Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 257 White Supremacy

Mario Casal really had nothing to say in response to Aaron's question. After all, even "Terminator 3", which James Cameron had agreed to direct, had not yet been finalized!

Now, Carlock wants to find James Cameron to develop "Spider-Man", which is indeed too impatient.

Watching Mario Casal leave, Aaron leaned back in his chair and took a sip of his wine. "The abacus has hit me on the head. It's really surprising!"

On the other hand, Dawn Steele was surprised when he bought the script of Good Will Hunting from Castle Rock Entertainment for $100 million.

Because, no matter how you look at it, "Good Will Hunting" is similar to an artistic and warm film. According to Shuguang's practices in recent years, the main direction is commercial films.

New Line Cinema, which was acquired by Turner Broadcasting along with Castle Rock, is preparing to shoot the nonsensical comedy "Dumb and Dumber" starring Jim Carrey;
Because when New Line Cinema signed a contract with Jim Carrey, "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" had not yet been released, so his salary was still not very high, only $58.

At night, the Beverly Crest community.

Aaron lay in a large and luxurious bathtub, with the sexy Sophie Marceau lying in his arms. "You were in Los Angeles when the earthquake happened, right?"

"Yeah, it scared me," Aaron said as he and Jennifer Aniston were lying in bed at the time, and it was definitely a vivid memory.

Sophie Marceau smiled and kissed Aaron, "It's a good thing you're okay, otherwise, it would be a shame!"

"Ha, that's true. If something happens to me, this huge inheritance of mine will probably be embezzled," Aaron doesn't have any relatives or anything like that now.

"Okay, you're still young and in good health, what could possibly happen?"

Sophie Marceau said this and kissed the man on the lips with fiery passion and the boldness of the French kiss!

“By the way, Four Weddings and a Funeral received a lot of nominations at this year’s British Academy Film Awards;”

"You should be going to London in a few days, right?"

After the kiss ended, Aaron asked Sophie Marceau in his arms.

"It's already been arranged. I'm going over there, and I'm European!"

Sophie Marceau will indeed travel to London with the crew of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" to attend the British Academy Film Awards.

"Why, do you want to go over there too?"

Aaron shook his head. "The St. Denis Film Festival just ended, and the Berlin International Film Festival is coming soon."

"I might need to focus on some movies, so I probably won't have time to go to the UK."

"It's up to you," Sophie Marceau said to Aaron in a laissez-faire manner. "Recently, a producer contacted me and said that Mel Gibson wanted to make a movie about William Wallace, the leader of the Scottish War of Independence."

"There's already a ready-made script, and the investors are Paramount and 20th Century Fox!"

When Aaron heard this, he immediately thought of it. Isn't this the epic film "Braveheart" directed and starred by Mel Gibson? "I know this. The script was adapted by screenwriter Randall Wallace and was discovered by Mel Gibson. He liked the story very much.

"So, I'm going to direct this script!"

Aaron looked at Sophie Marceau in his arms and asked, "Mel Gibson should be directing and acting in the film himself, right?"

Sophie Marceau nodded, "Mel Gibson originally hoped to focus solely on directing Braveheart, with someone else playing the lead role of William Wallace."

"However, the investor, Paramount, requested that Mel Gibson himself play the leading male role, so that it would have more appeal!"

Aaron smiled and said, "Now, Mel Gibson's influence is undeniable. He also directed his debut film, The Man Without a Face, two years ago, and he also directed and starred in it."

The film "The Man Without a Face" tells the story of a teacher who was disfigured while saving his student and the mutual redemption between him and a tragic boy. It is adapted from a novel.

However, because the movie "The Man Without a Face" changed the protagonist's homosexual orientation and some of the plot in the process of adapting the novel into a movie, the director and actor Mel Gibson was accused of homophobia by the media supervision organization, which had a negative impact on Mel Gibson's image in Hollywood.

As for Braveheart, Paramount and 20th Century Fox are collaborating on distribution in North America and international markets, respectively;

This also shows that Paramount has increased its cooperation with other film companies after being taken over by Sherry Lansing!
Sophie Marceau looked at Aaron and said, "The Braveheart crew seemed to have invited Sean Connery and Jodie Foster before;"

"It's just that both of them rejected the script."

Sean Connery would definitely not want to play a small supporting role, and Jodie Foster is a two-time Oscar winner, so it is even more impossible for her to play a role like a vase;
As a Frenchwoman, Sophie Marceau is just right for playing the French princess in the play. Sophie Marceau has gained a certain degree of fame now, but the gap between her and the top Hollywood actresses is still obvious!
Then, Aaron kissed Sophie Marceau on the lips and said, "Don't worry, Mel Gibson is capable and famous enough;"

"Even if his personal ethics are questionable, he is undoubtedly a top Hollywood star."

Mel Gibson can be described as a representative of white supremacists, hating Jews and people of color;
At the same time, Mel Gibson is also a believer of ultra-conservative Catholicism and is hostile to homosexuals, Jewish women, and people of color.

……

At the same time, with the announcement of the Oscar nominations, "The Piano Lesson" received 8 Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actress;
At the just-concluded Berlin International Film Festival, Tom Hanks, who won the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor for "Philadelphia", was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor!

At the Oscar nominations banquet at the Samuel Gerwin Theatre in Beverly Hills, Aaron walked around the crew of Dawn;

Unexpectedly, I met Winona Ryder, who was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for "The Age of Innocence".

"Winona, you won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress last month, and I didn't have the chance to congratulate you yet;"

"Now, you've been nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. That's great!"

Winona Ryder had just finished filming "Little Women", a movie of the same name adapted from the famous novel. She smiled slightly at Aaron's congratulations.

"Thank you."
