Birth of an actor

On Halloween, many Hollywood stars, singers and socialites dressed up in Manhattan, New York.

The income disparity in New York City is sometimes manifested in a vertical manner. The streets of Manhattan are among the most expensive in the world. Even Wall Street elites with high incomes have to rush around crowded subway stations, sidewalks and forced labor all day long. narrow rental housing, while the wealthiest few can stay in purpose-built penthouses, rooftop gardens, and rooftop swimming pools—in fact, top-floor gyms, bars, helipads, and golf courses. On the most precious land in the world, some high-altitude scenery is not easily seen by people living on the street. This is the invisible class pyramid in New York.

The venue tonight's party is obviously such a "paradise in the sky" that ordinary people can't easily see. Leonardo DiCaprio generously opened up his penthouse in lower Manhattan to host his launch event. The Halloween party - this is a ten-story apartment building, the entire ten floors and the roof belong to Leonardo, as early as a week ago, Leonardo hired a party planner to start decorating here, and now Security personnel and dedicated cocktail bartenders have also settled in. After the party starts, well-known resident DJs in boxer shorts will play all kinds of explosive music to keep the atmosphere alive forever.

Of course, Leonardo, who has already started to be enthusiastic about environmental protection, did not forget to give the party a charitable halo. The theme of the party is environmental protection, and there will be a donation link. All donations will be donated to non-profit environmental protection organizations And animal protection agencies, for natural ecology and elephant protection.

Hollywood's first-line stars will more or less participate in some charitable activities, in order to establish a good personal image, or out of tax avoidance considerations.Environmental protection, animal protection, child protection, or against school bullying, helping AIDS patients, etc., some people go through the motions as public relations, while others do it as a second career.

William also does charity, although the media rarely reports on this, and he has never actively promoted it.He focuses on the hunger, disease and schooling of children in poor areas of third world countries. He also donates a large sum of money to at least five areas every year, some directly donating property, some through third-party non-profit charities, and In order to ensure that all the money is actually spent, the foundation under William’s name indicates the terms when donating, saying that it will investigate the whereabouts and use of each sum of money from time to time. If the other party does not agree with the terms of the investigation, the donation will be suspended. Then select another region.

When William and Lance entered the apartment building, they saw specially placed posters on environmental protection in the lobby, as well as the contact numbers of some environmental protection agencies, which made people mistakenly think that a forum lecture on earth protection was being held on the roof of the building. But when the elevator stopped on the tenth floor, when the elevator door opened, countless "demons and ghosts" broke into the sight, which proved that the protagonist of tonight's party was still Halloween.

The ones that William can recognize include werewolves, chainsaws, Grim Reaper, zombie brides, "The Shining" blue-dress sisters and other horror-oriented ones, as well as Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, Alice, Mermaid, Mad Hatter and so on. For fairy tales, not to mention superheroes such as Spiderman, Superman, Batman, and Wolverine, but also legendary figures such as Lincoln, Washington, Cleopatra, Marilyn Monroe, and tree people, bees, butterflies, etc. Those that fit the theme of environmental protection and nature, but the most repeated ones are the most popular ones.

——The most popular costumes for Halloween every year are closely related to the most popular movies of the year, and this year is no exception. According to media reports, Spiderman, wizard, elf, Jedi knights, Disney princesses and vampires, most of them from the hit movies of the past few months.

"I think I misunderstood you, Will." Lance withdrew his gaze from those who made him feel that his eyes were hurt, looked at William, and said apologetically, "Compared to these...how normal is your idea?" That's all." When William suggested that they dress up as cowboys, Lance still resisted a little, but now it seems that cowboys are not out of the ordinary here. It's a serial killer with blood all over his clothes, that's the nightmare.

"Actually, their aesthetics are not so difficult to explain. It's all because of Halloween." William explained to his colleagues: "The main reason is that fashion magazines are too mean to them, and a little bit of improper matching can be magnified into a mistake. Only on this day of Halloween, fashion editors can forgive weird looks and even give them kind comments, so it’s no wonder they let themselves go.”

It's true, too many celebrities deliberately took advantage of this day to let their aesthetics fly once, and some of them even hired a special effects makeup artist for themselves.

Celebrities are not short of money, and the looks are naturally realistic enough. Those with hot eyes are really hot eyes. If you choose to play a beautiful character, you will be amazing, especially those who choose the appearance of elves and vampires. good enough.

The shape of the elves is naturally completely copied from "The Lord of the Rings", and the vampires are also taking a fresh and natural route, instead of following the traditional Earl Dracula shape-as the pioneering work of vampire movies, "Dracula" released in 1931 "has had a very important impact on European and American vampire culture, so that for decades, the back combed hair, pale skin like wall paint, overgrown fangs, bleeding eyes or mouth, and appearance The black and red cloak with a stand-up collar has become synonymous with vampires.

Nine out of ten of the vampires who attended the party today had styles that matched those of "Blood Together", most of them were women, and some people specially made up to look like Natalie Portman in the movie, even the logo The sex costumes are all the same. If it weren't for the difference in height, it would really look like a real one.

William was very confused about this. When did "Blood Together" become so popular?It’s not that he doesn’t expect the movie to have such an influence, but that the costumes of “Blood Together” are in a fresh and fashionable style. The stills of the two movies before and after are frequent visitors to youth magazines such as “17 Years Old”. Not scary at all, but very beautiful and fashionable vampire, which obviously doesn't match the Halloween style.

……

"Will, Lance, you are late!" A "Hobbit" with curly hair and overalls came over and said to them in a familiar tone.

Although the voice was familiar, William didn't know it was Toby until the other party walked up to him. "Frodo?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"That's right." Tobey Maguire turned around in front of William: "I even glued a pair of big feet to myself, does it look like a real hobbit?"

Honestly, it's cute, on par with Elijah Wood.William rubbed his chin, agreeing: "If Peter Jackson had seen you dressed like this in the past, he would definitely invite you to play the role of a hobbit."

"Haha, did you communicate with him or something, Peter Jackson said the same." Tobey Maguire said with his waist in his arms: "Look, there he is, making himself into a mad hatter." Then he patted William on the shoulder, "You're not bad, buddy, I've never seen such a handsome cowboy!"

"As for you, Lance, William must have dragged you into the same dress." Toby shook his head again and said to Lance, "It's a pity, your temperament doesn't match cowboys, if you I, I'd suggest you dress up as Legolas or Malfoy—doesn't Will just have a genuine set of wizard robes at home."

Even wearing a full set of cowboy equipment, Lance doesn't look like a cowboy, William still has a bit of a chic look, and Lance is just like a noble young man disguised as a cowboy to experience life, so it's no wonder Toby · Maguire saw through the truth at a glance and came to the conclusion that Lance's dress was definitely William's handwriting.

"It's okay, anyway, I'm just here to join in the fun." Lance said indifferently.

The three of them were talking while standing near the elevator door, and there wasn't much room nearby. When a tall beauty dressed as a vampire brushed William's shoulders and walked out, William complained casually: "This is already what I'm going to watch tonight." It’s the seventh vampire that has arrived, is it possible that the fashion world is also trending retro now?”

"Haven't you noticed? They're here for you." Toby looked at William with strange eyes and said, "Didn't you find that they have too many similarities, angel face, devil figure and proud?" Not to mention the height of the person, oh my god, are those winking eyes cast for the blind!"

Winking?Have it?When Lance turned to look at him, William looked back very innocently, he really didn't notice any winks.

"I don't know what this has to do with me?" William said.

"Of course it has something to do with you." Tobey Maguire said: "To be precise, it has something to do with Willot's movies and TV-they all want to be the second Natalie Portman. "Then, with a tone of envy or schadenfreude, he began to explain William's doubts.

It turns out that those handsome men and beauties at the party tonight who looked like they came out of the set of "Blood Together" did have a purpose-they wanted to save the country with curves, and impress William in a way (can be It is better to have a deep connection), and get a ticket to the crew of "Blood Together".

The global box office of the first film of "Blood Together" was 8.72 million US dollars, and the second film was 7.6 million US dollars. The two films made more than 16 billion US dollars in global gold, attracting countless teenage fans. Hollywood is making a comeback. It stands to reason that the third part of the film series should be filmed soon, but the reality is that the third part of the series, which is tentatively titled "Blood Together: The Long Night is Ending", has not been reported for a long time. information.

One reason is schedule.Natalie Portman will be graduating from Harvard next year. The last academic year is very heavy. In addition to the film contract of "Star Wars Episode 3", she also has two independent film contracts in which she will play The protagonist, after ending these film appointments, Natalie Portman also plans to go to Israel to continue her studies.Although William hasn't encountered a good script that he wants to shoot yet, according to the previous contract, he will complete the follow-up series of "Harry Potter" and "Meet Your Father-in-Law 2", and also fulfill Jennifer Annis When Dun got married, he agreed to the promise of "Friends" producer David Klein to guest star in a TV series.

The second reason is that both William's agent and Natalie Portman's agent are considering whether to continue the filming of the third part of "Blood Together".Needless to say, William, who has already become an Oscar winner, Natalie Portman, who has been blessed by the two blockbuster movie series "Star Wars" and "Blood Together", is no longer a commercial movie star who is all about money. , Both of them have their own new pursuits.William's next new work will attract worldwide attention. If the route he chooses is too commercial, it may attract a lot of saliva from professional film critics. She is also outstanding among the top young actors, fame, status and Oscar are her goals.

Therefore, due to various internal and external reasons, the preparation of the third part of "Blood Together" has been put on hold for the time being. Will the filming continue in the future?Possibly, but no one is quite sure when exactly.

The agents of both parties have not disclosed these reasons to the outside world, so from the outside world, both films have made a lot of money, and it is logical to continue filming the third film, and Willot does not seem to plan to start the filming plan for the third film. , then there must be an inside story, and the end of the second movie does leave a trace of suspense - the hero Vidock and the heroine Emma are a bit like Romeo and Juliet who were forced to separate, and Channing The handsome werewolf played by Tatum has launched a passionate pursuit of the heroine-so those media with big brains will inevitably think too much. The third part of "Blood Together" has not moved for a long time. Could it be Natalie? Portman and Willot broke down, may the third movie change the heroine?

All actors who have participated in the filming of "Blood Together" have developed very well, and it has almost become an inevitable law in Hollywood.Not to mention William, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Natalie Portman, the three who are already qualified to be the protagonists of first-line big productions, Tobey Maguire, Reese Way Suspen, Paul Walker, and Chris Evans also got the opportunity to star in commercial films after filming "Blood Together", and they are not small productions of several million, and they have all become popular now. of young actors.

Hollywood is actually very superstitious. The saying "luck is part of an actor's strength" has been widely spread. There are so many successful examples. Bring them good luck.

Hollywood agencies, big and small, were already looking forward to the auditions for the third film. When the rumor that the film might face a change in the heroine, they were even more ecstatic. Five major agencies such as CAA and WMA are targeting Naturally, it is the starring role, and there are some small brokerage companies that survive among the top five, aiming at small supporting roles with a few lines, or small screens—that is, the same setting as the movie version of "Blood Together" The TV series version, which tells the story of other vampire groups in the United States.

The TV series version of "Blood Together" will be broadcast on WL TV. The screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg personally writes the script of the first season. Willot also promised that the TV series will remain the same as the movie version. Good-looking and fashionable, they have even reached cooperation with many high street and even luxury brands in advance. The latter will be responsible for all the costumes and accessories in the play, so they are not worried that the show will not be popular.

Not only thousands of young actors but also many supermodels who are in urgent need of career transformation want to take the ride of "Blood Together" and become popular.

In fact, the modeling industry is more youthful than actors. Even supermodels, their careers will go downhill after the age of 25. At that time, they will face life choices, whether to return to the family, or to transform their careers and find new ways to make money.

The fashion industry and Hollywood often communicate, not to mention those who just started from the modeling industry to support their families before becoming famous as an actor. Examples of successful transformation from supermodels to actors include Cameron Diaz, Uma Thurman, Charlize Theron, Milla Jovovich, inspired by these famous seniors, every year countless supermodels want to escape the fierce competition in the fashion circle and cross over to Hollywood for development.

But the industry boundaries from supermodels to actors are sometimes very distinct.The phrase "interlaced like a mountain" is not a joke. Without a suitable leader, supermodels will at most be a cameo role in a movie or TV series, and there is no way to properly transform into an actor.And even if they meet a suitable leader, there are crews who are willing to give them a heavy role. The acting skills of most supermodels are not up to standard. Acting in front of the camera is not the same thing as walking on the catwalk. The show, and then...there is no after.

Looking at it this way, "Blood Together", which has high requirements for actors' appearance and fashion, but not too high requirements for acting skills, is simply the most suitable entry level for supermodels.

Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriend Gisele Bundchen has developed in North America for many years. She is one of the top models of Victoria's Secret and has a lot of supermodel friends. Among her friends, there are many Someone who wants to cross over to Hollywood and extend their career for at least another decade.

Those who can work hard to reach the TOP position in any industry are human beings. These models will not directly ask Leonardo DiCaprio to help them lead the way in Hollywood through Gisele Bundchen. The favor is too great, and even if they ask, Leonardo may not necessarily help, because it is tantamount to attracting a lot of trouble.But if they just wanted a way to meet William, the job would be much easier.

Because it was a small favor, Gisele Bündchen couldn't refuse, she conveyed the request of her friends to Leonardo, and Leonardo thought it was a day that no man would refuse. Jiang Yanfu, and based on the idea that watching the excitement is not a big deal, opened the door for Gisele Bundchen's friends.

"By the way." Tobey Maguire said: "The purpose of these models is very clear to Leo, and he even encouraged them, just to create a surprise for you."

William:? ? ?

Can he say no to this kind of "flying beauty".

……

Leonardo's "surprise" made William very dumbfounded.

There is no way to worry about attending a party, should I say that it is indeed Leonardo's party.

God knows he just wanted to have a good night.

"It's not a surprise, it's trouble." William rubbed his brows and said, "Let's not say that I am not responsible for the casting of "Blood Together", even if I am in charge, it is impossible to use the power in my hand for personal gain. There are too many supermodels and actors in the crew, not to mention that it doesn't match the temperament of the film, in the eyes of others, don't I become the second Hugh Hefner?"

"Good ambition," Toby joked.

William gritted his teeth: "I want to give Leo a surprise in return."

Toby raised a hand: "How do I feel from this sentence that Leo may be deflated... What do you want to do, use me to record it with a DV player?"

Even Lance looked at William with interest.

"Keep it secret. You'll find out later." After speaking, William walked to a quiet corner, flipped through the address book and made two phone calls.

When William came back from the phone call, the donation ceremony had already begun. He was in a good mood after planning a prank show, and he generously donated money. The donation amount ranked among the top three among all the guests, even Leon When Nado DiCaprio saw the string of numbers, he took the initiative to find them.

When Leonardo lamented to William how many rainforests could escape the fate of being cut down, and how many animals he could protect the natural homes, William stretched out his hand and pulled Leonardo's mask: "Okay, Save those niceties for later, do you feel uncomfortable at any of your parties without hordes of supermodels? And in my name—”

"You don't like it?" Leonardo asked in surprise.

"I'd be damned if I liked it."

"You don't like blond hair, blue eyes, big breasts, thin waist and long legs?" Leonardo's voice was filled with inquisitive curiosity: "Speaking of which, Will, your aesthetics seems to have always been a mystery, and the media is nothing more than that." , even we don't know what type you like."

William didn't answer him directly: "Don't you feel bored while talking so much while wearing a mask?"

"As expected of an authentic Spider-Man suit, the air permeability is very good." Leonardo said, looked William up and down through the Spider-Man mask, wondering: "What the hell are you pretending to be, you forgot to wear a coat Middle-class office workers?"

Compared with Leonardo wearing a full set of genuine Spider-Man suits, William's clothes are much more ordinary. The light blue striped shirt and camel jeans are indeed not in the same style as Leonardo. They are so simple that they can be seen everywhere ——More than half of the blue-collar workers in the central and western regions like to wear this style.

William put the wide-brimmed soft felt hat that he had been holding in his hands in circles before, and threw a contemptuous look at the other party: "Is there something wrong with your eyes after wearing the mask? Of course I'm a cowboy." .”

"Where's your neckerchief, lariat, leather vest, leggings, and cowboy boots? Just a striped shirt and jeans? You're the most non-standard-dressed cowboy I've ever seen!" Although he couldn't see his expression, he could still hear Leon Unbelievable in Nadeau's voice: "At the party tonight, we will choose the scariest look, the most creative look, and the sexiest look. I will definitely vote for you on the laziest look."

'The dress is the most non-standard, but also hot and smoky, and the sexiest look will definitely get a lot of votes. 'But in this case, it is enough for Leonardo to mutter in his heart, there is no need to say it to make someone proud.

The scarf and lasso mentioned by Leonardo are the full set of equipment needed to reproduce the image of the western cowboy, and William just turned out the clothes he wore when doing farm work on the Kansas farm, but he felt I was accused of being a little wronged: "To be honest, I didn't find a piece of white curtain cloth and cut out two holes for ghosts."

For Halloween costumes, William’s standard has always been to either choose a look that can completely cover his face, or try to get closer to ordinary people, otherwise, if he is photographed, it will be an absolute dark history, such as a Wolverine he just saw The actor dressed up, probably because he used too much hairspray and blown it inappropriately. The hairstyle no longer looks like two cat ears, it is simply two cat ears, combined with a body that is more exaggerated than Hugh Jackman. There is a strange sense of joy.

"...I should have written the dress code on the invitation letter earlier. A perfunctory guy like you should never be let in." Leonardo said angrily.

"Perfunctory also has the advantage of perfunctory, at least it won't bump into the appearance, but there are at least seven or eight Spider-Man like you tonight."

"Then tonight, we can add another game of finding people, and find out who is me among a group of masked Spider-Man!" Leonardo said with a smile: "Isn't it fun?"

William pointed to Leonardo, and then pointed to the others: "I'm afraid this game won't last long at all, and your costume is not on the same level as the others. Otherwise, you thought you stood behind me just now, and I'm How did you suddenly find out that it was yours?"

There are at least six or seven stars appearing at the party in the image of "Spiderman" tonight. Although they are all rich and have not cut corners in their appearance, the Halloween costumes sold in the store are well-made, and there is no way to compete with Leonardo. There are many sets of this set compared to the genuine Spider-Man suits. Not only did the costume designers spend a lot of effort, but they were also very labor-intensive to produce. Because of the use of high-tech fabrics, each set cost tens of thousands of dollars. Most celebrities won't spend tens of thousands of dollars on a cosplay costume.Even if they are willing to spend money, they can't buy the exact same genuine one.

"It's boring, Will." Leonardo rolled his eyes and said, "The point of this game is that the beauty who guesses correctly will get a kiss from Spider-Man. Of course, Spider-Man is me."

"You know it's easy to get the kissing disease, right?"

"You know what I'm thinking right now? I've talked to Martin about the idea of ​​a Howard Hughes biopic. Logan wrote the script—that’s the one who wrote Gladiator—and when John Logan finishes writing the script, I’m going to read it first, and pick a really nasty character for you to comeo on.”

"Ha, Leo, I'm going to sue Mr. Scorsese for cheating on public affairs." William joked.

"How can this be regarded as self-serving? I'm obviously thinking about you." Leonardo moved closer to William, put his finger on his shoulder and said, "The most eye-catching character in this movie must be playing Howard Hugh. I, and then actresses who played legendary movie stars such as Katharine Hepburn, if your cameo role is not bright, then most likely you will be submerged in our star-studded, only you played an annoying character, It’s the audience who remembers you—save for the end of the film, when the audience reads the credits and William Bradley has a cameo, but they don’t remember who you are playing!”

"The situation you mentioned is basically impossible. Is my face very unrecognizable?" William raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Leonardo. The two were so close that the brim of the cowboy hat was almost rubbed against spiders The mask is on, "But we can make an exchange, you also come to play an annoying role in my movie, so even if you ask me to play a serial murderer first, I will be obliged to do so."

"Hey, what you're trying to do is that if I deliberately punish you, you have to come back, right?"

William shrugged: "Can't you? It's fair."

"It feels quite interesting. Well, I agree." Leonardo squeezed his chin and said, "But can I make a request? It's best to be a super villain with a very complicated personality. I've never acted in it." Such a role."
