Chapter 324: Classic Scene #

Half an hour later, in another dressing room, Diane Lane sat nervously in her chair, allowing the makeup artist to quickly modify her eyebrows, eyes, and hairstyle. Several staff members were spinning around her, and Eric occasionally directed the makeup artist on what to do.

This situation made Diane realize that she was really going to get the lead role in “Basic Instinct”. Although the film’s scale was a bit large and would definitely have a great impact on her future screen image, this was Eric Williams’ film. Although he did not direct the film himself and only held the title of producer, his name was listed as the screenwriter, so no one would regard this film as someone else’s work.

Thinking about the female leads who became famous through Eric’s films, Diane couldn’t help but feel excited.

“Mr. Williams, is this okay?” The stylist quickly brushed Diane’s face with powder and asked while standing up.

Eric walked up to her and carefully examined her, shaking his head, “No, make her eyebrows thicker and make her lips less sexy. I don’t want sexiness.”

“Should we make her look more masculine?” The stylist asked tentatively.

“Of course not. The female lead is a woman, but not that kind of sexy woman.”

The stylist frowned and pondered for a moment. As a top stylist in the industry, he had seen all kinds of strange requests from directors, so he didn’t feel impatient with Eric’s words. After a while, the stylist quickly started modifying Diane’s face again.

Her eyebrows became thicker, and her originally sexy upper lip was made less prominent. After finishing, the stylist looked at Eric again for confirmation.

Eric nodded slightly and then looked behind him, “Has the clothes I designed been cut out?”

“It’ll be ready in a minute,” a staff member responded.

“Faster,” Eric shouted. Then he looked at Diane and said, “Mr. Don Johnson will come later, and I need you to perform a few more scenes. You go prepare first.”

Diane carefully stood up, seeming afraid of ruining her just-completed hairstyle, and nodded, taking the few pages of dialogue handed to her by the staff member and sitting quietly on the sofa in the corner, reading through them. The surrounding people who had been noisy involuntarily lowered their voices.

“Mr. Williams, the dress is ready.” The assistant brought a white dress and showed it to Eric. “Is this okay?”

“It’s fine,” Eric took the dress and walked to the sofa, handing it to the girl in front of him, Diane Lane. “Go change, wear only this dress and try to experience Catherine Tramell’s mentality. Although your chances are high, if the effect is not good, I don’t mind replacing you.”

“No problem,” the girl nodded. Although Eric’s invitation for her to do a nude audition was a bit embarrassing, she didn’t refuse. She took the dress and walked towards the fitting room.

……

“You said you like it when a man uses his hands, right?” In the shot, Don Johnson asked aggressively.

Diane Lane’s face was calm with a faintly confident smile as she calmly retorted, “No, I said I like it when Johnny uses his hands. I won’t set rules, Nick. I like to go with the flow.”

“You killed Mr. Boz, didn’t you?” An assistant recited the lines.

Diane leaned forward, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice. “I’m not stupid enough to kill someone using the same method as my character in the book and then announce myself as the killer. I’m not that dumb.”

“We know you’re not that dumb, maybe that’s your way of getting away with it?”

“Using a book as an excuse,” Don Johnson said again.

Diane Lane immediately smiled at Don Johnson, “Of course, that’s a good idea.” After she finished, she quickly became serious again, as if the previous words were just a joke. She looked at the people in front of her and said, “I’ve already said it, I didn’t kill anyone.”

“Did you do drugs with Mr. Boz?”

“Of course.”

“What kind?”

“Cocaine. Nick, have you ever tried cocaine?” Diane Lane looked at Don Johnson again, teasingly.

After she finished, the scene was quiet for a moment. The most talked-about scene in “Basic Instinct” appeared in the audition room. Diane Lane was obviously in the zone, unconsciously doing a leg-crossing movement as she had just read the script. Jeffrey, who was sitting opposite her, picked up the water cup in front of him and sprayed the water out when he saw the “scenery” in front of him.

This interruption caused Diane Lane to also break out of the scene, covering her skirt with her hand, but there was not much shyness in her expression. Instead, she boldly looked at Eric sitting opposite her. Eric cleared his throat twice, and Diane Lane could completely let go. This made him very satisfied. Therefore, Eric soon said, “Very good, congratulations, Ms. Diane Lane, you have passed the audition.”

“Thank you for your recognition, Mr. Williams. I will definitely work hard,” said the young woman as she stood up, somewhat reservedly.

Eric nodded, then turned to Roger Spottiswoode and said, “Now that the lead actress has been confirmed, I will head to New York tomorrow. I will leave this movie entirely in your and Jeffrey’s hands. The normal shooting schedule for this movie is three months, but I hope you can compress the production period to two months because the movie will be released three months later and we need to reserve one month for promotion.”

“I’ll do my best,” Roger Spottiswoode nodded.

“I don’t want to hear the word ’try.’ I need a 100% guarantee that this movie will be finished on time. The budget for this movie can be appropriately increased. What I need is timely completion and guaranteed quality,” Eric said.

Roger Spottiswoode felt pressure, but he thought about how if he didn’t finish “Basic Instinct,” Eric would make him finish “Ghost” first, which was said to require special effects, while “Basic Instinct” did not. He had been in Hollywood for so many years, he couldn’t be worse than a young man.

“I promise I will finish on time,” Roger Spottiswoode didn’t hesitate for long and quickly said.

Eric nodded, reached out his hand and shook hands with Roger Spottiswoode, saying, “This is also an unavoidable matter, Roger. You know, I wasted a few months at the beginning of the year and had to come back to show some people that they couldn’t stop me in the slightest. So, if you can finish this movie, we will definitely be able to continue working together in the future.”
