"I specifically asked someone to inquire, what did this crew say?"

On the car to the Gray Film and Television Center, Nicholson had a strange face and said to Leonardo next to him: "There are many things to do, and they are wonderful!" ”

Leonardo has a deep understanding of this: "Martin's crew, how can it be quiet? But then again, it's the news that makes the news. ”

Nicholson said: "I don't know who went crazy first, Martin or Bale. ”

Leonardo disagreed: "You think that bastard is going crazy? ”

When the car arrived at the main entrance of the Gray Film and Television Production Center, Nolan and Emma Thomas had already released the news that Nicholson was coming to visit the crew, and at this moment there were not only local media reporters in Atlanta, but also reporters from entertainment media distributed throughout the United States.

As soon as Nicholson got out of the car, these people gathered around.

"Jack, are you coming to visit Martin?"

"You've reconciled with Martin?"

"Or are you going to settle accounts with Martin in person?" 、

Nicholson, wearing sunglasses and putting his hands in his pockets, said in a big man's style: "I came because of the invitation of Warner and DC, and I felt that something was wrong with the new Joker, so they asked me for help." ”

A reporter from Vanity Fair reacted super quickly: "Do you still think Martin Davis is up to the task?" ”

Nicholson snorted coldly, too lazy to answer such an idiotic question.

The security guards on the set came over to separate the reporters, allowing Nicholson and Leonardo to enter the door.

Someone greeted them at the door and led them to the studio where the Dark Knight crew was located.

The crew had just finished filming the scene between Batman and Butler Alfred, and Nicholson didn't see Martin's Joker.

Taking advantage of the gap between filming, DC director Orlin led Nicholson and Leonardo to director Nolan.

Nolan shook hands with the two and said to Leonardo, "I thought about inviting you to play Two-Face, but the invitation was not answered. ”

Leonardo didn't care much about the British director's thoughts, and said directly: "Because superhero movies are not in my consideration." ”

Nolan was not embarrassed and smiled: "It seems that I was presumptuous." ”

Nicholson looked around and asked, "Why didn't you see Martin?" ”

"Martin was very involved in the play, and after the performance in the morning, he went back to rest." Nolan is telling the truth later, but telling the truth may also have ulterior motives: "His performance is amazing, and I always felt that the clown lived in this crew." ”

Nicholson frowned: "It's that good. ”

Nolan continued to irritate: "Martin is the clown I wanted. ”

Nicholson curled the corners of his mouth, as if in disbelief.

Nolan was casual: "You'll find out when you see Martin's performance." ”

Nicholson nodded: "I'll appreciate it." ”

Leonardo stood aside, like a crowd eating melons, looking at the two men and listening to their words.

Martin is not the only interesting person in this crew!

No wonder when he talked to Martin on the phone, he said that this crew is very fun, and the director is playing tricks, can it be fun?

Nolan still has work to do, and after a short chat, he returns to the director's monitor.

Nicholson, however, noticed that someone next to him was remembering something and asked, "What do you do?" ”

The screenwriter hurriedly said: "I am a screenwriter, and I am responsible for recording the real tidbits of the crew. ”

Orlin took over: "This is a new way of working on the set adopted by director Nolan, allowing the screenwriter to faithfully record the interesting things that happened on the set and during the shooting, which is conducive to publicity in the later stage. ”

Nicholson, who is more familiar with the people in DC, asked unceremoniously, "Can I take a look?" ”

The screenwriter was supposed to keep Nolan here on purpose, and even if Nicholson didn't ask, Orlin would let him see the real record of the tidbits about Martin: "No problem. ”

Nicholson took the script from the screenwriter and read it carefully, the most recent one is that in yesterday's shooting, Martin saved the crew from a large explosion scene with a very brilliant improvisation.

Looking further up, Martin's performance is too realistic, which leads to grievances between the characters and affects the relationship between the two leading actors in reality.

and Martin's crazy performance on the set, which scared Maggie Gyllenshill, who played with him for the first time, and made the veteran British actor Michael Kane forget his words.

Even many actors said that when Martin was on the set and laughed like crazy, the powerful aura of wanton and reckless behavior was as if a real clown was right in front of them.

Still expressionless, Nicholson returned the script to the screenwriter and stood right there, watching another scene between Bale and Michael Kane before coming out of the studio.

When he came to a place where no one was, Leonardo couldn't hold back anymore and laughed: "This crew is so interesting!" ”

Nicholson nodded: "Sure enough, where there is Martin, there are fun things to do." ”

Leonardo specifically reminded: "That director seems to be praising Martin, but in fact he wants to provoke your relationship with Martin." ”

Nicholson also saw it, and experienced the first stage of the war of words with Martin, and had some speculation: "I probably want me and Martin to continue to fight, so that I can continue to make a fuss about the publicity and hype of the film." ”

Leonardo exclaimed: "This director has something, and he is a perfect match for Martin." ”

"That screenwriter and script should have been deliberately made for me to read." Nicholson has been in Hollywood all his life, and if you really want to talk about brains and the like, the three Marlon Brandos can't be compared combined.

He hit the nail on the head: "The Martin in the script is full of good things such as outstanding acting skills, too deep into the play, and terrifying characters, and it is estimated that the core of the publicity of this crew and actors is Martin." ”

Leonardo said: "Martin is so good at doing things, and if you do it, there will be news." ”

In the distance, the doors of a makeup trailer opened, revealing an actor with oil paint on his face.

The man leaned forward, his face covered in white oil paint, a blood-red mouth cracked, and he staggered as he walked.

A few young actresses came over, and this person grinned, and the people who were talking and laughing were instantly silenced and hid away as if they had encountered a perverted murderer.

It is impossible for the bastard trio to mistake their own members, and despite the drastic change in appearance and temperament, Leonardo recognized Martin and said, "It seems to be completely different from your clown." ”

Nicholson looked over there: "If he plays my style, I'm going to spray him to doubt life." ”

Seeing Martin enter the studio from afar, he beckoned: "I guess there is his play, let's go and see it." ”

The studio door was open, which meant that the crew was not currently filming, and Leonardo and Nicholson went in together and found an inconspicuous corner to watch the crew shoot.

It's a scene where the Joker goes head-to-head with Batman.

Born as a child star, Bell, who has been playing the protagonist of movies since 1987, was suppressed by Martin throughout the process.

Not to mention insiders like Nicholson and Leonardo, even those extras can see that Martin plays the Joker much better than Batman.

The clown is evil, cunning, arrogant, and almost insane, and his behavior is unbelievable, but it makes people feel terrifying.

On the other hand, Batman on the other side has only anger and violence.

Two roles, two actors, high judgment.

Nicholson can be said to be the top acting school in Hollywood, and it is not difficult to make a judgment, there must be differences in roles.

The design and positioning of the character of the Joker in the script is better than that of Batman.

Martin's bastard's acting skills should not be overlooked.

The director shouted a stop, and Leonardo whispered: "Martin was originally a bastard and a pervert, and now he belongs to the true colors." ”

"He's a pervert!" Nicholson thought so: "Isn't it a pervert who can kick the ass of an old man who is nearly 70 years old? ”

Filming continued, and both men closed their mouths at the same time.

In order to play the Joker, Nicholson looked through a lot of related DC Comics, and it was inevitable that the virtual and the real would be compared in his mind, and he found that the character created by Martin was a step further than the Joker in any comics.

At the end of the day's shooting, Martin didn't rush to remove his makeup, he saw Nicholson and Leonardo between shoots and looked for them.

He hugged Leonardo: "You should come early or come late, there is a good show to watch." ”

Leonardo asked, "Look at how you pervert scourge the crew?" ”

Martin punched him: "Come early and set off fireworks together." He looked at Nicholson, "How's this clown character?" Do you choose to continue the war of words, or to ease the relationship a little? ”

"The director of the crew wants to provoke me to continue the verbal fight with you, why should I go at his pace?" Nicholson looked at Nolan in the distance: "I'm not a marionette in his hands. ”

Martin understood what he meant: "So let's ease things up a bit?" ”

"I'm not going to be as sharp as I was before, let's really reconcile until next year," Nicholson said. ”

Leonardo shook his head: "It's like you two have an adulterous affair." ”

Not far away, Nolan, who was packing up his belongings, watched the bastard trio talk and discuss in the corner, with a particular focus on Martin and Nicholson.

The screenwriter, whose sense of smell became more and more acute and gradually developed a super consciousness, rushed to the vicinity early to get ready.

He grabbed the notebook in one hand and the pen in the other, waiting for the director's great summoning at any time.

Nolan was surprised that Martin and Nicholson didn't quarrel? It wasn't in his plans.

Could it be that the dispute between the two is just due to the role, and there is not much of a problem between the individuals?

Nicholson came to the crew today, watched Martin's performance and the filming of the role, and recognized the role of the Joker?

Although unexpected, this small problem is not difficult for director Nolanda, who is good at making real tidbits.

He beckoned, and the screenwriter immediately ran over: "Director? ”

"Write it down for now, and use it as a draft for now." Nolan's inspiration exploded: "Nicholson accepted the invitation of Warner and DC to visit the crew, and after seeing Martin's role with his own eyes, he was impressed by his extremely superb performance, thinking that it was a shocking role, and the conflict between him and Martin was also eased. ”
