The end of the Oscars ceremony means the end of another awards season in Hollywood. When the media seized the last heat of the Oscars and another burst of speculation, Hollywood appeared to be much quieter.

The brokers running in Burbank and Beverly Hills disappeared. The business staff of professional public relations companies entered a dormant period. Stars of all sizes continued to be drunk and busy, waiting for the next awards season.

In this year’s Oscar feast to divide the cake, Walt Disney’s films performed poorly, relying on "Transformers" and "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" to win the best visual effects and best art direction respectively.

As for Ryan's use of "Transformers" to win a nomination for the best director for Michael Bay, it is destined to be a witty remark between him and Natalie.

After entering March, with the rapid rise in temperature, the hydrangea and magnolia trees planted in Jenkins Manor bloomed successively, and other flowering trees and plants also became colorful, embellishing the wide front courtyard and back garden with a particularly charming appearance. If you walk in it, you really feel like you have entered a sea of ​​flowers and plants.

After several years of renovation by Charlize Theron, the manor originally dominated by palm trees and hydrangeas has become more diverse and the scenery has become more charming.

In the few days after returning from Dubai to Los Angeles, apart from the time spent with Ryan, many times, Charlize took him to walk in the garden, and even designed a women's dress based on a few peculiar hydrangea flowers. .

"Unfortunately, Alison is not here."

Leaning against Ryan's arms, Charlize looked through the window at the flower garden full of hydrangeas, "This is her favorite flower."

"She is touring the United States." Adjusting her body in a soft chair to make Charlize more comfortable, Ryan said, "She won't be back to Los Angeles in the short term."

"I heard that Alison's concert has an average attendance rate of over 95%."

Hearing Charlize's emotions, Ryan grabbed her hand and kissed her. "She has a huge appeal among people born in the 1990s."

"Wait for me to finish this." Charlize kissed Ryan's lips back, "I'll go and help her."

Having said this, she suddenly turned the topic to the just-concluded Oscars, "Our votes this time went to "Infernal Affairs". Will they return this favor next time?"

"At the celebration party." Ryan nodded slightly. "Martin and Stephen have already expressed their full support for Disney's film next year."

""Black Swan"?" Charlize naturally understands what the film will impact next year's Oscars.

"Yes." Ryan admitted directly.

"Best director or best actress?" she asked again.

"Best Actress." Ryan squeezed Charlize's puffed nose, "Without the help of some other aspects, it is too difficult for a female director to be the best director."

"Why...this way." Charlize's eyes rolled, "Ms. Portman will be the director in the future. Miss Kidman and I will be the heroine, and then you will be the hero, and we will star in a movie together. What do you think of this? What's your idea?"

"This is a good idea." Ryan couldn't help rolling his eyes. "It's very difficult to achieve."

"Are you worried about us fighting?" Charlize turned his head with a smile, and kissed his lips again. "Even if we do, our target will only be you."

"I have seen Sandy," she said suddenly, "very cute."

"When?" Ryan asked strangely. "Why don't I know?"

"At the end of last year, Gwyneth moved back to Los Angeles." Charlize explained briefly, "I went to her party, in Epple's room. I saw Sandy."

Ryan understood. Last year, Nicole went to London to help him with some Harry Potter affairs, and temporarily entrusted Sandy to Gwyneth to take care of him.

"I want to be her godmother." Charlize said again.

"My dear." Ryan said helplessly, "Sanny already has Drew. Judy, Gwyne, Kate. Nami's five nominal godmothers..."

"None of us are devout believers." Charlize said indifferently. "It doesn't matter if you have one more."

"Okay." Ryan sighed softly, "I will talk to Nicole about this."

"Also, Ryan."

It seems that it has been too long. Charlize has said a lot in the past few days, "I read the new script you wrote yesterday."

"Which?"

"The one about Warcraft."

Pulling a chair next to him, Charlize sat opposite Ryan and said seriously, "I think this script is very suitable for us. You starred in Alsace Menethil, and I and Nicole Kidd. Man can choose between Jaina Proudmoore and Sylvanas Windrunner, but I don’t know if Miss Portman can control such a magical epic."

After speaking, she grinned.

Ryan smiled first, then fell into thinking.

He has completed the script for the first part of the Warcraft series for a long time, but has not yet begun preparations. First, he wants to wait for the game to have a greater impact. Second, there are too few movies that have been successfully adapted from past and present games.

It can be said that apart from the "Resident Evil" series, there is no game adaptation movie that can be a big success.

Nowadays, "World of Warcraft" can be said to be the world's largest online game. It has a large group of players. After "Burning Crusade" is launched, "Wrath of the Lich King" is also under development. The next two to three In 1991, this series has all the conditions for adaptation into a movie.

Perhaps Charlize's proposal is also good?

However, with Natalie's level, shooting a literary film is not a big problem, but such a commercial masterpiece does require her to be more mature, especially since it will involve a large number of group scenes.

In fact, Ryan still has a big concern. To some extent, Alsace Menethil and Anakin Skywalker are somewhat similar.

The same young genius, the youth proud; the same beauty; the same bright hope and the future of the country; the same betrayal of his own organization and annihilation of it; the same with a cool helmet and a cool armor; The same was deceived by the strange uncle, and became the subordinate of his own mortal enemy.

Even the Jedi and Silver Hand to which they belong are very similar.

They are all military forces developed by religious groups, using the most basic and mysterious forces in the universe-the original force and the holy light. They are also attached to a country, but to be precise, they are not part of this country. …

Therefore, although the first draft of the script is completed, Ryan is still thinking and revising.

Strictly speaking, if it weren't placed in the context of Star Wars, even his Anakin Skywalker would not be considered a successful role, especially the transition from light to dark, which is particularly abrupt.

This also has something to do with George Lucas’ not good at scripts.

Therefore, in Ryan’s conception, the focus of Alsace’s ink in the first part was the change in his thoughts. Unlike Anakin, he really wanted to protect Lordaeron, but because he couldn’t save the people. Death and the fanatical pursuit of the power to protect the kingdom have gone astray.

When he walked to Stratholme, the prince who vowed to protect the kingdom and the people had no choice.

Could he really go away like the Knights of the Silver Hand and Jaina Proudmoore?

The former is part of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, but they are first loyal to the Holy Light, not to mention the latter, that is the future queen of Kul Tiras, and Stratholme is not her people.

The script still needs to be revised. As for the final choice, Ryan also needs time to weigh.

After staying in the room until the evening, Ryan and Charlize put on their dresses, drove away from Jenkins Manor, and went to the Four Seasons Hotel to participate in a charity fundraiser on AIDS among African children.

The event was hosted by the UN refugee agency. The participants excluded Hollywood celebrities, as well as many well-known political and commercial figures. The donations raised that night even exceeded 50 million U.S. dollars.

"Hi, Ryan, Charlie."

In the banquet hall, Ryan and Charlize shook hands with Drew Barrymore and Arnold Schwarzenegger who came over.

"Arnold, when can we push for reforms that are more beneficial to Hollywood?" Ryan asked the current governor, "Hollywood and Burbank's studios, it's hard to see the crew."

"You know, Ryan." Schwarzenegger and Charlize touched their glasses and said before drinking, "Reform is not easy, and we face great resistance."

He was uncomfortable as governor, and even depressed.

"What about my proposal?" Drew suddenly interjected, "I have already done Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham and Bruce Willis."

"I have no problem." Schwarzenegger's clear gaze swept across Ryan and Drew Barrymore. "But I want to declare that I can only play a cameo."

"No problem. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"

After Drew responded, Schwarzenegger said apologetically and went to the other side to socialize.

"So." Charlize immediately understood what they were talking about. "Drew, your long-planned action movie is about to begin preparations."

"Can persuade the four of them to take a pay cut." Drew Barrymore looked at Schwarzenegger's back. "The rest are much easier."

For second- and third-rate action stars like Ronger, Jeter Lee, and Terry Cruise, it doesn't matter if there is more than one, and one less.

"What about the director and the script?" Ryan asked.

"The director is tentatively scheduled to be Sylvester Stallone." Drew roughly understood what Ryan meant. "I rejected Stallone's proposal to write the script himself. I have already contacted Jenkins Pictures, and the screenwriting team will create a suitable script. ."

As long as the script is logical, the most important thing is to measure the scenes among the big action stars, otherwise it will be a headache for these troublesome guys to make trouble on the set. (To be continued...) ()
