"Stop!" Zack Schneider roared in the studio, then walked to the green screen on the set and said to Eva Green, "Your look and feel are wrong!"

Opposite Eva Green, Matthew moved slightly, this is the fourth time that Zack Schneider has called for filming to stop, and the problems are all with Eva Green, Eva Green just joined the filming today, and the state is obviously not adjusted well, and the on-set performance is not as good as the actor who has been filming.

This is also normal, Zack Schneider patiently said for Eva Green, "You are now the queen of Sparta, you know that your husband will face hundreds of thousands of Persian troops this time, almost certain death, how should the queen feel at this time?"

Eva Green nodded, "I see. ”

Zack Snyder glanced at Eva Green, turned around and walked outside the set, frankly, he didn't think the French actress was very suitable for the role of Spartan Queen Gogo, but Matthew and Helen Herman recommended it, Matthew was the key to the smooth development of the project, and Helen Herman provided excellent service to the project, and he did not disagree.

After all, this is nominally a heroine, but in fact the role is not even a supporting actress.

"Don't be nervous. ”

On set, Matthew whispered to Eva Green, "It always feels like it's always finding little by little." ”

Eva Green smiled at Matthew, "Hmm. ”

The little actor who played their son next to him also took Eva Green's hand and said sensibly, "Sister Eva, I think you played very well." ”

Eva Green reached out and gently stroked the child's bald head, and Matthew couldn't help but laugh and said, "Little guy, you also played very well." ”

This child looks tender, but he is actually twelve or thirteen years old, and he is also a well-known child star in Hollywood.

The younger the child, the more uncontrollable it is when filming, and there are two major uncontrollable shooting factors recognized within Hollywood, one is child actors, and the other is animals.

Filming soon resumed, and the three of Matthew immediately resumed their previous positions.

"The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta!" said the assistant director, placing the sign in front of the camera lens, "the one hundred and eleventh, the twelfth act, start now!"

As his voice fell, the set fell silent for a moment.

Matthew walked towards the green screen behind him, Eva Green pursed her lips vigorously, looked at Matthew's tall and majestic back, seemed to have an indescribable pathos, and finally did not hold back, and shouted in a slightly trembling voice, "Spartan!"

The sound was heard far away, and Matthew turned his head, his brow furrowed slightly, but his face was as hard as a rock, as if no one and nothing could stop him.

He turned and stood there, "Yes, my queen." ”

Eva Green looked directly at Matthew, walked over, took a deep look at Matthew, took off the wolf tooth necklace around his neck, put it on for Matthew, and said, "Come back with your shield!"

"Yes, my queen!"

Matthew looked at Eva Green's slightly pale face, according to the Hollywood routine, this moment should have said "I love you", but he didn't say it, because Sparta can't be weak, can't be tied up by love, because only a strong person can call himself a Spartan, and only a strong person can be the king of Sparta!

No matter what the historical records are, the three hundred Spartan warriors in the film went out to defend the motherland, to protect the people, and to protect the eternal theme of mainstream Hollywood movies - freedom!

This is the biggest theme and excuse of Hollywood movies, as long as it is under the banner of freedom and profitable, Hollywood dares to shoot any type of film, even if it is to smear other countries and nations.

Zack Schneider stood up from behind the director's monitor and said loudly, "Good! well done!" but instead of shouting, he said, "Eva, you can do better! ”

Just as the crew was preparing to shoot again, David Ellison walked into the studio with a girl.

As the only investor in this film, David Ellison also has the title of producer, but he does not know much about the specific production of the film, except for hiring a special team and a third party as the supervision of the crew, he basically did not interfere with the filming of the crew, he was born in a business family, and studied at the University of Southern California Film School, knowing that indiscriminate interference can only create chaos.

In fact, his third-party supervision team will make a summary every day and send it to Sky Dance Pictures, and the report shows that the crew is running very smoothly.

David Ellison is indeed a bit too high-profile to do things for people, and he is not treated well by many people in Hollywood, but when you think about it, you also know that after receiving an elite education, Larry Ellison is willing to give financial support, even if he is not very good, he is definitely not a stupid.

"It's all green screen?"

Standing on the outside of the set, the girl who looked a little like Larry Ellison said, "Are you crazy, David?"

David Ellison shrugged, "Investing in movies is inherently crazy. He glanced at the girl and said, "Megan, don't go into Hollywood if you're not crazy." ”

The girl is David Ellison's sister Megan Ellison, who is also a rich second generation who wants to develop in the film industry, she shook her head and said, "I think your strategy is fundamentally wrong, putting most of the money in your hands on one project, it's quite stupid, once this project fails, what do you do?"

"Only with big investment and big production can there be great success. David Ellison said directly, "It's a testament to me that I'm a great film investor." ”

Megan Ellison shook her head, "It's too risky. She snorted and said, "Instead of investing in such a big production, it is better to invest in independent films, and the $80 million production investment is enough to make ten independent films, and as long as a third of them are successful, they can be profitable." ”

David Ellison sneered twice, "I've heard that you want to work with someone like Harvey Weinstein." He crossed his hands on his waist and said, "A domineering and self-righteous person like Harvey Weinstein may be finished at some point." ”

Meghan Ellison is not very old, but he has a lot of business acumen from the Ellison family, "but he has no signs of being finished now, and there is still a lot of use value, he has resources in the Hollywood industry and film school, and I have money, we just take what we need, if he is finished in the future, I don't mind kicking him twice, maybe if it works well, Weinstein Pictures ......"

She didn't say any more, but David Ellison was enough to understand, in fact, he knew very well that although his sister was a few years younger than him, she was far superior to him in terms of intelligence since she was a child.

Even, his father, Larry Ellison, said that Meghan's only flaw is that she is too young and relatively inexperienced.

When filming started on the set, Megan Ellison lowered her voice and said, "Let's just say that you have this project, a producer who has never produced an independent film, a director who has only shot one film commercials and MVs, and you throw in $80 million, do you have so much confidence in them?"

David Ellison's answer surprised Meghan Ellison, "I don't have much confidence in the director and producer, and I didn't invest in this film because of producer Jack and director Zack Snyder." ”

"What?" Megan Ellison looked at David Ellison puzzled, "You invest in all this?"

David Ellison stretched out a finger and pointed at the tall, athletic figure on the set, "I invested this $80 million because his name is Matthew Horner!"

Megan Ellison looked over and her first impression was that the man looked like a sculpture.

David Ellison continued, "Because Matthew Horner is the lead actor, I dare to invest that eight million dollars. ”

Megan Ellison questioned, "Is he worth $80 million?"

"Worth it! Absolutely!" David Ellison seemed very confident, and asked rhetorically, "Meghan, do you know how many box office the five films he starred in in the past have received after their release?"

Meghan Ellison pays the most attention to the independent film industry, although she also knows something about commercial films, but she has not specifically investigated, shook her head slightly and said, "I only know that "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" was a box office hit, but the first lead role is Johnny Depp, right?"

David Ellison did not deny it, and said directly, "The five movies starring Matthew Horner have collectively won more than $2 billion at the global box office after their release!"

Hearing this number, even though Meghan Ellison comes from a super-rich family, she still couldn't help but be moved and surprised, "Five movies, two billion dollars at the box office?

David Ellison smiled, "It's more than two billion dollars!" He looked at Meghan Ellison, "You should know that box office revenue is only a part of the revenue generated by movies, and these five films starring Matthew Horner will not be much lower than the box office in terms of peripheral revenue." ”

Megan Ellison was silent.

David Ellison added, "A lot of people in the circle are saying that Matthew Horner's selection is the same as Tom Hanks, there are uniqueness, I don't believe in Zack Schneider, but I believe in Matthew Horner, since he chose this project, he must have the confidence to succeed." ”

Megan Ellison was silent for a long time before she said, "Father said that people who have been successful in a row have a far greater chance of continuing to succeed than others. ”

"That's right. David Ellison crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Matthew on the set, "He's going to go ahead and be successful." ”

Director Zack Snyder's shout came over, "This is over! ”

"Let's go. David Ellison reminded Megan Ellison, "The next one is a passion play between the male and female protagonists, not suitable for children." ”
