Hollywood New Century

Chapter 189: Back to Los Angeles

"Slumdog Millionaire we filed a lawsuit, the MPAA doesn't seem to have the idea of ​​revising our movie rating, the movie was shot in a slum in India, and the overall tone of the plot was too tense, the judges didn't want to change the movie to a PG-13 rating ," Laura Collins reported to Simon, who was leaning on the chair, about the current Xinghai Films project.

Simon was looking at his audition profile for the "Twilight" heroine, and had just seen the one for 18-year-old Kristen Stewart.

Hearing Laura Collins' report, the corners of his eyes twitched, "Rejected?"

"Yes, but we're going to appeal to a higher committee, and Slumdog Millionaire is perfectly PG-13," Laura Collins explained.

"Well, this Kristen Stewart is good. She debuted as a child actress and has a lot of acting experience. "Twilight" is a youth idol drama anyway, so choose her," Simon said, adding Kristen Stewart's information Take it out and hand it to Laura Collins. The actor who can send it to Simon must meet the requirements of the movie.

"Okay, the age is just right, and it's very beautiful," Laura Collins took the information and said again:

"The 'Fake Marriage' project has been in contact with Sandra Bullock. She is also interested in this project, but she hopes that the male protagonist of the opposite play is a person in his early 20s, which will be very inconsistent!"

"Oh, of course not. The male protagonist in the script has just graduated from college. It can be changed to a young man who has just entered the workplace. After finding Sandra Bullock, of course, he will not find another young man in his 20s. ," The characters in the script are all in line with the actor's character.

"The Incredible Hulk released by Universal Pictures will be released next month, and now we Marvel Studios are cooperating with them in the pre-screening promotion of the movie, as the first superhero movie of the Marvel Universe system, although Marvel Studios is only the producer, but Mr. Kevin Feige is very concerned and very nervous," Laura Collins also knew that her boss also had high expectations for Marvel, and spent such a high price to acquire Marvel. Wei, I don't want to buy back a useless company.

"The Incredible Hulk, sigh!" Simon said and supported his forehead. Edward Norton had a lot of disputes with the producer and the publisher, and now he doesn't cooperate with the publicity.

"Mr. Jean Mayer, the president of Universal Pictures, has discussed the film with Mr. Kevin Feige and Ms. Nina Jacobson, but there is no good solution, Edward. Norton's ideas for the film and the producers and directors were too divided," cautions Laura Collins.

"Let's go back to Los Angeles. I need to understand the situation of "The Incredible Hulk". In any case, it is also the opening work of our Marvel Universe," Simon said. The Hulk and Iron Man are linked together. Not sure how to save the Hulk.

Los Angeles in May is already entering the summer season. The Mediterranean climate, the daytime temperature above 20°C, and the sea breeze from the Pacific Ocean are mild and pleasant.

The city of Santa Barbara is located 150 kilometers north of Los Angeles, backed by the Santa Yates Mountains and facing the Pacific Ocean. It is the seat of the county seat of Santa Barbara County.

In a mansion near the coast, Simon came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Emily Blunt, who had not seen him for a long time, pressed Simon on the sofa and wiped his hair for him.

"Dear, why did you choose to live here, more than 100 kilometers away from Hollywood?" Simon wondered, although the scenery of Santa Barbara is very good, but it's a bit far.

"I like it, you suggested that I choose Malibu or Santa Monica, but I think it's quieter and quieter here," Emily Blunt said, pulling Simon to the window, pointing to the view outside, laughing road:

"Look, the scenery is beautiful, and you are closer to nature!"

The mansion, valued at $4.5 million, covers a large area, with a built-up area of ​​more than 7,000 square feet, and the nearby land also belongs to the house.

"As long as you like it!" Simon smiled and said, it does look very elegant, this house was given to her by herself.

"Well, Simon, thank you!" Emily Blunt said and took the initiative to kiss Simon Parker's lips.

The pajamas were half unraveled, Simon saw the bite marks on the girl's chest, bowed his head and kissed with a smile: "It seems to be a little intense in the morning!"

Emily Blunt looked down and saw the teeth marks on her white chest, patted Simon on the chest, and said, "Yesterday you returned to Los Angeles from New York and came to me at night, Yang Zi seems very tired, unexpectedly You're in good spirits in the morning!"

"You are very busy this year, and I am too busy. I haven't seen you for a long time," Simon said, hugging the girl back to the sofa and sitting down.

Emily Blunt finished filming "Sunshine Cleaning" at the end of last year and joined the crew of "Child Abuse Suspect".

"The schedule of "Sunshine Cleaning" is scheduled for October by Xinghai Qixing Film. By then, I will also finish filming "The Young Queen Victoria" in the UK, just in time to promote it," Emily Blunt will be at the end of this month. I went to the UK to shoot this movie.

"'Sunshine Cleaning' was nominated for the Jury Prize for a feature film at this year's Saint Denis Film Festival, and its reputation is not bad." Simon didn't care too much, anyway, the production cost was only 5 million US dollars.

"Haha, if this movie wasn't released by Xinghai Qixing, it probably wouldn't be released so soon, and it would definitely be overwhelmed," Emily Blunt also understands that this kind of movie without much publicity is usually in the There are few resources available on the distribution, and it slowly shows its popularity by participating in some film festivals.

"The movie is okay, and the company has few projects this year. This kind of low-budget movie doesn't take up much resources," Simon said. After all, different movies have very different distribution strategies.

Simon suddenly found a hilltop mansion not far away, walked to the window and looked at it, Emily Blunt explained: "It was a large Italian-style villa, combining classical and modern styles, with a large area. !"

"Oh, is it for sale? The surrounding land is all there?" Simon had just discovered that, after all, it was a bit out of the ordinary, and there was a small river around.

"Yes, the building area is more than 16,000 square feet, with 8 rooms and 8 bathrooms, plus a recreation room, study, movie room, wine cellar, etc., and the entire 16 acres of land around it is also." Emily Blunt explained.

"Let's get in touch, that big manor, I think it's very good!" Simon really felt it at first glance.
