Leaving the media area and walking into the Emirates Rock Theater, Matthew looked at Brandon Fraser, and by the end of the interview, he noticed that Brandon Fraser's face was a little gloomy.

"I don't know anything about fashion. Matthew took the initiative to explain, "It's all about spending money to get a stylist." ”

The gloom on Brandon Frazier's face instantly dissipated, and he raised his hand and patted Matthew on the shoulder again, "Don't take the reporter's words seriously. ”

Matthew nodded in agreement, "They're all guys who want the world to be in chaos. ”

"That's right!" Brandon Fraser suddenly changed the subject, "There's an acquaintance in front, I'm going to say something." ”

Without waiting for Matthew to answer, he sped forward and quickly entered the screening room.

Watching Brandon Fraser walk away, Matthew shook his head slightly, he wasn't a fool either.

Rachel Weisz came over from behind, probably saw something, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Matthew shook his head slightly, "It's okay." ”

"Don't take it personally. Rachel Weisz said with a smile, "Brandon is a showy person who has always considered himself the boss of the cast. ”

Matthew smiled, didn't answer, and entered the screening hall with Rachel Weisz.

It probably happened that Matthew's seat was right next to director Stephen Sommers, and when he passed, Stephen Sommers was already sitting there.

"Hello, Director Sommus......" Matthew took the initiative to say hello.

Stephen Sommos nodded at him, "Long time no see, Matthew." He paused slightly, then added, "Your gym and boxing training stopped?"

"Nope. Matthew subconsciously wanted to bend his arms to show his muscles, and when he thought of a director next to him, he quickly stopped and said, "After I left the crew, I participated in "Black Hawk Down" directed by Ridley Scott, in which I played a heroic and combative Delta Force non-commissioned officer......

It occurred to him that Stephen Sommers might have an ulterior intention in asking this question, and added, "I was training in the military side during filming until I left the crew in February. When I came back, I worked out five times a week, and the same goes for my boxing training. ”

"Not bad. Stephen Sommers' words sounded meaningless, "It's good for actors, especially those who are more of an action genre." ”

Although Matthew didn't understand what Stephen Sommers meant, he followed his words and said, "I'll stick with it for a long time." ”

Pure fitness is a bit boring, but with boxing training, he can easily find fun.

Sitting here, waiting for the film to start showing, Matthew was still thinking about the meaning of Stephen Sommers's words, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't figure it out, and the movie was about to start playing, so he gave up for the time being.

The huge Chieftain Theatre was full of people, and when I looked back, the ordinary auditorium behind me was also full.

After all, this is a sequel to "The Mummy", and with the foundation of the previous work, "The Mummy Returns" can attract a large audience.

The lights on the ceiling of the screening room went out one after another, the big screen lit up, and with it came the opening credits of Universal Pictures, then the opening credits, and among the cast and crew, the name of Stephen Sommers flashed first, followed by the male and female protagonists Brandon Fraser and Rachel Weisz, and then the young actors Freddie Bush, John Hannah, Odd Fell and Arnold Vosru, and the name Matthew Horner appeared in the eighth!

Compared to the soy sauce crowd in "Soul Shifter" and the fact that names can only appear in the end credits in "Gladiator", this is definitely a huge improvement for Matthew.

The opening credits are not as simple as listing the names, the order in which the names appear, and the size of the font, etc., are closely related to the actor and the coffee position and the importance of the movie.

Matthew is well aware that with his name appearing in the opening credits, he has completed his metamorphosis from a character actor to an ordinary actor.

The next goal is to be a star.

But the distance between ordinary actors and stars is quite large, and the vast majority of Hollywood often appear in movies, can get several roles a year, and even have a familiar face in the audience, and they can't take this step in their lifetime.

This requires the ability and, above all, the right opportunities.

Matthew has no clue what he can do, all he can do is to maximize his hard power so that he can seize the opportunity when it comes.

Hollywood is extremely competitive, and most of the time, it is not the opportunity that appears in front of you, it belongs to you, which requires people to have the corresponding ability to seize the opportunity.

The film entered the feature screening, and Matthew was the first major actor to make an official appearance.

He inquired before, and the scenes where the Scorpion King appeared focused on one end and one end of the film.

In 3067 BCE, the Scorpion King led an army to conquer the world, but his ambitions were thwarted in a seven-year campaign that led to the defeat of his remnants in the Amshei Desert, where the harsh environment led to the death of his once mighty warriors one after another, and the dying Scorpion King sacrificed his soul to Anubis, the god of death, in order to defeat his enemies.

After this, the Scorpion King and the Legion of the Reaper from Hell were invincible, and the victorious Legion of the Reaper fell back to sleep.

Matthew also saw his longest exit in the film to date, opening with more than four minutes, all about his character, the only protagonist in the picture, and constantly featuring close-ups.

The purpose of this character's existence, in addition to the background introduction, is to show off his figure and skills, his figure looks quite strong in the camera, and a fight scene on the battlefield is also very brilliant after editing.

The scorpion that is swallowed in the desert at the end is the finishing touch and will leave a deep memory.

Of course, these are the thoughts of Matthew when he watches the film.

It is not yet known what the rest of the audience thinks of his character and performance.

Overall, this is a qualified entertainment film, perhaps because he saved some of the cost by starring in the Scorpion King, the special effects look pretty good, and the vivid images of Immorton, the Scorpion King and their diehard retinue are very vivid.

The Scorpion King's battle between men and beasts in Thebes City 5,000 years ago, the mummified chase on the streets of London, Immorton blowing up the river with magic to chase and kill hot air balloons, and the final scene of the scorpion king's Anubis army and the Egyptian cavalry have achieved the top in terms of the level of special effects of this era.

However, in Matthew's eyes, he is still somewhat suspicious of five-cent special effects, after all, he has experienced the era of almost crazy movie special effects bombing.

Compared with the special effects, the plot of the film can only be said to be average, and Rachel Weisz once said that the plot is not what Stephen Sommers is good at.

In this kind of typical commercial entertainment movie, the plot has never been the main selling point.

There is basically no Matthew in the middle of the film, and in the final battle, the Scorpion King appears again, but this time it is different from the human image at the beginning of the film, and the Demon Scorpion Emperor who has become a human head and a scorpion looks quite cool.

It's just that the Demon Scorpion Emperor has a powerful appearance, and his combat effectiveness doesn't show much toughness, and he soon becomes a victim of the hero.

Commercial entertainment movies, in the end, must be the end of a family reunion, where all the bad guys die and the good guys get out of danger at the last moment......

Even from Matthew's not-so-professional eyes, "The Mummy Returns" is also a large-scale industrial assembly line production that is above the level line, and the place where it should be brilliant is quite outstanding.

The lights on the ceiling turned on, the screen went dark, and the screening room burst into applause, and everyone in the crew stood up and applauded.

Matthew also stood up, turned his head and glanced back, the general audience seats were too far away to see, and the people in the guest seats in the back rows also stood up and applauded.

This kind of applause is more out of politeness than necessarily how good the film is.

Matthew, on the other hand, was clapping hard, both for watching a joyful film and for himself.

In this film, he appeared for more than ten minutes, and there were more than a dozen close-up shots alone, and Stephen Sommers completely let go of his past preconceptions and gave him enough opportunities to show his face.

I hope it can leave a deeper impression on the audience, and I hope the media can also pay more attention.

These are the things Matthew is looking forward to now, this role is already the heaviest person he has played in all the roles, and in his guess, Ridley Scott and Jerry Bruckheimer will not give him so many opportunities to show his face in the finished film of "Black Hawk Down".

Matthew suddenly felt apprehensive in his heart, this kind of thing was not under control at all.

A small actor or even an ordinary star has no right to speak in front of directors and producers.

The applause dissipated, the screening hall gradually quieted down, and some people left the ordinary audience seats in the back one after another, and no one left in front for the time being, and most of them came to the crew to congratulate them routinely.

It's also the unwritten convention of Hollywood-style movie premieres.

However, most of the guests congratulated Sean Daniel, Stephen Sommers and the hero and heroine, and Matthew was basically ignored.

"Hey, Matthew!"

Paul Walker walked over and shook Matthew's hand and said, "Well done!

He added, "It turns out that you are in such a good figure when you take off your clothes." ”

Matthew laughed and patted his arm, "Thank you!"

"Be kind to me. Paul Walker leaned over and whispered, "I heard you're in trouble with Vin Diesel again?"

Matthew said helplessly, "He took the initiative to find him, and I couldn't hide." ”

I can feel that Vin Diesel is resenting him more and more, but with his current ability and status, there is nothing he can do about Vin Diesel, you can't kill him and destroy his body, right?

After chatting with Paul Walker for a while, Matthew followed the team into the press hall under the prompting of the crew's press officer, but what he didn't expect was that the media reporters paid a lot of attention to him after watching the movie.
