Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 154 Can I attract someone like you?
In Buckingham, England, Aaron flew over from the United States as the filming of Four Weddings and a Funeral was about to start;
After all, it is the first work of Dawn UK Films, and Aaron takes it very seriously!

The film's producers Graham Bradstreet and Richard Curtis, director Mike Newell, and leading actors Hugh Grant and Sophie Marceau gathered together;
At the same time, "The Crying Game" producer Stephen Woolley, director Neil Jordan, and main actors Forest Whitaker, Miranda Richardson, Stephen Rea and Jay Davidson also attended the banquet hosted by Dawn.

Sophie Marceau took Aaron's arm and said, "I thought you wouldn't come to England."

"After all, this is the first British film produced and invested in by Shuguang, so of course I have to come and see it!"

Aaron said, kissing the girl directly on the face, and looked at Jay Davidson, the new actor in "The Crying Game".

"No wonder he was chosen to play the transvestite character in the play, he's really suitable for the role!"

Although she is of black descent, her appearance is very feminine.

Sophie Marceau nodded. "I haven't seen The Crying Game yet. It's about transgender people, so it should be interesting."

Aaron smiled, "The theme is pretty much a political thriller and a love story, a dual crisis of political identity and sexual identity;"

"Through her films, the director examines the tough questions of life and death, sex and friendship, duty and loyalty, freedom and bondage, masculinity and femininity, and everything in between;"

"The highlight of the movie is definitely the reversal of the identity at the end, but this is also where the controversy of the movie lies."

After a while, Aaron started chatting with Stephen Woolley, the producer of "The Crying Game". "I heard that you almost went bankrupt making this movie?"

Stephen Woolley spread his hands and said, "The investment from Channel 4 in the UK and Japan is not enough for me to complete the filming;"

"My company only runs two small theaters in London, and this movie has really ruined my finances."

"But luckily the film turned out well. At least there are American distributors who are interested in it, right?"

Stephen Woolley said this with a smile. After all, the sale of the North American distribution rights has already made him a lot of money!

Aaron nodded. "It's quite good. The combination of politics and transgender love makes the film's concept extraordinary."

"Although it is extremely controversial, it will definitely win the favor of film critics and Academy judges."

There is no other reason, this kind of thing itself falls into the category of political correctness.

Then, he patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "As long as it performs well at the Oscars, the creators of "The Crying Game" will definitely receive the honor and benefits they deserve."

At the very least, these people will attract the attention of Hollywood, which will be of great benefit to their career advancement!

After chatting with Stephen Woolley, Hugh Grant and his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley came over to have a drink with Aaron.

"Thank you, Aaron!"

Hugh Grant thanked Aaron because he was chosen to play the leading actor. Now Sleepless in Seattle is still in theaters.

There is a lot of anticipation for the romantic comedy that Aaron Anderson is optimistic about.

Aaron smiled and said, "You are suitable for this. There are not many new generation male actors in the UK right now, so you have a lot of opportunities!"

"Haha, I'll lend you some good words."

Hugh Grant looked at his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley and said, "Honey, I'm going to the bathroom. Don't you have something to ask Aaron?"

"Now, the opportunity has come!"

"Aaron, nice to see you again," Elizabeth Hurley said, hugging him. "Yes, you're still as sexy and beautiful as ever!"

Aaron kissed the other person on the cheek.

Elizabeth Hurley took the opportunity to clasp Aaron's palms and said with a smile, "Aaron, I don't think I saw Catherine Zeta-Jones. Are you still in touch?"

Aaron smiled and said, "She's been doing some training lately. Maybe she'll be starring in a movie next!"

Elizabeth Hurley was stunned for a moment and bit her lower lip. "Is she a Hollywood movie heroine?"

Aaron nodded indifferently, "If nothing unexpected happens, that's it."

"Well, Aaron, can you tell me a little bit?"

Aaron thought for a moment and then said, "A western adventure action film directed by Ridley Scott, adapted from the story of Zorro!"

Anyway, the film project has been approved and is now in preparation. It is no secret.

"Really?" Elizabeth Hurley suddenly felt envious.

"I also filmed my first Hollywood work at the beginning of this year, an action film called Passenger 57 for Warner Bros.;"

"The male lead is the black movie star Wesley Snipes, and the film is about a high-altitude airplane hijacking;"

“Something similar to Die Hard!”

Aaron understood, "Oh, this is what you wanted to ask me just now, right?"

"Yeah, because this is my first time shooting a Hollywood movie."

"Sure, Hollywood action movies are still very popular right now. Shuguang is currently filming a road action movie called 'Speed', with a production budget of over 3000 million US dollars!"

Elizabeth Hurley shook her head. "The budget for Passenger 57 was only $1500 million. Because of the limited budget, many scenes were difficult to shoot.

"Besides, my role is just a female villain in the movie, the hijacker's second-in-command, disguised as a flight attendant to assist in the hijacking!"

Elizabeth Hurley understood that her role was just an embellishment in the movie, and that she was a sexy woman needed among a group of men;

Although there are some action scenes, she is actually just a vase role in the movie and does not appear that often.

Aaron looked at Elizabeth Hurley in front of him again. She was tall and extremely sexy, with a dual feeling of wildness and elegance!
"Perhaps after the movie is released, the sexy stewardess you play will leave an impression on the audience;"

"After all, women like you always have a fatal attraction to men."

Aaron casually consoled himself by saying that, after all, according to Elizabeth Hurley's introduction, this so-called "Passenger 57" was a low-budget, crudely made film that imitated "Die Hard";

I have no idea why it would be successful. Movies with black male protagonists are not very popular these days!

Dawn's "Boyz n the Hood," released last year, grossed $5700 million, almost the highest-grossing film with a black male lead.

Elizabeth Hurley smiled and said, "Aaron, can someone like me attract a man like you?"
