"What do you do when you're the only one left in the world?"

Walking in the studio, and hearing the question of Guillermo del Toro wearing disc glasses, Matthew stopped in front of a somewhat dilapidated set house, thought about it, and said seriously, "If it is in the In New York, I'd jump off the Empire State Building."

Guillermo del Toro pushed up his glasses, "That's an unexpected answer."

Matthew shrugged slightly, "I don't even have anyone to talk to. It's better to die than to live."

The two walked along the aisle and continued to walk forward. There were several people in front, leading a German Shepherd dog.

"Hey, Carl."

Seeing the German Shepherd, Matthew took the initiative to meet him. The German Shepherd named Carl immediately circled around him and sat on the ground after hearing the dog trainer's order.

This is his only companion in the film.

Matthew has been with this dog a lot these days, and as a filming partner, he had to get acquainted as soon as possible.

Carl is not only well-trained, but also a veteran Hollywood actor, and the crew pays him and his owner more than Alexandra Daddario as the supporting actress.

It's not uncommon in Hollywood for animal actors to be paid more than main actors.

Matthew is basically familiar with this dog, and the crew and him never thought of directing Carl directly. When shooting, they mainly rely on trainers.

As in the past few days, after taking the leash, accompanied by the trainer, Matthew took Carl for a walk in the studio, and fed him some dog food. After nearly an hour, he did not Find director Guillermo del Toro again, and continue to discuss things such as scripting and shooting.

"If there's only one human left in the world." Guillermo del Toro, standing in a laboratory scene, asked Matthew again, "then what's the best way for him to survive?"

Unlike the last joking question, Guillermo del Toro was obviously asking as a director, and Matthew thought about it for a while before saying, "I think it's absolutely okay to be alone in a silent world. Drives people crazy, and what's even scarier than that is 'living' with those special guests in this film, those once well-dressed 'humans' who are now hideous."

The two were not discussing nihilistic topics, but Akiva Goldsman's finalized script.

Matthew also brought the topic to the script, "It can be said that the story of the script itself puts human beings in a situation that can be called a desperate situation, but the space for them to survive is very limited."

Guillermo del Toro nodded, then walked towards the DVD store opposite the lab, and said as he walked, "Therefore, we need to see the lonely back of the male protagonist and his 'Elaborate arrangement' in order to relieve one's lonely living environment."

Speaking of which, Guillermo del Toro walked into the DVD store, stood beside the dummy that wasn't in place by the container, and said to Matthew, "Whether he goes to the DVD store to rent discs as he usually does, it doesn't matter. As well as 'talking' with passers-by dressed as mannequins, these detailed shots all reflect the essence of the hero's loneliness to survive."

"So!" Guillermo del Toro turned to look at Matthew and said, "I need you to use your personal performance to express all the loneliness that seems absurd but tears of joy at the beginning of the movie!"

Matthew walked over to Guillermo del Toro, looked at the dummies, and said confidently, "I'm ready."

Guillermo del Toro nodded and said, "The power of belief is the biggest driving force to support the hero's survival, the ability to perceive and recognize external things, and the improvement of self-awareness is what human beings call it. For human reasons. And when the external factors that support these characteristics are lost, how long can humans survive in that fragile shell?"

Faced with this question, Matthew was unable to answer. To be precise, it was a bit too esoteric. How could someone like him consider such a question based on a script?

The script of "I Am Legend", in his eyes, is purely a movie script with a strong sense of entertainment, not to mention psychological enlightenment, and it will not let a layman like him suddenly realize the philosophy of life.

Those are all issues that the director should consider, he is just a commercial star actor.

Guillermo del Toro is a very thoughtful director, as he heard from Akiva Goldsman and Helen Herman.

In front of this kind of director, Matthew didn't bother to pretend, and said directly, "This is a difficult question to answer."

Guillermo del Toro reached out and patted a dummy in front of him, but did not give an answer, but said, "The male protagonist carefully arranges these seemingly ridiculous and helpless 'fake environments', which is a reminder to himself It can also be identified as a measure of human beings. If humans are separated from these exchanges and activities, the rate of degradation of human beings may also be alarmingly fast.”

Matthew didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

Frankly speaking, discussing this with a director, he really can't keep up with the rhythm.

But Matthew is still listening very carefully to Guillermo del Toro's words. Every director has his own style, even Michael Bay's. Most of the time when shooting is performed by the actors. Adapt to the director's style.

Unless you can get to the point of Tom Cruise.

Staying in the studio until 4 p.m., Matthew went to take Carl around again, then left Warner Studios and drove himself to Los Angeles International Airport to pick up Alexandra, who had just returned from New York - D'Addario.

"Is it done in New York?"

Putting Alexandra Daddario's suitcase in the trunk, Matthew got in the car and asked, "The crew is about to start filming."

Alexandra Daddario sat in the co-pilot, fastened her seatbelt, and said, "I'm done, I'm taking a year off."

Matthew started the car and slowly left the airport, "Anna, are you planning to stay here for a long time?"

"Yeah." Alexandra Daddario loosened her seat belt. "In the past two years, I have also figured out that the career of an actor is still suitable for me."

She smiled and said, "My father asked me to study for a lawyer, but I had a headache when I saw those laws."

At the red light at the intersection ahead, Matthew stepped on the brakes, and after the car stopped, he turned to look at Alexandra Daddario. The temperature in Los Angeles at the end of September is high, and Alexandra Daddario Ao was dressed very coolly, with a white sling t-shirt on his upper body, still with a low-cut design, sitting on the co-pilot, the black seat belt passed through his chest, creating a bottomless dent...

Matthew touched his nose involuntarily, and quickly turned around to avoid crashing into the mountain with his car.

Alexandra Daddario doesn't fit in the co-pilot at all! He murmured in his heart, just as the intersection turned into a green light, he hurriedly started the car and drove forward.

"Or Amanda's place?" Matthew asked.

"Well." Alexandra Daddario moved the seat belt again, and seemed uncomfortable, "I plan to stay in Los Angeles for a long time this time, stay with Amanda for the time being, and then find a suitable one as soon as possible. house."

Matthew turned to the road leading to the Westwood District and said, "Amanda has been very busy recently, so I guess I can't help you."

Amanda has been communicating with the UNHCR, Skydance Films and Warner Bros. to determine the right time to ship a large amount of supplies to Africa with great fanfare.

Alexandra Daddario thought about it and said, "Let me go back and ask Helen, isn't there a department in the company that specializes in this kind of thing?"

Matthew suddenly thought of something, "How about you come to live with me?"

As soon as he said it, he realized the ambiguity, and before Alexandra Daddario didn't respond, he explained, "I have a detached house in the northern suburbs of Burbank, and I'm moving to Beverly Hills. I lived there all the time, and then it was vacant."

Alexandra Daddario turned to look at Matthew, as if thinking.

Matthew said indifferently, "It's very close to North Hollywood, the San Fernando Valley and downtown Burbank~www.readwn.com~ It's just a few minutes from the interstate highway, at most twenty minutes. Drive to downtown Los Angeles."

Alexandra Daddario nodded slightly.

"In terms of rent..." Matthew said casually, not knowing the changes in the real estate market in the past two years, "Just follow the market price."

"I'm poor," Alexandra Daddario whispered.

Matthew thought for a while, and then said, "I'll ask Bella to show you there tomorrow. If you like it, you can live there temporarily. The rent...you can give it to me when you get the full salary."

Free people live, it is easy to cause misunderstandings.

Alexandra Daddario didn't think about living for free, but she really didn't have the money. "Then I'll call Bella tomorrow."

Matthew speeded up the car and said at the same time, "I will tell her in advance when I send you over."

The house has been vacant since he moved. Bella Anderson originally wanted to rent it, but it was a bit far from Beverly Hills. Later, for the convenience of work, he rented a house outside Beverly Hills.

Beverly City can also be regarded as a satellite city of Los Angeles. In addition to Beverly Hills, where the rich gather, there are many ordinary communities.

Of course, compared to downtown Los Angeles, the entire city of Beverly is more than one grade higher in terms of overall environment and residents' income levels.

When Alexandra Daddario was delivered to the destination, Amanda happened to be at home, so Matthew simply invited the two to have dinner together, and Alexandra Daddario followed the next day. Bella Anderson went to the northern suburbs of Burbank and rented the house.

After settling down, you can also devote yourself to the shooting of "I Am Legend".
