下一站天王天后【下一站，天王天后】

　　Hollywood is full of celebrities, but few stars. True film 1)stardom—the power to draw huge crowds on opening weekend—has belonged to an elite few for decades. Now, 2)Dwayne Johnson and a new generation of actors are 3)jostling to join the A-list ranks. Can they do it? Here are five next A-listers introduced to you.
　　
　　While Hollywood execs were desperately seeking the next leading man, this 4)scrawny kid star (Holes) was slowly maturing into the 5)Gen-Y mover of their dreams. His big film, Transformers, grossed a massive $708 million worldwide. Steven Spielberg, who executive-produced the latter, 6)took a shine to the kid, casting him in Indy 4. “He’s accessible without being soft,” says one top studio exec. “There’s a bit of an 7)edge there. I think he’s fantastic.” He’s most often compared to a young Tom Hanks, but LaBeouf has built a template closer to Cruise, lining up action 8)franchises and then injecting them with emotion. Now he just needs to prove he’s got enough 9)stamina, and good sense, to keep his career 10)ablaze without getting burned by fame or 11)sidetracked by momentary 12)lapses in judgment.
　　
　　There are few actresses that everyone in Hollywood seems to love, but right now Adams is everybody’s sweetheart. “She’s a total star,” says one top talent agent. “She’s really 13)versatile. She can do comedy or drama, studio movies or weird 14)indie. She’s got it all.” After scoring an Oscar 15)nom two years ago for her charmingly 16)offbeat supporting role in the indie Junebug, Adams has proved the range and depth of her talent, 17)tackling 18)broad comedy (Talladega Nights), upscale drama (Charlie Wilson’s War), and a main-stream family musical (Enchanted). That fairy-tale film, which earned $340 million worldwide, 19)endeared her not just to girls, but to the industry. “She has the most appealing nature,” says one producer. “If Walt Disney had not created Snow White, Amy Adams would have been that person.” Now she needs to stop sharing the screen with 20)high-wattage stars and focus on becoming one herself.
　　
　　Now that she’s the darling of the indie world, what other 21)shenanigans can she get into? Plenty, if she plays her cards right. “Ellen has a choice,” says one producer. “Will she be Meryl Streep or will she be a big [box office] star?” So far, Page hasn’t dropped any big hints as to which direction she’s leaning. What’s certain is that she’s not going to be some 22)bland 23)ingénue, 24)dolling herself up for fashion shoots or 25)trolling out her personal life for the 26)tabloids. She’s played a 27)mutant in the last X-Men movie. Most important, Juno’s success ($228 million worldwide) has made Page a 28)cult icon to a generation of young women. “Audiences are looking for authenticity, 29)verisimilitude,” says a top studio exec. “She has that.”
　　
　　Not only has this Scottish actor grabbed 30)coveted Oscar-bait roles 31)opposite Keira Knightley (Atonement) and Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland ), but his actioner Wanted, costarring Angelina Jolie, has32)cemented him as one of the few serious actors who can headline a 33)high-octane adventure. “I can see him using Matt Damon as a career model, doing both franchise pictures as well as the big Oscar pictures,” says one agent. “And he seems to want that.” McAvoy’s neither rugged nor pretty, but is able to play both, and he looks like a man rather than a boy, which makes him ideal for romantic dramas. (It also helps that he’s able to 34)warp his heavy 35)brogue into a persuasive American accent.) “He’s not a conventional leading man,” says one studio exec, but “he’s going to have a long, interesting career.”

　　Could she be the next Julie Roberts? It’s a tall order, to be sure, but of all the contenders to the throne, Hathaway may have the best shot. After being launched from obscurity as the star of Disney’s $300 million worldwide-grossing Princess Diaries films, Hathaway 36)deftly left the 37)kiddie pool behind by polishing her acting 38)chops (and, ahem, baring her chest) in the R-rated, Oscar-winning Brokeback Mountain. Then she held her own against no less than Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada. “Annie’s just going to keep going up and up,” 39)raves one studio exec. “She can do anything.”
　　
　　在好莱坞，社会名流比比皆是，巨星却寥寥无几。真正的电影巨星——能够吸引大批的观众在影片首映的周末到电影院捧场——这个称号数十年一直只属一群数十年难得一见的演艺界精英。现在，德维恩·约翰逊和新一代的演员们正努力跻身天王天后行列。他们做得到吗？下面就向大家介绍5位明日巨星。
　　
　　正当好莱坞制片人拼命地寻找着新一任男主角的时候，这位瘦削的童星（曾出演《别有洞天》）渐渐地成熟起来，成为那些制片人梦寐以求的Y世代新动力。他出演的大片《变形金刚》全世界的票房总收入达到了7.08亿美元。《变形金刚》的监制斯蒂文·斯皮尔伯格第一眼就喜欢上这小伙子，让他在《夺宝奇兵4》里面担任一角色。一位著名的制片总监说：“他平易可亲却不阴柔。这算是他的一个优势吧。我觉得他棒极了。”人们常常将他比作年轻的汤姆·汉克斯，但是拉博夫的演艺模式更加接近于汤姆·克鲁斯，他接下一部又一部动作片并往个中角色注入感情。现在，他只需要证明自己有足够的毅力和清醒的头脑，使自己的事业更加辉煌的同时又不会为名气所累，或者由于一时的判断失误而变得星途晦暗。
　　
　　鲜有女演员能够为好莱坞所有人喜爱，但是现在艾米·亚当斯却是众人的甜心。一名顶尖艺人经纪说：“她完全就是一个明星。她多才多艺，既能演喜剧片，又能演剧情片，在主流的制片厂电影或者古怪的独立电影里都能有出色的表现。她可以说是个全才。”两年前，她凭着在独立电影《六月虫》里出演一个奇特又可爱的角色获得奥斯卡最佳女配角提名，此后，通过在一系列影片里的表现，她证明了自己多才多艺且演技精湛，影片包括通俗喜剧《塔拉迪加之夜》，高品味的剧情片《查理·威尔逊的战争》和主流的家庭音乐剧《魔法奇缘》。《魔法奇缘》这部童话主题片的全球票房总收入达3.4亿美元，使她不止深得女孩们的喜爱，还成为了业界的宠儿。一名制片人说：“她浑身散发着最迷人的光彩。如果沃特·迪斯尼没有创造出白雪公主这个人物，那么艾米·亚当斯肯定就会是这么一个童话式人物。”现在，她可别再为那些耀眼巨星配戏，分享银幕舞台，而应该集中精力让自己成为巨星中的一员。
　　
　　既然她现在已是独立电影界的骄女，那她还可以涉足哪些新奇趣怪的领域呢？多着呢，她要是好好“出牌”的话。“艾伦有选择的空间，”一位制作人说，“她会成为像梅丽尔·斯特里普这类型的影星呢，还是高票房商业大片的巨星？”至今，还没有什么迹象明确显示她的发展方向。然而，可以肯定的是，她不会做那些乏味的，头脑简单的小女生，打扮得花枝招展地给时尚记者拍照或者故意暴露私生活让小报大写特写一番。在电影《X战警3》里面，她扮演一个变种人。最重要的是，她凭着《朱诺》（全球票房总收入达2.28亿美元）的成功演出，成为了新生代少女的时尚偶像。“观众追求的是真实，不矫揉造作的感觉，”一位著名的制片总监说，“她就能给人这样的感觉。”
　　
　　这位苏格兰演员不但接手了数个让人垂涎，对奥斯卡胃口的角色——分别与凯拉·奈特利（《赎罪》）和弗雷斯特·惠特克（《末代独裁》）演对手戏，他还与安吉丽娜·朱莉一起主演了动作片《通缉犯》，这部影片确立了他的定位——成为业界少数既可以领衔主演动作冒险片又能在严肃题材电影里挑大梁的演员之一。“我可以看出他是以马特·达蒙为榜样，独立电影和奥斯卡大片两不误，”一位经纪人说，“而他似乎就是想那样。” 麦克沃伊不算桀骜粗犷，也说不上清秀英俊，但是这两类角色他都能胜任，他看上去更像一个男人，而不是小男生，这使他很适合出演浪漫影片。（他虽然满口乡音，但是也能说出地道的美音，这对他也很有帮助。）“他不是传统意义上那种男主角，”一位制片总监说， 但是“他的事业将会很长久，而且充满趣味。”
　　
　　她会是下一个朱莉亚·罗伯茨吗？毫无疑问，这要求太高了，但是在所有竞逐“朱莉亚·罗伯茨接班人”宝座的选手中，海瑟薇获胜的机会也许是最大的。票房总收入达3亿美元的迪斯尼的《公主日记》使她一跃成名，之后她迅速摆脱儿童电影里的那些角色，在限制级影片、奥斯卡获奖大片《断背山》里提高演技（还有，呃，露一下胸部），独当一面。然后，她在电影《时尚女魔头》里与梅丽尔·斯特里普争相辉映。“安妮表现得越来越棒，”一位制片人一个劲地赞许道，“她无所不能。”
