Unger." David introduced himself to Cole.

"Coll Greed." Coll held David's right hand and smiled, "I hope I don't need to introduce the director's name." If you want to introduce it, it means that the actor is not ready, which is really impolite. The words of Tom Cruise sitting opposite him are a different matter, but Mickey Locke is not Tom Cruise.

Lance ignored David and Cole's brief confrontation at all, and his eyes were always focused on Mikey.

Mikey's movements seemed a little slow, but she looked very old because of the injection of synthetic alcohol. A large amount of cellulite made the muscles look extremely rough. The overdeveloped biceps made the whole person look a little clumsy. The uneven cheeks could vaguely see the traces of plastic surgery, and the receding hairline made the signs of aging unconcealed.

Mickey, standing in front of Lance, seemed a little at a loss. He looked a little nervous, angry, and a little irritable, and his eyes were swaying around without focus. After seeing Lance sit down, he turned to look at David and Cole next to him, and then sat down directly. His rough breathing seemed quite difficult.

It is hard to imagine that this is the top idol in the 1980s.

Once upon a time, when Mickey was young, his handsome appearance, chic temperament and unruly personality made the whole Hollywood cheer for it, and was regarded as the new era of James Dean. What is even more rare is that Mickey's superb acting skills surpassed Tom Hanks, who debuted at the same time. In the early days of his debut, works such as "Gate of Heaven", "Heat", "Small Restaurant", "Douyu" made countless film critics applaud, and then became a popular potential stock in the film industry because of "Love You for 9 and a half weeks".

People think that Tom Cruise is the first icon in Hollywood to have ever packed successfully, but in fact, Mickey had such an opportunity before him, but he missed it.

When his career was at its peak, Mickey began to be at a loss. His irritable temper gradually lost control. He quarreled with directors and producers and insulted other actors - including Tom Cruise, who had just risen because of "top ambitions", made enemies everywhere in Hollywood and squandered opportunities again and again.

The role of Tom Cruise in "Rain Man" was Mickey's first. Dustin Hoffman personally sent an invitation to the phone, but he was addicted to alcohol and forgot to call back; the role of Kevin Costner in "Iron-faced" and John Travolta in "Pulp novel" and "Battle Platoon" and "Silence of the Lambs"... and so on. Mickey was the first choice, but he refused them all.

When his personal life and career began to fall apart, he took on some bad junk movies for money, and after seven consecutive works lost at the box office, he decided to temporarily leave Hollywood and return to his beloved boxing ring to become a professional boxer.

In fact, he was a very outstanding boxer. In the four years from 1991 to 1995, he won many games in a row, only three games away from the lightweight championship, but he withdrew from the competition due to mental problems. In the end, he suffered severe brain damage and had to completely withdraw from the boxing world. At that time, his face had undergone four plastic surgery, reshaping his broken nose and his once handsome cheekbones. Even his ears were cut off by the doctor to repair his face, but the handsome face that once loved countless girls was gone forever.

In 1995, Mickey returned to Hollywood, but not many directors were willing to use him. He could only appear in supporting roles in some movies, and spent a long and dark trough in a daze, as if he would never see hope.

Lance tried to find the handsome traces of his former face again, but was disappointed. Obviously, these were two completely different people. However, such a Mickey was exactly the best candidate for Mickey. In the original comics, Mickey was a setting with a deformed appearance, strong muscles and a irritable temper. From this perspective, Mickey only needs to play his true character to be competent for this role.

What Lance values ​​more is that Mickey's performance has a certain foundation, and his life experience has helped a lot in playing the role of Muffer. This is why Lance locked in Mickey when he chose the first choice. But obviously, Mickey's hot temper is an irregular time bomb.

For example, this moment.

"What are you looking at? Gilly!" Mickey slammed her fists hard on the table and said gritting her teeth.
