Hollywood starts with a broker

In England, at Buckingham, with the imminent start of filming for "Four Weddings and a Funeral," Aaron made a special trip from the United States;

After all, it was the first production of Dawn UK Film Company, and Aaron valued it greatly!

The film's producers, Graham Broadbent and Richard Curtis, director Mike Newell, and lead actors Hugh Grant and Sophie Marceau, among others, gathered together;

Meanwhile, Stephen Woolley, the producer of "The Crying Game," director Neil Jordan, and main cast members Forest Whitaker, Miranda Richardson, Stephen Rea, and Jaye Davidson also attended the banquet hosted by Dawn.

Sophie Marceau hooked her arm through Aaron's, "I thought you weren't coming to England."

"It's Dawn's first UK film investment and production, of course, I had to come and see!"

Aaron said, kissing the lady directly on the face, his gaze directed towards the new actor Jaye Davidson from "The Crying Game."

"No wonder they were looking for him to play the transvestite character in the play; he really is suitable!"

Although of Black descent, his appearance really had feminine qualities.

Sophie Marceau nodded, "I haven't seen this 'The Crying Game' yet, and it's about transgender people, it should be interesting."

Aaron smiled, "The theme is roughly a political thriller and a love story, a double crisis of political identity and sexual identity;"

"The director examines life and death, sex and friendship, responsibility and loyalty, freedom and bondage, masculinity and femininity, and various sharp issues in between through the film;"

"The highlight of the film is definitely the reversal of the identity revealed later, but this is also the controversy of the film."

After a while, Aaron chatted with Stephen Woolley, the producer of "The Crying Game," "I heard you almost went bankrupt to shoot this film?"

Stephen Woolley spread his hands, "The UK's Channel Four and Japanese investment were not enough for me to support the completion of the film;"

"My company also runs two small theaters in London. This film really made me financially ruined;"

"However, fortunately, the finished film is good. At least there are American distributors who are optimistic, aren't there?"

Stephen Woolley said with a smile, after all, the sale of North American distribution rights had already earned him a lot!

Aaron nodded, "It's pretty good, the combination of politics and transgender love, the film's concept is extraordinary;"

"Although highly controversial, it will definitely be favored by film critics and academy judges."

Nothing else, this kind of thing itself belongs to the category of political correctness.

Then, he patted the other person's shoulder, "When the time comes, as long as there is a performance at the Oscars, the main creators of 'The Crying Game' will definitely receive the honor and benefits they deserve."

At least, these people will attract Hollywood's attention, which is of great benefit to their careers!

After chatting with Stephen Woolley, Hugh Grant and his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley specifically came over to have a drink with Aaron.

"Thank you, Aaron!"

Hugh Grant thanked Aaron because the other party had personally appointed him as the male lead, and now "Sleepless in Seattle" was still being shown with great popularity;

Aaron Anderson's optimistic romantic comedy was very promising.

Aaron smiled, "You're suitable anyway. There aren't many new generation male actors in the UK right now, you have a lot of opportunities!"

"Haha, thank you for your kind words."

Hugh Grant said, looking at his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley, "Honey, I'm going to the bathroom. Didn't you have something to ask Aaron?"

"Now, the opportunity has come!"

"Aaron, it's nice to see you again," Elizabeth Hurley hugged the other person.

"Yes, you're still so sexy and beautiful!"

Aaron gave the other person a cheek kiss.

Elizabeth Hurley took the opportunity to tap Aaron's palm with her fingers, smiling, "Aaron, I don't seem to see Catherine Zeta-Jones, do you still keep in touch?"

Aaron smiled, "She's been doing some training recently. Next, there might be a movie to star in!"

Elizabeth Hurley was stunned for a moment, biting her lower lip, "Is it a Hollywood movie starring as the female lead?"

Aaron nodded imperceptibly, "If there are no accidents, it will be."

"Then, Aaron, can you tell me about it?"

Aaron thought for a while and said, "A Western adventure action film directed by Ridley Scott, adapted from the story of Zorro!"

Anyway, the movie has already been approved and is currently in preparation, it's not a secret.

"Really?" Elizabeth Hurley suddenly felt a sense of envy.

"I also filmed my first Hollywood work earlier this year, a Warner Bros. action film 'Passenger 57';"

"The male lead is Black star Wesley Snipes, a story about a plane hijacking in the sky;"

"It's somewhat similar to 'Die Hard'!"

Aaron understood, "Oh, is this what you wanted to ask me just now?"

"Yes, because this is my first time filming a Hollywood movie."

"That's good, action movies are still very popular in Hollywood now. Dawn is also filming a road action film 'Speed', with a production budget exceeding 30 million US dollars!"

Elizabeth Hurley shook her head, "The budget for 'Passenger 57' is only 15 million US dollars. Because the budget is very limited, many scenes are very difficult to shoot;"

"Moreover, my role is just a female villain in the movie, the hijacker's deputy, pretending to be a flight attendant to assist the hijacking!"

Elizabeth Hurley understood that her role belonged to an embellishment in the movie, a sexy woman needed among a group of men;

Although there were some action scenes, she was actually just a vase in the movie, and she didn't appear that much.

Aaron looked at Elizabeth Hurley in front of him again, tall, sexy, with a dual sense of wildness and elegance!

"Perhaps after the movie is released, the sexy flight attendant you play will leave an impression on the audience;"

"After all, a woman like you always has a fatal attraction to men."

Aaron comforted her casually, after all, listening to Elizabeth Hurley's introduction, this so-called 'Passenger 57' was a low-budget, shoddy work imitating 'Die Hard';

I simply couldn't understand why it would succeed. Black male lead movies aren't very popular now!

Dawn's "Boyz n the Hood," released last year, grossed $57 million, which is about the highest grossing film with a Black male lead to date.

Elizabeth Hurley smiled, "Aaron, can someone like me also attract a man like you...?"
