Not only Charlize Theron, but Matthew learned that more people would participate in the audition for the heroine when discussing the script and role with director Doug Liman, and after several first-line big names took the initiative to turn down the audition invitation, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" lowered the bar slightly, and five or six second-tier stars who were interested in Jane Smith received an audition invitation.

Among them are well-known figures such as Penelope Cruz, Milla Jovovich and Jessica Bale.

As last year's Oscar-winning actress, her salary is not very high, and Charlize Theron also received an invitation to audition.

Although she is an Oscar-winning actress, Charlize Theron's box office appeal is not outstanding, and her best box office film so far is only "Stealing the Day" as a pure vase.

Of course, Charlize Theron also has an advantage, and the name of the current Oscar actress is here, and many crews are quite buying.

The Oscar for Best Actress is indeed a curse, but looking at Hollywood, it can be found that the movie stars who won the Best Actress are very popular afterwards.

It's just that many people are more unlucky and will keep pounce all the way......

Most Oscar-winning actresses tend to repeat the same path, get the little golden man, and the film appointment is soft, and they throw themselves on the street until they vomit blood, but with the halo of the Oscar-winning actress, as long as they can turn over in time, the future is still promising.

In any case, the topicality and influence of the Oscar for Best Actress are very huge.

Matthew was preparing for his role while also keeping an eye on the heroine's latest situation, and in his spare time, he watched the progress of Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Aniston's shocking gossip.

Angelina Jolie is very high-profile, constantly appearing in front of reporters and the media, and whenever she speaks, she will inevitably mention Pitt.

Jennifer Aniston, in contrast, has been much more low-key and has not been seen in public since letting her agent and spokesperson announce that she would be divorcing.

Her low profile has also fulfilled Brad Pitt in some ways, and Brad Pitt's whitewashing plan carried out by the public relations media has had a certain effect, and Pitt's fans have used the Internet as a position to accuse Jennifer Aniston of hiding the fact that she can't get pregnant from Brad Pitt.

Jennifer Aniston never spoke, only to let the spokesperson issue a divorce statement again.

“…… I wanted to get the most loyal relationship in the depths of my soul, but he had the right to choose another situation, so he chose to break up. ”

At the same time as the statement, Jennifer Aniston once again stressed that she would not ask Brad Pitt for a penny.

Jennifer Aniston has such capital and confidence, "Friends" just ended in May, and she is above Brad Pitt in terms of net worth and coffee position.

It is widely recognized in Hollywood circles that Rachel was married to Pete that year.

Matthew is not without malicious speculation that "Friends" is over this year, and Jennifer Aniston's value will definitely decrease, did Brad Pitt deliberately choose this time to end the marriage?

In fact, he can't blame him for such speculation, throughout the history of Brad Pitt's fame, women have become stepping stones, and Matthew also admires Brad Pitt, constantly borrowing girlfriends to climb to the position of superstar, not everyone can do it.

This earth-shattering gossip is bound to circulate for many years and become one of the most famous gossip events in Hollywood history.

During this time, Matthew was still thinking about how to find a way to move Aziva Gosman and ask him not to choose Nicole Kidman for the heroine, but what he didn't expect was that after the previous actresses, Nicole Kidman also pushed down the audition for the role of Jane Smith before the test screening.

She turned down the audition because of a choice problem.

According to reliable information Matthew received from Helen Herman, Nicole Kidman reached an agreement with Sony Columbia Pictures to star in the film adaptation of ABC's 1964 film adaptation of "The Fairy Wife" for a whopping $20 million, and a pure $20 million salary that does not involve later sharing.

This huge salary is definitely the top for female stars, and Nicole Kidman will naturally not choose "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", which has a much lower salary offer, and quitting has become a natural thing.

Even, the crew of "A Fairy Wife" took the initiative to reveal to the outside world that Nicole Kidman's salary is as high as $20 million!

This will not only allow Nicole Kidman to get the title of the 20 million club, but also facilitate the promotion of the film.

The 20 million club is out of reach for actresses, and in comparison, the heroine of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is really not attractive at all.

The super box office poison left to scourge other crews and actors, and Matthew could breathe a sigh of relief, even if Charlize Theron couldn't get the heroine in the end, the fame of several other latecomers was not small.

Just as Matthew was preparing for Mr. and Mrs. Smith, he received a call from James McAvoy, who had traveled from England to Los Angeles with Michael Fassbender.

The three have kept in touch, but because of their busy work, they haven't seen each other for a while.

"Hey, Matthew!"

Inside the Burbank clubhouse, James McAvoy saw Matthew and immediately came over and gave him a bear hug, "You kid, you're stronger than before!"

Matthew hugged James McAvoy first, then Michael Fassbender next to him, and said, "You two are finally willing to leave the UK?"

Originally, Michael Fassbender stayed in Los Angeles to develop, and the year before he returned to London to act in a stage play.

James McAvoy shrugged, "There's nothing wrong with the UK, it's not as competitive as Hollywood. ”

Michael Fassbender added, "It's just that the weather is terrible. ”

Matthew laughed and beckoned James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender to sit down, and then the waiter brought in a specially purchased wine, and the three of them chatted and drank.

Compared to Matthew, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender have not developed well, Matthew once wanted to help them, but James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender have both refused.

They all cherish the hard-won "comradeship" with Matthew, and they also know that many friendships tend to turn bad quickly once they are tainted with interests.

Matthew also knew this, and originally just wanted to help them within the scope of his ability, and since James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender didn't accept it, he certainly wouldn't force it.

"Matthew, be honest!" Michael Fassbender said with a shark-like signature smile on his stomach, "How many female celebrities have you slept?"

"Not much, just a few. "Matthew seems to be humble.

James McAvoy said, "How many are you?" Before Matthew could speak, he calculated, "Let me count, how many female celebrities have had an affair with you." Keira Knightley counts as one, Jessica Alba is also one, and Scarlett Johansson ......"

He looked at Michael Fassbinder, and Michael Fassbender said very tacitly, "That's not much." ”

"It's not much, it's too little!" James McAvoy looked very disdainful, "You've been famous for more than a year, haven't you?

Marthew was rather disgruntled by James McAvoy and said, "James, what do you know?

James McAvoy snorted, "You're too bad at picking up girls, aren't you?" He pointed to himself, "There is a master sitting in front of you, and you can ask for advice at any time." ”

Matthew waved his hand, "Just you, maybe you're still a virgin!"

Michael Fassbender chimed in, "I can vouch for it, James isn't. ”

Matthew deliberately looked at Michael Fassbender in surprise and then at James McAvoy.

James McAvoy raised his middle finger directly, "Put away your vile thoughts." ”

Matthew was innocent, "Did I say anything?"

Michael Fassbender picked up his glass and shoved it into his hand, "Matthew, if you think about it again, I promise I'll get you drunk with James and throw you in the gay bar." ”

Matthew took a sip of his wine, then changed the subject, "Okay, let's talk about why you two left London." ”

"It's simple. Michael Fassbender picked up the bottle and poured Matthew wine, "James got a role, and he was going to shoot here, and I happened to be going to an audition, so I came along." ”

"Oh?" asked Matthew curiously, "James, what's the role?"

"A Disney Studios production. James McAvoy said directly, "In a children's film based on C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, my character is a half-goat. ”

Matthew nodded, and asked Michael Fassbender again, "What about you?"

Michael Fassbender laughs and says, "A character in a small production at Paramount Pictures. ”

Seeing that he didn't want to say, Matthew didn't continue to ask, the three of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, drinking and chatting was the right thing, and occasionally bragging about their respective pickled girls' achievements.

It wasn't until late at night that they left the clubhouse, and Matthew found a chauffeur to take James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender back to their hotel before heading home.

In the following days, Matthew did not meet the two again, he was going to attend the "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" crew of the heroine audition, and in the heroine audition, there was a necessary project, which was to play with him to see if there was that kind of subtle chemistry between the two parties.
