The role of Little Pepper in "Iron Man" is very important because she represents Tony's inner concern and is also the only brake in his unruly life. The trust bond between them is irreplaceable. Unfortunately, in the last two works of the series, Little Pepper gradually became a vase and was unable to gain more performance. This is also a common problem in Hollywood commercial blockbusters.

In the "Iron Man" in the previous life, Little Pepper was played by Gwyneth Paltrow. She is quite consistent with the character's temperament. Although it is not outstanding, it is also impressive.

Now Lance has not seen the story outline yet, nor has he calmed down to think seriously, not sure whether he plans to play the heroic role of Tony Stark, because Lance knows that once he plays, he will inevitably be tied to the role, just like Robert Downey Jr.

"Iron Man" brought Robert to the peak of his career, but also put his actor career in a stagnant stage. In eight years, except for Tony Stark, he had almost no other works worth mentioning. Even after filming, the response was mediocre, which was even several times worse than Johnny Depp being controlled by "Pirates of the Caribbean". The powerful influence of Marvel Studios can make a fortune for Robert, but it can also become a box that binds Robert.

What Lance needs the least is such a limitation.

However, personally aside, Gwyneth's role as Peppers is a good idea. Although Lance and Gwyneth have a past, as Lance said before, if Gwyneth can bring him box office and benefits, then he doesn't mind reworking with Gwyneth.

But a flash of inspiration in my mind just now. Lance felt that Kate played Little Pepper, which seemed to be a good proposal. Of course, if Kaite was in the head, it would be necessary to increase Little Pepper's role, at least to make the role plump, otherwise it would be a big waste.

"So... this is a...uh, superhero movie?" Kate was not sure what "Iron Man" was. After all, her understanding of this area was really limited. Lance laughed silently and nodded to confirm. "So, is this little pepper the heroine?" Lance gave a positive answer again, but Kate curled his lips and showed a disgusting expression. "Do you think it's more interesting to play a villain than the heroine?"

Sure enough, Kate's style is unique.

"Imagine that the excellence of this type of hero movie is never based on the ability of a hero, but on the charm of a villain." Kate said seriously, "I can play a charming but extremely dangerous villain, just like the Catwoman in Batman. Isn't this kind of good and evil character very interesting?"

"Hey, you know Batman and Catwoman." Lance's focus was different from ordinary people, and Kate didn't mind either. He wrinkled his nose and said in a low voice, "When you have children, you still have two sons, you will know a lot of mysterious things." Lance chuckled with a hug, "Oh, by the way, forgot to ask you, is Roman in good condition now?"

Not long ago, Kate's second son Roman celebrated his first birthday, but he didn't expect to have a high fever. Kate stayed at home in Australia for a long time.

"Very good, he's very good now. Thank you for your gift, although that little train has been occupied by Dashir." Kate's eyebrows couldn't help but smile.

"So, villain?" Lance pulled the topic back.

Kate smiled, "As long as it is a work directed by you, even if you just let me stand there and make a vase, I am willing. However, what I am even more curious about is that this is a commercial movie like "killing with a knife"? Or a commercial movie like "the day after tomorrow"?" The former has a very strict test of acting skills. The failure of the performance may lead to a crushing defeat in the entire movie; the latter is that computer special effects occupy the protagonist, and the existence of the actors is more about connecting the story.

Lance's answer seemed intriguing, "I plan to give myself a vacation."

But Kate immediately understood and nodded, "It's been heavy and dark for so long, you really need to change your mood." The answer made both of them smile tacitly. "How about it, are you ready to leave? Now everyone is in the 'state'."

Midnight has passed, and everything is quiet. The noise of the Sunset Tower Hotel has gradually settled down. It is not that people have begun to leave, but that people have begun to switch from collective carnival to private state. More people have entered the corner in groups of three or three to have "secret conversations", or are sitting on beach chairs and whispering. It seems that everyone has found the "friends" and entered the second stage of Oscar Night.

Lance smiled bitterly, "There are still a few meetings to go on." "Raging Road" is not easy to make a bloody road in the summer season. In addition to Chaos Pictures' own efforts, it also requires the cooperation of the news media. Lance's mission tonight is not over yet. "Many times, I think there is no difference between me and the phone girl. Once a phone call, I will be on call."

Kate took another sip of whiskey, "Ha, if the phone girl is like you, and calls the police directly if you disagree, then Hollywood will be in chaos." Putting the cup aside, Kate let out a long sigh, "Okay, I have some tasks to be carried out, otherwise after I get home in the evening, my public relations team will be frightened again." After that, Kate did not be polite anymore, pulled his evening dress and walked towards the hall gracefully.

"Lance!" There was no need to wait at all, and the shouts next to him immediately rang out. Lance retracted his gaze, turned his head with a smile, and started socializing again.

Compared to the Oscar ceremony, the Oscar night organized by Vanity Fair obviously took more energy. When Percy sent Lance back to the apartment, it was already three in the morning. When he opened the door, he saw Theo sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. A soft light supported all the darkness around him, and the air was filled with the warmth of home. "Where are they?" Lance untied his tie, took off his blazer, and looked around. Neither Ian nor Gowan saw.

"Stay rest." Theo put the newspaper on the table, got up and walked towards the kitchen, "Ian is going to rush to New York today, and there are many things happening there recently, so he goes to rest first." Theo briefly explained that as for Gao Wen... he still has no way to get rid of his athlete's habits, although it has been two months since he officially retired.

While speaking, Theo walked out with a cup of warm honey water and handed it to Lance, "Gowen bought a cream cake." This is the meaning of the inquiry. They all knew that Lance probably had no time to eat tonight. Lance waved his hand, "I ate something at the Sunset Tower Hotel." Lance took the honey water and fell on the sofa, feeling the softness of the sofa slowly falling into the sofa. "Huh, the jet lag is still chaotic now, and I'm not sure what time I am now." Continuous long flights, coupled with today's busyness, Lance only felt that he was hollowed out.

"We can rest for a few days next." Theo sat down on the single sofa next to him and said in a deep voice.

Lance took a sip of honey water, "I hope, but the opportunity tonight will come to my door." After pausing for a moment, Theo didn't make any sound, just looked at Lance quietly. Lance knew that Theo was always like this, and it was not easy to snatch his appetite, so Lance did not continue to insist, and simply said, "Marvel Studios asked me to shoot their next work, the focus was to get rid of the large studios and work with us to shoot independently."

Even though he was as calm as Theo, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression, "Cooperation, what kind of way to cooperate?"

Ian's main work is now focused on short-selling operations in New York, and he has exhausted all his energy to accumulate original funds for Chaos Pictures. Therefore, Chaos Pictures is temporarily operating under Theo's management. Although he is a lawyer, Theo's management ability must not be underestimated, and his focus is naturally different from that of Lance.

Lance put the drinking cup on the table, "They hoped that we would be responsible for the investment, and then they would complete all the shooting, including the creative core and the production concept. But I hope we would be collaborative shooting, they invested in creativity, were responsible for the original creation and connection of the script, and then the production part was handed over to us."

Theo frowned slightly, "So, are you talking about giving up the initiative?" Since the core of the creation was decided by Marvel Studios, isn't that the chief producer?

Lance thought about it carefully. There was something wrong with his expression just now. "No, it should be said that we build the framework of the entire Marvel Universe, and they write the script and conceive the creativity, and then we complete the shooting. It's more like we outsourced part of the script to Marvel Studios."

In fact, this is the operation method of mature large companies. They master the core lifeline, and then the details are handed over to different departments and are responsible for different links. For example, Chaos Pictures and 20th Century Fox cooperate to "the day after tomorrow" and Paramount cooperates with "killing with a knife" can be regarded as the same. In the future, Disney will also operate in this way after successfully acquiring Marvel. However, one difference is that during the cooperation between Chaos Pictures and Marvel Pictures, Lance will serve as the helmsman, holding the highest decision-making power and controlling the development direction of the Marvel Universe, and then let the details be handed over to the team below to do it.

Theo immediately understood that Lance had placed Chaos Pictures at a higher level, "But we don't have such ability now." Even as expected, Chaos Pictures will rely on the real estate bubble and financial crisis to grow rapidly next year, Chaos Pictures is still not enough to watch than those large film companies with deep accumulation.
