Chapter 169 The Prophet First

Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

"Jerry Brookheimer?"

Matthew thought of some things before. Helen Herman said at that time that Jerry Brookheimer was planning a major project with Walt Disney, and couldn't help but ask, "Is there any news about that amusement park project?"

"Disney has reached an agreement with Jerry Brookheimer on this project." Unlike last time, Helen Herman clearly has a clear news. "They will use the Pirates of the Caribbean recreation project at Disneyland as a model to create a brand new Pirate Adventure movie, with an expected investment of no less than $100 million."

"Pirates movie?" Matthew asked curiously, "Is the Pirates of the Caribbean a recreation in Disneyland?"

It was the first time he hadn't been to Disneyland that there was a Pirates of the Caribbean playground in Disneyland.

"It's not just," Helen Herman said, "Disney has registered a brand with Pirates of the Caribbean a long time ago. If someone uses this brand to shoot movies, it will infringe Disney's copyright."

Matthew really didn't expect that the major project between Disney and Jerry Brookheimer in Helen Herman's mouth would be "Pirates of the Caribbean", and he could only sigh that the poor children had never been to Disneyland.

Seeing Matthew remained silent, Helen Herman thought he had an idea and asked, "Are you worried about Pirate Movies?" She said directly, "Pirate Movies are down. "Cutting the Throat Island" directly led to the bankruptcy of Carlock Pictures. This type of film is indeed very risky, but I want to remind you. Matthew, this is a project where Jerry Brookheimer serves as the producer!"

"Uh, I know." Matthew didn't know the rise and fall of Hollywood Pirates at all. "Jerry Brookheimer is the gold producer, and he is the guarantee of success."

"The project produced by Jerry Brookheimer is very unlikely to fail." Helen Hermann habitually helped her glasses off, "That's why I've been paying attention to his new project."

It is easier to succeed in working with successful people. This is one of the most basic ways to avoid risks in Hollywood. Matthew naturally knew that, and he asked, "Is there anything more specific?"

Helen Herman shook his head slightly, "At present, Disney and Jerry Brookheimer are only sure to make such a film, targeting young audiences, with investment of no less than 100 million US dollars. There are no other ones yet, Jerry Brookheimer is still looking for a suitable screenwriter to write scripts."

Matthew couldn't help but be curious, "I'm sure you invest if you don't even have a script?"

"This is normal." Helen Hermann didn't find it strange. "Many Hollywood movies have projects, so they only ask screenwriters to write scripts. They don't write scripts and sell scripts everywhere."

"No script, no characters..." Matthew spread his hands, "What should I do?"

Helen Hermann had long considered, "Since it is an entertainment movie for teenagers, the characters will definitely become younger, and handsome men and beautiful women are generally standard. You don't need to do too much, just leave a good impression on Jerry Brookheimer in the place where you meet him."

Matthew nodded slightly, "I understand."

Helen Hermann added, "You have a very different status between Jerry Brookheimer, so don't be smart and random to make relationships with him, as this will easily have the opposite effect." She thought about it and said, "I will keep following up with this project and will notify you when you need to do things."

Matthew didn't speak and continued to nod, in this regard, his interests with Helen Hermann were tightly tied.

"Now the filming of "The Scorpion King" is finished." Helen Herman leaned on a chair, holding his hands in his chest. "Matthew, you have been resting for a long time! Be nervous next time, this is the best opportunity for us. Our goal is Disney and Jerry Brookheimer's project, and Stephen Somos and Universal's Monster Film Project, both of which are a-list projects."

She looked at Matthew, "Ideally, you can get the male lead in these two projects, both projects have big box office hits, and you can directly enter the ranks of first-tier movie stars."

Matthew was also extremely moved when he heard the movie stars, but then he woke up. This was just the best situation he imagined, and it was too difficult to achieve it.

99% of the monster movie projects of Stephen Somos and Universal Pictures are "Van Helsing". Will this film change because of his participation? Matthew doesn't think so. Even if he can participate in this film, he is just an actor. An ordinary actor can't change such a big project.

Let’s take a step back, even if it can affect Stephen Somos and Universal Pictures, how should he affect it? How to change this video? How to change it to make this video successful?

Even if he becomes the producer of the crew, do you know what to do?

Therefore, the male protagonist of this film is very likely to be a pitfall for him, and it is best to push it off.

As for "Pirates of the Caribbean", the series can be filmed continuously, and Johnny Depp's become the top Hollywood superstar is enough to illustrate many problems.

But Matthew lacked confidence, and that sissy pirate was not suitable for him. A very strong and tough man played this type of role, and he could not think of a second possibility except for failure.

Then there is the little blacksmith. This character has no problem with its image. After all, a blacksmith who thrusts should be a strong and strong man with strong muscles.

However, there seems to be little hope.

As soon as the "Lord of the Rings" series was released, Orlando Bloom was directly popular and stepped into the second line steadily.

Helen Hermann simply chose two of the most difficult tasks, one of which was still the kind that could not be touched.

Fortunately, Stephen Somos and Universal Pictures may not choose him. Even if "The Scorpion King" succeeded in the box office, he was not as good as Wolverine.

You can try "Pirates of the Caribbean". If you fail, there will be no loss. What if it succeeds? After all, Helen Hermann is still very resourceful and means.

Sitting in the office, Matthew's head was running rapidly, and suddenly he thought of another question: If you want to become a A-camera, you must have a big box office movie. These movies are often expensive. For high-cost movies, which protagonist is not fat? Not stared at by a group of wolves?

If you want to eat this piece of fat, you must stand out from the pack of wolves.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" needs competition, but don't you need other major projects? If you want to climb up, it is impossible to avoid this competition.

He talked with Helen Hermann until almost noon before Matthew left Angel Agency, but he was still a little overwhelmed when he thought about competing for the protagonist in a movie project that didn't even have a script or role.

But then he thought about it, this was exactly his advantage, because he knew that there were three protagonists in "Pirates of the Caribbean". Although he didn't remember the specific name, he generally knew that it was the sissy pirate captain, the little blacksmith and the peaceful breasted heroine.

The most suitable man like him is the little blacksmith. The British accent of this character is easy to say. He took accent classes at the Los Angeles Performance School, one of which is to learn the so-called London accent. If you are sure to compete for this role, you can practice it again.

The biggest problem is fame. If there were no Lord of the Rings trilogy and Legolas...

Matthew shook his head, it was obviously impossible, the first part of the series will be released next month.

When he drove into his own car, he no longer thought about it. Since the opportunity has appeared, he has to fight.

Leaving Angel Agency, Matthew went directly to the Los Angeles Performing Arts School, found David Astor, and asked him to help find an excellent British accent teacher and prepare to hire him for a large sum of money.

This is not only for the present, but also for the future. Many Hollywood movies will use British accents, such as the British accents of all the main characters in the trailer of "The Lord of the Rings" that has been released.

Matthew knew very well that this was increasing his own competitive capital, not wasting resources.

Then he went to the fitness club, found Neborah, and asked him if he knew a fencing coach related to the film industry. Although Matthew practiced swordsmanship under the guidance of action guide Tim Madson before filming "The Scorpion King", this swordsmanship was very different from European fencing.

And he vaguely remembers that the action design in "Pirates of the Caribbean" is different from the action scenes that "The Scorpion King" strives to be realistic, and is more fancy and beautiful.

What he did will help him compete for this role in the future.

Matthew didn't know whether it was more appropriate to use the prophet to go first or the stupid bird to fly first.

David Astor contacted him with an accent teacher as quickly as possible and would teach him British accent practice as soon as possible. Matthew had a little basic before, which was relatively not particularly difficult.

At the fitness club, Neborah also agreed to help him contact a fencing coach with experience in teaching actors and quickly got it in place.

Matthew made full preparations by taking advantage of his only advantage. Anyway, the skills he practiced will definitely be beneficial to the future.

These cost a lot of money, but fortunately he is not short of money now.

The crew of "The Scorpion King" has paid all $500,000 in full. Matthew has a large amount of money in his hand, so there is no problem in paying this expense.

Time passed quickly while practicing British accent and fencing. After December, he temporarily put down his other things and went to the crew of "Black Hawk Down" to report, preparing to participate in several promotional activities such as "Black Hawk Down" media trial and preview conference in Los Angeles.

Sony Columbia Pictures aims at the Oscars next year, so although the release date of the film is postponed to January next year, it will start previews in five theaters in Los Angeles in December to get the most basic Oscar selection ticket.

All the previews, previews and other promotions, crews and Sony Columbia Pictures all operate around the Oscars.
