Birth of an actor

"I thought we were attending a birthday party." Danny Byrne said suspiciously, turning his eyes away from a dark-haired beauty in a tight skirt.

"No, it's not." Tobey Maguire explained: "Leo's birthday is on November 11, and it has been more than half a month."

"This is a stag party to celebrate our mutual friend Leonardo DiLaprio being single again." William led the way to the boarding ladder, responding to the greetings around him while complaining to the three people behind him Said: "I called Leo on his birthday and asked him why he was so quiet this year. You all know how crazy he was playing last year. Then he told me that his birthday plan this year is to go to the Caribbean with his girlfriend for two. world, and posted a comment on how happy they were on their little island in the caribbean and didn't even want to come back to hollywood. At the time I thought he'd finally met the one, or at least this one would last longer , As a result, within half a month, everything returned to normal."

"In other words, this is also a make-up birthday party?" Danny Byrne shrugged: "I don't quite understand the meaning of the bachelor party, although it is very lively here."

"Whether it's a birthday party or a bachelor party, it's just an excuse to hold a party. Leonardo is the best actor among the actors of the [-]s. After "Titanic", the director and producer he attracted More and more, the party is becoming more and more like a social occasion, and young actors are flocking to it. Through the party dinner, Leonardo has gained a lot of network resources, unlike our 'monk', you asked me Even threw a party for you?"

Amon Goffman's eyes on William at this moment are simply accusing, and the so-called "monk" in his mouth, who else can he refer to except William?

"Hi, Will! Toby!" Leonardo DiCaprio on the deck had already seen a group of people, walking towards them with a glass of wine.

"Don't burn the fire on me." William straightened his collar, smiled at Leonardo who was not far away, and squeezed out from the corner of his mouth without leaking a trace: "Party? I just need to attend someone else's."

As William and Leonardo hug each other intimately, Tobey Maguire nods solemnly in agreement with William, Amon Goffman rolls his eyes and Danny Byrne, disappointed Mumble: "I like parties."

……

With a bang, Leonardo DiCaprio opened a bottle of beer with one hand and handed it to William, then embraced him by the shoulders, announcing excitedly as if looking for an alliance: "We Standing side by side again, Will, the most valuable golden bachelor combination in Hollywood!"

William raised Leonardo's left hand and looked at it for three seconds, only to realize that Leonardo was not so strong that he could open the bottle cap with one hand, and the finger on his left hand was not a ring, but a mini bottle opener for parties.Arm yourself with party props down to your fingertips, no wonder Amon says Leopy himself plays too much.

Leonardo glanced at William, the right corner of his mouth raised suspiciously: "What are you looking at my hands for, you want to wear a ring for me?"

William raised Leonardo's left hand to his lips, and looked at him affectionately: "I have this idea, but it's a pity that no country in the world is willing to legally recognize the taboo relationship between us."

The smirk on Leonardo's face froze, a flash of embarrassment quickly turned into dry bewilderment, as if he really believed what William said.

William dropped Leonardo's finger and finally couldn't help laughing.

Leonardo also understood that he was being teased at this time, he gritted his teeth and growled in a low voice: "Wait a minute, Will, I'm going to throw you to those supermodels, you will definitely be sucked dry by them, and Your handsome face covered with lipstick marks will definitely appear in the tabloids in the streets and alleys of the United States tomorrow morning."

"Calm down, buddy, don't be so irritable, I haven't even scratched your palm yet." William rubbed his sore stomach with a smile: "First I went to the Caribbean for vacation without saying a word on my birthday, and then suddenly recovered Single, with such a huge celebration party, it must be expensive to rent this cruise ship? I saw that the lobsters in the buffet are not small. And although it may not be obvious from the surface, but based on your reaction just now, you have a lot Strong negative emotions - I don't know who broke up with you, I can't remember the names of a lot of your girlfriends, but her departure must have a great impact on you."

"Shut up, People cover boy."

"Oh...oh." William was stunned for a second before suddenly realizing: "So you heard the radio broadcast just now? And you were so irritable just now, not because you just broke up with your girlfriend, but because you were jealous of me? Because I was in a magazine Ranked higher than you?"

Leonardo DiCaprio shrugged impassively, choosing not to answer the question.However, his eyes were indeed drifting to the right in a guilty conscience, refusing to meet William's gaze.

"What are you two discussing? The atmosphere is so weird." Tobey Maguire finished chatting with acquaintances and came over.

"Uh, we were just talking about—"

Leonardo snatched William's words at the beginning: "Will is jealous that I have such a big party and he has never had one."

"lie."

"No." Leonardo DiCaprio used his most sincere expression to persuade another friend: "Look at this cruise ship, not much smaller than the Titanic, our voyage is as long as three days, There's also a five-piece mini-band for full service, and I've ordered headless lobster and Kobe beef for you, and every party-loving Hollywood person should be jealous of my wealth."

William rolled his eyes at Leonardo, but kindly did not expose his justification.

At present, Tobey Maguire, who earns only a fraction of his friend’s salary for a film, feels sorry for Leonardo’s wallet: “Leo, you can’t waste it like this, do you know that it costs to hold such a party—— "

"Everything is free."

"What?" William & Toby & Danny.

Leonardo DiCaprio looked to enjoy the shocking effect his words had on the trio, pointing to the big letters "Motorola" painted on the hull of the cruise ship: "All expenses are sponsored. I agree with Motorola on my Advertise at the party, and they pay for my bill." Pointing to the drinks and meals on the buffet table: "These are also sponsored, and the meals come from the Hilton Hotel. As for the tequila, a local wine merchant took the initiative. I found it, their request is just to let their logo appear a few more times at this party, why should I not agree."

Leonardo tapped the place three more times, all with "sponsored" reviews, until he swung his finger over a group of bikini-clad models nearby, shrugged, and said, "They're my own." came running."

"It's just... awesome." Tobey Maguire couldn't help biting his finger and said.Was he thinking that he would be treated like this in the future?Perhaps, but that would require him to meet his own "Titanic" first.

"Leo, do you want to introduce your friend to us?" The bikini model girls began to fire at Leonardo, and although many models were talking about introductions, their eyes were fixed on William, wishing they could Immediately stick hands and feet together.

Leonardo winked at William and the others and ran over, Toby shyly followed behind, William walked slowly, and Amon Goffman leaned to his ear at this time, using Said in a not too low voice: "Nokia has approached me a long time ago, you know, they can definitely hold a bigger party for you."

Danny Byrne looked at William expectantly: "I like parties."

"Okay, okay, I can hold a party, but I have to wait for a while, when "Blood Together" is about to be released." William just thought about it briefly, and realized that sooner or later he would have to learn to be in his own He nodded in agreement and said, "We can hold a pre-movie party, maybe we can also hold a small internal preview."

……

On the other side of the deck, David Fincher and Brad Pitt were chatting.

David Fincher is one of the most popular new-generation directors in Hollywood. When he was young, he worked for Industrial Light and Magic and participated in the production of the "Star Wars" series. He left Light and Magic in 84 and became an advertising director. He has filmed music videos for Madonna and other superstars. He started to make movies in the early 90s. His debut work was "Alien 3", and his representative work was "Seven Deadly Sins" with Brad Pitt. This movie also made them famous. Become personal friends.

Brad Pitt met Leonardo DiCaprio at Martin Scorsese's party. Although the two are both Hollywood superstars, they are 11 years apart in age and have different acting styles The selection tastes are also different, so it has not become a rivalry relationship with each other - Brad Pitt's direct competitor is actually Tom Cruise, and entertainment newspapers always like to put them together no matter what selection they make Comparison, and Leonardo DiCaprio's direct competitor is actually William, but somehow the two never formed a substantial antagonistic relationship-in short, Pete and Leonardo became a good relationship The kind of acquaintances who attend each other's parties from time to time. Today, Brad Pitt first received an invitation from Leonardo DiCaprio, and then brought David Fincher over to relax.

David Fincher noticed that Brad Pitt's gaze always stayed in a certain direction after a while, he followed the other's gaze, and was a little surprised when he found out who was standing there. raised his eyebrows, and after finishing the current topic, he took the initiative to ask: "Brad, do you hate Will?"

"What?" Brad Pitt came back to his senses, immediately raised the beer bottle with his right hand and took a sip, then turned around and leaned against the railing, and said in a absent-minded voice, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Of course you know what I'm talking about, man, you hate William Bradley?" David Fincher asked again in that "I know you're lying" tone.

"...No." Brad Pitt confessed after a while of deliberation.

"Then you like him?"

Brad Pitt almost spit out the beer in his mouth, he carefully swallowed the golden liquid into his throat, and then said firmly: "No!"

"Then I really don't understand why you've been peeking at him." David Finch shrugged and said after taking a sip of beer.

Brad Pitt did not deny Finch's statement that he was looking at William Bradley, because well, he was indeed looking at him all the time, but it was not out of liking or dislike, but rather It was because he remembered the unpleasant communication the two had had, reluctantly thought that the other party might have accomplished something that he could not do, and felt the unstoppable rise of Hollywood's new generation of actors.

Of course Brad Pitt doesn't like William Bradley, and he's even a little upset with William Bradley because he once lost to him in the audition for "Meet Joe Black".Then the movie was released, and the negative news everywhere made Brad Pitt gloat for a while, and even rejoiced that he was not the one who got Joe Black in the end, but when the box office and word-of-mouth of the movie had a big reversal, he In addition to being shocked, I can't help being curious-how did William Bradley interpret the role of Joe Black?What magic did he have to bring this movie back to life?

As a professional actor who has also read the script and done in-depth research, Pete couldn't restrain his curiosity at all, so he ran to the movie theater. What is different in my own understanding, is it better or worse.Of course, he secretly went to the movie theater alone, at midnight, and he even carefully disguised himself.

The result is... better.

Brad Pitt's mood was very low when he came to such a cognition, but the fact is the fact that Joe Blackburn is not the type of role that Brad Pitt is good at, and in the end it also proved that William Bradley and this The characters fit like no other, and Universal made the right choice in the first place, damn right.So tonight, when Brad Pitt met William Bradley at Leonardo DiCaprio's party, he was in a very delicate mood, a little hostile, a little admiring, a little defiant, and also Take some interest.

Perhaps Brad Pitt's expression revealed too many thoughts, David Fincher looked at him with great interest, and suddenly said: "Although I don't know what grievances or friendship you and Will have ever had, , but seeing you look at his expression, I began to feel that the decision I made a few days ago was a genius decision."

"Oh, how talented?"

David Fincher said in a very flat tone: "I invited Will to play Jack."

Brad Pitt finally spit out the beer in his mouth: "You let him play "Fight Club"? He is my partner?!" He looked at David Fincher in disbelief and said.

Against Brad Pitt's shocked and indignant eyes, David Fincher nodded firmly, and said in a confident tone: "I can feel that there will be a chemical reaction between you."
