Best Movie Star

Chapter 651: The prodigal son returns for gold

(Happy New Year! Happy New Year! Happy New Year!)

Back in Los Angeles, Matthew signed a new endorsement agreement with Rolex, becoming Rolex's full media spokesperson, and took two days to shoot a new Rolex advertisement. According to the content of the agreement, he became Rolex after Roger. - Federer's spokesperson and Rolex's first spokesperson in North America.

He then met with Christopher Nolan at the Warner Building, and unlike the last time, Christopher Nolan provided him with the newly completed script.

After reading the script, Matthew was completely sure that this was the "Inception" starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Mann formally negotiated with Warner Bros. to finalize the actor contract.

Warner Bros. had no doubts about his $20 million salary, and agreed to a certain amount of later box office share, but the specific ratio will be negotiated slowly in the negotiation.

There is no rush in this regard. Christopher Nolan has to make some minor tinkering for "The Dark Knight". After the film is released in July, preparations will begin, and the filming will not start until next year.

There is ample time for negotiation between the two sides.

Compared with the efficiency of Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros., there has been no latest news from Stephen Sophis and Paramount Pictures, and Matthew no longer has much hope for them. It is estimated that it is due to Hasbro. The relationship over there, it may be difficult to completely overturn the script and start over.

In this project, Hasbro will participate in the actual investment, and they will definitely consider selling dolls. As he proposed, the method of completely focusing on one character, and other supporting characters mainly play soy sauce, is very beneficial to the absolute protagonist, but it is not conducive to peripheral sales.

But Matthew couldn't sacrifice his own interests to help others.

If Duke can't be the absolute protagonist, there is no need for the two sides to talk anymore.

He put this aside for the time being, Stephen Sommers didn't take the initiative to contact him, and he wouldn't take the initiative to contact Stephen Sommers and Paramount Pictures.

Anyway, there is no shortage of film appointments now.

And there is no time and energy to focus on this toy series for the time being. "Twilight" has been transferred to post-production. Although there are producers Sean Daniel and Sofia Coppola, he also has to pay attention to the post-production from time to time. production progress.

Also, "Iron Man" will be released in just over half a month.

This film has his $40 million investment in it, and it must be shouted hard.

In the following period of time, Matthew began to run for "Iron Man" and followed the crew to attend various media announcements and promotion meetings.

"This film, the most important thing is to tell people that Robert Downey Jr. is back!"

At the publicity meeting, Matthew was interviewed by reporters and praised Robert Downey Jr. beside him, "In this era without heroes, there has always been no shortage of fictional images that make people admire. Hollywood comic heroes After stepping out of comic books to the big screen one after another, now, Iron Man, the most popular comic hero for women, finally couldn’t hold back and flew to the big screen.”

He was full of praise, "Robert Downey Jr. gave us a lot of qualities in the Iron Man we will see, very violent, very ambitious, and of course very feminine."

There was applause at the announcement, and Matthew and Robert Downey Jr. sat together, looking like a long-lasting friendship.

A reporter asked, "You supposedly recommended Robert Downey Jr. to the crew? Is that so, Matthew?"

This question was asked of Matthew, but Robert Downey Jr. was the first to answer, "Yes, Matthew recommended me to the crew, and I'm always grateful for that."

But Matthew smiled and said, "Danny is too polite." He paused for a moment, and then said, "Actually, we all know that Downey will definitely come back, and I can now responsibly tell everyone that the actor who can act Downey is really back! He's still so disliked by the rules, and still so chatty."

Having said this, Matthew and Robert Downey Jr both laughed.

In the face of media reporters, Robert Downey Jr.'s disgraceful past will always be mentioned. Robert Downey Jr. is also mature and does not shy away from mentioning those **** back then.

When a reporter asked about drug use, he said, "In 2003, my career hit rock bottom because of drugs, and one day I had an experience that made me decide to stay away from drugs altogether."

Hearing this, Matthew couldn't help looking at Robert Downey Jr. curiously, because as far as he knew, detoxification was really, really difficult. Robert Downey Jr. had several times of detoxification before 2003, but all of them fell short in the end.

Moreover, Robert Downey Jr. not only has to say an answer, but also interprets this answer with enough twists and turns and attractive enough to achieve the effect of promoting "Iron Man".

"I was driving out with a load of drugs in 2003, and when I was hungry, I went to Burger King."

Robert Downey Jr. said it very calmly, as if he had been given a new life, "I have to thank Burger King, I bought a very disgusting burger, and a big drink, and I had an ominous feeling in my heart. After I ate that burger, I felt so bad, I felt like I was overdose, so I threw all the drugs into the sea and decided to get rid of my addiction seriously."

Matthew nodded slightly, and it is estimated that this will become a joke that people will inevitably mention when talking about Robert Downey Jr.

However, Burger King is one of the sponsors of "Iron Man". Is it really good for Robert Downey Jr. to say Burger King?

With Matthew's intentional resignation, the reporters' subsequent questions were directed at Robert Downey Jr.

"What made you choose this role?" a reporter from "Entertainment Weekly" asked. "It seems that this role is very different from your previous screen image."

Robert Downey Jr. is also an old man in Hollywood, and it's easy to deal with it. "Many of my friends were involved in the production of this movie. Now it's not a deviant thing to shoot a sci-fi movie or a movie adapted from a comic book. , didn't Marlon Brando also make a cameo role in "Superman"? My previous sneering attitude towards comics movies was obviously too arbitrary. Of course, my choice this time is shocking enough."

His mentality is very good, "My friends will ask me when they see me: Dude, what's wrong with you? Did you go to collect drug money again?"

This remark provoked another round of laughter at the announcement site.

Matthew is also laughing. Maybe others may not be successful in playing Iron Man, but Robert Downey Jr. is naturally funny, and it is undoubtedly more in line with Tony Stark's character.

A reporter from the New York Post asked a rather unreliable question, "If you ran into Tony Stark on a street corner, what would you say to him?"

Robert Downey Jr.'s answer was also unexpected, "I'll tell him, you must be an impostor."

He thought for a while, and then said, "I don't necessarily imagine the scene where I meet the protagonist in the movie, I'm past the age of imagining this kind of thing, and I've been able to pull the aesthetic distance between me and the character. Open. When I was shooting "Subzero Passion" and "Chaplin and His Lover", I couldn't be so open-minded. In "Subzero Passion", when the makeup artist appeared unexpectedly, I was so nervous that I almost fainted, or acting for me at that time was more than just 16 hours of face-up dancing with characters every day, I couldn’t be so free and easy.”

A reporter from TMZ asked a very TMZ question at this time, "In order to play Tony Stark well, have you met some playboys and found Tony Stark's shadow from them?"

"There's no need to find someone to ask for advice, because I have experts in this area around me." Robert Downey Jr. turned to Matthew as agreed in advance, and said with a smile, "Matthew is better than Tony Stark. Gram is more popular with women, and having a mass lover like him imparting experience~www.readwn.com~ I can deal with this easily."

Matthew took over the topic in a timely manner, "I told Downey, the most important thing is humor!"

This is the same as what he said in previous interviews.

Of course, everyone knows why Iron Man is popular with women, which can be described in one sentence.

For example, if someone asks him what Iron Man's special ability is, he will not answer that it is a steel suit, but - rich!

The interview ended with laughter and laughter. After being published by the media, the effect was particularly good. News like "Professor Matthew Horner's Iron Man Picking Up Girls" was also very attractive.

Looking around the world, in fact, people are buying the set of "The Prodigal Son Returns for Money", and the crew developed a similar strategy for Robert Downey Jr.'s characteristics.

Paramount Pictures' promotion of "Iron Man" is also in full swing, "Iron Man Air Combat F-22 Raptor", "The final trailer of "Iron Man" leaked, shocking special effects leaked", "Iron Man" "New stills were revealed, with beauties crowding Robert Downey Jr.", "Tony Stark playing cool and bombing tanks" and so on, and similar soft promotions and hard promotions emerged one after another.

Even the heroine Gwyneth Paltrow's illness was hyped by the crew, saying that she was overworked while filming "Iron Man" and had health problems.

"Overworked work has caused Gwyneth Paltrow to lose weight and severely exhausted."

As long as it doesn't cross the legal boundaries, the promotion methods of Hollywood movies are dazzling enough.

Finally, the North American summer season in May kicked off. "Iron Man" held a grand premiere at the Chief Stone Theater. Tony Stark is about to be tested by fans around the world.
