"How many years ago was the last time we met?"
The bar was quiet and there weren't many customers, just Matthew, a muscular Dwayne Johnson, looked at Matthew and asked, "Two years ago or three years ago?"
Matthew raised his glass, gestured to Dwayne Johnson, then raised his glass to Diane Kruger, Justin Basha, and Jon Vought, and waited for everyone to drink together before saying, "I forgot what year it was, Dwayne." I only remember that it was an audition for "The Mummy Returns". ”
Dwayne Johnson pursed his lips and nodded, "You passed the audition and I was eliminated. ”
Matthew smiled, "So we were rivals a few years ago. ”
Dwayne Johnson laughed.
In fact, Matthew tried it when he first met Dwayne Johnson in the crew, Dwayne Johnson didn't know what happened behind the audition that year, and always thought that his acting skills were not up to par, so he was eliminated.
In the past two years, Dwayne Johnson has participated in several films, and with the fame in the professional wrestling world, he has also gained some popularity in Hollywood.
Dwayne Johnson didn't take the audition too seriously, toasted with Matthew, and said with a big grin, "If I had won the audition that year, maybe the two of us would have to be transferred to our current positions." ”
Matthew nodded, "It's possible." ”
He doesn't remember when Dwayne Johnson first entered Hollywood, but he knows that this guy later climbed to the top line, and that earthquake movie also showed to some extent that he has the ability to monoclonal antibody at the box office.
Of course, Alexandra D'Addario's shock also contributed to it.
As the inviter, Matthew couldn't just talk to Dwayne Johnson and chat with Justin Basha, who is the best developing person in the Angel Agency except for him, and is very promising to become a third-tier star.
Justin Basha is polite and polite, he is the assistant of the actor in the film, and he has been filming together in the crew for so long, Matthew has a good sense, and the other party is very responsible, and he did not mess around with any small actions because of the resource allocation of the angel agency.
"Johnny ......" Matthew said, picking up his glass, touching Jon-Walter's glass, "Johnny, cheers." ”
Jon Walter had a drink with Matthew, perhaps because the age difference was too much, and he had very few words.
Matthew said, "Johnny, I've known Julie for a long time. ”
Hearing the name of his troublesome daughter, Jon-Walter seemed to look a little unpleasant, and glanced at Matthew strangely, thinking that Julie had a leg with Matthew.
"Johnny, don't get me wrong. Matthew noticed the change in Jon Walter's face and quickly said, "I was able to enter Hollywood, Julie helped a lot, and my first role was introduced by Julie." ”
"That's right. Jon-Walter nodded.
Matthew then chatted with Diane Kruger, the German actress who starred in "Troy" last year, in which she played the peerless beauty Helen who sparked the Trojan War, which will also be released this summer.
"Troy" was released on the second weekend of the summer season, only a week later than "Van Helsing".
Matthew has seen this film before, and remembers that the actor is Brad Pitt, and after the last time he talked to Orlando Bloom, when he was on the phone, Orlando Bloom once mentioned that he played a very important prince in this film.
In this way, the first two films at the beginning of the summer file all have Orlando Bloom, one is an absolute actor, and the other is also an extremely important supporting role, and the resources obtained by this British actor will definitely make countless people envious.
It's a pity......
Matthew shook his head, some things are also very strange, some actors starred in a small production that was not taken seriously, but the box office exploded and successfully ascended;
The few people didn't stay at the bar for long, they didn't have a good relationship with each other, and they had work tomorrow, so they quickly went back to their respective rooms.
The filming continued in Washington, D.C., but the shooting schedule was subject to change, and many of the locations were popular tourist attractions, and if there were too many tourists, the crew would readjust the shooting according to the real-time situation.
A broken van was parked on the lawn, and Matthew, Justin Basha and Diane Kruger finished their make-up and all made their way to the lawn behind the van, the crew was ready, and director Joe Detdubar came over to talk about the play.
"Diane!" he said to Diane Kruger first, "you get the Declaration of Independence from Matthew, find out that he is not on you, and take off your heels and run away. ”
"Hmm. Diane Kruger looked at the lawn, which the staff had already cleaned up, and it was soft, "No problem." ”
Joe Detdubar then said to Justin Barsha, "You can just sit in the car and talk to Matthew. ”
Justin Barsha knew very well that his character was just the little brother of the male lead, and responded, "Okay. ”
Finally, Joe Detdubar said to Matthew, "Diane has run away, she has run some distance, you pick up her high heels and throw her with your shoes!"
Matthew nodded, "Hmm." ”
Joe Detdurbar asked Diane Kruger again, "Didn't you wear the wrong shoes?"
"Nope. Diane Kruger laughs, "These shoes are uncomfortable to wear. ”
"Hold on for a while. ”
Joe Detdurbar said this and left the set.
Matthew looked down at the high heels on Diane Kruger's feet, which were specially made by the props crew, almost entirely made of leather, in order for him to throw them out and smash the fleeing heroine in this scene.
Filming soon began.
"I'll tell you! Listen!" Matthew took the cylinder off his back and walked towards Diane Kruger, who was sitting on the ground, "I'll let you hold your Declaration of Independence!"
He handed the cylinder to Diane Kruger, bent down, and said solemnly, "You promise me to stop talking nonsense, thank you!"
Diane Kruger hugged the cylinder containing the Declaration of Independence, lowered her head, and her eyes stole at Matthew.
Matthew walked back and forth to the car to discuss with Justin Barsha what to do with the Declaration of Independence.
He's a little nervous, and with a gritty face, he looks a little weird, but director Joe Detdubar once said that it makes him feel good this way.
Starring in several films, coupled with consistent practice over the years since 1999, Matthew's acting skills are not very good, but it is becoming easier and easier to cope with undemanding commercial entertainment films.
Especially the kind of character who is similar to his traits in some ways.
The script of this film, the last revision, is mainly to modify the setting of the male protagonist and add action scenes, and the setting of the male protagonist is also modified to match his own temperament and appearance.
For example, in this scene, in the original script, the heroine wanted to escape, but was directly hugged by the male protagonist.
The changed script, in order to show the male protagonist's skills and appropriately increase the funny, changed to the male protagonist picking up the high heels that the heroine took off, throwing them out and knocking her down.
Matthew was still discussing with Justin Barsha according to the lines, Diane Kruger quietly withdrew her high heels under the cover of her long skirt, and took advantage of Matthew's walk to her far end, holding the cylinder containing the Declaration of Independence, got up from the lawn, and ran on two long legs.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Matthew turned and shouted, "That's not going to work!
Diane Kruger had no intention of stopping, and in the blink of an eye, she had already run five or six meters.
Matthew stopped talking nonsense, and just wanted to chase it, just in time to see Diane Kruger's high heels taken off, picked one up, and threw it at Diane Kruger.
I don't know if it was Matthew's luck or Diane Kruger's bad luck that the flying heels were impartial and smashed right on her head.
"Oops-"
Diane Kruger screamed and fell straight onto the grass.
"Stop!" the director, Joe Detduba, shouted to stop filming and exclaimed, "This one is over!
Then he shouted, "Doctor!"
Matthew didn't care about the rest of the crew, and seeing that Diane Kruger hadn't gotten up yet, he hurriedly trotted over to check on the situation.
Originally, this shot ended with him throwing high heels at Diane Kruger, and there were two panels behind him, respectively filming his throwing action and the scene where the shoes hit Diane Kruger, and the smashing in the breakdown shot is not like the current smashing.
Who would have thought that he would miss and hit Diane Kruger in the head.
Although the high heels were specially made and it was impossible to smash his head, Matthew rushed over with apologies and hurriedly asked, "Diane, are you okay?"
Diane Kruger rubbed the back of her head and turned her head and said, "It's okay, it just fell, but luckily the turf is soft." ”
As she spoke, she wanted to get up, but Matthew quickly reached out and pulled Diane Kruger up from the grass and asked, "Do you need to see a doctor?"
Diane Kruger shook her head, "It's fine. She brushed the grass clippings off her clothes, and said with some dissatisfaction, "Didn't you just throw it? Why did it hit me?"
"I don't know. Matthew looked apologetic, "I threw it away......"
He didn't defend himself anymore, and said solemnly, "I'm very sorry, Diane." ”
Diane Kruger saw Matthew's sincere apology, decided it was an accident, and said, "It's okay." ”
Matthew smiled embarrassedly and said, "I caused you to fall, otherwise, when you have time, I will invite you to dinner, which can be regarded as a formal apology." ”
Before entering the film industry, Diane Kruger was a model, and immediately a trace of vigilance appeared in her heart, and she smiled and politely declined, "It's okay, I'm really fine." ”
She gestured to her clothes, "It's time for me to remove my makeup." ”
Seeing Diane Kruger leave, Matthew didn't stop long and walked towards his makeup trailer.
After filming this scene, his scene in Washington is all done, and tomorrow he is ready to return to Los Angeles for the upcoming Oscars, while carrying out the hype plan of Helen Herman and Sean Daniel.
