A huge thrust shook his body, like the ground shaking, Paul Walker reflexively struggled to win his eyes, and captured the assistant's face in his hazy vision, he subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes, "I know, I'll get up now." He rubbed his eyes vigorously with the back of his hand, but he was still slightly sour, so he closed his eyes and recuperated, and after counting down ten seconds silently in his heart, he sat up directly, sat in place with a chicken nest on his head, and was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath, lifted the quilt, and walked out of bed.

Open the tight curtains, look out through the window, the whole world is still gloomy, the dark night that you can't see your fingers is glowing with a distinct layer of ink, as if everything in the line of sight has faded to black and white. It wasn't until now that Paul realized that this was not sunny Los Angeles, but the changeable weather of England.

It was only four o'clock in the morning, and the earth and the mountains were still asleep, and the silence of the thick ink was surging in the gloomy gray tones, and there was a thrilling silence.

This time he came to the UK, and Paul came specifically to play "Edge of Tomorrow". Just three days ago, Paul thought that this cameo might not be possible, and apologized to Lan Li on the phone across the ocean, hoping that they would be prepared for the role selection second-hand, because "Edge of Tomorrow" is about to start filming, and "Fast and Thrill/Love 6" has also been emphasizing that they are about to start filming, and Paul is bound to be lacking in skills.

The important thing is that Paul has already signed with "Fast and Furious/Emotional 6", while "Edge of Tomorrow" has not, it is just a friendship appearance, so Paul has no choice.

But within three days, there was another turmoil within the crew of "Fast and Furious/Love 6", Vin Diesel and Michael Forterey tore their faces, and it was rumored that it was because of accountability - after Lan Li signed with the "Edge of Tomorrow" crew, the cast of "Fast and Furious 6" The cast and cast of "Fast and Furious 6" signed a collective salary, and the final cost exceeded the budget by nearly $20 million, which led to a seismic reaction within Universal Pictures.

In the end, Michael was kicked out of the crew of the "Fast and Thrilled" series and officially said goodbye. Prior to this, Michael was involved in the entire production of the first five installments in the series, which can be called his masterpiece in Hollywood, but this time he was kicked out, causing an uproar within the crew.

However, after Michael's departure, the addition of Paul Walker, Alexander-Dostal, and Clayton-Tonsend stabilized the production process of the crew for the first time. Unfortunately, the matter is still not over, and Van disagrees with Neil and Paul in the discussion meeting, mainly over the production team and the story framework. The two sides have not been able to reach a consensus for the time being, and the negotiations are continuing.

Seeing that the filming could not be completed in the short term, Ron Meyer, the helmsman of Universal Pictures, made a decision to shoot the sixth and seventh parts of "Fast and Thrilling" continuously, giving up Luke Hobbs's biography to ensure that the two sequels could be completed with quality and quantity, so he withdrew from the competition for the summer of 2012 and targeted the spring or summer of 2013, and the specific schedule was decided according to the filming schedule.

In other words, "Fast & Thrill 6" won't be filming anytime soon. Paul was told that he would wait until after the Oscars were over at the earliest. So, Paul packed his bags and made a long flight to the UK, and then to Hampshire, where he managed to join the crew at the last minute before the official start of filming on Edge of Tomorrow.

Today, Edge of Tomorrow is about to be officially launched. It had been less than six hours since Paul arrived in England.

Before Paul's arrival, the "Edge of Tomorrow" crew had been running in and rehearsing for nearly two weeks, and had equipment training. Paul was absent from these trainings, so although today was the first day of filming, Paul still needed to go to the crew in advance to complete the makeup, styling and other work, and then have a brief meeting with the crew members, and then the crew would hold a small start-up ceremony inside.

That's why Paul got up at four o'clock in the morning. The first day of the boot is always busy, and even more so for Paul today.

Stretching, he turned and went into the bathroom, and after a quick wash, Paul left the room and walked towards the set not far away.

It's a small town called Levisdon, a natural place to shoot a movie, even though it's a remote place that many Brits aren't very familiar with. Warner Bros. has set up a soundstage here, with port, forest, farm, countryside and other European-style scenes nearby, which can shoot many types of films, and in addition to Warner Bros., other major film companies occasionally rent studios here and put them into shooting.

Warner Bros. has filmed many "Harry Potter" films here, and in order to make full use of the copyright resources, it has even set up a tour group to visit the "Harry Potter" set here, so that fans from all over the world can experience the magic of the set up close.

Leavisden, with the exception of Warner Bros. Studios, is a remote and ordinary town with simple and simple residents. In order to avoid disturbing the daily life of the local residents during the filmmaking period, the filming base can be said to be a small village, equipped with all the accommodation and food systems. During the filming, the actors all lived in the homestay at the base.

The so-called B&B does not refer to a chase shop or a shared room. Generally speaking, the main actors can have a separate room, while extras and actors may need two or four people to share a room. Despite this, the leading actors must also live in the same environment as other extras and actors, and it is inevitable that they will not be able to adapt to a small number of top big names.

If these big-name actors need a relatively private space, then the nearby villages have also cleverly launched a homestay service, and they can choose to leave the studio and have their own independent space, which is equivalent to renting an apartment of their own or a villa of their own near the studio.

Rumor has it that there is a castle in the town next door, which is only a fifteen-minute drive away, that can be rented.

However, Paul was not picky, and he chose to live in a photography base. It's not just Paul, I've heard that the entire "Edge of Tomorrow" crew is like this. It's not unusual to think about it carefully, this is a crew without any big names, and young people are the absolute main component of the crew.

The studio itself is like a small town, with 12 studios, four warehouses, a two-story office building and a purpose-built living area. Leaving his accommodation, Paul sat in a golf cart and drove for about ten minutes to reach the dressing room.

The dressing room is directly opposite Studio 8, and today's start-up is about to officially start at Studio 8, filming all the scenes at the airbase.

The so-called air base is actually Heathrow Airport in the movie. Heathrow Airport is set in a setting where Heathrow Airport becomes a transit point for troops on their way to the front line, and the film will be shot in two parts, one on location at Heathrow Airport and one in the studio.

Photography clearance has been obtained for filming at Heathrow, but the schedule needs to be rescheduled. So, the first scene of the start-up starts from the inside of the air base, that is, the first meeting between William Cage and Detachment J.

Entering the dressing room, Paul thought he was the first to arrive at the scene. After all, he was the latest to join the crew, and today the first scene has his role, and he has countless jobs to complete: setting makeup, fitting out, reading scripts, reciting lines, skilled actors, rehearsals before rehearsals......

Getting up at four o'clock and starting the ceremony at nine o'clock, in fact, the time is not enough. But he could get up at three, but the rest of the staff couldn't. So, he had to speed up. However, seeing the busy figures in the dressing room, Paul almost had the illusion, "Is it four o'clock in the afternoon?"

The expected dressing room should be empty, and then a few makeup artists and stylists sit on chairs and doze off, begging for coffee, lifeless and sleepy;

Paul immediately felt sorry, and it was really embarrassing if because of him, the crew's progress had not even started.

"Hey, Paul. A petite woman approached, "I'm Abby-Mills, the theater assistant. If any situation arises, you can contact me and I will try my best to solve it. She smiled and took Paul's right hand, "The first thing you need to do now is to go over and try it on, we received an email from your assistant to book the military uniform according to the size, but you still need to complete the fit." ”

"Okay, no problem. Paul replied with a crisp nod, hesitating for a moment, "Excuse me, am I late?"

Abby was stunned, then reacted to Paul's meaning, "No, no." It's just that everyone took the initiative to come early. Today's first scene requires a large number of extras, and they all need to complete makeup, and the time for the extras to report is four o'clock, and the leading actors also adhere to this time, which we did not expect. Abby finished explaining in a few words, "However, there is no work for the actors for the time being, so everyone is resting in the makeup area." ”

Paul breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Looks like I'm going to have to pick things up." ”

Under Abby's guidance, Paul walked inside, only a few steps away, and then saw the actors scattered in the makeup area, some familiar faces, some unfamiliar. Subconsciously, Paul began to look for Lan Li's figure, but when he looked around, he didn't see it, could it be that Lan Li was still sleeping?

This is not surprising. In the past, when filming "Fast and Thrill/Emotion 5", Lan Li was like this, either working or sleeping. Obviously, sleeping is Lan Li's favorite pastime.

Since he didn't see Lan Li, Paul was ready to change his path, first to try on clothes, and then come back to greet the actors, and the work still had to be differentiated. But the rest of his eyes caught Lan Li's figure - Lan Li who was sleeping.
