Tall trees are planted on both sides of the quiet road, independent houses are hidden in the night, disappearing in the bright moonlight, black Mercedes-Benz cars from far and near, the sound of the engine breaking the silence, frightened a few unnamed birds flying from the trees and rushing into the night sky.

With the barely audible sound of brakes, the Mercedes-Benz sedan stopped on the side of the road, and not far away the tall walls covered with ivy trees told the people in the car that their destination had arrived.

"I've arrived. Without waiting for Matthew to get out of the car, Alexandra Daddario pushed the door open and walked down, and a night breeze blew, and she tightened the men's coat draped over her shoulders and muttered, "It's early morning." ”

Matthew got out of the car and walked over, heard what she said, but didn't hear it clearly, and asked, "What's wrong, Anna?"

Alexandra D'Addario smiled and shook her head, "It's okay. ”

"Your handbag. Matthew handed the bag over.

Alexandra Daddario took it, pulled out the house key, and the car lights were on again in the direction he came, and he glanced over there, and several cars were parked not far away, and someone was getting out of the car and taking pictures with his camera.

"There are paparazzi. She reminded Matthew.

Glancing at the back, Matthew didn't care at all, and said casually, "I've been following the tail all year round." He gestured to the ivy-surrounded gate, "Anna, I'll let you in." ”

"No need. Alexandra Daddario politely refused, "It's not early, I'll rest when I go back." ”

Matthew was not reluctant, nodded, and said, "Okay, you rest early." ”

Alexandra D'Addario smiled, "Thank you, Matthew. It was a fantastic evening. She walked towards the door, and when she opened the wrought iron door, she turned her head and looked at Matthew, who had been watching her, "It's too late today, I'll invite you over another day." ”

"Hmm. Matthew waved at her, "Good night, Anna." ”

Alexandra D'Addario also waved his hand lightly, "Good night, Matthew." ”

She opened the wrought iron door and walked in, Matthew didn't stop any longer, got back into the car, and told the driver, "Go back to Beverly Hills." ”

Sitting in the car and looking back at the ivy-covered house he rented to Alexandra D'Addario, Matthew could clearly perceive that Alexandra D'Addario was no longer the relatively innocent girl she was when she filmed "Dawn of the Living Dead" with him, and that she had matured in the past few years, especially just now, both politely refusing and giving people hope......

Matthew is also in no hurry, and his feelings for Alexandra D'Addario, although far less than Charlize Theron, are also better than those other actresses and models.

When he got home, he suddenly felt that he was no different from most normal men, and what he couldn't get was the best.

After the Oscars, Hollywood fell into a boiling again, and there was a lot of gossip about Matthew and Alexandra Daddario's dating, but Matthew didn't spend the night with Alexandra Daddario as described in the tabloids, and then he continued to date Alexandra Daddario, but Alexandra Daddario always kept closer than her friends, but did not give him the opportunity to make real contact.

Matthew quickly understood what Alexandra D'Addario meant, and she was willing to accept his pursuit, but not in the form of a one-night stand.

Except for Britney, Matthew has not been formally dated with anyone else so far, although he has a crush on Charlize Theron, but the original engagement was completely a show, Charlize Theron was worried about him, and the two have never been real boyfriend and girlfriend.

He has a lot of apprehensions about pursuing a new girlfriend.

With Matthew's appearance at the Oscars, Warner Bros. also officially began to promote "I Am Legend", and the promotion of this film has also shifted from pre-publicity to pre-release promotion.

Warner Bros. set up a website for the viral marketing of "I Am Legend", and a sensational news broke out at the beginning of the website's establishment, which instantly attracted a lot of people's attention.

The website claims that a lab in New York has found a way to beat cancer, a virus that kills tumor cells without negatively affecting normal tissues, and that the therapy is now in clinical trials and will soon be rolled out if all goes well.

Similar news has appeared in many media and magazines, but if you pay attention, it is not difficult to find that media such as major newspapers have not reported similar news.

Even so, after a period of fermentation, many people have noticed this website.

This also achieves the initial purpose, viral marketing is often a long process and also takes time to ferment.

Of course, hype is irresponsible and unethical, but it's never a problem for Hollywood.

The viral marketing strategy developed by Warner Bros. is much more conscientious than a certain movie that Matthew once saw on the other side of the Pacific openly proclaiming the end of the world and causing a certain amount of social panic.

Nowadays, the social situation is changing dramatically, Hollywood, as a gathering place for liberals, can be called the vanguard of some changes, as an individual who exists in the whole society, a person must adapt to the changes in the social environment.

While Matthew pays attention to his own development, he also keeps an eye on the situation in Hollywood.

After the 79th Academy Awards, the most eye-catching thing is that Walt Disney has completed the acquisition of Pixar Studios.

Disney's acquisition agreement with Pixar Studios was officially signed last year, and after many busy months, Pixar Studios truly became part of Walt Disney.

Steve Jobs, the original owner of Pixar Studios, also became Disney's largest shareholder through a share swap.

In addition, many former Pixar studio executives, such as John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton, have joined Walt Disney's key departments to take charge of the declining content production of Disney itself.

"Disney will be holding a celebratory reception at the end of March. ”

Walking with Matthew in the gardens of Horner Manor, Helen Herman said as she walked, "They've sent me the invitation. ”

She turned her head to look at the hydrangea next to her, "Although we don't have a new collaboration with Disney after the Pirates of the Caribbean series, I suggest you go and participate." ”

Matthew turned into the stone path next to him, sat on the wicker chair next to the stone table, pointed to the other rattan chair opposite, and said, "Sit down, Helen." ”

The maid had already put tea here.

Helen Herman sat across from Matthew, took a casual sip of her teacup, and continued the conversation just now, "Steve Jobs will also be present at this drinking party." ”

"I'm going to see the schedule. Matthew thought for a moment and said, "If the schedule is right, I will definitely participate." ”

Helen Herman nodded lightly and added, "Keep an eye out for Andrew Stanton then." ”

"The director of Finding Nemo?" asked Matthew curiously.

"That's him. Helen Herman simply explained, "I met him some time ago, and he asked about your schedule and seemed to want to ask you to be the leading actor in his new film. ”

Matthew frowned slightly, "Let me voice his cartoons?"

Helen Herman shook her head, "No. Andrew Stanton, who is currently working on an animated film about Earth and robots, is ready to dabble in live-action filmmaking, and he wants to take over the film adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Princess of Mars. ”

She simply put down the teacup and said to Matthew intently, "The project "Princess of Mars", from the late seventies of the last century to the present, has died several times due to unexpected circumstances, Andrew Stanton found this project in Disney's copyright library, and is working with others to rewrite the script and prepare to restart the project. ”

Matthew thought for a moment and asked, "Edgar Rice Burroughs?" As he developed in Hollywood, he also learned some basic knowledge, "Is this the original author of Tarzan?"

"That's right, it's him. Helen Herman added, "Some of the settings of George Lucas's Star Wars series borrowed from Martian Princess. ”

Hearing her say this, Matthew suddenly remembered, "When I was filming Pirates of the Caribbean, I heard Disney people talk about this project. ”

At that time, he also lamented that the scripts of many Hollywood movies had been in the script libraries of various studios for unknown years.

Helen Herman further said, "From what I know, Disney Studios has great doubts about Andrew Stanton's desire to restart the project, Andrew Stanton's reputation in animation production, but he has never set foot in live-action films, and he wants to reach out to you, probably to create a situation where you can play the lead actor, so as to increase the possibility of attracting investment." ”

She thought for a moment and then said, "If Andrew Stanton's robot animated movie can be a big success, I guess Disney can release more of it." ”

Matthew scratched the stubble on his chin, "I've seen "Tarzan of the Apes", "Princess Mars" is very unfamiliar. ”

"It's a classic work of science fiction. "Published in 1912, there are 11 original books, and according to Andrew Stanton, his adaptation is largely based on the first one. ”

"Action type?" asked Matthew.

Helen Herman nodded slightly, "Action sci-fi genre." ”

The people in Pixar's studio are very capable, and this is now well known, Matthew thought about it for a moment and said, "That's it, Helen." You keep in touch with Andrew Stanton, and when he's done with the script, I'll look at the script. ”
