"I auditioned for 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Soulcatcher', and the crew originally decided that I would play the witch Tia Maddow. Just when I was about to sign with the crew, the actor Matthew Horner appeared."

The person speaking in the video is a black woman, and Matthew is standing in front of the computer screen, feeling vaguely familiar.

Helen Herman and David Ellison stood next to him, both of them said nothing and continued to watch the video.

The black woman said in the video, "Matthew Horner let the crew kick me out, and then replaced the white actor Eva Green, the final result everyone saw, I, the black actor, lost the role of the witch, Eva - Green became the actor who played the witch..."

The video is not long, only a few minutes, and it ends quickly.

"You know her?" David Ellison asked Matthew.

After this time, Matthew gradually remembered and said, "Should know."

Helen Herman said, "She's called Naomie Harris. Someone recommended her to the crew of Pirates of the Caribbean, and the crew did intend to cast her as Tia Maddow, but I asked Matthew to help. Recommend Eva Green."

Matthew nodded, "Yes, then I and Keira Knightley recommended Eva Green to the crew, and the crew gave us two faces, so they replaced Naomie Harris with Eva Green."

David Ellison wondered, "What she said was the truth?"

Matthew shrugged. "Eighty percent is the truth."

"There should be someone behind this woman." Helen Herman said with a frown at this time, "None of what she said was a direct accusation of racism, but the first thing you think of after reading it is that Matthew is suspected of racism. "

David Ellison took a step back and forth and asked, "Will such an accusation appear at this time, will it be related to Spike Lee."

Matthew was very calm, "It's hard not to connect people."

"Eighty percent." Just as Helen Herman finished speaking, Matthew received a text message from Bella Anderson.

The content of the text message was still related to the video. Matthew opened the video on the computer and played it. The person in the video was Paula Patton.

This is also a video directed at Matthew. Paula Patton vividly describes how Matthew intervened in the casting of "I Am Legend", causing her to lose the upcoming supporting actress.

"I don't know why it's like this, and why Matthew Horner helped Alexandra Daddario take away my supporting actress, is it just because I'm black, ya Alexandra Daddario is a white man?"

The two men's accusations, combined with Spike Lee's remarks, caused an uproar on the Internet, and despite all the work Matthew and Helen Hellman had done that night, the wave appeared in the newspapers the next day. and TV stations and many other traditional media, and the scope of influence is not small.

Later, someone else came forward and broke the news. Several people familiar with the so-called "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew and "I Am Legend" crew broke the news that Matthew does not like black actors, which is a well-known thing in these two crews , Said that Matthew not only let the crew dismiss the two black actresses, but also excluded other black staff in the crew...

Although Warner Bros. and Disney Pictures, as well as the crew of "Three Hundred Spartans", "I Am Legend" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" have successively opened up rumors, saying that the choice of actors is the decision of the crew and has little to do with Matthew , the so-called skin color determines that the actors are nothing, and even the black staff of the crew stood up for an interview, indicating that they were not excluded by Matthew at all, but the storm not only did not dissipate, but intensified.

Francis Lawrence followed up with a reporter interview, accusing Matthew of excluding him from the cast of "I Am Legend" because of his insistence on using black actors.

An unknown black actor jumped out and shouted. When filming "The Scorpion King", he was abused by Matthew on the set...

A black screenwriter told the media that Matthew forced to revise the script, asking to reduce the role of black characters and increase the role of white characters...

In just over a day, just looking at the accusations and the news in the media, Matthew could have been thrown into jail by a California court for "racial discrimination".

Of course, Matthew will not sit back and watch in this regard. Helen Herman also acted as a spokesperson and publicly issued a statement to refute rumors, but the effect was not very good.

In the past few years, his career has been smooth sailing. When he was on a smooth road, the media seemed to be singing praises. Matthew's current reputation and status have something to do with most of the media's intentional or unintentional star-making.

Star-making is undoubtedly one of the things that entertainment media are most willing to do, because it can attract readers and gain attention, and destroying stars after star-making is also one of the things they are most willing to do.

When a star is promoted to a certain height, and then he is destroyed by a large amount of negative news, the news value that can be generated can be imagined.

The most typical is Tom Cruise.

When Matthew, who had a smooth journey, saw that he had encountered a huge headwind and seemed to be about to become a stagnant dog, many media did not mind changing their positions and joined the headwind camp, running over and stepping on them hard.

The opponents were obviously well prepared, so they were somewhat caught off guard.

"Mr. Horner, is it true that you are being accused of racism against black actors and staff by so many people in the Hollywood industry?"

At the entrance of the Angel Agency, Matthew was surrounded by dozens of reporters as soon as he got out of the car.

He and Helen Herman were well prepared. Not only did they increase the number of bodyguards around them, but the Angel Agency also had guards who were specially prepared to deal with reporter paparazzi.

More than a dozen bodyguards and guards formed a circle, firmly protecting Matthew.

The reporter paparazzi can't get close to Matthew, but they don't prevent them from asking questions.

"Matthew, what do you think of the recent media reports about your alleged racism?"

"As a public figure, Matthew Horner, don't you feel ashamed to discriminate against black people?"

From the cluttered voices, hearing this sentence, Matthew turned his head and glanced at it, it was a black reporter.

"Are you going to quit Hollywood?"

"Matthew Horner, the reports are true..."

All kinds of questions have been thrown from the mouths of the reporter paparazzi, and some of them are even very ugly. Even if the whole incident is still in the stage of suspicion, the so-called discrimination is only from the mouths of some people, but there is no evidence, these guys Can't wait to nail Matthew to the pillar of shame.

Matthew did not answer any questions, and there is no need to answer them now. He had previously asked Helen Herman to issue a public statement refuting the remarks that attacked him, but it was better than nothing.

In fact, he can see the mentality of the media practitioners, and he has always kept in touch with Irina Boyar. In this case, he is not a racist, and is of little value to the entertainment media. If he really Racial discrimination will become a hot news in the United States.

It is conceivable which side most entertainment media will choose.

Those who hide behind the scenes are probably well aware of this mentality of the media.

Under the **** of bodyguards, Matthew entered the Angel Agency. In just two days, it was normal for him to be besieged by reporters like this.

"It should be Spike Lee behind this."

In Helen Herman's office, the characters on Matthew's team are basically expired, Helen Herman said, "It should have been organized by him and then initiated. Similar incidents have been done by Spike Lee before. But this time it's the biggest."

Matthew nodded and said, "I underestimated Spike Lee."

Irina Boyar said at this time, "According to my understanding, the situation in the media is not very optimistic. Many entertainment media are preparing to treat you as the second Tom Cruise, and the issue of race is far more important than Tom Cruise. - Cruise's beliefs are much more problematic."

"But Matthew is not involved in racism." Amanda answered.

Helen Herman glanced at Matthew, and she was the only one who could vaguely guess some of Matthew's thoughts, but she also knew that Matthew never showed them, and those thoughts were just thoughts. on the level.

"I have never discriminated against anyone at any time and on any occasion..." Matthew is very confident about this.

He always knew the priorities, and he never talked or acted indiscriminately.

If you have to say or act discriminate against anyone, it's only Keira Knightley's breasts.

Helen Herman asked Wilson attorney, "What about the legal side?"

Attorney Wilson replied, "I will send them a lawyer's letter, but you know the effect..."

Bella Anderson chimed in, "Are we not going to do anything more than that statement?"

"Do, of course," Amanda said suddenly. "We..."

Then, she noticed Helen Herman's eyes and closed her mouth. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Helen Herman said, "We have an appointment with Oprah, and we were going to be on her talk show. I just contacted her this morning, Matthew, you have to be prepared to be difficult."

She saw Matthew nod and said, "I will continue to communicate with her and settle the contract situation as soon as possible.

At the same time, there are still people who want to join in the fight against the underdogs.

"Will, this is indeed an opportunity."

Inside a mansion in Santa Monica, CAA's big-name agent Kevin Howian persuaded his number one client Will Smith, "But as far as I know, Matthew Horner and Helen Herman are not simple characters. , has done nothing but a public statement so far, which is a bit abnormal."

He said solemnly, "We have to be cautious."

Will Smith nodded lightly, "I know. So I'm going to let Jada come forward, so that I can take the opportunity to step on Matthew Horner hard and leave enough room for retreat. And, awards season is coming, One of my goals for this year's "Knock on Happiness" is the Oscars."
