King of Hollywood Chapter 262: New movie
"Why, is there any problem?" Adrian casually dressed in a cap and looked at Blanchett with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to pick me up." Blanchett looked at him curiously.
"It's really sad," Adrian suddenly showed a look of being hurt, "I specifically said it on the phone."
"Really?" Blanchett was a little stunned. After a long flight for several hours, she was still asleep on the plane, and she couldn't remember what she said on the previous phone call.
"Don't care about this, let's talk while walking." Adrian said to come to her, and the gentleman took the suitcase in her hand, and then made a please gesture.
Blanchet smiled slightly and walked out with him. After putting the luggage in the back compartment and sitting in the car, she asked again: "Why are you dressed like this, Ed?"
"For unnecessary trouble." Adrian smiled and told the driver Glover to drive.
"Trouble not necessary?" Blanchett was puzzled.
“Today’s airport is very lively. Just now, the Baldwin and his wife entered the boarding gate after the reporters chased them. If they were seen by them, although there were no major problems, they had to be in trouble.” Adrian explained.
Blanchett suddenly nodded, apparently remembering his scandals, somehow her eyes suddenly became strange. Adrian shrugs indifferently and asks reminder: "Oh, where should we go?"
"Oh, sorry, please send me to the Merri Hotel on Brandon Avenue." Blanchett said to the driver.
"Merri Hotel on Brandon Avenue? A nice place," Adrian recalled with his chin recalled. "Next to Markens Street, transportation, shopping, and sightseeing are very convenient, and the service is thoughtful and the price is moderate. Your vision is very good."
"Thank you, your memory is also very good, Ed." Blanchett said immediately, and the two laughed together.
In this conversation, the car quickly arrived at the destination. Adrian sent Blanchett into the room and then left.
"Flying for a few hours, you must be very tired. Let's take a rest early. We will contact you again in a few days, just a few days before the film is ready." Adrian said.
"Preparation completed? Shouldn't it be the first audition?" Blanchett asked in surprise.
"No need," Adrian shrugged. "According to those we talked on the phone, about the plot and the heroine, I can determine you are the most suitable, Cate."
"You... do you really think so?" Blanchett looked at him a little overwhelmed.
"Of course," Adrian smiled, and naturally reached over the hair of her temples, "I can't be wrong without looking."
"You seem to say this every time." Blanchett's lips moved and he seemed to want to laugh. Adrian didn't speak anymore. After politely owing, he turned around and left, but then he thought of something. Turned around: "Oh, Cate, my new movie will premiere in a few days, would you like to participate?"
"The premiere of the new movie?" Blanchett showed a hesitant look, "It doesn't seem appropriate?"
"Nothing, just as a party, let's say the actor and the director will both participate, and you just happened to exchange one or two at the premiere, didn't you?" Adrian laughed, "That's it."
After coming out of the hotel, Adrian got into his car and told the driver to return to the villa, then he leaned on the seat and took a long breath. Very well, Blanchett had come to Hollywood as soon as she came That’s all, here is his site.
As soon as his thoughts changed, his attention shifted to the upcoming "This Killer Is Not Too Cold". The movie was supposed to be released in early January, but because the company’s resources were concentrated on "The Piano" ", "Philadelphia Story" and "Schindler's List", so the promotion is not satisfactory.
The reporters only know that Director Miracle has a new work, but they don’t pay much attention to this new work-this “too much” is relative to the films in Schindler’s List, After all, those three movies have their own gimmicks, such as female directors such as homosexuality and the Jewish Holocaust. Of course, "This killer is not too cold" is also there, and the relationship between milo and little loli is the best gimmick, but the problem is that unless it is a sign like "Lolita", it is about describing adults and minors. Feelings, oh, it should be said that it is a work of abnormal love, if other film and television works are involved, it will definitely be resisted.
Luke Besson would have fallen in the United States in the first place and this was not unrelated to this, and it is for this reason that Adrian also deliberately played down this feeling when copying, and behaved more plausibly. Propaganda with this gimmick, isn't it equivalent to throwing a stone at your own feet?
A lot of blockbuster films released in the Christmas-New Year file still occupy the major theaters, so it is not a big deal to push it in the past, anyway, in the period from mid-January to the end of February, although Not as hot as the Christmas-New Year file, but it's not bad, many romantic comedy movies are selected for release on February 14, such as "No Reservations".
It doesn't matter, as long as the story is good, the audience will like it. Adrian looked out of the window with such thought, and then raised the corner of his mouth when thinking of something.
===============================
"Speaking of it, you are so beautiful tonight." Adrian withdrew his gaze out of the car window and put his eyes on the girl in front of him, smiling so as not to hide his appreciation.
"Do you really think so?" Natalie, who was sitting opposite him, curled up her lips. She wore a brown long-sleeved vest and two skirts under her. Slender legs were exposed, feet It is a pair of flat shoes that are similar to the color of the clothes. It also has a darker bud cap, and straightened hair hangs from both sides. It is quite a literary style and very temperamental.
"Of course, do you think I will tell lies?" Adrian smiled slightly, "Although we have kept in touch through letters, I really did not expect that, but within a few months, you have become more than before Beautiful and cute."
"Thank you for your compliment, but...how does this sound strange?" Natalie frowned slightly, but she soon thought of something with a blush, and turned her head to the side uneasy. Going, at the same time grinding his teeth and secretly glancing at Adrian with a mixture of embarrassing, embarrassing, dissatisfied eyes.
"I can’t wait to see you appear in front of the reporter, they will certainly be amazed." Adrian did not continue, but changed the topic of exclamation,
Probably because the car was relatively dim, and the street lights flashed from time to time, so that he did not see her clearly. So the little girl decided to close her mouth and stop talking, but unexpectedly, Adrian said again: "I'm glad you can come to Los Angeles to attend the premiere, Natalie."
"No way, someone made dozens of calls to my house. If he didn't agree, maybe he would rush to my house to kidnap me." Natalie suddenly rolled her eyes angrily.
"Oh, this is a good idea, why didn't I think of it?" Adrian slap in a sudden realization. "If I flew directly to your house at that time, I wouldn't have to make so many calls."
Natalie couldn't help rolling her eyes again, that looks pretty cute. In this weird atmosphere, the RV came to the outside of the premiere theater. The Adrian got off first, and then Natalie, the opposite of the gentleman, reached out.
As soon as the little girl got out of the car, she didn’t stand still, and countless flashes rang loudly. Although she was mentally prepared, she was taken off by the battle, and a stagger almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Adrian standing behind her timely and concealed hand stretched out on her small waist, allowing her to maintain a balance without embarrassing.
Nataly, who is good at judging the situation, did not look up cleverly, but secretly shook the hand of Adrian to express her gratitude.
"Mr. Adrian, what made you choose a hot action movie for your new work?"
"Mr. Adrian, the audience who participated in the screening before thought that some of the points in your new work are too unbearable. What do you think of this problem?"
"Mr. Adrian, does this movie mean that you are about to completely switch to commercial filmmaking?"
The voices of the reporters rang loudly, and in the face of these guys who wanted to hold him and pry his head away to see what was inside, Adrian kept smiling, but did not answer a question. , But Jean, who will walk in front of his RV and get off at the same time, caught him and poses with Natalie for the reporter to take pictures.
"Don't you plan to say something, Mr. Adrian?" After a few minutes of shooting like this, I saw that Adrian and others were going to the theater, and a reporter yelled.
"Say a few words?" Adrian raised his head and thought about it, "Well, then I would like to introduce again, this is Jean Reno, someone who knows French cinema should have an impression on him, the year before last in Cannes I met him there during the festival and found out that he was very suitable for the actor of the movie I was contemplating. As early as that time, we had already made an agreement. It turned out that my judgment was correct , His performance is very exciting."
He said that he looked at Natalie next to him: "And this is the heroine Natalie-Miss Portman"
Some things still follow the original track. For example, Natalie changed her surname in order to prevent it from affecting her family life, and she still used her grandmother’s surname "Portman" as the one in the movie circle. The name, so Natalie Hlag officially became Natalie Portman.
"Thank God, I gave her the opportunity to audition for the second time. If there is no her, this movie will be at least half lost. She is the smartest, most mature and acting girl of the same age I have ever seen." Adrian said this, without stinging on his praise, Natalie put her hands behind her back, smiling and letting reporters take pictures.
"Okay, let’s do it. If you have any questions, please say it after the movie ends." Seeing the reporters still a little unwilling, Adrian said so again, and then took Renault and Natalie into the theater.
"Although this is my first time attending the premiere in the United States, I would say that American journalists understand the rules a little bit more than French ones." Renault sighed while walking.
"Don’t think that American reporters will not chase after entanglement and will not put the microphone in your mouth, but we walked fast and did not give them reaction time." Adrian said teasingly, "If you stay a few more Minutes, you will know that they are no more gentlemen than their British counterparts."
"This is, the British journalists, or the tabloid journalists in the UK, are probably the craziest guys in the world," Reynolds said, shaking his head, and then became angered again, "French journalists probably learned from them too. , Or those guys are just English journalists who speak French."
"Okay, let," Adrian slapped him on the shoulder with a smile, "Entertainment reporters all over the world look the same."
Then he turned his head to look at Natalie on the other side, the little girl looked at the front with wide eyes, almost subconsciously walking with him, breathing a little short of breath, the excitement on his face seemed to be still Aftertaste the taste just now.
"How do you feel, Nada." Adrian asked after a chuckle.
"Well...great, being watched, being chased, as if...as long as you wave your hand...they will cheer loudly around you..." Natalie murmured, suddenly embarrassed Hold her face: "Sorry, I seem to be a little bit sick."
"Don't care, Nada," Adrian deliberately trailed Renault by two places, and after walking side by side with Natalie, she stretched out her hand and held her shoulder. "Everyone will be excited when facing this situation for the first time. Did you know that when you were facing the reporters just now, you were very calm and appropriate, and no one did better than you."
"Really?" Natalie looked up. "Am I doing well?"
"Of course," Adrian laughed. Although he wanted to touch the little girl's smooth face, he finally suppressed himself, but just pressed her head, "You are excellent, Natal. Based on this, I know that you are fully qualified for their pursuit and cheers. And I am absolutely sure that in the future, you will get much more pursuits and cheers than today, and now it is just the beginning."
"Oh, it's really exciting words, but how to listen is more like a lover comforting a lover than a director encouraging his own actor." Renault, who walked in front, turned back and teased.
"Hey, let" Adrian screamed in a bad tone.
"Oh, sorry, my fault." The awakened Renault quickly raised his hand and turned his head to stop talking.
"It's okay, I'm just kidding." Natalie shrugged and looked very generous, but the blush and annoyed look flashed from her face a few seconds ago were seen by Adrian.
A group of people finally came to the front hall of the theater. At this moment, there are already a lot of people standing here, chatting with drinks or empty-handed. Adrian soon separated from Natalie and Renault. Although he would like to stay with Natalie for a while, he still has his own things to do, and some things need not be rushed.
"Hey, how are you talking?" He then came to a small circle of two men and a woman.
"Nice to meet you, Ed." Keanu Reeves first came up to shake his hand, with a warm smile on his face. The reason why he is so enthusiastic is because he and Ruifan Phoenix are in Filming "Uninhibited Sky" became a good friend, Adrian saved Rui Fan, and naturally won his favor.
"You are finally here, Ed, we just talked about you." The second one who shook hands with him was director Jan De Bonte, who also had a smile, although he didn't want Reeves to be too enthusiastic. But also affectionate. You have to know that Adrian specifically found him and asked him to direct "Twister". He didn't start to be a director long before. One production hasn't been done yet. He is selling himself everywhere. The world suddenly dropped such a big piece of pie, which is naturally right. Adrian is grateful.
"Yeah, I heard a lot of stories about you from them that I have never heard before." The third nature is Cate? Blanchett, wearing a decent turtleneck sweater and a jacket On the hand, below is the cotton skirt to the knee, black warm leggings pants and a pair of high-heeled leather boots, dignified and at the same time with a little sexy.
"You're here again, Keanu." Adrian said, looking at Reeves a little annoyed.
"Is there any problem? Didn't you save Ruifan? Without you, Ruifan might not be in this world anymore. Isn't that the case? Besides, Jane and Cate are not outsiders, and telling them is not a big deal. Things, isn't it?" Levi's several interrogative sentences made Bont and Blanchett laugh.
"Okay okay~IndoMTL.com~ Where did you guys talk?" Adrian shook his head irritably and then changed the subject.
"Some topics about the scene," said the director of the Bent interface. "It is a wonderful thing to limit the main scene to a bus. It pays attention to the blue sky and white clouds outside the carriage, the scenery is beautiful and pleasant, but the inside of the carriage is in crisis. The shadows hang over each passenger’s head, and setting the crime scene on this bus that can be accessed at any time in daily life makes people feel more realistic and heavy.”
"Very good, which proves that I chose you to direct is a completely correct decision." Adrian laughed, "I hope you do not hate me because I did not let you rest well."
The film that invited Blanchett to star in the heroine was "Speed" that made Reeves famous. As early as September last year, Bosworth Films received the script of this film, Adrian weekly Everyone will examine the script received by the company, and naturally know the value of the script, so he immediately decided to buy the film.
But there was a question immediately, who should the heroine choose? Adrian has no interest in Sandra Bullock, so he will pass it. Such a movie should first consider its own woman, but it seems that only Julia is more appropriate.
