In small but significant number of beginning filmmakers and casting executives reconsider Hollywood's attitude to breast implants, Botox, collagen-injected lips and all forms of plastic surgery.
TV executives at Fox Broadcasting, says for example they have begun to recruit more natural looking players from Australia and the United Kingdom since more than well endowed, freakishly young looking crowd shows up for applicants in Los Angeles is suffering from too much sameness.
"I think everyone either looks like a drag queen or a stripper" said Marcia Shulman, who oversees casting for Fox scripted shows.
Independent casting directors as Mindy Marin, who worked with Jason Reitman film "Up in the Air", is a talent agent to counteract invites clients to have surgery, especially older celebrities as she argues, lose their jobs because their skin is too tense or swollen with. Said Ms. Marin: "what I want to see is real."
Also extra sheep once-over. Sande Alessi, who helped throw the films "Caribbean pirates", said she is offering to photograph actresses in their bathing suits, tell me if they can keep the photo for their audition books.
Professional courtesy? Not necessarily. Moviemakers prefer actresses with natural boobs for the costume dramas and period films. So much so that when the Walt Disney Company announced recently for extras for the new "Pirates" movie, casting call indicated that only women with real boobs need apply. By taking a photograph, Ms. Alessi said, "we need not ask, we."
Step towards a ' less is more "is operated by a series of conflicting social and technological developments, said more than a dozen film and television technicians.
Cosmetic improvements still popular, with 10 million surgical and nonsurgical procedures are performed in the United States during 2009, according to the American society for aesthetic plastic surgery. At the same time, the proliferation of HD television — as well as a curious generally trained eye – has made it easier to find a celebrity poorly sewn hairline or botched eyelid lift.
Men, is, of course, not immune to the lure of a youthful Surgeon a scalpel. But there are women, to no surprise, as the closest is to be examined.
Botox is the enemy in a post-"Avatar", 3-D infatuated Hollywood, where in possibility to crumple a mouth to a frown is as important as remembering his lines. More frightening is how young plastic surgery supporters become. In January was the actress Heidi Montag on the cover of people magazine, touting the 10 cosmetic procedures, she had a day. She is 23.
"Era" I see great since I did this to myself "has gone through," said Shawn Levy, Director and producer of "Date Night" and "night at the Museum" films. "It is seen as ridiculous. Ten years ago had actresses feeling that they had to have plastic surgery to get the part. Now, I think it works against them. Go to a casting session low. looks fake their chances "
Few in Hollywood is prepared to admit that the Chin reduction or mini eyebrow lift. (Remember when Jennifer Grey admitted to nose job, a move that some say are damaging his career?) Celebrities are more open to discuss a previous drug problems or sex addiction, because there is less concern about a confession which will damage their careers. But with so many types of cosmetic rejiggering is often painfully obvious and result difficult to fix.
Ms. Shulman, Fox met an agent recently to discuss hiring an actress who apparently had work. "What she did to his face?" Ms. Shulman said she asked the agent. "He said," nothing ". I lightly. I will just not to argue. I said, ' she is not for me then. " ”
Head shots, is no longer reliable. Ms. Marin said she sometimes checks AwfulPlasticSurgery.com, an advertising site that portrays the surgically enhanced, confirming suspicions of who edited what. When Ms. Alessi throwing "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" in 2007, she received hundreds of head shots. Some of the actresses who arrived for the audition, however, saw nothing like their photographs.
"They would have these huge puffy lips and frozen units," said she. "you say to yourself," Oh, I can't use you. ", I received not if they do a little bit of something, but it may not be obvious."
An actor can also lose a role of a Director, if the suspect surgery was performed or not. John Papsidera, a casting director for "Batman" films, said he and a Director (he declined to say which one) recently discussed whether to hire an actor in his early 20s to play a teenager, falling in love. The actress was talented and naturally beautiful. But how did the Director was his suspicions that such young, she already had breast implants.
