Best Movie Star

"In a short period of time, there will be no more front-line projects using Will-Smith."

In the office of the Angel Agency, Helen Herman slowly sipped the coffee and said to Matthew, "Are you satisfied now?"

Matthew picked up the teacup and took a sip, "What do you mean, am I satisfied now?"

Helen Herman revealed without hesitation, "You never forgot about the Will Smith attack on you, did you?"

Matthew was just drinking tea, neither admitting nor denying it.

"It's not hard to come to a conclusion by analyzing what you've done on this basis." Helen Herman is different from others after all. As a friend, agent and partner, she considers herself to be the one who understands horses best in the world. Xiu said, "Some things that others have never cared about or won't care about, you actually do it on purpose, for Will Smith."

Matthew put down his teacup and said, "I never said or suggested that Warner Bros. or DC Comics cast Will Smith as Hal Jordan."

Helen Herman didn't answer this at all, and asked herself, "Matthew, how do you judge that "Green Lantern" may fail?"

Matthew was silent for a moment, and after thinking about it, he said, "I have read Charles Rowan's script and plan." He knew that these alone were not convincing, so he simply asked, "Helen, didn't you find out?"

Helen Herman looked at him, "What did you find?"

"Because of the huge success of Marvel superhero movies, especially Iron Man, Warner Bros. and DC Comics are too eager to catch up." Matthew said slowly, "Warner Bros. and DC Comics are so anxious that their mentality is completely different. There was a bit of an imbalance, and I got some information from Charles Rowan, as early as the script writing stage, whoever had the power to reach out, did it."

He spread out his hands, "Countless cases in the past have told us that a film project has too many dominant voices, and basically all fail."

Helen Herman nodded lightly, "That makes sense."

These were not enough to convince her, but she didn't ask any further. She could see that Matthew had a unique judgment in this regard, but he never explained it directly.

Everyone has secrets, even the best friends won't tell, Matthew has them, so does she.

Continuing to ask questions may lead to some bad consequences. If it hurts the relationship between the two, it is really stupid.

She took the initiative to change the subject, "Why didn't you remind Warner Bros.?"

Matthew said lightly, "Warner Bros. was suddenly overtaken by an old friend who had been suppressed for many years, and they are still far behind. You can imagine their anxious mentality." He sighed, "Do you think Warner Bros. and DC Comics Under such circumstances, can the management listen to the advice of an outsider? If I speak indiscriminately, it may affect the very harmonious cooperative relationship between the two parties."

Hearing these words, Helen Herman nodded slowly, "Your choice is very correct." She suddenly said, "You are a person, everything is good, but you hold too much vengeance."

"Some things I can ignore and choose to ignore, but some things I can't pretend not to see." Matthew has never denied holding grudges, "The one who stood up was Jada Smith, but Will Smith would Unknown? If they succeed, what will happen to me?"

"Don't let hatred overwhelm your reason," Helen Herman reminds.

Matthew pointed to his forehead, "I've always been sober, if I'm not sober, how can I endure for so many years?"

After all, this is a society under the rule of law, and those people can't attack him, and he immediately jumped out and killed them all.

Similar retaliation is undoubtedly controlled within the scope of the law.

Otherwise, it is not revenge, but self-destruction.

Helen Herman nodded, "If Will Smith doesn't have enough luck, it's going to be hard to get to the front line."

Matthew smiled, "I'm done with him."

The premise of this is, of course, that Will Smith stop doing things against him.

A rival of legitimate competition, even if Matthew fails, he has never done anything, but competition has made those unsightly means, and what he wants is not only a role or project, but also further unlucky, then he will not polite.

How to choose between bullying and being bullied?

You can't come over and step on your face, not only don't hide, but also take the initiative to put your face up, right?

Matthew would rather be a bad guy than a saint.

The two talked about the Justice League universe adjusted by Warner Bros. and DC Comics.

Matthew turned down the role of Superman, looking at the relationship of years of close cooperation, and proposed to Warner Bros. the Justice League universe to move steadily, but in addition to DC Comics with a new universe to unify the world view of the Justice League and use Cyborg to replace Green Lantern Besides, it's really hard to say how much the other two companies can hear.

Warner Bros. is a huge studio after all, and some decisions are hard to turn around.

"Since the management of Warner Bros. and DC Comics is out of balance, there may be problems in the future. We will not mix things up with the Justice League." Is the sci-fi project ready to start?"

Matthew nodded, "It's best to start preparations within this year." He rubbed his forehead, "A sci-fi film on Mars needs a production budget of hundreds of millions of dollars, I'm still waiting for "Twilight Saga" "Part of the money back."

Helen Herman, who apparently noticed the project long ago, asked, "Is there a suitable director?"

"No?" Matthew has worked with Helen Herman for many years. How could he not understand the meaning behind these words and asked, "Do you have a suitable candidate to recommend?"

Helen Herman was also polite and said directly, "What do you think of Ridley Scott?"

"Uh..." Matthew asked a little surprised, "Will Ridley be missing items?"

Although Ridley-Scott is not among the top directors in Hollywood, he is firmly in the ranks of the first-tier directors. A director of this level has always been looking for him for projects. How could he have no films to make?

"Ridley's not been doing very well recently," Helen Herman said briefly, "His last two films, 'Body of Lies' and 'Robin Hood' have all been commercial failures, especially '' The film Robin Hood, which cost $200 million to produce, only returned $100 million at the North American box office, which directly led to the breakdown of the multi-year cooperation between Ridley and Universal Pictures."

She sighed lightly, "Abandoned by Universal Pictures, Ridley is a little depressed, and has been looking for a suitable project to re-prove himself recently. 20th Century Fox wants him to go back and remake the "Alien" series, but Ridley I don't want to use a sequel to prove I'm not old."

Matthew didn't speak, but thought in silence. Ridley-Scott screwed up two films in a row, and it looked like he was going downhill. Will he screw up a third one?

It's really hard to say.

If it was another director, he would have refused, but Ridley Scott helped him a long time ago.

Although the first role he played was a passer-by who didn't even have a name in "The Girl Who Moved Soul", it was "Gladiator" directed by Ridley Scott that really made him enter the industry.

It was Ridley Scott who promoted him to be the barbarian leader, and later gave him a supporting role in Black Hawk Down, who had a very good character, and who was fighting for his role as a blacksmith in Pirates of the Caribbean. When playing the role of El Turner, he strongly recommended it to producer Jerry Bruckheimer.

It's no exaggeration to say that Ridley-Scott was the nobleman he could slaughter out of an ordinary actor in his early days.

At least, Ridley Scott helped him.

"This is an alien sci-fi project, with some traditional hard sci-fi flavor." Helen Herman is not just out of selfishness, but really measured, "Matthew, you know Ridley, this is him The type of subject that I am most good at.”

Matthew slowly turned the teacup in his hand, thought for a while, and then said, "Well, Helen. I'm going to the premiere on the other side of the Pacific. When I get back, you can come out with Ridley sometime. How about these old friends get together and talk about this project?"

"Okay." Helen Herman knew Ridley Scott. "I think Ridley would like to reunite with old friends."

She glanced at Matthew, and rarely put on a complicated look. To say that Matthew is an asshole, there are really few people in Hollywood who are more cheeky than him, but he treats friends. Or on those who helped him, he was impeccable.

This guy simply interprets the two sides of people vividly.

Matthew stood up to say goodbye and went back to pack his luggage for the other side of the Pacific Ocean, but Helen Herman stopped him~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There is one thing that I have thought about for a long time, and I think you need to pay attention. "Helen Herman said very seriously, "In the case of Harvey Weinstein, we are almost at the closing stage, maybe next year, maybe the year after, we will give him a fatal blow. . "

Matthew looked at Helen Herman, not knowing what she was going to say.

Helen Herman's tone is still steady, "You are too chaotic in the relationship between men and women, even if it is your own wish, maybe there will be trouble at that time, I suggest you find a suitable person before launching a fatal blow. people get married."

Matthew immediately understood what Helen Herman meant. "Having a stable family, even if someone attacks me, it doesn't matter much, right?"

Helen Herman nodded. "Almost. It's good for you."

Matthew thought about it for a while before saying, "I will think about it, it's still early, don't worry."

Afterwards, he left the Angel Agency, packed his luggage, and rushed to the other side of the Pacific Ocean with the "Fast and Furious 5" crew the next day.
