10月18日,经典万圣节电影《女巫也疯狂》(Hocus Pocus)的主要演员在康涅狄格州哈特福德举行的90年代流行文化展“90s Con”上重聚。
导演 Kenny Ortega 透露,他与剧组已有20多年未曾重聚,并爆出一桩选角秘闻:当年曾考虑由莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥出演男主角 Max Dennison——那个意外复活三位女巫的少年。角色最终归属 Omri Katz,Ortega 称“这个年轻人奉献了惊人的表演”。Katz 笑言,自己当年与迪卡普里奥常在试镜中竞争,“这是我千分之一的胜利”。出席重聚的还包括 Jason Marsden、Vinessa Shaw、Thora Birch 等演员,他们回忆了与 Bette Midler、Sarah Jessica Parker、Kathy Najimy 三位“桑德森姐妹”合作的趣事。该片已成为万圣节档的常青经典。(GSM 据 USA Today 报道)
'Hocus Pocus' Cast Reunites in Hartford; Director Says DiCaprio Was Eyed for Lead Role
The principal cast of the Halloween classic Hocus Pocus reunited on Oct. 18 at 90s Con, a 1990s pop-culture convention in Hartford, Connecticut.
Director Kenny Ortega said he had not reunited with the cast in more than 20 years, and shared a casting story: Leonardo DiCaprio was once considered for the lead role of Max Dennison, the teenager who accidentally resurrects three witches. The part went to Omri Katz, who, Ortega said, 'gave an amazing performance.' Katz joked that he and DiCaprio often competed at auditions and called it 'my one-in-a-thousand win.' Jason Marsden, Vinessa Shaw and Thora Birch also attended, recalling working with Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy — the Sanderson sisters. (GSM, via USA Today)
