Full-time actor

After more than half a month of steady filming, "Joker" has finally come to its final scene.

Early in the morning.

The staff present were already busy, handling their duties meticulously.

Relatively speaking, everyone felt a sense of reluctance to part ways. The three months they spent together on set had given them an unprecedented and exhilarating experience.

Chen Yu, in particular, is a breath of fresh air in the world of directors.

You can feel his seriousness and attention to detail just by looking at his work.

"Listen, buddies!"

"We're about to have one last battle. After that, the Joker will return to the chaos of Gotham City."

"As for New York, there will be a work that we have written together."

what--

Chen Yu's words drew cheers from the crowd.

The final scene, the last one to be filmed, mainly consists of a frenzied dance on the steps and a blood-soaked coronation.

The first scene takes place on the way to the talk show, a key moment where Arthur's main personality leaves and the Joker personality completely takes over his body.

It must be said that this wild dance on the steps even became a classic in later generations.

As a result, many people have gone to the Joker Steps in the Bronx, New York, to take photos.

This is sufficient proof of the impact of this film.

Act Two.

The Joker, who was rescued during the riot at the end of the film, painted a smiley face on his own face with his own blood.

They cheered and danced on the roof of the police car, a final act of madness.

The reason Chen Yu put these two scenes on the same day as the final scene was undoubtedly to present the final demonized state.

him at the moment.

After experiencing so much, he had long since severed his conscience.

A heartless clown wreaks havoc throughout Gotham City; this will be his final act of revelry.

Chen Yu had already made preparations.

His makeup was much heavier than before, and his hair had turned from brown to green.

His suit was also impeccably groomed, without a single wrinkle.

There wasn't a single line of dialogue.

But his actions and expressions can convey his current mood.

That extreme ecstasy of celebrating new life was mixed with the despair of a painful, fruitless struggle.

The whole dance looked incredibly bizarre.

He exaggerated every movement, releasing the pressure he had suffered in the past.

The red paint on his face made his smile even more ferocious, but he no longer cared about anyone's gaze.

He leaped forcefully onto the steps, inhaling the smoke almost obliviously into his lungs.

Two figures appeared indistinctly at the top of the steps.

"Arthur, we need to talk."

Shay Wheatham shouted behind Chen Yu, and his words made Chen Yu flee quickly.

"Stop right there, Arthur!"

Chen Yu sped along the road, showing no intention of letting those two guys have their way.

Until they crashed into a speeding car.

Before filming, Chen Yu and his team had already blocked off this section of the road.

Nolan himself suggested that the scene could be filmed using camera angles, since a real collision with a speeding car could potentially harm Chen Yu.

but.

This suggestion was not approved by Chen Yu.

Thinking about it carefully, it's understandable. He didn't use any safety measures when he jumped off the building with his bare hands. This guy is really reckless when it comes to filming.

The moment Chen Yu was knocked down, he quickly got up and ran towards the subway.

It wasn't until he entered the carriage that he noticed the changes around him. He realized that, without realizing it, the clown had become an object of admiration for those at the bottom of society.

The entire carriage was filled with people wearing clown masks.

Shay Wheatham and his men’s desperate shouting clearly provoked a riot in the carriage.

A large crowd surged forward, quickly pushing Shay Wheatham out of the carriage, followed by a hail of punches raining down on the two men.

Chen Yu looked at the person on the ground with a provocative expression.

His makeup had become blurred, but it still couldn't hide his provocative smile.

The image freezes.

Nolan looked at Chen Yu on the monitor, which gave him goosebumps.

"OK!"

I made a gesture unconsciously.

"Cool!"

"I guarantee that the clown's dance on the steps will become a classic."

As Nolan said this, he subconsciously gave Chen Yu a thumbs up.

The rest of the crew is ready, and they will now proceed to film the final scene.

It is also the ending of the entire movie.

A police car slowly drove into the range of the surveillance camera.

Chen Yu sat in the police car, his gaze occasionally sweeping across the scenery outside the window, his expression gradually shifting from loneliness and desolation to maniacal laughter.

He suddenly felt very gratified.

The situation outside the car at this moment can no longer be described as chaotic.

The clown's actions sparked unrest throughout the city, with countless citizens spontaneously donning clown masks to follow him and vent their frustrations.

The entire city of Gotham was shrouded in smoke.

They set fire to the cars of the elites parked on the roadside, cheering for their actions.

Chen Yu's smile grew increasingly arrogant.

He was sitting in the back seat of the police car, convulsing uncontrollably.

Her gaze remained fixed on the view outside the window, her makeup slightly blurred by tears of excitement.

As a result, he now looks exceptionally ferocious.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Chen Yu smiled and looked at the police officer who was driving with a provocative expression.

"Stop laughing, you freak, it's not funny."

"Because of what you did, the whole city has rioted."

After hearing the officer's words, Chen Yu slowly moved closer to the location ahead.

His face was pressed against the protective netting.

His gaze, sharp as a venomous snake, fell upon the police officer in front of him.

"I know."

Isn't it beautiful?

boom!
Just as Chen Yu finished speaking, the car was hit hard on the side by a truck.

The fragments flew towards Chen Yu's location.

Everything seemed to come to an abrupt end.

Faced with this situation, those who create chaos and imitate clowns become even more excited.

They rushed to the very middle of the road, their screams already piercing the sky.

The surroundings were filled with firelight.

Like the spoils they celebrate.

Just then.

A man wearing a clown mask got off the truck and slowly walked to where Chen Yu was.

The sense of imminent danger on camera heightened everyone's anticipation.

Then.

All the people wearing clown masks gathered around the police car.

They carefully lifted the unconscious Chen Yu out of the car. The people who had created the chaos waved flags and shouted, their extreme frenzy driving them closer to Chen Yu's location.

OMG!

This was simply a chaotic mess.

Nolan's heart pounded; he couldn't even imagine what kind of uproar it would cause if this clip were broadcast.

The surrounding crowd also panicked and ran indiscriminately.

Brett Cullen quickly escorted his wife and children towards the corner of the movie theater.

They clearly didn't notice a guy wearing a clown mask following them.

"Wayne, you reaped what you sowed!"

"No, buddy."

Brett Cullen instinctively wanted to stop the clown in front of him.

The next second, two gunshots sent him to his death.

Chen Yu lay in the taxi, his head bleeding profusely from the impact.

"clown!"

"clown."

"Joker".

Cheers erupted from all directions. Chen Yu coughed heavily twice, then looked around.

"Clown! Get up!"

All the followers wearing clown masks surrounded Chen Yu.

They cheered with joy.

They seemed to be enjoying the victory of the moment.

Chen Yu got up in the police car. He looked at the situation in front of him, his expression filled with a strange madness.

A smile gradually crept onto his lips.

He twisted his limbs again to celebrate the moment.

At the same time, he slowly touched the blood at the corner of his mouth and then smeared it upwards along the curve of his mouth.

Finally, an exaggerated clown smile appeared on his face.

More and more followers are getting closer.

They waved their hands, excited and thrilled by what the clown had done.

The image freezes.

Thus, the Joker's myth will finally come to pass.

"Cut!"

As Chen Yu's voice rang out, all the extras present threw their props into the air.

They accomplished this epic moment.

now.

Nolan and all the staff rushed forward, surrounding Chen Yu, a glory they had achieved together.

"Filming has wrapped."

"It was an absolutely exhilarating moment."

The others present cheered enthusiastically, lifting Chen Yu high into the air.

He lost 47 pounds to play the role of the Joker.

As for Chen Yu now, he is completely skin and bones.

They could lift it up with ease.

“Heal Chan!”

Cheers echoed in their ears as they celebrated the end of filming "Joker," while also anticipating the upcoming release of "The Myth."

"Whoo~"

"It's finally over."

Nolan looked at Chen Yu, whose makeup hadn't been completely wiped off, making him look somewhat disheveled.

"Next comes post-production."

Chen Yu poured a lot of effort into this film, which was also the first step in fulfilling his promise.

"Let's go? To the wrap party!"

In Nolan's view, after this is over, he probably doesn't know when he will be able to work with Chen Yu again.

Although this time he was acting as a deputy producer, Nolan still felt an unprecedented enthusiasm.

One film that he wrote, directed, and starred in was enough for Chen Yu to gain a foothold in Hollywood.

"Go!"

"Let's celebrate this final moment."

At Chen Yu's command, everyone present gathered around.

After nearly three months of spending time together, they have developed a deep affection for each other.

……

Le Bernardin!

This world-class restaurant is arguably one of the best in all of New York.

The head chef of this restaurant is the world-renowned Eric Ripper.

The group had now arrived at the restaurant.

Chen Yu waved his hand and booked the entire restaurant.

As a result, the Joker crew was everywhere you looked, at least that way their wrap party wouldn't be disturbed by others.

"OH! Chan."

Just as everyone was about to walk into the private room, Eric Ripper had already walked towards the direction where Chen Yu and the others were.

His face showed a look of considerable admiration.

Bruce Lee!

Besides his love for cooking, Eric Ripper is also quite fond of Chinese Kung Fu.

As for kung fu superstar Bruce Lee, he was his most admired idol.

then.

When Chen Yu's film "Bruce Lee" was released, he couldn't wait to go to the cinema to watch it. He thought it would damage Bruce Lee's reputation, but to his surprise, Chen Yu's every move seemed to be Bruce Lee in the present day.

I like you very much!

“I have seen every movie after Bruce Lee.”

After hearing Eric Ripper's words, Chen Yu smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.

"Thank you."

"It is my honor."

Nolan looked at the situation before him and couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.

It seems that Chen Yu's fame has already spread far and wide, both at home and abroad, and he is now a household name.

"Cheers!"

The group raised their glasses high.

Everyone's face was filled with joy and reluctance. During their three months on the set of "Joker," director Chen Yu gave them a unique experience.

"Director Chen, I hope we will have the opportunity to work together again next time."

Robert De Niro raised his glass.

He truly admired this young man in front of him, a filmmaker from China who was able to thrive in the extremely xenophobic world of Hollywood.

In particular, they have achieved the strength and level they have today.

It's unlikely that anyone else would have such perseverance.

“Of course, Robert.”

"We always have the opportunity to continue our cooperation, as long as you are willing."

Chen Yu had already planned what would happen after fulfilling his agreement with Liu Yifei. If things went according to plan, he could indeed continue to cooperate with these people.

Hey! Chan.

Zazie Beetz came to Chen Yu's side, her reluctance on her face particularly evident.

"Thank you for choosing me to play Sophie Dumont among so many people."

Chen Yu smiled.

To be honest, he originally thought that 20-year-old Zazie Beetz couldn't possibly have the acting skills of a 28-year-old.

However, Zazie Beetz truly impressed him, portraying the character of Sophie Dumont quite perfectly.

The rest of the people present walked over to where Chen Yu was.

They couldn't wait to say goodbye to Chen Yu.

After all, they knew that after this parting, they didn't know when they would see each other again.

Some of the main cast members may have the opportunity to reunite, such as at film festivals or during the film's public release and promotion.

but--

These staff members probably won't have that opportunity.

Everyone present came over to offer a toast, and Chen Yu could only accept them all.

Such a happy day is truly worth celebrating.

After several rounds of drinks...

Everyone present was already drunk.

Even the usually meticulous and composed Nolan was completely drunk at this moment.

"Chan".

"You wove a complex dream for the Joker, allowing everyone to understand the pain behind him."

After hearing Nolan's words, Chen Yu shrugged.

The collapse and rebirth of an extreme individual, struggling and denouncing this society in order to gain equal benefits.

perhaps.

Everyone should indeed reflect on this. (End of Chapter)
