Chapter 576: Introduction
After Thanksgiving passed, the last month of 07 came immediately, and more movies have been released one after another, and there will never be less such things as competing for the box office in the two major schedules.
And "Iron Man", which is a collaboration between Reincarnation Pictures and Marvel Comics, was also chosen at this time to prepare to land in theaters, which is a tense moment for the producers.
Especially Amazement, they gave up almost everything, and if "Iron Man" can't succeed and can't achieve the set goal, it will be a heavy blow.
But they still have some confidence, and this confidence comes from the big sales of "Twilight", to be exact, from Sean, who took a fancy to "Twilight" and pushed for making it into a movie.
The youth idol movie, which invested only more than 30 million, broke 100 million in North America in just two weeks, which is no longer a big profit, but a big profit. And not only did the production and distribution of Reincarnation Pictures make money with Tang Pictures, the two starring Talissa? Palmer and Henry? Cavill has also quickly become the idol of a new generation in the hearts of teenagers, and the original novel has been quickly reprinted, and sales have exploded.
In the face of such an achievement, no matter how much uneasiness there is in Amaze's heart, he can only calm down and believe that since Sean thinks "Iron Man" is very good, it must be very good, anyway...... The premiere is already in sight.
However, although they were nervous and excited in anticipation, they didn't know that Sean, who was named as a producer in "Iron Man" and was definitely going to attend the premiere, was not in such a good mood.
He's still upset, Natalie's business isn't over yet, new problems are coming, and they're even more of a headache. After Thanksgiving, Liana's words kept bothering him and made him a little sleepless.
It is indeed very simple to scrape a cotton swab in the mouth to extract cells for DNA identification, but for Sean, it is no less than putting a thunderbolt in his ears. Especially after returning from San Francisco, after he looked up the information about DNA identification in detail, all he wanted to do was keep scratching his head.
When Kate asked him to scrape the inside of his mouth with a cotton swab, he didn't mean to ask at all, since Kate asked him to do it without telling him why, there was always a reason to do it. Moreover, he did owe her a lot, and as long as it was a reasonable request, he would meet it.
It's just that Sean never expected that Kate would ask for this...... There was no doubt about it, as could be seen from the way she treated him and Dashiel twice. On the set of "Babel", she was always worried that he had too much contact with Dashiel, but on the set of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", she encouraged Dashir to contact him, which only shows one thing.
But what made him even more alarmed was that Kate let his second son Roma also have intimate contact with him, which means that Sean really doesn't dare to judge, because it's too exaggerated.
But the problem is that he can't ask Kate for confirmation, and although he went to the set of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" for a few days after Thanksgiving, Kate has been absent and seems to be on a shooting trip with another group. However, even if she is on the set, Sean probably doesn't know what to do, so it's not good to go directly to her and ask: Are your two children mine?
This incident, coupled with the Natalie incident, no one can explain - Kate must not be able to tell anyone, even if Vladimir knows that they are keeping an affair underground, the same is true of Natalie's matter, only Emma knows, and no one else can tell either. Once these things have been held in his heart for a long time, he really wants to know the result, so you can imagine how bad his mood is.
Although there was a lot of good news during this time, it was not enough for Sean to be relieved, especially ...... Physiologically. Fortunately, at this time, the premiere of "Iron Man", if one way doesn't work, then use another way, and it won't be so much at this time.
"Hey, Harvey, how's it going?" From afar, Sean began to say hello.
"Very good, glad you can help." Weinstein responded with a smile, then looked at the young girl next to him, "This is?" ”
It was a girl who looked slightly smaller than Sean, with long light hair, and a gray thin-shouldered dress and a narrow skirt, charming and sexy, and quite a beautiful and lovely person.
"Let me introduce, this is Abby, Abby? Kaunish, from New South Wales, Australia, I found it so easily, Pepper for Iron Man. Sean introduced the girl to him with a smile, "Abby, this is Harvey, Harvey?" Weinstein, Hollywood's greatest independent filmmaker. ”
"I can't compare to you, Sean, at least the script you fancy has almost never failed." Weinstein gave him a small handshake, shook the girl's hand, and immediately pulled it back.
From Sean's hand around her waist, you can know that their relationship must be unusual, and Weinstein is happy to help say a few nice words at this time.
"That's because I don't have many scripts in my eye, if I can still discover a script like "Child Abuse Suspicion" at your age, then I can really be proud." Sean shrugged his shoulders, then added, "I believe you should have gotten it, right?" ”
"Of course, with your help, of course I got it," Weinstein laughed, "Philip and Meryl play the male and female leads, and the film will be on soon." ”
"So, what about Leighton?" Sean then asked with an eyebrow raised.
"Nice, too, the girl you recommended, Lyton? Mester," Weinstein gave a quick glance at Abby beside him, and then quickly continued, "and in Gossip Girl, even John?" Patrick? Stanley was surprised. ”
Sean's vision is now well-known in Hollywood, and he has a good relationship with Hoffman, and Weinstein promised to try to invite Meryl? Streep as the lead actress - no doubt the number of nominations is almost catching up with Catherine? Hepburn's Aunt May is the best candidate for this old virgin role.
Under these advantages, Weinstein Pictures successfully won the film rights to this Pulitzer Prize-winning and Tony Award-winning screenplay, and of course, Sean did not forget to stuff some private goods into it, to Leighton? Mestre won the role of the young nun.
What he promised to do must be done, these are the few rules that Sean has set for himself, although it is just a deal with Leighton, although it is the norm to pull birds ruthlessly in Hollywood, Sean still can't do it if he asks himself.
In fact, he originally wanted Blake to try it, but her image is too different from the image of the script, her hair will not look good if it is dyed deeply, and it lacks some classical temperament - although "Child Abuse Suspicion" is about the 60s of the last century, it is different from the current one from the costume to the style.
So after thinking about it for a long time, Sean still chose Lytton, and Leighton was also quite competitive, and made detailed preparations under Sean's repeated advice, although he didn't go to see it during the audition, but since it passed, now Weinstein said that director Stanley was surprised, then her performance must be very good.
Of course, as for the effort she put in under Sean in bed, it is not enough to be an outsider.
It's just that then again, a good movie was arranged for Leighton, so Blake's side can't be less, after all, she has to make a deal earlier than Leighton, and if you think that Sean favors one over the other, it will be a little unbeautiful, and Sean plans to enjoy her a few more times.
It's not easy to get a proper movie, so Sean is just thinking about it now, anyway, as long as there are results before the release of "Child Abuse Suspicion", and Leighton has to show off in front of Blake, Sean may have a windfall at that time.
Don't mention this, back to the premiere, the reason why Sean mentioned this matter in front of Weinstein was of course not because he really wanted to know about Leighton's recent situation, and Weinstein also knew this, so he cooperated with two compliments.
Then, the two chatted a few more words, and Weinstein took his leave.
"Harvey is a very interesting guy, sometimes you think he's just a money-eyed jerk, but he's actually a shrewd producer; Sometimes you think he's a fat guy who doesn't know what to call a fat man, but in fact he's watching people every minute. Sean turned his head and said to Abby beside him, which was quite instructive.
"It's really funny." The pretty girl nodded, leaning on him a little tighter.
There is no doubt that she knows his intentions and is willing to cooperate, which is very eye-catching, isn't she?
When choosing the role of Pepper for "Iron Man", Sean didn't want to follow the original trajectory and invite Gwyneth, so he spent a lot of effort on the selection, and when Abby appeared, he fell in love with her at first sight. After that, there was not much difference from Blake, Telisa, and Leighton, and they asked out to talk, and then brought back to the hotel, and then the role was hers.
Admittedly, Abby? Kaunish is a sexy and beautiful girl, but Sean has a crush on her for another reason.
"Hey, Sean, I didn't expect you to be here, I thought you'd be in." When Sean put his arm around Abby and talked to several producers and directors, a woman appeared in front of him.
Her blonde hair hung down in her signature curls, she was dressed in a white dress-like women's suit, her gray-blue eyes, and her figure was just right, although she was much older than Abby, she was not at all too sexy and seductive.
"Why, I'm calling you personally and inviting you to the premiere, and I won't go in until I see you." Sean stretched out his finger and shook it, then started the introduction again, "Abby, this is Nicole, Nicole?" Kidman, one of Hollywood's finest actresses, is also Australia's brightest star. Nicole, this is Abby, another promising rising star from Australia. ”
"Hello, Nicole, it's a pleasure to meet you." Abby held out her hand and lowered her posture.
"I'm glad to meet you, Abby, too." Nicole also said with a smile on her face.
It's just that although the two women seem to have a harmonious atmosphere, when their eyes meet, there are faint sparks.
