596. Chapter 596
After taking a good rest for more than a month after the Oscars, Sean started to find something to do.
Although a lot of things happened in the past month or so, such as Natalie's lesson or Zoe's wedding, I basically didn't spend much energy on it, and I didn't deliberately inquire about certain things.
For example, Zoe was in a completely different situation before and after the wedding. She was nervous and anxious before, but in front of Emily, she gave him a blowjob while wearing a wedding dress, and immediately returned to normal, and even used the opportunity of kissing to bully him.
Once. Although it was strange, Sean didn't ask too much. He just took this opportunity to let her continue to have sex in her wedding dress at night, as a small punishment for her.
Naturally, he would not have known that Zoe was angry after he and Emily stole the food, and she did not want to win the battle. Then she understood the idea that "this is a normal life of her own choice."
But what does it matter? Anyway, the wedding was a success, and everyone had a good time on the Caribbean island, which gave Zoe an explanation. However, she will be ridiculed for a long time: Hey,
You are already a married person, and you have changed your mind.
Not only Galen and the others were teasing her like this, but Liana was also making fun of her. She even threatened that she would be obedient in the future, otherwise she would tell her parents about this.
What the hell, do you still think that each other is just a child now? Unfortunately, Sean could only say that he must be obedient, and at the same time secretly rejoiced that she did not bring her fiancé, otherwise it would definitely be like letting Edward David
Si shut his mouth as an excuse to instruct him to do this or that.
In fact, Lianna doesn't care what she asks Sean to do, she just cares about letting him do it, and she can always find a way to make him do it.
Well, for the sake of her sister, Sean doesn't care about this with her. Although it's hard to resist here, you can still find your place elsewhere. So Emma is unlucky, when she also imitates Galen and the others.
When teasing her, Sean directly pressed her on the bed and tidied her up.
Although Emma complained again and again, it didn't help. As long as she dared to be so provocative again, Sean would try his best to make her look good. Of course, he still had a good sense of proportion. Emma actually liked to play this kind of lover with him.
A little game between.
Without mentioning this, let’s talk about the movie. Sean currently has no film commitments, so he will spend more time focusing on reincarnation and the series of movies he has recently invested in and produced.
After the success of "Iron Man", the second part, "Captain America" and "Thor" and even the subsequent "Avengers" began to be put on the agenda. Marvel is excited about the upcoming "The Incredible Hulk" produced by them in June.
" also has great expectations. If this movie can achieve good results like "Iron Man", then Marvel will completely turn around.
Of course, Sean won't say anything more. Only when surprises encounter setbacks will they be more closely connected with reincarnation, right?
Then what needs his attention is "500 Days with Summer". This script was recommended to Zoe by him. It is an independent film. When he first saw it, he intuitively told him that it should have good reputation and box office, and it had a fresh and fresh feeling.
Suitable for Zoe.
This is also true. When Sean recommended Zoe, the director and screenwriter were very happy, thinking that she was tailor-made for the script.
Even so, it has not promoted the filming progress of the movie at all. From the time Zoe was confirmed as the heroine at the end of last year to now, less than one-fifth of the filming has been completed.
Marc Webb and Scott Neustadt, the film's directors and screenwriters, always found one thing or another to delay filming. For example, they desperately wanted to be nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress last year.
Chloë Grace Moretz was able to play a supporting role in it, so she asked Sean to come forward to discuss the project, or hope to increase some investment so that they could go to San Francisco to shoot.
Others, such as hoping that Han Solo could appear in the movie, so they wrote letters to Lucasfilm and Harris Ford, but in the end they asked Sean or the people in Samsara to talk about it. In the end, they didn't mention it.
What is intolerable is that they actually published part of the plot online and then asked netizens for their opinions.
Well, although it can be predicted that this kind of interactive movies will definitely appear in the future, is it too early? Sean almost doubted his intuition.
But Zoe really likes this shooting method.
"It's fun, isn't it? A lot of people got involved and then constantly improved the script to make the story more real." This is what she said.
Well, she has always been a very out-of-the-box girl, full of novel ideas. She has not changed much after being married for two years. It is normal for her to be like this. Just look at the scripts she chose before.
So Sean had no choice but to let her go, and basically met the crew's requirements, but of course, it was not unconditional.
"In short, I helped them solve all the problems. So far, I still believe that they can make a good movie. I hope they will not let me down and my intuition will not be wrong," Sean said.
At that time, he was at the bar at a party, and George Clooney was sitting next to him.
"It can't go wrong. You rarely make mistakes, right?" Clooney laughed, as graceful as ever.
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore," Sean waved his hand, "How have you been lately? You seem to be very busy."
"Actually, I just have something to discuss with you." Clooney's face straightened, "I hope you can do me a favor."
"Oh?" Sean raised his eyebrows in surprise, "What do you need my help with?"
Clooney did not laugh, but said seriously: "I hope you can help me persuade Jason Reitman. I hope I can operate the script in his hand, which is based on Walter Ken's novel."
"Jason Reitman?" Sean thought for a while and quickly retrieved it from his memory. He was the director who directed "Juno".
"Can you be more specific?" he asked with interest.
"Well..." Clooney nodded his head with his finger, as if he didn't want to say too much, but finally continued, "It was by chance, well, not by chance. In short, I read Walter Ken's
A novel about company layoffs, a very interesting novel. I wanted to adapt it into a movie, but then I discovered that Ken originally wrote it as a script, but unfortunately there was no investment from the company, so in 2002, Leiter
Mann has got it."
"He made a better adaptation, but no one was willing to take it, so it has been put up until now. And you realized the inherent value of this script, so you wanted to take it, but you couldn't reach an agreement with Reitman, so I hope I
Can you help, is that so?" Sean added with a smile.
"Basically...that's it." Clooney spread his hands.
"Okay, I will, don't worry." Sean laughed.
Sean knew very well what Clooney was worried about. It was simply that he read the script and found it good, so he wanted to take it and produce it himself. After all, with "Juno" in front of him, it was easy to convince Reitman.
This is too much to underestimate Sean. Although he continues to increase his chips for reincarnation, he will not affect his personal connections for such a movie.
However, when Sean read the original novel and the script he got, he discovered that the other party was worried about another issue. The male protagonist in both the novel and the script was quite interesting. Think about it, he is famous for playing mature and different types of characters.
Sean has transformed into an employee who runs around for the company to comfort those who were laid off. In the end, he was also laid off. If he plays the role well, he must leave a deep impression on others.
Coupled with the increasingly sluggish economy, Sean still remembers the subprime mortgage crisis quite clearly. As early as the beginning of last year, he asked the financial director to throw out all investments related to the property market. Under such circumstances, he played this role well and received
There should be no problem with a nomination. Clooney is probably most concerned about this. Although he has already won a statuette for Best Supporting Actor, who doesn't want to win a Best Actor award?
Although Sean was tempted and intuitively felt that this movie should have a good reputation, he didn't reach out after thinking about it. One reason was that he didn't want to affect his network for a movie, and he didn't need more nominations now, so
is another reason.
Six nominations in eight years has exceeded the qualifications of many people. Sean now needs more decisive roles like "There Will Be Blood" and "Milk", rather than "In the Cloud", which may be nominated but wins.
A role with low probability.
So, instead of grabbing the role, it's better to sell Clooney a favor that can be used quickly.
"I have already talked with Reitman and I recommended you to him. Although he prefers Steve Martin, he also thinks that I am right and you can have a good talk." After making the decision, Xiao
Well, I called Clooney and made my attitude clear.
"Thank you, Sean, I feel very happy." Clooney was naturally overjoyed.
Then I heard Sean continue: "By the way, I think you may have considered the main role. I will recommend a supporting role here."
"The one you recommended must be excellent," Clooney said tactfully.
Having just owed Sean such a huge favor, he naturally couldn't refuse this recommendation, and based on his performance, he could think of anyone he would recommend on his knees, so Clooney hoped that the other person would have acting skills, and
Not a vase.
"Yes, I believe she won't let me down," Sean said clearly without covering up, "I think she is very suitable for Natalie - oh, I really don't want to hear this name - in short,
She should be very suitable for the role of the female staff member."
"Okay, I get it, I will definitely make arrangements," Clooney agreed, "but an audition is still required."
"Of course." The deal has basically been settled here. Sean doesn't think that Blake Lively, who has already developed a sense of crisis, will lose to Leighton Meester, who has already joined the crew of "Child Abuse"
