Best Movie Star

Tall trees are planted on both sides of the quiet road, and the detached houses are hidden in the night. In the bright moonlight, the black Mercedes-Benz sedan moves from far to near. The sound of the engine broke the silence and scared people. Several unnamed birds flew from the trees and rushed into the night sky.

With the barely audible braking sound, the Mercedes-Benz stopped on the side of the road, not far from the tall wall covered with ivy, telling the people in the car that the destination had arrived.

"I'm here." Alexandra Daddario didn't wait for Matthew to get out of the car, then pushed open the car door and walked out. A gust of night wind blew, and she tightened the men's jacket over her shoulders and muttered. , "It's already early morning."

Matthew got out of the car at this time and came over. He heard something she said, but he couldn't hear it clearly, and asked, "What's the matter, Anna?"

Alexandra Daddario smiled and shook her head, "It's okay."

"Your handbag." Matthew handed the bag over.

Alexandra Daddario took it and took out the house keys. The car lights turned on in the direction from which he came. He glanced over there. Several cars were parked not far away, and someone was walking from the front. Get out of the car and take a photo with the camera.

"There are paparazzi," she reminded Matthew.

Looking back, Matthew didn't care at all, and said casually, "I follow the tail all the year round." He pointed to the gate surrounded by ivy, "Anna, I'll take you in."

"No need." Alexandra Daddario declined politely, "It's getting late, I'll rest when I go back."

Matthew didn't force himself, nodded and said, "Okay, you rest early."

Alexandra Daddario smiled. "Thank you, Matthew. It was a wonderful night." She walked towards the door and opened the wrought-iron door, then turned back and looked at her Her Matthew, "It's too late today, I'll invite you over to be a guest another day."

"Well." Matthew waved at her, "Good night, Anna."

Alexandra Daddario also gently waved at him, "Good night, Matthew."

She opened the wrought iron door and walked in. Matthew didn't stop here any longer. He got back into the car and told the driver, "Go back to Beverly Hills."

Sitting in the car and looking back at the ivy-covered house he rented to Alexandra Daddario, Matthew could clearly see that Alexandra Daddario was no longer there. She was a relatively innocent girl when she filmed "Dawn of the Living Dead" with him. She has become more mature in recent years, especially just now, she politely refused and gave people hope...

Matthew is not in a hurry, and his feelings for Alexandra Daddario, although far less than Charlize Theron, are better than those of other actresses and models.

When he got home, he suddenly felt that he was no different from most normal men, and that what he couldn't get was the best.

After the Oscars, Hollywood was in uproar again, and there was a lot of gossip about Matthew and Alexandra Daddario dating, but Matthew didn't date Alexandra as vividly as the tabloids described. Daddario spent the night together, and later he continued to date with Alexandra Daddario, but Alexandra Daddario always kept closer than friends, but did not give the opportunity for real contact.

Matthew quickly understood what Alexandra Daddario meant, and she was willing to accept his pursuit, but not in a one-night stand.

Except for Britney, Matthew has never been in a formal relationship with anyone else so far. Although he has a good impression of Charlize Theron, the engagement at the beginning was completely a show. Charlize Theron was very worried about him, and the two Never been a real boyfriend and girlfriend.

He is very apprehensive about pursuing a new girlfriend.

With Matthew's appearance at the Oscars, Warner Bros. also officially started the promotion of "I Am Legend". The promotion of this film has also shifted from the pre-publication to the pre-screening promotion stage, although it is still before the North American release in December. It's been a long time, but there is a way of propaganda that just needs time to ferment.

Warner Bros. specially set up a website for the viral marketing of "I Am Legend". At the beginning of the website's establishment, a sensational news broke out, which instantly attracted the attention of many people.

This website claims that there is a laboratory in New York that has found a way to conquer cancer. A certain virus can effectively kill tumor cells, but it will not have negative effects on normal tissues. At present, this therapy is preparing to enter the clinical trial stage. Everything If it goes well, it will be promoted soon.

Similar news has also appeared in many media and magazines, but if you pay attention, it is not difficult to find that media such as major newspapers have not reported similar news.

Even so, after a period of fermentation, many people have noticed this website.

This also achieves the initial purpose. Viral marketing is often a long process and takes time to ferment.

Of course, hyping news like this is irresponsible and unethical, but it's never been a problem for Hollywood.

The viral marketing strategy developed by Warner Bros. is much more conscientious than a certain movie that Matthew once saw on the other side of the Pacific blatantly preached the end of the world and caused a certain social panic.

Today, the social situation is changing rapidly. As a gathering place for liberals, Hollywood can be regarded as the vanguard of some changes. As an individual existing in the whole society, a person must adapt to the changes in the social environment.

While focusing on his own development, Matthew also always pays attention to the situation in Hollywood.

After the 79th Academy Awards, the most interesting thing is that Walt Disney has completed its acquisition of Pixar Studios.

The acquisition agreement between Disney and Pixar Studios was officially signed last year, and after many busy months, Pixar Studios has truly become part of Walt Disney.

Steve Jobs, the original owner of Pixar Studios, also became Disney's largest shareholder through a stock exchange.

In addition, many former Pixar studio executives, such as John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton, have entered Walt Disney's important divisions as leaders, responsible for Disney's declining content production.

"Disney will have a celebratory reception at the end of March."

Walking with Matthew in the garden of Horner Manor, Helen Herman said as he walked, "They have sent the invitation letter to me."

She turned her head and looked at the hydrangea next to her, "Although we have no new cooperation with Disney after the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, I suggest you participate."

Matthew turned into the stone road next to him, sat on the rattan chair next to the stone table, pointed to the other rattan chair opposite, and said, "Sit whatever you want, Helen."

The servants have already put tea here.

Helen Herman sat opposite Matthew, took a casual sip from the teacup, and continued the topic just now, "Steve Jobs will also be at this reception."

"I want to see the schedule." Matthew thought for a while and said, "If the schedule is right, I will definitely attend."

Helen Herman nodded lightly and added, "You will pay attention to Andrew Stanton when you get there."

"The director of Finding Nemo?" Matthew asked curiously.

"It's him." Helen Herman explained briefly, "I met him some time ago. He asked about your schedule, and he seemed to want to invite you to be the male lead in his new film."

Matthew frowned slightly, "Let me dub his cartoon?"

Helen Herman shook his head, "No. Andrew Stanton is currently working on a cartoon about Earth and robots, and after this cartoon, he's about to get into live-action filmmaking, and he wants to take over Edgar Rice- A film adaptation of Burroughs' "Princess of Mars."

She simply put down the teacup and said to Matthew intently, "The project "Mars Princess" has died several times due to accidents from the end of the 1970s to the present. Andrew Stanton found it in Disney's copyright library. This project is working with others to rewrite the script and prepare to restart the project."

Matthew thought for a while, then asked, "Edgar Rice Burroughs?" Not the original author of "Tarzan of the Apes"?"

"That's right, it's him," Helen Herman added. "George Lucas's Star Wars series borrowed some of the settings from The Princess of Mars."

Hearing her say this, Matthew suddenly remembered, "When I was filming "Pirates of the Caribbean," I heard people from Disney talk about this project."

At that time, he also sighed that the scripts of many Hollywood movies have been in the script library of various studios for many years.

Helen Herman further said, "From what I know, Disney Studios has a lot of skepticism about Andrew Stanton, who has a great reputation for animation, but has never He has been involved in live-action movies, and he wants to contact you, I am afraid he wants to create a situation where you can play the male lead, so as to increase the possibility of attracting investment."

She thought for a while, then said, "If Andrew Stanton's animated robot movie is a big success, it is estimated that Disney's release may increase."

Matthew scratched the stubble on his chin, "I've seen 'Tarzan', but 'Princess of Mars' is very unfamiliar."

"This is a classic science fiction work." Helen Herman briefly introduced, "Published in 1912, there are 11 original novels in total. According to Andrew Stanton, his adaptation is mainly based on the first novel. ."

"Action type?" Matthew asked.

Helen Herman nodded slightly, "Action sci-fi type."

The people at Pixar are very capable, as everyone knows by now, and Matthew thought about it for a moment, and said, "Well, Helen. You keep in touch with Andrew Stanton, and when he's finished the script, I'll read the script and talk about it."
