I’m in Hollywood

Chapter 97: Inescapable hurdles

However, Hanks also knows the reason why Cruise is so cautious. The other party has always followed the idol route. To put it bluntly, it is to rely on his face to eat. If suddenly appeared on the screen in the image of a woman, it is indeed likely to cause some fans to be unhappy.

Eric did not immediately answer Tom Cruise's request, but instead asked: Cruise, if I remember correctly, you should be twenty-seven years old now?

Tom Cruise nodded, showing off in his tone: I started making movies when I was sixteen, when I was younger than you. It's been almost ten years now.

As a teenager who came out of a low-level single-parent family, without any background help, with his own diligence and hard work, he has created his own piece of heaven in Hollywood in ten years. Cruise has the capital to show off. .

Then, Cruise, every actor needs transformation, especially those who take the idol route. Although Hollywood actors have a longer shelf life than actresses, they don't need to expand their acting career after the age of 30. , to develop into other types of films. But one day this situation will come, so I think this opportunity can be regarded as an attempt for you.

Cruise retorted: Eric, there are many ways to try, and you don't have to play a woman. In fact, I have already considered what you just said, and my agent has recommended some genre films to me.

Eric shook his head unhurriedly and said: It's the same as nothing has changed, Cruise, many of the movies you starred in before were literary and artistic, but the Oscars didn't even give a single nomination. The reason is that even though those movies are great, your screen image hasn't changed much. Think about it from this perspective, you've been out for ten years, and you're still empty-handed at the Oscars, don't you want to get the Academy Do you approve? I think if you play this role well, plus the small sacrifice of being a comeback, the Academy will at least give you a nomination for Best Actor.

In the previous life, Andy was awarded the title of Emperor at the Hong Kong Film Awards for the first time by virtue of the movie Dark War, fulfilling his long-cherished wish. In addition to Andy's own strength in that result, the bold cross-talk that appeared for the first time in the movie also played an important role.

Oscar is a hurdle that every Hollywood member cannot get around. As long as you are a member of Hollywood, it is impossible to be indifferent to Oscar. Especially for actors, in order to be recognized by the Oscars, taking off Lulu is the lightest, and self-destructing images are more commonplace. Whether it is a mental illness or a murderer, as long as it is possible to win an award, then one word, act! Charlize Theron, the beauty of the previous life, did everything possible to gain weight and shave her eyebrows for the sake of the actress. Poor Xiao Li even made a paragraph for Oscar, 'You-fat, I-fat! ', which shattered the perfect Titanic impression in the hearts of fans.

Sure enough, after Eric finished speaking, Cruise finally stopped rejecting directly, but fell into a brief silence. How could he not know what his problem was, but he was unwilling to admit it and dare not change it.

The little people who climbed up from the bottom are more afraid of failure than those actors with rich backgrounds and gorgeous backgrounds, and no one will want to go back to the life of the past. The fear of falling into the dust again almost made Cruise forget that, with his current status in Hollywood, he was qualified to suffer failure.

But the temptation of Oscar is huge. Cruise has been in the Hollywood circle for ten years. If he can't even understand the meaning of Oscar in Hollywood, it will be impossible to achieve today's achievements.

Eric keenly caught Cruise's shaking,

He didn't miss the opportunity to add fuel to the flames: Cruise, the character Andy, in my opinion, is a more tragic character than the Count of Monte Cristo, he has only a few weeks left to live, and in order to avenge his father, he desperately and Sean Playing a seventy-two hour thrilling game, a little carelessness can lead to complete failure. In this case, the audience will pay more attention to Andy's final fate. I arranged the reverse sequence to advance the story. The development of the film is not deliberately dropping the actor's image to amuse the audience as in the vulgar comedy, this is just a very serious performance. I think, as long as you are really a fan of yours, you will definitely understand.

There was a full two minutes of silence. Perhaps Eric's rhetoric played a role, or Oscar's temptation overcame the concerns in his heart. Finally Cruise nodded slightly.

After this matter was resolved, the atmosphere in the conference room was much more relaxed.

Both Cruise and Hanks began to express their views on some details in the script. Hanks felt that Sean's character in the script was a little vague, and why he was like the Interpol who liked him. As the female supervisor said, if you don't pick up girls or go to nightclubs, even if you are a workaholic, you still need to start a family and start a business, right? And why, as an almighty police elite, he was assigned to a small police station.

Because of the tight time, Eric took only one day to drive out the script of Dark War, basically according to the story template in memory, without much modification. Eric has also considered some bugs proposed by Cruise and Hanks, but he has not had time to modify them.

Although Cruise always used an arrogant tone like he was pointing at his younger generation, Hanks liked to grasp the details and get to the bottom of the question, leaving Eric speechless. Eric still patiently discussed with the two actors. After all, with the participation of these two actors who have participated in many Hollywood hit movies, Eric not only saved a lot of energy, but also ensured that the script was more suitable for Hollywood. The rhythm of the movie.

Hey, Jonny, you can't read it wrong, it's been almost four hours, why haven't you seen Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks come out?

After squatting outside the Firefly office building for nearly four hours, Kent, the paparazzi from The Hollywood Information, finally came to the convenience store and asked in a questioning tone. Although the paparazzi can stay in front of a star's house for a day and a night for the sake of news, but that is only when they have a clear goal.

Now, there is absolutely no shadow of the two superstars, and they really can't think of any reason for Cruise and Hanks to stay at the firefly all morning, so it is inevitable to have doubts.

No, no, Mr. Reporter, I promise I'm not mistaken, look at the two commercial vehicles over there, the one on the left is Tom Cruise's and the one on the right is Tom Hanks. It's almost noon , they'll definitely be out for lunch.

Okay, Kent fiddled with the camera on his chest and said, I hope you read it right, so everyone is happy. Otherwise, the $700 will still be returned.

Jonny subconsciously covered his pocket and swore again.

Then I'll wait a little longer. Is there a soda, give me a bottle?

Yes, Jonny nodded hurriedly, and was about to get something for Kent when he saw the other three paparazzi outside the window suddenly stand up and pounce at the door of the Firefly Office Building.

Mr. Reporter, have you come out, do you see your companions?

Kent turned his head and found that several colleagues outside the door had rushed across the road, scolded him, and hurried out the door. Although it is affiliated with the same tabloid, the editor-in-chief will still select the best photos for publication, and whoever takes the selected photos will get the commission.
