At two o'clock in the morning, it was still dark, Matthew had already walked into the Pine Forest Studio, sat in the makeup trailer outside the studio, and began the long makeup process.

From the moment Matthew boarded the flight to London, he carried the script with him and would take it out whenever he could.

Based on his investigation and understanding with Helen Herman, Stephen Sommers is a relatively stubborn person, and filming under this kind of director is best done according to the script written by the director.

In addition, he wears a small player and can listen to ancient Egyptian lines on headphones at any time.

The Scorpion King doesn't have many lines in the film, all in ancient Egyptian, and at the end of Matthew's audition, the crew didn't inform him of this, nor did they ask him to prepare for it, but after coming to London, he was given a cassette tape for him to master as soon as possible.

There were only five sentences in the tape, all of which were very short, and although Matthew quickly memorized them, he was a little worried about his language skills, so he would take them out and listen to them from time to time.

It took nearly three hours to put on makeup alone, and by the time Matthew had finished changing his clothes and done all the styling, it was already half past seven in the morning.

It was bright outside the makeup trailer, Matthew was hungry, and it would take a while for the shoot to start.

According to the contract, this is his special makeup trailer, and the makeup artist is also his special makeup artist during the filming of the crew.

"There's one more ......," said the female makeup artist, with the assistance of her assistant, who temporarily coiled Matthew's wig around her head and covered it with a hat, "and you'll be ready for breakfast." ”

She looked at her watch and said, "The crew is about to officially go to work, and it is estimated that the assistant for you will be coming soon." ”

Matthew asked, "Sasha, is the assistant male or female?"

The makeup artist said with a smile, "It may be a man or a woman, and the crew recruited many new young men and women from the United Kingdom and the United States before the start of filming." ”

She gestured to Matthew, "Stand up." ”

Matthew stood up, and Sasha and his assistant applied a special makeup oil to his bare upper body and legs exposed under his armor and skirt, and the oiled muscles were clearer and smoother, as sharp and angular as rocks, and even to the naked eye, they looked more and more strong and strong.

After applying the oil, Sasha looked around Matthew a few times to confirm that there was no problem, and said, "Okay, it's finally done." ”

There was a knock on the door, and Matthew casually shouted, "Please come in." ”

A girl who looked to be in her early twenties walked in, wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt and denim cropped pants, with a typical Asian face under her short and medium black hair.

The girl walked right next to Matthew and introduced herself, "Hello, Mr. Horner, I'm Mira Wang, your assistant during the filming of the set. ”

Matthew glanced at her, this girl is very much like an Asian mixed-race, maybe in the West's aesthetic of Eastern woman Lucy Liu, she is probably very ordinary, but in the Oriental aesthetics, it can be regarded as good.

"Are you ......," he asked tentatively, "Chinese?"

The girl shook her head, "No, I'm British, Chinese." ”

"Hmm. Matthew didn't continue the conversation and said, "Do you know where the crew's food truck is?"

"Do you need me to get breakfast?" said the girl named Mira, who was obviously very conscious of being an assistant, "what do you want to eat?"

Sasha, the makeup artist, said, "It's better to have bread or other easy-to-eat food." She said to Matthew again, "You have to pay attention to what you eat and drink." ”

Matthew, who is not a novice, naturally knows how to keep his makeup up, and says to Mira, "Help me get some bread, thank you." He asked Sasha and the others, "What do you want to eat?"

"We don't need to. Sasha walked over to the sink, turned on the faucet, and said as she washed her hands, "I'm done, just go by yourself." ”

Mira was the first to leave, followed by Sasha and her assistant leaving the makeup trailer.

Matthew sat in his chair and waited less than five minutes when Mira pushed the door open and walked in, bringing several different flavors of bread.

Eating something carefully, not long after Sasha and the two of them came back, a staff member came to inform Matthew to enter the studio to prepare, he picked up his weapon and shield, and got out of the makeup trailer first.

is completely different from the small role he played before, the Scorpion King is an important supporting role, and the crew is specially equipped with makeup artists and assistants for him.

Matthew doesn't have the habit of instructing people to run errands, but just like asking Mira to fetch breakfast, once she puts on makeup, her movement is bound to be restricted.

Entering the studio, a patch of yellow sand was laid on the ground, and a green screen was erected around it, except for the camera position.

In addition to the sand, the most people on the set are extras, and there are hundreds of extras like Matthew who are shirtless and armed with weapons.

All of these people were going to be used as background paintings for him.

Matthew entered the filming set under the leadership of the assistant director and stood at the front of the extras.

Director Stephen Sommers checked the camera, walked into the filming set, and then saw Matthew, first frowned, a trace of disgust rose in his heart, and then stopped to take a good look at him.

"Looks like he's more toned than he was at the audition?"

Stephen Sommers was quick to confirm this, and it immediately occurred to him that the actor must have done a lot of preparation after the audition.

This made the disgust in his heart fade a little.

At least in terms of stature, the actor looks as if he is well prepared.

Then, Stephen Sommers came up to all the actors and beckoned to Matthew, "Come here!"

Matthew didn't say a word, and hurried over to Stephen Sommers.

Stephen Sommers, after all, is a director, and quickly suppressed some thoughts in his heart, put work first, and said, "You stand on the stone in front of them, direct them to attack, and do what is written in the script." ”

Matthew replied seriously, "Yes!"

Stephen Sommers looked at his look again and said, "Remember in ancient Egyptian." ”

Matthew replied without hesitation, "Yes!"

Stephen Sommers called in an assistant director, who stopped caring about Matthew, to coordinate the extras' positioning.

With a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right, Matthew walked up to the stone at the front of the army, looked at the green screen opposite, and then turned his head to look behind, where Stephen Sommers was meticulously busy with his work.

This is undoubtedly a dedicated director, and in just a few words of conversation, Matthew can roughly see that Stephen Sommos still doesn't like himself, but he can suppress what he thinks, and everything is based on work.

After all, Matthew has signed a contract with the crew, and he can't change this fact without major changes.

Matthew then turned his head, went through the script in his head, and muttered strangely pronounced lines from ancient Egyptian, leaving Stephen Sommers behind for the time being.

He will try to avoid unpleasantness with Stephen Sommers as a director, and before coming to London, he has thought about it, he must be dedicated, patient, humble, and have a good relationship with people in the crew, and if he can, it is best to improve the relationship with Stephen Sommers, at least he can't let the director always have a cold face when facing him.

Once the extras were coordinated, filming began.

"Haaa......"

A man's majestic cry sounded on the set, and Matthew stood at the front of the queue, wearing a strangely shaped scorpion bracelet in his right hand, raising his sword and howling loudly, "Haaah......"

He was strong, his lung capacity was large enough, and he was full of energy, and his voice could be easily discerned even in the shouts of hundreds of people.

"Ha-a-ha, ha-a-......"

Matthew is still yelling, after nearly two months of professional training, his figure is more like David under Michelangelo's carving knife, but with a brave and fearless expression, it is better than thousands of statues!

Matthew has played this kind of tough guy or warrior role twice, and it can be said that he has rich experience, and he has practiced many times during the preparation period, so it is quite easy to deal with the Scorpion King now.

At the door of the studio, two people, a man and a woman, walked in, both dressed in their thirties and forties.

"Brand, is that the Scorpion King?" the heroine Rachel Weisz asked the male protagonist Brandon Fraser next to her, and Brandon Fraser nodded, "It should be." ”

Because they were filming, both of them spoke quietly.

Rachel Weisz stared at the set, "He's so strong! ”

"yes. Brand looked down at his somewhat out-of-shape figure and said with a smile, "I'm a little envious." ”

"Haaa......" Matthew shouted a few more times, holding his sword.

The expression on his face gradually became hideous, and he said a few lines in ancient Egyptian in a roaring way.

The soldiers acting as extras in the back shouted and ran forward, and Matthew took the lead, spreading his long legs and running in front of everyone.

"Cards!"

Stephen Sommers shouted to stop filming, and the crew immediately stopped, but instead of speaking, he pressed the playback button on the director's monitor to rewatch the footage that had just been shot.

His focus was, of course, on the Scorpion King.

Howl, no problem, figure, no problem, expression, no problem, dress up and props, no problem, Matthew Horner's performance and temperament, still no problem!

If the full score is 100 points, this shot can be scored 80 points!

That's not only enough for commercial entertainment films, but more than enough!

Stephen Sommers pressed the pause button, and the picture just stayed on top of Matthew's close-up.

It's true that this man is not as strong as Dwayne Johnson, but the traits of an unspeakable warrior are even more obvious, and if Dwayne Johnson is an incredibly strong man, Matthew Horner looks like the war-loving Ares descended on the studio.

"This is over!"

He couldn't find a reason for the shot.
