Chapter 439 make a phone call
"I've been to so many crews, and among all the leading actors, Daniel is the worst-in-comprehensive actor I've ever seen."
Sitting in a remote corner, Taylor pulled a wisp of curly hair, facing the Hogwarts Magic Academy students dining in the restaurant, saying, "Ryan, even that fool Kristen is better than Daniel."
"Oh, God bless you are willing to talk to me." Ryan said deliberately exaggeratedly, "Dear, this is a long few days."
"Who told you to go to such a fun place like Cannes, I won't take me with me." Taylor frowned and grimaced at him. "If there is another next time, I will definitely not talk to you for a week."
"Then why did you call George so early and call me over?" Ryan knew that Taylor just wanted to use this method to show his importance, and didn't care. "It's not that I heard you comment on their acting skills."
"Don't you have a role in the Gladiator in the afternoon?" Seeing the disbanded young actor, Taylor jumped out of the chair, "I just wanted you to come and pick us up to Northampton."
"We?" Ryan asked strangely.
"Hmm~" Taylor nodded and pointed to Miss All-Must who walked towards the dressing room. "There is no Emma's show in the afternoon. We made an appointment to go to Northampton to see the tiger."
"Dear, you are so well-informed."
There is only one gladiator left in the movie about Ryan, in which tigers are used. The crew specially contacted the circus and rented several Siberian tigers.
The two little girls obviously planned all this, Emma Watson greeted her mother. After Taylor got into Ryan's car, he arrived at the location of "Gladiator" in Northampton.
"You two..."
While sitting in front of the makeup mirror, Ryan solemnly reminded, "Alison, Charlotte, you must follow George and not approach those tigers."
Although they are tamed tigers, only God knows when they will have animalistic attacks.
"You're so verbose."
Perhaps it was a familiar relationship. Emma Watson had a tendency to move closer to Taylor. "We two are not little kids who like to be troubled, don't worry."
You two don’t like to be naughty? Ryan rolled his eyes helplessly. Fortunately, the two little girls usually like to make trouble, but they are still extremely serious in their business. They also know what to do and what not to do. Just let the bodyguards keep a close eye on them.
Ryan's opponent in the next scene will be Nicholas Powell, the special gladiator coach appointed by the crew, will wear the fully enclosed helmet and start a life-and-death battle with Ryan.
In addition, they were the tiger actors I found, but there was no need to worry about both of them. They would use several cameras to shoot in multiple directions. The closest distance between them and the tiger was fifteen feet away.
The scene of Maximos fighting with the tiger is not required to Ryan himself, so there are stunt actors and post-production special effects to complete.
"Maximos! Maximos! Maximos..."
More than 2,000 extras in the stands created a huge sound. Ryan carried a shield and sword and entered the arena from the passage, came to the opponent who was obviously one number one bigger than him, and grabbed a bunch of dust again...
Then, the sound of swords and axes colliding constantly sounded, and the two of them were not fast, and they followed the routine set in advance. Moreover, the fight was short shots. Every ten or twenty seconds, the director would stop the action, and then make appropriate adjustments based on Ryan and Nicholas Powell's performance just now.
"It turns out that they are so far away from the tiger. I still want to see Ryan fight the tiger."
The two little girls were sitting not far away and muttering, Taylor seemed to find it boring, "This fight is too fake and it's not good-looking at all."
"I heard from Director Columbus." Emma Watson sucked the juice and raised his head and said, "All shots involving action fights must be based on safety first. When we filmed "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", we used a large number of puppets as stand-in."
"Well, um, um... safety first." Taylor nodded in agreement. She was just joking with boredom just now.
Although she is only a little over ten years old, this smart girl still understands the importance of safety. She doesn't want one of her favorite people to face any danger.
When filming such a fierce fighting scene, minor injuries and minor collisions are inevitable. In fact, since the crew started, many stunt actors have been injured. Ryan himself pays great attention to this point. Except for the few times he has scratched his skin, he has not encountered many accidents.
Yesterday afternoon, he had already practiced this fight scene with Nicholas Powell several times. Although he sometimes made some fine adjustments, it did not have much impact.
Because Ridley Scott intends to use the short-shot quick switching performance technique, a large number of fighting scenes are needed here, and the scenes in the script are less than one page, and it is not until sunset that it is approaching the end.
And Nicholas Powell, who could beat Ryan up all over the ground, was defeated several times and lying on the ground to become a lamb to be slaughtered...
"We will shoot another spare fighting scene and we will be able to finish work today."
After a few words of advice to Ryan and Nicholas Powell, the action director returned to the back of the camera and shouted loudly, "The last scene today is here, be careful!"
Ryan nodded. This was his last scene in the movie. If Ridley Scott does not intend to increase the scene temporarily, he will be able to leave the crew tomorrow.
After Nicholas Powell pulled down the mask of his helmet and Ryan was ready to attack, the assistant director shouted loudly, "Scene 147, Act 56, start now!"
The crisp metal collision sounded again in the arena. Ryan used the tactic of close-fitting fighting. According to the pre-designed routine, he blocked the axe that Nicholas Powell cut with a sword, turned his wrist, twisted the axe with his sword, and flew up his right foot and kicked the opponent's calf.
Nicholas Powell's cooperation body tilted and he was about to fall to the ground. Perhaps the ground was covered with sand and gravel, which made his feet slip. His huge body, which was more than 200 pounds, was tightly pressed against Ryan, and then fell to the ground.
After all, he was not a professional fighter. Ryan was not ready to dodge at all. He just subconsciously took a step back to prevent the other party from hitting his body. However, his left foot, which had not been able to withdraw, was hit hard by Nicholas Powell's back, which led him to fall to the ground.
"God, Nicholas, you are so heavy!"
At the beginning, Ryan didn't feel anything. He even joked with Nicholas Powell. "Even a tiger can be smashed by you..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt a piercing pain coming from his left foot, even more severe than the time when the Lord of the Rings was injured. His face immediately turned pale, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"Hey, you two are getting up quickly." The staff had already rushed over and was about to help them up. Ryan quickly waved his hand to stop him, and shouted in the pain, "Doctor! I have injured my left foot!"
Nicholas Powell, who was a professional fighting man, turned over and sat up. Seeing the cold sweat on Ryan's forehead, he knew that it was not the time to say sorry. He shouted in a louder voice, "Hurry up! Let the doctor come here!"
Gripping his teeth hard, Ryan could only sigh in secret that his scene was about to end, but he was injured again. Shouldn't he be shooting an action scene?
Just as the doctor in the crew was examining Ryan, the two little girls followed behind George and hurriedly ran over. Taylor's little face was full of anxiety, and his big royal blue eyes were watery, as if he would cry at any time.
"Ryan! Ryan! Tell me you're okay! Tell me quickly!"
Seeing Ryan's cold sweat, this blonde girl who had never believed in God very much couldn't help but draw a cross on her chest, "God, please bless him..."
As he said that, two tears flowed down his cheeks.
"Dear... I'm fine!" Ryan showed a grey smile that was even worse than crying, and quickly colored George.
"Taylor, the doctor is checking Ryan, let's go aside first."
Hearing the bodyguard's words, the little girl nodded extremely well and pulled Emma Watson, who was also worried, to the side.
An hour later, Ryan lay on the bed of a private hospital in Northampton. Apart from the pain and sighing in disgrace, he couldn't say anything at this time.
This injury also awakened his distant memory. In his previous life, Russell Clowe had a broken foot when he was filming this video and he had only a sprained ankle. He was already lucky.
However, it is certain that you will be lying in bed for a while.
"It's all your fault, I scared me to tears."
When only his own people were left in the ward, Taylor was hoarse and muttered to vent his dissatisfaction, "I haven't cried like this for a long time, and my image is gone!"
"Okay, Alison, just sprained his ankle, it's no big deal." Ryan knew that she was loved by her sister, and she also regarded herself as her favorite brother. "You are a big girl, don't cry anymore in the future."
"Ryan." George pushed the door and walked in, "The car is ready."
"Yeah~" Ryan leaned against the hospital bed and said to the little girl, "Dear, it's time for you to go back."
"But I want to stay here with you." Taylor pouted in dissatisfaction.
"It's good to have George and the others." Ryan shook his head and reached out to rub her curly hair. "You can't take care of me now."
"Hmph~Hmph~ I'll see you after class tomorrow." The little girl knew that she would only cause trouble here, so she stood up and waved her hand to George, "I'll just go out by myself."
The car was parked in front of the small building in the ward. Taylor was carrying his bag sideways and walked along the corridor to the near the medical desk. He happened to see the phone in a conspicuous place and subconsciously stopped.
It seems... George hasn't informed Nicole and the others yet? Should he make a phone call?
