Best Movie Star

Chapter 92: Brotherhood is above everything

(Ask for a recommendation ticket! Ask for a recommendation ticket!)

The filming of the crew is still going on, but after Matthew has completed the battlefield scene, he does not need to play the temporary role of the background color for the time being. According to the notice of the crew, he came to the press room closest to the main entrance of Hatfield Airport and prepared to meet the other three. The actors were interviewed by media reporters together.

The night before, the press officer of the crew had communicated enough with them, focusing on what should not be said.

At this point, Matthew will not mess around, and will definitely act according to the requirements of the crew.

Matthew was not familiar with the three actors who were interviewed with him, but only knew each other. They were all the main actors who trained with Damian Lewis.

Among the character actors, only Matthew came.

Led by the press officer of the crew, the four people entered the press room, and a warm atmosphere rushed over them. Countless flashing lights came on, and at the same time, there was a messy sound of pressing the shutter.

Although heavyweights like Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg did not attend this press conference, the appearance of four people, Damian Lewis and Matthew, still attracted the attention of media reporters .

In particular, they were all wearing paratrooper uniforms from the 101st Airborne Division during World War II.

This is also an important activity in the pre-promotion of the crew.

After the four actors, including Matthew, stood together for a group photo, they were assigned by the press officer to four different areas of the press room to interact directly with the media reporters.

Compared with other people, Damian Lewis is the most famous actor, and he also plays the legendary soldier Captain Richard Winster, who gathers the most media reporters there.

The other two main actors are well-known in the industry, but they are also unfamiliar faces to media reporters. They are not even familiar with Matthew. Most of the people present are entertainment reporters. Some people recognized Matthew immediately after seeing him. It is the MV actor who once had an affair with Britney Spears.

So, aside from Damian Lewis, Matthew has the second most reporters around.

This situation was completely unexpected by the press officer. Before the media reporter asked any questions, he quickly dispatched one of the most experienced assistants to Matthew's side, in case he was attacked by the media reporters, the young actor said. Say something that shouldn't be said.

"Don't talk nonsense." The middle-aged assistant stood behind Matthew and reminded in a low voice, "If you have any difficult questions, wait until I prompt you to answer them."

Matthew didn't speak, but nodded cautiously.

Then, a large number of reporters rushed over. Fortunately, there were staff to maintain order, and the scene was not too chaotic.

"Limit one question per person!" the staff member said loudly, "think about the question and ask Mr. Matthew Horner!"

The first questions were from the cooperative media of the crew, and the two sides had communicated with each other before.

"Mr. Horner!" asked a reporter with a Warner TV tag on his chest. "It is said that you have undergone rigorous training before shooting?"

"Yes!" Matthew looked stern, just like playing Ronald Spears in the filming, like a real soldier, "We have to know the combat skills well, and we have to learn to use weapons. 40 lbs of gear to practice five mile rush marches…”

These are carefully prepared remarks after Matthew communicated with the crew. Although they were all fake, they spoke very smoothly, "In a certain stage of training, you can only sleep for 3 hours a day, and you can't sleep at all, because in the tent you I'll be shivering with cold. But after going through this, I have a strong sense of accomplishment."

What the media reporters and audience want to see, what the crew will prepare when promoting, not what the facts are, what the crew will promote.

Matthew has gone through several production crews, and he vaguely understands this, and is not against telling lies. This is the job of an actor.

"Training brings the actors closer to each other!" He continued to babble according to the crew's requirements, "so when we actually started filming, the feelings between each other held us together as a whole, just like a real brotherhood!"

Behind him, the middle-aged assistant couldn't help nodding slightly. The crew would only communicate with the actors their specific intentions, and would not fully formulate the lines and answers to the questions, otherwise it would be too fake, and in many cases, the actors would need to play on the spot.

This little actor named Matthew Horner did quite well, much better than he expected.

In fact, after attending the press officer's communication meeting last night, Matthew went back and did a lot of work, so it can be said that he came prepared.

Although he still lacks experience in dealing with the media, he has the backing of the crew, so he will not be nervous.

Another reporter from Warner's "Empire" magazine asked, "May I ask, which character are you playing?"

Matthew is still a soldier, "Ronald Spears, the fourth company commander of E Company."

The reporter from "Entertainment Weekly" then asked, "Did you have any special feelings or experiences during the filming? If so, can you share it?"

These three reporters are all from the media that belongs to the same group company as HBO. The questions they ask are not only polite, but also very much in line with the propaganda needs of the crew.

Matthew thought for a while and said solemnly, "Before, I had never experienced the sudden release of adrenaline, but now I do. Because when the shooting started, the whole shooting location was in chaos, people kept falling down, and the bomb was near you. One after another explosion, I can imagine the scene of soldiers falling in batches in the hail of bullets, our eyes are full of fear, we know this is not true, but it is because of this that we are truly afraid, how the soldiers were in those days survived?"

"Also!" He said again, "The friendship of comrades-in-arms in war will inevitably condense into a force that overcomes the enemy and wins, and brotherhood is above everything else."

After speaking, he looked back subconsciously, and found that the middle-aged news assistant gave him a thumbs up in a covert way; he immediately calmed down.

The middle-aged news assistant put his thumb away, watching Matthew continue to deal with reporters, nodding constantly. When he saw this young actor just last night, he still wondered why the production team chose such a non-main actor to participate in the press conference. Now It seems that the production team is well prepared. This actor named Matthew Horner is no worse than their professional journalists and PR when they talk nonsense.

This is a talent! He suddenly had an idea, if this actor can't walk the path of being an actor, he can actually become a press officer or professional media public relations, and he is completely competent.

Matthew understands the value of opportunities. For a character actor of his level, news of facing many media like this can be met but not sought after. Now that there is an opportunity, of course, he has to do everything he can, whether it is this stern military outfit. , or the answer to each question, he had a certain amount of preparation before.

In the words of Helen Herman, every appearance in the media represents a seniority that is likely to play a role in the next role competition.

The interview is still going on, but the problem is gradually deviating from the series and the characters. After all, many reporters came here because they recognized Matthew as Britney's former rumored boyfriend.

Therefore, questions inevitably turn to gossip.

"Mr. Matthew Horner!"

A reporter from a famous tabloid asked loudly, "Do you know Britney Spears? The relationship is not easy?"

Matthew turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged news assistant. The middle-aged news assistant shook his head slightly. He immediately said, "Sorry, I won't answer questions that have nothing to do with this drama."

The crew immediately ordered another reporter, who was the one the crew had communicated with, and asked questions related to "Band of Brothers".

The interview lasted for more than half an hour. At the end of the interview, at the request of the reporter, Matthew put on a few cold military Poss and let the reporter take pictures.

He has tough facial lines, three-dimensional facial features, tall stature, calm aura, and deep affection and coldness. No matter what aspect he takes, he looks like a strong soldier!

"The crew really knows how to choose actors..." There were also reporters' comments, "Such actors are born soldiers."

Another person echoed, "That's right, it's a pity that he didn't join the army."

Matthew's expression remained unchanged, but he complained to the reporter a hundred times in his heart: Join the army? To be cannon fodder for Lao Mei? He doesn't do it!

The interview ended successfully, the reporters from UU Reading www.uukanshu.com gradually dispersed, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief, and the middle-aged assistant stepped forward and whispered, "Good job!"

Matthew smiled at him. Only he knew how hard it was to deal with these reporters.

The middle-aged assistant greeted, "Let's go."

He knew he didn't play any role at all, and the actor, Matthew Horner, handled it very well.

The four actors gathered and asked the reporter to take a photo of the meeting, and the news media meeting ended there.

Later, Matthew continued to devote himself to the filming. Ronald Spears had a limited role. In most of the filming, he acted as an extra, but he did not relax in the slightest. For a person who has just entered the industry for a year, any appearance In the lens, it is an extremely rare experience.

During the filming of "Band of Brothers", Matthew spent the first anniversary of his arrival here. In one year, he changed from a person who had almost nothing, even lodging and meals, to a successful person. A character actor who has reached Hollywood, and also solves basic life problems.

He concluded that he was relatively successful, at least the current road is going up, not down.

Of course, this is still a long way from the goal of Hollywood stars.

Matthew's filming at Hatfield Airport continued until April, when all Ronald Spears scenes ended in late April and he was ready to return to North America.

Leaving the crew this time, if there is no major accident, he will not come back again, and when he returns, he will also prepare for the red carpet for the premiere of "Gladiator"!

Helen Herman won this opportunity, and Matthew will definitely not waste it. He is very much looking forward to walking this red carpet for the first time.
