An old truck got off the highway and slowly entered the path leading to the barbecue shop. After a bumpy ride, it stopped in front of the prop tap in front of the barbecue shop. The door was pushed open from the inside. Robert Downey Jr. took the lead from driving. Jumped up a bit.

Murphy switched the lens and gave Robert Downey Jr. a close-up.

There are scars on his face, and several tattoos are faintly visible on his bare arms. The whole person exudes a strong temperament.

The passenger door on the other side was also pushed open. Philip Raschel also switched to a close-up shot. Carey Mulligan wore a similar outfit to Robert Downey Jr., short hair tied with a tie, and gloomy doll. Murderous on his face.

This is the performance or the actual emotions brought to the work, except for her, no one knows, but it just caters to the role requirements.

She is not the innocent and cute Little Red Riding Hood, nor is she a drug addict who accepts a cruel test, but a powerful and powerful female killer.

This role is the younger sister of the actor played by Robert Downey Jr. It does not exist in the original version, but Murphy himself added it.

Due to the scale of investment and the length of the film, Murphy does not intend to have too many leading roles in the film. The plot will revolve around Jessica Chastain, Robert Downey Jr. and Carey Mulligan. The other main roles will also be drawn by these three people.

For example, the roles of rotisserie owner and sheriff played by Seth Logan and Jonah Hill, as well as the doctors played by James Franco, have all changed to a certain extent, especially the doctors of James Franco. The scene will be aggravated a lot, and there will be an entanglement with Brother Lei.

As for the other people who joined the ranks of fighting zombies, they basically belonged to the named soy sauce crowd.

The reduction of roles can not only focus on the main characters, highlighting the main actors who are closely related to Murphy, but also reduce the scene conversion during shooting, which can save a lot of money.

From the very beginning when planning, Murphy considered this aspect. For a film like this, it is necessary to reduce expenses.

In particular, you can’t invite big-name stars, otherwise the cost will definitely pile up on an unusually terrifying number like the previous movie.

Among the cast and crew of the entire crew, Murphy’s pay was the highest, followed by Robert Downey Jr. and James Franco. Now Robert Downey Jr. used to describe him as a compliment. He and James Franco’s pay was almost the same, all of which were compressed by Miramax to less than half a million U.S. dollars.

This is also a true reflection of their market value.

Murphy made major changes to the entire film, also from the perspective of theater market screenings.

As for the actual effect, it depends on the announcement.

This shot was completed smoothly. As the scene in the barbecue restaurant had to be filmed in a warehouse outside Venice, Jessica Chastain, who had not removed her makeup, joined the filming again.

Standing on the set, Murphy deliberately instructed the three actors to move, and said, "Donnie, Jesse, you have to feel like you are calling, don't be as dry as during rehearsal."

Jessica Chastain and Robert Downey Jr. both nodded.

Murphy turned his head and looked next to Robert Downey Jr. Kerry Mulligan was no longer active and rarely spoke on the set.

"Kerry," he said, "you and Jesse's characters will eventually break into conflict. Pay attention to the timing of the conflict, before getting in the car."

Hearing these words, Kerry Mulligan just glanced at Murphy without any indication.

Frowning, Murphy didn't say much, turned and left, walked behind the camera set up on the track, and waited for the crew to complete the final preparations.

"She still won't talk to you?" Seth Logan, who has no role for the time being, came to Murphy's side. "What the **** is going on with you?"

Murphy shook his head and said nothing.

"She's too headstrong?" Seth Rogen looked at Carrie Mulligan over there, "Will it affect work?"

In fact, he, Jonah Hill and James Franco don’t like this British girl who is innocent and cute on the surface, but rebellious and self-willed at heart, but for the sake of friendship with Murphy, they have always Did not show up.

"Probably not." Murphy patted Seth Rogen on the shoulder. "Go and work for you."

He could tell whether others were bad-hearted or kind-hearted, and he could also see that Seth Rogen was making grievances for himself.

However, Murphy is not worried. Since Kerry Mulligan has chosen the path of an actor, he must know when to do something, and he should also have the most basic qualities of an actor.

When the preparations were completed, Murphy called to start, and Robert Downey Jr., Jessica Chastain, and Carey Mulligan in the venue walked towards the truck one after another.

In places where the camera could not shoot, an experienced recording assistant hung the recording microphone on top of the three of them with a pick rod, and followed.

"Do you want to leave without saying goodbye?" Jessica Chastain grabbed Robert Downey Jr.'s arm with one hand. "Where are you going?"

Robert Downey Jr. turned around and looked at Jessica Chastain affectionately, "You know what I do, I won't stay in one place for too long! It's useless for you to follow..."

"I came here to tell you!" Jessica Chastain's lips curled up, "I took the initiative to leave last time. I dumped you!"

Robert Downey Jr. was taken aback for a while.

Jessica Chastain walked to the truck and turned back, "Now, I want you to take me for a ride!"

"You dream!" a slightly gloomy voice sounded, "I won't let you, an annoying woman, get in the car!"

Kerry Mulligan walked over quickly and reached out and pushed Jessica Chastain hard.

According to the set position, Jessica Chastain will fall on the grass beside the car. Although the grass is not thick, it can also avoid injuries.

But the development of the matter did not follow the setting at all. Kerry Mulligan came to push her angle, not to the grass, but to the truck.

She used a lot of strength.

Jessica Chastain was unprepared. She was pushed hard by those white hands, and unconsciously stepped backwards two steps in a row. One side of her body directly hit the door handle, and the protruding old-fashioned truck handle directly There was an intimate contact with the white shoulders.

"what……"

Severe pain came from the shoulder, and Jessica Chastain couldn't help but screamed, and squatted down with her other hand covering her shoulder.

Looking at Jessica Chastain, Kerry Mulligan felt an inexplicable joy.

Robert Downey Jr. has ran over. It’s not that he saw that it was wrong, but that he was still performing. It was not until he finished speaking and was about to support Jessica Chastain to stand up, only to see her shoulders were blue one slice.

"Doctor!" Robert Downey Jr. immediately shouted to Murphy, "A doctor is needed here!"

Murphy immediately called to stop the crew and asked Paul Wilson to greet the doctors assigned by the crew to come over and hurried over.

He squatted down and took a look. Although there was no bleeding on Jessica Chastain's shoulders, the bruising marks were very obvious, and there were continuous beads of sweat rolling off his white forehead, which was obviously very painful.

"Shit!" Murphy cursed in a low voice, shouting loudly, "Has the doctor come here!"

Several other people in charge of the crew also came over. The doctor holding the medicine kit trot all the way, got out of the crowd, and squatted in front of Jessica Chastain.

"Unrelated personnel, please get out of here." He said loudly.

Murphy waved his hand to the surroundings. The others slowly dispersed. He turned his head and looked for it. Kerry Mulligan leaned against the front of the truck and stood there with his arms folded. It seemed that what happened had nothing to do with her.

"Fortunately," the doctor said, "it's just a skin trauma, it shouldn't hurt any bones."

"Thank you..." Jessica Chastain's voice was very low.

She turned her head, looked at Carrie Mulligan at the front of the car, then at Murphy next to her, and then let out another painful cry.

"Paul," Murphy called his assistant director over, "arrange for a car to take Miss Chastain to the nearest hospital for an examination. Let Erica know about this."

He walked to the door of the truck, and the door handle that Jessica Chastain had hit was a bit crooked.

Maybe Murphy didn't notice when shooting, but now it can be easily discovered that this is not the position set during shooting at all.

For scenes like this with a possible risk of injury, any crew will have stricter fixation. Murphy is no exception. He will not let people hit the metal of the truck, let alone anything else. Once the actor is injured, it will be delayed. Time can make people crazy.

Murphy glanced at Kerry Mulligan and didn't do anything for the time being.

A spacious commercial car drove over quickly. With the help of a doctor, Jessica Chastain got in the car. Murphy walked over to the producer who was in charge of the life of the crew and told him to also After getting in the car, the car drove out of the trail and rushed to the nearest hospital.

Many people in the crew are veteran dough sticks who have been in Hollywood for many years. They have seen a lot of bad things on the set, and some of the people with big heads have their eyes on Kerry Mulligan.

But no one is so stupid to stand up and say something. Although no one has ever made it public, everyone with a discerning eye knows that this actress is the director's girlfriend.

"Paul, that's all for today's shooting." Murphy explained to his deputy director, "Now you are in charge."

After that, he walked to the front of the truck and when he passed by Carrie Mulligan, he said coldly, "Come with me and let's talk."

He walked toward the bridge, halfway there, and found that there was no movement behind him. Looking back, Carrie Mulligan didn’t follow him at all, instead he walked towards her makeup trailer, just like the director of Murphy’s air just now. general.

Murphy turned around, watched Kerry Mulligan enter the makeup trailer, thought for a moment, and walked over.
