Chapter 95 Potential Actors

“Oh—ah—wow—drink—”

In the screening hall, a rough and stern shout sounded, which was extremely heroic and majestic, full of unyielding momentum, just like Leonida, who stood in the hot spring pass in the legend.

Of course, this is Matthew's idea, because the person who howled was the savage leader he played!

The screen is closer from a distance, and the community of barbarian warriors on the back as the background has been blurred. The only person in the whole shot is highlighted by the barbarian leader.

The camera changed from a long view to a close-up, focusing entirely on Matthew's character, and the savage leader held up the warhammer with the totem and roared again with an angry roar.

“Oh—ah—wow—drink—”

Matthew didn't know what others felt, but he felt that the roar was quite ecstatic.

Compared to the flashes of "Soul Moving Girl", this time the character's close-up shots took more than five seconds!

Matthew subconsciously looked at both sides. Both sides were actors in the crew, and they didn't know them. He sighed secretly. In fact, what he wanted to do most now was to point to the barbarian leader on the screen and say to others - Have you seen it? This is what I acted like!

However, if you think about this kind of thing in your head, he won’t really do it, it would be too embarrassing.

Matthew licked his lips and continued to look down. Soon he appeared close-up again, and the savage leader died gloriously under the siege of the Roman legion.

At this point, his character completely withdrew from the film.

Matthew estimated it himself, and the two close-up shots and other miscellaneous appearances should be between four and five minutes in the film.

"The first film appeared in less than five seconds, and the second film appeared in more than four minutes." He murmured in his heart, "It's already very good."

Although he envies celebrity actors like Joaquin Phoenix on the red carpet, Matthew is actually very clear that he is definitely a lucky person compared to most ordinary people who enter Hollywood.

In the later time, Matthew focused on watching the movies, especially the performances of the two starring actors Russell Clow and Joaquin Phoenix, which were the biggest concern.

Actors who can reach their level are not lucky enough, and their own strength must be above the level.

Especially Russell Clow, according to Helen Herman, this Australian actor is the representative of Hollywood performance school, and "Gladiator" is his pinnacle.

Whether it is the expressionist or the methodist, Matthew believes that there are things worth learning from when he can become a big star.

As far as he knows, Russell Clow is full of problems. Even Ridley Scott is a headache when he plays a big shot. He is a very difficult star to serve. But once he enters the work state, he feels like he has become a different person and is completely devoted to it. Most of the action scenes in the film are played in person.

It is said that he had a fracture in a fight scene.

Of course, this is what Matthew heard about, and it is not ruled out that the crew or Russell Clown's side deliberately released fake news in order to create a false head.

After participating in the media news promotional activities of "Brothers", Matthew gradually understood that many behind-the-scenes footage used for promotion are too much moisture. In order to create news that attracts attention, fraud based on certain facts is probably a common phenomenon in Hollywood crews.

The video is very exciting, at least Matthew looks good, and he feels like an epic tragic.

After the show ended, the main cast members of the crew had to hold a press conference. Matthew was not qualified to attend, so he called the Cadillac and took the car home directly.

The next day, he went to the clothing rental company to return the clothes, and settled the accounts with three companies. After finishing this, it was noon. He went to the newsstand to buy a bunch of newspapers and magazines, found a McDonald's, ordered a random burger and fries, and found a quiet corner to read the newspaper while eating.

After Matthew finished gnawing a burger, he did not read the newspaper immediately. Instead, he organized all the entertainment layouts of the newspapers together, put the other layouts in a handbag, and read them after he got home at night.

As a super big production that began to be released in the summer of 2000, "Gladiator" unexpectedly appeared on the front page of many newspaper entertainment pages.

"The Gladiator not only presents the competition for the cold weapon war in the past magnificent light and shadow, but it is even more rare that this is a unique epic blockbuster. It focuses not on the long history, but on the foundation of extremely dramatic techniques and tragic colors, perfectly shaping Maximus played by Russell Clow. The film not only allows the audience to deeply understand the protagonist's inner patience, loneliness and courage, but also sublimates the content of the movie to a matter of love and death at the end of the end..."

After reading this comment, Matthew began to look at it at a glance. The focus of the comments was on director Ridley Scott and the male lead Russell Clow, and also mentioned Joaquin Phoenix. As for other actors, let alone Matthew, there was not even the heroine Connie Nelson.

After looking through other pages, he threw the newspaper aside and then went to see the second one. "Gladiator" was also the focus of the report, but like the previous newspaper, the focus was on Ridley Scott and Russell Clow.

Matthew shook his head, found no content about him, and changed to another newspaper.

Yesterday, many reporters took photos of him on the red carpet, but they couldn’t be published by everyone, right?

After flipping through the newspaper four or five points, Matthew sighed. There were many newspapers and magazines publishing photos, but he was not seen.

Not to mention the photos, there is no text. Even gossip tabloids like "American News" have not mentioned him.

Matthew was depressed for a while, and gradually realized that the scandal between him and Britney had long been outdated, and he was not famous enough, so the role he played was optional, so naturally there was no one paying attention to it.

The entertainment industry is a forgetful circle.

After putting away the newspaper, Matthew picked up several entertainment magazines published on the weekend. The first one he picked up was Entertainment Weekly, which is a heavyweight entertainment publication under Warner Bros., which has a certain influence in the industry.

Even the tabloids were not published, so the possibility of such heavyweight publications was even smaller. Matthew was dipped in one hand with a chips dipped in tomato sauce, and quickly flipped the magazines with the other hand.

"This is……"

He seemed to see a familiar figure, and quickly stopped flipping the magazine's hand, turned back two pages, and a huge photo appeared in front of him.

That was a full-body photo of him on the red carpet yesterday!

"I..." Matthew threw away the fries and scratched his head, "I'm on Entertainment Weekly?"

After looking at the photos again, he was sure that this was the scene when he walked on the red carpet yesterday. I vaguely remembered that it was not long after getting off the car.

This photo is one of the horizontal photos on this page, and there is a photo of him wearing a paratrooper suit in the 101st Airborne Division next to it. Matthew only took a look and remembered that this was a photo taken by the crew before the filming started. In addition to these two photos, there are photos of two other actors in casual clothes and military uniforms on this page, which are clearly two people interviewed together.

Matthew remembered it. After the last interview, he paid special attention to the media that the crew mainly cooperated with, but only published Damian Lewis' interview, and the interviews of three people, including him, were missing. Now it seems that the crew is intentional, probably to use continuous publicity to maintain the popularity of "Brothers" in the media.

Below each actor's photos, there are corresponding reports.

This is for the promotion of "Brothers", and the report must be saying good things about them.

"The potential actor in Hollywood is rising - Matthew Horner!"

Matthew saw this somewhat exaggerated title under his two photos.

In addition to the refined version of Matthew's interview, the reporter who wrote the report also gained popularity.

"Matthew Horner, who is only twenty years old, has only been in Hollywood for a year, but has starred in the Oscar-winning film "The Soul Girl". Universal Pictures invested $100 million and directed by Ridley Scott. They are all starring big stars like Angelina Jolie, Renona Ryder and Russell Clow. Now they have played the important role of Ronald Spears in "Brothers". Their career has developed smoothly, making people look forward to his future..."

Behind them are some praises about how he is dedicated in "Brothers".

Of course, all of these are for promotional dramas.

Even so, Matthew was in a good mood after watching it. Although the scandal with Britney caused by Ilena Poyal was reported by the media at the time, this was the first time that he had appeared in a newspaper because of a movie and a character.

After looking through the remaining magazines, seeing that there was no other content related to him, Matthew put away the book "Entertainment Weekly". Just like "The Soul-Entertainment Girl" and "Gladiator", he believed that this magazine was also a memorable existence.

Back in the rented apartment, the magazine was placed in a special suitcase by Matthew. The boxes contained things that were very meaningful to him, such as the first script and the first formal contract with the crew.

In other words, this box records every important stage he has gone through.

In the following two days, in addition to paying appropriate attention to "Gladiator", Matthew was basically repeating his planned life and also called Helen Hermann and urged her to contact her for her new job.

Although "Brothers" is still far from playing, it is already a thing of the past for him. Matthew will not be able to live a life of life. After all, it is still too far from the goal of Hollywood stars.

On a new Monday morning, he had just finished breakfast, picked up his pen and tried to write something, and received a call from Helen Hermann.
