Heads Up Hollywood

Before leaving CAA, Brian Lord also told Tang En a very "sad" news, "Tang En, you must pay attention to safety when filming. I just got the news that the crew of "Blade Warrior" It's not very peaceful!"

"What's more?" Tang En's expression changed, he was very concerned, "Bryan, how is the situation?"

Brian Lord shook his head and sighed, "It's not very good. There was an accident on the shooting site. The background wall collapsed and hit a dozen people."

Tang En's complexion was heavy, and he said with great pain: "It's so serious? Didn't anyone die?"

Do you still want to kill yourself? Is it too cruel? !

Brian Lord's complexion changed, he took a deep look at Tang En, and lamented, "It's not life-threatening, but they are all hospitalized, and the crew may lose at least three million dollars."

Tang En frowned, "That's really unlucky! Hey! By the way, isn't "Blade Warrior" a package service of CAA? You..."

Brian Lord waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with us, the background wall is a shooting location bought by New Line a long time ago, a scene many years ago."

"It's such a pity. Why is the new line so careless?" Tang En kept shaking his head, as if he hated iron, "Shooting action scenes is inherently risky, and safety should come first."

Brian Lord nodded, "Yes, I believe New Line Pictures can learn a profound lesson from this accident, so let's take it as a warning."

Tang En's eyes moved a few times, and he curled his lips and said, "A warning? I don't believe it. After all, New Line Films is a small company, and Marvel has no experience in making movies. I think... maybe there will be another movie. Big mess, what do you say, Brian?"

Brian Lord's face was almost contorted, and he glanced at him like a torch, "Maybe, maybe not, who knows?"

Tang En seemed very confident, and said firmly, "I think it will! Bryan, my judgment has always been accurate, right?"

Brian Lord gritted his silver teeth, showing a bit of helplessness on his face, and sighed, "Maybe."

Tang En finally laughed, "Bryan, although I am young, I also know the truth that faith is more important than interests."

This amounts to a promise.

Brian Lord regretted it a bit. Was it a mistake to cooperate with Tang En?

It's just that the ship has been turned on, and there is no turning back.

"Of course, I've always thought so."

Brian Lord forced a smile.

Nicole Kidman and Pat Kingsley looked at each other, both a little puzzled, and felt that the conversation between the two was weird and had an indescribable taste.

Especially Dawn Walker, what does the New Line Films movie have to do with you?

Compassion is not popular in Hollywood, is it?

...

"My Big Fat Greek Wedding" has officially started filming.

In Tang En's version, after two months of repeated revisions, the script has changed a lot from the original version, with more jokes and richer plots, especially the process of acquaintance, acquaintance, and love between the hero and heroine, which is no longer the same as the original version. This kind of "inexplicable" love, but after going through many ups and downs and a series of stories full of jokes, finally tasted the tears of happiness.

More importantly, the director changed.

Although Garry Marshall's directing skills are not strong, with a comprehensive score of only 79, he is by no means an award-winning director, but his comedies are often the guarantee of the box office.

In contrast, the director of the original book... is basically at the same level as a graduate of the director department of the Film Academy, so bad!

Especially the various camera languages, picture levels, layout design, and viewing angles... The original version's impressive box office results really have nothing to do with the director, and it all depends on the story of the script as its big selling point.

Now, with better directors, better actors, more investment, and more powerful forces behind the push, Tang En believes that his version of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" is better than the original version. thing.

At this moment, Tang En appeared in Nicole Kidman's dressing room, staring in the mirror at the Australian goddess who had lost all her spirit.

Her complexion was slightly sallow, and her delicate skin was also much older. Her hair was dyed black, curled up high, and coiled on top of her head, as weird as it could be.

And her bloated costume also concealed her delicate figure, she looked no different from the aunt in the supermarket.

"It's not ugly enough! You can add some freckles to your face."

Tang En stood behind Nicole and offered his own suggestion.

Nicole Kidman is really angry. She has acted in movies for ten years, and she has always shown her most beautiful side in front of the audience. What is Tang En doing?

"Are you trying to destroy me?"

Nicole Kidman's voice was cold. Due to her professional ethics, she didn't quarrel with Tang En. She had swallowed her anger for a long time.

Tang En didn't care, and said lightly: "Nicole, believe me, this will be the most important breakthrough in your acting career! It's not that romance...not that big liar Kubrick!"

Kubrick is a big liar?

The makeup artists couldn't help trembling. Looking at the entire Hollywood, only an arrogant rising star like Dunn Walker dared to be so disrespectful to that famous senior, right?

Nicole Kidman was even more angry.

In the movie "Eyes Wide Shut", she took the biggest scale, and many shots showed her body without any cover, isn't it just to reverse the decline of her past career?

But now Tang En, a crow mouth, dares to satirize Master Kubrick!

"Twain, you are going too far!"

Facing Nicole's accusation, Tang En was not ashamed and sighed, "Nicole, believe me, that movie will definitely disappoint you, and the only one who can bring you hope is me!"

"snort!"

Between Kubrick and Don Walker, Nicole Kidman has no doubts about trusting the former.

Tang En shook his head and said seriously: "Nicole, I am amazed and intoxicated by your beauty, but it is also because of your beauty that everything you perform looks like a vase. Do you understand what I mean?"

After hearing this, several makeup artists were terrified again.

It doesn't matter if you praise Nicole for her beauty, but what does "intoxicated" mean? Is it really okay to show such unabashed love? Nicole...she's Mrs. Cruise.

Before this, Hollywood has always dressed up its actors in a more beautiful way, especially the female lead who resisted the box office. Who has ever heard of the theory of pretending to be ugly?

Tang En's words naturally did not gain the trust of Nicole Kidman, and he was a little indifferent, "I just hope that the filming can be completed smoothly."

The meaning is obvious, she only respects her profession, but doesn't respect the director Twain.

"You'll trust me."

Tang En shrugged, turned and left.

...

The first shot took place at the home of the heroine "Tula".

Nicole stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, looking at her face that had lost its youthful radiance, feeling melancholy, bitter, helpless, and bitter, "Tula, you are already thirty years old." Then she clenched her fist vigorously, "Come on, you will be able to get married!"

This is a scene that did not exist in the original version. Tang En's screenwriter team created a new scene after adaptation.

Through these few seconds of footage, the background and character of "Tula" are clearly explained, and it also paves the way for the subsequent comedy effect, which is not subtle.

"Stop!" Sitting behind the viewfinder screen, Tang En frowned and shouted, "Nicole, you have to understand that Tula's character is contradictory. She is in her thirties, no one likes her, she is waiting to marry For the Greeks, she has low self-esteem. At the same time, she also has a positive, optimistic and cheerful attitude towards life. What I need is a complex performance, not a straightforward narrative."

Nicole Kidman was a little annoyed when her acting skills were questioned in the first scene, wondering if Tang En was targeting herself.

However, after repeating the second time, Tang En interrupted her again, "Nicole, there is something wrong with your acting. Your sad side is very good, but your cheerful side is not. Don't always imagine that you are ugly." Girls, you have to ignore it frequently, and then show the playful and coquettish side that only beautiful girls have."

"Don't you think that's disgusting?" Nicole Kidman couldn't bear it anymore, and frowned.

Isn't it disgusting to let an ugly girl with makeup like this act coquettishly and cutely?

Tang En said with a smile: "You can think of this, which shows that you have some understanding of the characters, but this is not enough! We are filming a comedy, and creating contrast is the biggest comedy burden, understand?"

Nicole Kidman took a deep breath, "I'll try my best."

"Okay, the first scene, the third scene, let's start!"

Nicole Kidman stood in front of the mirror, her face was full of sorrow and helplessness, and she sighed bitterly: "Tula, you are already thirty years old, ahhhh!"

She shook her curly hair like crazy, stuffed her hands into her hair and scratched randomly, then stopped suddenly, her face changed, her jaw slightly raised, she showed a sweet smile at herself in the mirror, and then said deeply. Taking a breath, he clasped his hands confidently in front of his towering chest, gritted his teeth and said, "Come on, you will definitely be able to get married!"

"CUT!"

Tang En stood up with a smile, "Very well, Nicole, you performed very well."

Nicole Kidman breathed a sigh of relief and asked her assistant for a glass of water.

"But I believe you can play better!"

"ah?"

Nicole Kidman froze for a moment, then looked back at Tang En in amazement, feeling that she had been cheated!
