Made in Hollywood

The aura of an actor is never innate, but has to be professionally packaged and trained, precipitated by many factors such as time, acting skills, status, and fame, just like more than a decade ago, no one would I think Charlize Theron has a strong aura and can give the character that invisible and intangible temperament. ￥f,

Don't say that the aura is not important, the aura given to a role by an actor is enough to dominate the film.

Although she won the Oscar for Best Actress with "The Devil's Head" and stood firmly in the ranks of Hollywood's first-line actresses, Charlize Theron is actually taking the vase route no matter it was once or now.

Even in Hollywood today, special effects are becoming more and more important for movies, and the appeal of superstars is declining, but Charlize Theron has reached the current position, and there are actually enough characters to choose from, and there are many projects. First of all The actor candidates considered are also star actors.

It is no exaggeration to say that in a certain period of time, there are more than a dozen roles for Hollywood superstars to choose.

Throwing scripts and characters will make first-line stars eager for it, just like a screenwriter throwing out an original script, Hollywood companies will be just as unreliable.

Duke has never been an actor without choosing, and by the same token, Hollywood superstars will never have to be a director...

For example, Leonardo DiCaprio, everyone knows that he is hugging Martin Scorsese's thigh, but he is also starring in other directors' films.

However, the superstar and famous cast will attract more media and public attention.

In fact, Duke knew very well that Charlize Theronken promised to lower the pay for starring. One is that his films are almost box office bombs, and the other is that the character that subverts the image will make her tear off the label of the vase again.

And this role does not need to be ugly like the devil, just a subversive performance is enough.

After all. An actor needs to keep his position in the front line, and to go further, it is not enough to rely on charity or fashion style, and even to win the Oscars is not enough. The most important thing is business performance.

If you want filmmakers to willingly offer 20 million dollars in remuneration, they must show their box office appeal.

This $20 million is never as simple as money. It is also a symbol of status and status.

Like Will Smith, Johnny Depp, and Tom Cruise, the statuettes who have never won any performance awards, but will anyone deny their superstar status? Actors like Daniel Day Lewis, Jeff Bridges, etc. who have won the statuette but have not proven themselves in the market, even if they are their fans, how many people think they are superstars?

Don't say that the acting skills are outstanding enough to be aloof, everyone knows that Hollywood is a business circle.

For example, a director like Frank Darabont, who produced "The Redemption of Shawshank", could not redeem his career as a director, let alone ordinary fans. In the Hollywood circle, he was almost completely forgotten by the producers.

Perhaps this idea is very utilitarian, and some people have criticized Duke for being too utilitarian and never knowing what art is.

But don't forget, this is the United States, a highly commercialized society; this is Hollywood, a very realistic vanity fair.

If you just hold on to art and an extremely naive script that can kill Hollywood companies and talents, you should be appreciated and able to get ahead. It will only be swallowed by this fiercely fierce battle and competition, and even the scum will not be left.

Go see the famous directors in Hollywood. Which one was not rushed out of compromise and struggle? Characters like Spielberg have also been strangled by Hollywood's own dream factory.

The script and character setting of the new project were delivered to Charlize Theron long ago. Duke returned to Los Angeles. He wanted to let Tom Cruise talk, but he received an invitation to the party.

"Tom is going to reveal the image of their little princess."

Upon receiving the invitation letter, Duke quickly guessed the true purpose of the party. A child born in a star family is a kind of luck and misfortune.

She is destined to be born with material treatment that others can't enjoy, but she has to grow up under the watchful eyes of the media and paparazzi...

Although the law protects the rights and interests of various minors, we want paparazzi to fully comply with the law. That is not realistic.

Duke did not expect that because of his entanglement with Tom Cruise, Liang Tang finally reached this stage with Nicole Kidman, not only did not divorce, but also had a child.

And Duke has received some gossip that Tom Cruise has hardly participated in the activities of Scientology for more than a year and seems to want to leave.

It's just that Scientology definitely doesn't want their signs to attract believers to leave like this.

Rolls-Royce drove into Beverly Hills and rounded the southern hillside where the rich and celebrities gather. Tom Cruise’s mansion is located on the edge of the famous Hearst Manor. Since working with "Chicago", Duke has also Be regarded as a frequent visitor here.

The car stopped at the door, and someone immediately came over and opened the door. Duke slightly adjusted his suit, got out of the car, and walked into Cruise's mansion under the light of countless flashing lights.

News like Tom Cruise and his wife Tim Ding can’t be kept secret at all. The photo of the little princess is also the subject of high-priced rewards from many media.

This is a very personal party. Those who can be invited by Tom Cruise are people who have a good relationship with him.

"Congratulations, Tom."

Entering the banquet hall, Duke gave a gentle hug before Tom Cruise, and then asked, "Where is our princess?"

Hearing Duke's joking remark, Tom Cruise couldn't help laughing and leading the way, "Here."

Under the leadership of Tom Cruise, Duke came to a corner of the banquet hall, where many people, especially some women, gathered around a baby cradle.

"Hi, Nicole."

Seeing the tall woman standing by the cradle, Duke once again gave a hug, "Congratulations."

"Thank you." Nicole Kidman was obviously in a very good mood.

The other people should be friends of Nicole Kidman. Seeing Duke coming over, he quietly stepped aside. Duke stood by the cradle and bent over to look at the little baby inside, a little one who was only a few months old. With blue eyes similar to his mother, he was looking at him curiously at the moment.

"Hi, dear." Duke grabbed her little hand and shook it. "My name is Duke, how about you?"

Of course the little guy would not answer, Nicole Kidman said next to her, "She's Suri, Suri Kidman Cruise."

"Suri?" Duke's eyes turned to Cruise on the other side, "Tom, isn't this your masterpiece?"

Tom Cruise nodded and said, "Of course, this is my name."

With these years of cooperation, Tom Cruise's relationship with Duke has also deepened, and he said unceremoniously, "I have discussed with Mary and I want you to be Suri's godfather."

Just the godfather, Duke pondered for a few seconds, then agreed, "No problem."

Today's godfather is not what he was in the beginning, but more like a symbol.

When Duke released the little guy's hand and stood up, Nicole Kidman added, "Suri will be very happy to have a godfather like you."

Who knew that as soon as she finished speaking, Suri Cruise broke out in a loud voice and started to cry.

Duke and Tom Cruise couldn't help laughing at the same time, and when Nicole Kidman pushed her away, they walked to the other side together.

"No work plan recently?" Duke said as he walked.

Tom Cruise shook his head, "My main job now is to be with my family."

"It seems that Mary would welcome me." Duke took two cups of soda from the passing waitress, handed one to Tom Cruise, raised the glass to him, and said before drinking. Remember the cooperation we talked about last year?"

"So does your new project have a role for me?" Tom Cruise's eyes lit up immediately.

Although other films have achieved good results, his most popular is the "Mission Impossible" series. No actor wants to tie his career and career to only one series of movies, and he is no exception.

Tom Cruise looked at the place where the agent gathered in the banquet hall and said, "I believe Pat will not stop me from taking your movie."

After taking a sip of soda, Duke patted his arm lightly, and said, "I will let someone send the script as soon as possible, and let people talk to Pat about the relevant terms."

"I am looking forward to working with you again." Tom Cruise stretched out his hand, and Duke patted it, "Me too."

Duke looked at the entrance of the banquet hall where another guest came in, and said, "I won't delay your entertaining guests."

As he said, he walked to the rest table alone, found a place to sit down, and just drank the soda in the cup, someone came over to say hello.

"Hey, Duke, long time no see."

"Hi, Pat."

Duke stood up and shook her hand, motioned to the opposite seat, "Sit down."

Pat Kingsley pulled out the chair and sat across from him. Of course, this female agent of Hollywood and Nancy Josephson's famous name came to him not to chat.

"I just heard Tom mentioned that you invited him to join your new project?" she asked.

"Yes." Duke nodded slightly.

Pat Kinsli smiled slightly and said, "I have been looking forward to your cooperation again."

Duke also smiled, but didn't say anything. He believed that Pat? Kinsley came here specifically, not just for this.

"I heard that Nancy's im is digging people everywhere." Pat Kingsley didn't go around very much, lowered her voice slightly, and said directly, "Duke, Leonardo DiCaprio is your friend. Don't you want him to join im?" (to be continued...)
