Chapter 37 A rare opportunity
  While the filming of "The Last Day Out" was in full swing, the North American Film and Television Saturn Awards, founded in 1972, announced this year's nominees.

Sharknado was nominated for Best Horror Movie, and Gwyneth Paltrow was nominated for Best Young Actor.

The Saturn Awards are different from the Oscars. This is an award specifically for science fiction, fantasy, and horror films.

It's surprising to get two nominations, because Universal Pictures basically doesn't do much public relations.

And judging from the nomination list, films such as "Terminator 2", "Edward Scissorhands", and "Silence of the Lambs" are very competitive.

Little Gilbert was very happy with the nomination.

The awards will be awarded in May. At that time, in conjunction with the promotion of "Death is Coming", little Gilbert will definitely attend the Saturn Awards.

In order to discuss the Saturn Award, Gwyneth Paltrow, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, also came to visit the crew of "The Last Day Out".

"Is this your new partner?" Gwyneth Paltrow looked at Cameron Diaz who was accompanying little Gilbert with arrogant eyes, a little disdainfully.

"Hey, hey, what's that look in your eyes? Michelle is much prettier than you." Facing his ex-partner, little Gilbert naturally defended his current partner.

Gwyneth Paltrow was even more disdainful: "Johnny's one is bigger than yours."

"Johnny? Wasn't it George last time?" Little Gilbert expressed doubts.

Gwyneth Paltrow said indifferently: "George is no good, he is just a showman."

Little Gilbert was speechless. Gwyneth Paltrow played better than him. She was the play princess.

Because the two of them are so familiar with each other, these jokes can be made.

Cameron Diaz pretended to be pitiful, but she was secretly wary in her heart. She wanted to prevent Gwyneth Paltrow from resurrecting and keep her out.

As for possessing Little Gilbert alone, Cameron Diaz never thought about this. He just wanted to make Little Gilbert less of a woman.

She just wanted to give and take, and little Gilbert was the best.

"By the way, who are you going to attend the award show with?" Gwyneth Paltrow asked.

Little Gilbert clearly felt his arm tighten. It was obvious that Cameron Diaz was nervous, and the hand holding Little Gilbert's arm unconsciously tightened.

It was already decided, so there’s nothing to say about it.

"I'll bring Michelle to attend, what about you?"

Gwyneth Paltrow looked at Cameron Diaz again, curious about what ability this beauty had to be taken care of by little Gilbert.

But the two of them have nothing to do with each other now, and she can't care about it, so she nodded and said: "Just right, then I will bring Johnny to attend."

The two of them had booked partners, and Gwyneth Paltrow was not interested in staying any longer and left directly.

Today's scene ended. As usual, Cameron Diaz did not live in his own room, but slept in little Gilbert's room.

After some yoga exercise, Cameron Diaz and little Gilbert performed some new moves.

Until Cameron Diaz exhausted himself, Gilbert Jr. was still very energetic.

Cameron Diaz couldn't help but secretly cursed that little Gilbert had such good physical strength. At the same time, he was a little curious about who the man Gwyneth Paltrow said was stronger than little Gilbert.

"You are already so strong, who is stronger than you?" Cameron Diaz asked curiously.

Little Gilbert held his head in one hand and Cameron Diaz's head in the other, smelling the scent of her golden hair.

When you hear Cameron Diaz's doubts, you know that she is curious about what Gwyneth Paltrow said during the day.

"There may be, but it definitely can't be that Johnny. Gwen regrets it and wants me, the cow, to come back and eat her grass." Little Gilbert answered the question.

Hearing such an interesting metaphor, Cameron Diaz couldn't help but smile, thinking that little Gilbert was so humorous.

The filming of "Death Is Coming" started in February and is expected to be completed in mid-April. The film has reached the final shooting time.

Cameron Diaz was very curious about little Gilbert's plans next, and asked: "After "Death Comes", do you plan to continue making horror movies?" "I don't know, look at the situation of this movie. Go!" Little Gilbert thought about his ideal plan and said to Cameron Diaz: "If everything goes well, I should make a popular action movie."

Nowadays, action movies are very popular in Hollywood, and many action movie stars have been born, such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and others.

Of course, little Gilbert also wants to play one and participate in the feast of action movies in the 1990s.

This is pure commercial filmmaking, and Cameron Diaz is very interested.

"Then look, do I have a chance to star?" Cameron Diaz asked expectantly,

"You?" Little Gilbert thought for a while and said, "You are still too young and not quite suitable for the heroine. If you are willing to play a supporting role, you can still consider it."

A supporting role was also an opportunity, and Cameron Diaz agreed without much thought: "Little Gilbert, you know, as long as you ask for it, I will never refuse you."

Little Gilbert smiled and said nothing.

Now this is the idea of ​​Cameron Diaz because she has no qualifications and got the female lead position through the back door.

But if she becomes popular after "Death Is Coming", it's not certain whether she will remember today's agreement.

Even if Cameron Diaz wants to abide by today's agreement, the agent behind her will not agree.

It is very difficult to go back to eating bran-fed vegetables after eating good food.

But who can say for sure what will happen in the future? If "Death Comes" hits the streets, there is no need to think about the next movie.

After more than two months of hard work, the film "Death Comes" was finally completed in a small town near Santa Monica.

Little Gilbert, who didn't pay much attention to the closing party, simply held a party with the crew, announced the disbandment of the crew, and hurried back to the post-production editing room of Touchstone Pictures.

The movie "The God of Death" is a horror story about how the King of Hell wants people to die at the third watch, but who dares to keep people until the fifth watch.

This film was placed eight years later in the new millennium, and its creative setting is considered unusual, let alone in this day and age.

In fact, there is another horror film called "Scream" that is somewhat close to the setting of "Dead Man".

Director Huang Yiyu was inspired by watching this film and adapted the script of "The God of Death" into that look.

But unfortunately, "Scream", a classic youth horror film, was released in 1996.

Therefore, the setting of "Death is Coming" is definitely unique to Hollywood and very eye-catching.

However, major Hollywood film companies receive a lot of creative scripts every year, but very few of them are actually put into filming.

Hollywood has never lacked creativity. What it lacks is talents who can turn ideas into reality and a heart that dares to try.

Often only when someone tries and succeeds, other film companies will follow suit and join in. A large number of similar films consume the potential of this genre.

It can also be understood that the film industry itself is a gamble. Before the film is released, it is in a quantum state of success and failure.

Investments of tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars often make film companies careless.

Therefore, many people's dream of impressing film companies with a creative and excellent script is basically a fantasy, and the possibility of success is infinitely close to zero.

Even when Gilbert Jr. got the opportunity to direct, he only got it because of Spielberg's relationship.

Universal Pictures is very careful and cautious, for fear that little Gilbert will mess up the project.

Because of the success of "Shark Beach", little Gilbert had the capital to direct his second film.

Until now, there are still rumors outside that little Gilbert is Spielberg's illegitimate son!

This shows how rare opportunities are in Hollywood. If you can't grasp it, it's time to jump off the building.
