Chapter 598 - 596: Film Emperor, Will You Do Kissing Scenes? (Part 1)
"President Night, if possible, I hope you can step in and ask Actor Dunn to play the male lead in ’Palace Locking City.’"..." Eva Nightingale didn’t expect Director Liu to be so straightforward and get straight to the point.
"President Night. You know, Actor Dunn has good looks, and he’s worked with numerous leading actresses. He’s been in the entertainment industry for many years, and his acting skills are top-notch. Most importantly, he fits the character for the male lead in ’Palace Locking City.’" Liu Yi has an excellent eye for actors.
Every actor he chooses is sure to become a hit.
Brett Dunn is already very popular, and he excels in both acting and looks...
This period drama, since it takes place in the imperial household, requires the male lead to have a complex romantic life and possess that charming allure and charisma.
If the male lead is not chosen well, the entire drama could be a flop.
Moreover, this drama has many kissing scenes.
In Brett Dunn’s previous works, there were also many similar kissing and intimate scenes, and all the projects he acted in became box office hits.
His fans have always been passionate.
If ’Palace Locking City’ could get him to star, it wouldn’t just have a shot at major success; it would be one step closer to being a hit.
"I..." Eva Nightingale naturally understood that Liu Yi wanted the best for this drama. After all, the investment, the entire production, was a meticulous preparation by everyone... every part was the result of everyone’s hard work, and everyone hopes the drama will succeed.
Eva Nightingale naturally understood.
So, she hesitated for a moment: "I’ll go ask, but I don’t know if he’ll agree to come back."
Because she had worked with Brett Dunn before.
Although not much, Eva still knew him and thought he was quite easy to get along with; they had even walked the red carpet together before.
It’s just unclear why, when he was so popular, he suddenly retired; could it be because ’Love You to the End of Time’ couldn’t be filmed?
"President Night, since you’ve worked with Actor Dunn before, if you reach out, he might give you some face." Liu Yi also understood the previous circumstances; Eva Nightingale and Brett Dunn had some interactions, so Liu Yi believed in their friendship somewhat.
However, Liu Yi indeed couldn’t be certain if Brett Dunn would come back.
For now, it seems we can only wait for a few days, invite Brett Dunn out, and confirm him in the male lead role before we can start production.
"Director Liu, just call me Eva Nightingale." Eva chuckled. In the past, in the entertainment circle, Liu Yi had also helped her.
But after she retired, they hadn’t met for some time, and she didn’t expect their next meeting to be under such circumstances...
Moreover, with Liu Yi repeatedly calling her "President Night," Eva Nightingale felt a bit embarrassed.
"Director Liu, we’re all old friends here; just call me by my name from now on."
"This..." Liu Yi was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Okay, I’ll call you Eva." Although they didn’t contact each other often, it didn’t seem unfamiliar this way.
Indeed, Liu Yi had heard about Eva Nightingale’s past events, and her scandals were once quite the talk of the town.
Liu Yi initially thought that Eva Nightingale’s retirement was because she had a flash marriage with some rich heir...
Turns out, he guessed about seventy to eighty percent correctly. There were always rumors about Eva Nightingale and the Crown Prince, the current President.
The Sovereign Empire and the surrounding countries had different systems. Here, the President was entirely authoritarian, almost comparable to an emperor.
And that man was an unbeatable hero, feared by many, and pursued by throngs...
