Hollywood legendary director

On April 3, the weather was fine.

Tom Cruise drove towards West Hollywood in the agent's car.

The media reporters who had started to pile up around the entrance of the reception hall of the Paramount Headquarters Building entered through the side door and then took the elevator to the third floor.

The elevator door opened and Tom Cruise and his agent Pat Kingsley went to the fitting room.

In other words, the styling and costume collocation of the movie "Bad Guy" is quite simple. After all, it is a modern drama, and it is only necessary to design it according to the normal dress.

And Tom Cruise came here, naturally to take makeup photos and do some promotional activities before shooting.

The two pushed open the door of the fitting room, and the dazzling array of costumes immediately came into view. There were also a few wooden shelves next to them with various tattoo stickers.

"What about Director Lyman?" Agent Pat Kingsley asked a busy staff member.

"In the first room on the right inside."

Hearing this, the two walked down the passage, and then stopped in the first room on the right.

The spacious and bright floor-to-ceiling glass windows can clearly see that there are also all kinds of clothing inside, and the staff are busy coming and going.

"Lyman." Tom Cruise said hello.

Lyman sitting on the office chair, hearing the voice, also got up and said: "Tom, you are here, let's try on the clothes first, and go down to attend the opening ceremony later."

"Ok."

Because Tom Cruise’s coffee is here, his fitting room is arranged separately.

At this moment, after he entered the room, a tall and thin man followed Pat Kinsley.

The man gave a polite smile, "Hello, Mr. Tom Cruise, I am the stylist of the crew, and I will be responsible for your styling design today."

A gang undercover who is capable of running as an agent is naturally not low. When Tom Cruise, who has his hair repaired and is wearing a custom black suit, stands in front of Lehman, he is also quite the leader. A sense of momentum.

"Not bad, let's go down." Lehman said.

Nicholas Cage, Heath Ledger and others who had already confirmed the appearance of the play also followed down to the reception hall on the first floor.

......

"Can you tell us what kind of subject this is?"

"Crime genre film."

There were a lot of media reporters in the lobby. Under the coordination of the press officer dispatched by Paramount to host the interview, Lehman answered a few questions and immediately hid behind and pushed the leading actors out.

"Mr. Tom Cruise, what kind of role will you play?"

"I assure you that this will be the most challenging role in my career as an actor."

"Cage, what about you, what are you playing in the play?"

"It's a very interesting character."

"..."

They are very proficient in dealing with the media. Anyway, all kinds of tricks are avoided and the gimmick is increased.

An hour later, Lehmann winked at the press officer.The press conference before the start-up also ended.

"Clearance."

He checked his watch and found that it was already 4 pm. Lehman said to Ryan on the side: "Notice everyone to speed up. We must hurry up and finish the makeup photo. We will use it tomorrow for media promotion."

"Ok."

The reception hall, which was still being interviewed by reporters just now, was immediately arranged by the crew as a conference room.

The scene chosen for the makeup photo is very simple, it is the scene of a high-level gang meeting.

Nicholas Cage, Heath Ledger, and Tom Cruise, all in black suits, followed by a few younger brothers, walked in from the corner of the meeting room door, showing their respective character designs such as cool, cold, and cruel. The aura of a certain character will do.

There are two forces, the Heath Ledger gang representing the veteran power, the second master of the gang; the emerging third master, Nicholas Cage and his right-hand man, together fought Tom Cruise.

"Thomas, have you got the seats?"

"OK, the track is also laid out."

"James Wen, leave it to you." For this filming, Lyman didn't intend to play by himself. He stood on the side and let Wen Ziren, a newcomer joining the crew, sit behind the monitor and stare.

The actors who reappeared the makeup are also in their positions.

Everything was ready, and the first test shooting began.

In the huge conference room, there were a few older middle-aged people. In the camera, Heath Ledger took the lead, and the younger brothers behind followed into the conference room. One of the younger brothers opened the conference table. The first seat on the right...

"Crack."

Well, although I wanted to leave it to Wen Ziren to film this, so that he could absorb a little more filming experience, but seeing some mistakes, Lehman couldn't help but "intervene".

Just like when watching a movie, the bad guys always like bb to show their superiority, but they are always seized by the protagonist to complete the comeback. At this time, many viewers are eager to kick the bad guys away. Come on.Lyman was like this now, itchy in his heart, and shouted out all of a sudden.

"Jason Statham." Lehman waved at him.

"Director Lyman."

Jason Statham walked over immediately. He had a tiger head tattooed with a tattoo sticker on his right arm, matched with his big bald head, and his stature was relatively burly, which revealed a villainous temperament. .

"Are you nervous just now?"

Jason Statham's face was full of apologies.

Since the audition was over, the agent told him that he was selected, and he has always felt unreal.

As an actor, he has almost missed the theoretical golden age of actors.

He has filmed a lot of film and television dramas, and there are not no male protagonists, but since he came to Hollywood to develop, he has never gotten any chance, and occasionally he has to return to the UK to seek life.

It is pitiful, but because the British film market is not big enough, he went to Hollywood, but on the contrary, he was not as good as when he was in the UK.

As for qualifications, Hollywood does not recognize his achievements in the UK.

The starting point for him to come here is higher than that of ordinary actors.

But the gangster he played this time was the top combat power in the second master camp. It was set to firearms and was excellent in close combat. He also killed the third master played by Nicholas Cage and his right-hand man Tom- Cruise's wife.

There are a lot of roles, although I still get a lunch box, the role is generally a supporting role.

But there is a difference between a supporting role and a supporting role. Can a supporting role with an investment of several million be compared with a supporting role with an investment of close to 100 million US dollars?

He is also a director with a very good box office record like Lehman.

The opportunity came inexplicably, and even the agent asked him if he knew someone, and he trusted the relationship.

Jason Statham was naturally confused, although he also wanted to know if Kate Beckinsale had some relationship, or how could he win the role of the heroine from a large number of popular Hollywood actresses.

After all, the same British actor, he knows the current plight of his fellow villager. "Pearl Harbor" did not meet the expectations. There are still many film critics criticizing her acting skills.

It is precisely because of this that he has become more and more rare this opportunity, and he has repeatedly pondered the role, but he did not expect that he could make a mistake in taking a fixed makeup photo.

"Your walking movement just now was a bit awkward, and your expression didn't reach the effect." Lyman looked at him and asked seriously: "What is your role?"

"Member of the gang."

"Well, then you have to be more confident. This is your gang company. You are still one of the most trusted confidantes of those in power. Now you are just attending company meetings routinely. But because the boss died, you need to take Show some momentum to overwhelm other members of the gang and pave the way for your boss to take power, so you have to be a little arrogant on purpose and test the reactions of the various people, do you understand?"

"Don't change your facial expression when you first enter, with a fierce look in your eyes. When you pull the seat away, make a little more vigorous force to make a little noise."

"Director Lyman, I understand." Jason Statham nodded repeatedly.

"Go get ready and do it again."

The actors were back in place, and filming began soon.

This is a group drama, and several senior gang members who are on the verge of retirement have also found a lot of old drama bones.

JK Simmons, Hugo Weaving, Samuel Jackson.

The first two may be unfamiliar to many people, but the latter will play the role of the Jedi master in "Star Wars" and the director of SHIELD in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The scene in this scene is to show signs of unrest in the gang, because the undercover Tom Cruise arranged by the police planned a car accident in the gang's agent last night. At this time, the gang leaders were panicked and there were many speculations.

With the arrival of several heads, the atmosphere in the conference room became more subtle.

The second head is in charge of the gang’s shipping terminal, which has the most oil and water; the third head is in charge of the "entertainment industry", not only in the skin and meat business, but also in nightclubs and other places, and he has the most staff.

When the gang opened up the territory, the third master also contributed a lot, and the prestige in the gang was great.

Nicholas Cage and Heath Ledger smiled at each other and greeted enthusiastically, seemingly related, but the hostility in their eyes was undisguised.

The boss is dead, who did it?Who will do this position?

Both of them were jealous, and both thought it was the opponent's hand.

Car accident?Oh, it's such a coincidence that the boss just got out of jail, and when the manpower was the most relaxed, there was a car accident.

Who believes it?

The remaining senior executives in the conference room also exchanged glances.

It's time to choose a team.

Jason Statham looked from everyone's face with interest. Tom Cruise was extremely upset by the coldness in his eyes. He couldn't help but make a noise, but was stopped by his buddy Nicholas Cage.

"Sit down."

"Director of SHIELD" calmed the scene.

"Pass." Wen Ziren exclaimed excitedly when he saw Lyman hadn't said anything.

Is this the director?That's cool.

Lehman nodded slightly, the old drama bones were different, and he easily controlled the confrontation.

It's pretty awesome, I have nothing to say about that look.
