[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

"How is your preparation for the audition?" Nicole changed the subject to a safer topic, "It's the Warner movie."

Nicole has heard about the role of "The Devil's Advocate", but the industry is not very optimistic about this project.

On the one hand, there are various metaphors about religion, humanity and law in the original novel, and the interpenetration of reality and magic makes the whole storyline more complicated and chaotic. Obviously, it is not a subject that is easy to please the general public.

On the other hand, it is because, as one of the top four big boys in Hollywood today, Keanu Reeves has had a hard time selecting films since "Speed" became popular all over the world, let alone traditional science fiction films and action films. It seems that I heard that I took a low-cost biopic to polish my acting skills, which is simply unimaginable.

"For me, it's not very difficult." Josie's answer was straightforward.

For such schizophrenic or dual personality roles, it can be said that she is good at it. In a few days, a "Level One Fear" starring her will be released soon.

Nicole hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Then audition and sign the contract as soon as possible, this is a rule of thumb. In Hollywood, you never know what will happen in the next second."

At that time, Josie just smiled, and turned her head to let Martha inquire about the progress of the crew. After all, in her opinion, this role is her own.

What she didn't expect was that Nicole's worries were fulfilled a few days later.

"Charlize Theron? Who asked her to audition." Josie was a little surprised to hear this name.

The future South African diamond is currently just a rookie, far from being a heroine in a mainstream commercial film, but she was on the audition list for the heroine of "Titanic" last time, maybe she has an excellent agent person or manager.

"Martha replied: "Someone recommended her to Taylor Hackford, the director of "The Devil's Advocate". character, because she is too glamorous, but she seemed a little moved by the last time. "

Josie felt that the director's name sounded familiar, and wanted to use the landline to dial the private number of Lucy Spiller, the editor-in-chief of Gossip, but the line happened to be busy, so she used the desktop computer in the study to access the IMDB database.

"Technology changes lives. Look, I have no quarrel with him, but my enemies never hesitate to screw up my work, even if there is only a slight possibility." She scrolled down the IMDB page and said to Martha Said: "There is a high probability that Richard Gere is poaching my corner. They have cooperated before. To him, it was just a phone call. No matter whether it is successful or not, it can disgust me. This trick is very well done. Great."

Josie had only a handful of enemies, and among them was only this big star who was tirelessly looking for work for her, and it was not like other people's style to find new people to grab roles.

"As for that Miss Theron, she's really a tough and talented actress," she added.

Only such people are suitable for Hollywood, because the other party has clear goals and firm will, and can still face difficulties even if they are rejected, and can climb up if they seize a little opportunity.

If it wasn't Josie who was poached, then she might appreciate Charlize Theron more.

"This is a new model who just made his mark in last year's "Kids in the Cornfield 3", and seems to be George Clooney's girlfriend." Martha heard that Josie's tone was a little subtle, so she asked: "Now we what to do?"

"What's the news about Keanu?" Josie asked, "They should have better news than us."

As the leading man and the absolute center of the crew, can Keanu bear the heroine he found to be replaced by a newcomer who came out of nowhere?

Martha paused for a moment, and said in a formulaic tone as much as possible: "Taylor Hackford's assistant has notified Charlize Theron to have her fourth audition next Monday morning, and she might try with the leading actor."

Josie twitched the corners of her lips, and a casual chuckle was clearly transmitted to Martha's ears through the electric current.

She heard Josie respond, "Martha, get in touch with them for me, I've got an audition ready. Next Monday afternoon would be a good time. And if there's news, I'm free again—such as "Psychological" "Game", ask if they still lack a heroine?"

To be honest, the combination of Michael Douglas, Sean Penn and David Fincher is not inferior to the main creative lineup of "The Devil's Advocate", but Al Pacino is the actor Josie really wants to work with.

It's just that Taylor Hackford's actions now make her a little dissatisfied.

However, Josie didn't let her emotions be influenced by anger that she shouldn't have. Instead, she planned to go to the scene to see the situation in person on the day of the audition.

What's more, the premiere of "First Degree Fear" is just around the corner.

Because of the film's low salary and the Golden Globe PR of "Leading the Show", Josie had a bad fight with Paramount, but they still have the last film contract left, and no one is ready. Completely torn face.

But little tricks are inevitable.

Josie was absent from most of the pre-promotional activities. After all, it was the Oscars and "Mr. Sweetheart", so she didn't have much time to promote a new movie with a supporting role.

Paramount's attitude towards her was somewhat helpless.

On the one hand, the new film contract was originally unequal.

In order to protect Paramount's interests to the greatest extent, the old and cunning Shirley Lansing did not stipulate a period of performance in the contract. It was precisely because of this that if Paramount pointed to the contract and forced Josie to make another film for them For movies, Josie can also point to the contract for ten or eight years.

On the other hand, Josie holds two top Hollywood resources of "Mr. He will soar into the sky and is expected to launch an impact on the first-line stars. He will no longer be the rookie who signed the unequal contract without hesitation.

What's more, her father, a wealthy financier, invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the film industry for his daughter. One time, she might pay tuition for love—roughly counting the Horton family's wealth, at least in the next five years, Josie Horton doesn't need to worry about having no acting opportunities.

Therefore, Paramount really has nothing to do with Josie.

Intimidate and lure, worrying that the two sides will completely turn against each other; continue to praise, but it is really unwilling.

In the end, it was Shirley Lansing, a strong woman, who put down the figure of the president of Paramount, and took the initiative to call Josie to ask if she was free to attend the premiere.

Of course Josie has time.

Not only that, but she also expressed her apology on the phone for not being able to cooperate with the promotion schedule due to scheduling issues, and she also promised that she would definitely appear at the premiere.

Shirley Lansing also graciously stated that Paramount understands her difficulties quite well, and they don't care about it. They just hope that the next cooperation can go on more smoothly.

Josie just replied, "Oh, of course, we'll have a great time together—schedule? I don't have a schedule this year, which is a shame."

The two women wrangled and tested, and finally ended the conversation quite satisfied with each other.

Fast forward to Friday night, and the opening weekend of "First Degree Fear" is upon us.

Josie won a series of Chanel endorsements after the Oscars, so she wore the brand's bright yellow dress tonight, looking extraordinarily youthful and beautiful, stealing a lot of the scenery that belongs to the hero and heroine.

"Josie, Leonardo DiCaprio has already confirmed that he will play the leading role in "Titanic". Do you have any contact in private?"

"Josie, tell me, are you and Leo dating?"

"Josie, I heard that you have a boyfriend, would you mind talking to us about him?"

"Josie, someone witnessed Edward Norton dating you. What's your relationship?"

"Josie, we all know that you are a fan of Tom Cruise. Will this affect you when you are making a new movie?"

"Josie, can you tell us why Nicole often visits the class?"

Spotlights flickered on both sides of the short red carpet, and the movie actor at the end of the red carpet smiled faintly.

"She turned tonight's premiere into a vulgar weekly gossip magazine interview scene." The perfect smile on Richard Gere's face disappeared when he turned around. Niu is worth paying attention to these scandals, why doesn't she act in some movies that are more suitable for her to show off her sexiness?"

His manager smiled cooperatively and did not speak.

Simply Richard Gere didn't expect him to talk, and asked, "Why is there still no progress on Charlize Theron? I spent an important favor to get her to get Taylor Hackford, not to see This is the situation now."

"It can't be helped, her reputation and qualifications are too low, and Warner doesn't think much of a newcomer as a heroine." - And her opponent is Josie Horton, so the chances of winning are even slimmer.

In view of Richard Gere's dislike for the latter, his agent swallowed the latter sentence and added: "But that girl has perseverance and skill, not only did Taylor Hackford promise to give her A role, let alone persuaded him to let her play with the leading actor Keanu Reeves, I'm afraid Josie Horton will be mad if she knows about it?"

Sure enough, Richard Gere showed a satisfied smile, and patted his manager's shoulder, "Good job. This is the fatal spot of women."

Those who have some background in Hollywood are actually well aware of how this "golden girl" quickly rose to the top and the reason why she was able to stand alone in the circle.

On the one hand, she does have the talent to be a star and an actress. She has both personal charm and acting skills, and she is also lucky.

But more importantly, someone was behind her to escort her.

It's like the heroine of "Mr. Sweetheart".

If it wasn't for Ian Bryce, the producer who worked for "Speed", I don't know how to convince Cameron Crowe, the director of "Mr. Sweetheart", even Sony Columbia loves Josie. Horton, the casting result has to be a stalemate for a long time in order to use another unknown new actress.

During the audition, I didn’t encounter unspoken rules, and I didn’t encounter sexual harassment in the crew. My journey to stardom went smoothly, and I didn’t act in a few movies to challenge the seniors who are more famous than myself. Josie Horton is really enviable. Good luck, and infuriating incomprehension!

But now the situation is very interesting.

Her protector, the charismatic Mr. Keanu Reeves, even agreed to audition with another equally young and beautiful actress. Doesn't this prove that she has developed a certain attraction to him?

What a delight.

In any case, tonight's premiere of "Level One Fear" officially opened in the anticipation of everyone——
