"I heard Ryan Gosling came back from Houston today."

Tom Cruise is sitting on the sofa, watching a talk show on TV, in which Leonardo DiCaprio, Charlize Theron and his wife Nicole Kidman are promoting "Inception".

"I returned to Los Angeles yesterday morning."

Nicole Kidman came over with a cup of coffee and placed it in front of Tom Cruise, "Still worried about the release of "Eyes Wide Shut"!"

"Eye Wide Opener" is another collaboration between Tom Cruise and Warner Bros. It is very critical and even related to the next cooperation plan.

"Ryan Gosling, Leonardo DiCaprio, Charlize Theron, it's hard to fail."

Tom Cruise withdrew his gaze from the TV, "Otherwise, 20th Century Fox would not have easily backed down when facing Ryan Gosling and "Inception"."

"Inception" will be released on July 2, and "Eyes Opener" will be released on July 16, a full two weeks apart.

Logically speaking, the two films will not have much competition.

(July 13th on Baidu Encyclopedia should be the premiere time, and the official North American release date of the film is July 16th).

However, the box office of "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace", which was released in May, was astonishing. It sold well in both the North American and overseas box office markets. Many evaluation agencies in Hollywood directly gave a global box office forecast of at least 800 million US dollars.

Once "Inception" becomes another "Star Wars Prequel: The Phantom Menace", then "Eye Wide Opener" will encounter the same treatment as "Notting Hill" some time ago.

"Notting Hill" is starring Julia Roberts, as one of the most famous female stars in Hollywood, still can't stop "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace".

Fortunately, the shooting cost of "Notting Hill" is only 42 million US dollars, and the content of the film is very unique.

It tells the story of Anna, a big Hollywood star who went to the UK to shoot, and accidentally went to a small bookstore in Notting Hill to buy books, and she fell in love with the shy boss William.

This film is Julia Roberts, as the most famous actress in Hollywood, went to England to shoot a film

A lot of content is simply a replica of Julia Roberts' real life.

Although the box office of the film has not exploded, it has been relatively stable, and it can rely on long-term screenings to accumulate box office.

By the way, this is a British film, not a Hollywood film, and is the highest grossing British film of all time.

However, "Eye Wide Opener" is a horror film, and its box office is concentrated in the first few weeks of its release. It is impossible to rely on long-term screenings like "Notting Hill".

"What do you think of "Inception"!" Tom Cruise asked his wife Nicole Kidman suddenly.

As one of the main actors of the film, Nicole Kidman has naturally seen the screening of "Inception".

"outstanding."

Nicole Kidman hesitated for a moment, and said: "The theater company has given a screening scale of 3,500 cinemas, which is even comparable to "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace."

This is not her own evaluation of "Inception", but from a group of theater companies.

July is the most competitive summer season of the year, and the fact that a group of theater companies can produce 3,500 movie theaters is enough to explain everything.

In contrast, she had watched the test screening of "Eye Wide Opener", which was obviously a level worse than "Inception".

It's just a lot of words, Nicole - Kidman can't speak, she has roles in both films, and it's best if they can be a big hit at the box office.

Tom Cruise nodded silently, and decided to wait for the box office premiere of "Inception" tomorrow.

Once "Inception" hits the box office on the first day, he can discuss with Warner Bros. to postpone the release of "Eye Wide Opener" by one to two weeks, and stagger the viewing period of "Inception".

Leaving the Orion Films building in the evening, Ryan drove through North Hollywood and took a special look at the haunted house he bought before.

Since the filming of "Chain Saw" was temporarily suspended, the haunted house has been basically vacant, and only occasionally came to take pictures when filming "Reaper".

After looking at it from a distance, he didn't intend to stop, and continued to drive in the direction of Beverly, and gradually drove outside the Bel Air mansion.

Through the car window, Ryan could see that there seemed to be several more cars outside the gate, and some people sneakily took pictures with their cameras.

On the side not far from the gate, there was even a news broadcast van owned by Fox TV Station parked.

Don't ask, they must be some paparazzi reporters who came to secretly take pictures.

With less than a day left before the release of "Inception", the enthusiasm of the North American media for the leading actors in the film has not diminished, but intensified.

Ryan ignored it, drove into the gate, then turned off the engine, got out of the car and walked into the living room.

When I came to the second floor, I saw Charlize Theron sitting on the sofa, reading a script with both hands, with a very serious expression.

Ryan walked slowly to Charlize-Theron, put his hand on her smooth jade shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Charlie, do you need a massage for you!"

Charlize-Theron froze for a moment, turned around and saw that it was Ryan, couldn't help but rolled her eyes, and immediately leaned back, "Give me a shoulder squeeze."

"I've been busy with publicity these days, and my shoulders seem a little uncomfortable."

"Inception" has a lot of promotional activities, almost fully scheduled.

"Happy to oblige."

Ryan put his hands on her shoulders and kneaded them gently, as if he was playing with a beautiful piece of art, "It's a pity that Cindy is not here, otherwise I can relax completely tonight."

Charlize Theron put down the script, stretched out her hand to comb her hair, and enjoyed it comfortably, "You can call Penelope Cruz over, she has been in Los Angeles recently."

Since the filming of "Terminator 3", Penelope Cruz will come over occasionally to get together.

"Good suggestion." Ryan helped Charlize Theron massage for a while, and then sat next to her on the sofa, took out his phone and sent Penelope Cruz a text message.

Ask her to come over and have a get-together at night.

""Beauty Undercover"!"

Ryan picked up the script and took a look, "Warner Bros. project?"

Charlize Theron nodded, and then said helplessly: "My salary is too high, and the crew would rather invite Sandra Bullock to play the role."

The investment in the entire film is only 45 million US dollars, and Charlize-Theron's salary alone is at least 10 million US dollars.

This is the salary before "Inception" was released.

Once "Inception" is a big hit at the box office, her salary can increase a lot.

As for Sandra Bullock, she is not an ordinary Hollywood actor either. She has starred in "Speed" with a global box office of 350 million US dollars and "Love at Second Sight".

"The basic remuneration can be exchanged for North American box office share."

Ryan held the script in one hand and put his arm around Charlize-Theron, suggesting, "That's a good script."

This film had a North American box office of 106 million US dollars and a global box office of 212 million US dollars in its previous life. It was also a film with a female protagonist. Ryan remembered that there seemed to be a sequel film.

"Okay, I'll tell Helen." Charlize Theron chose to agree without any hesitation. She had no doubts about Ryan's vision.

With her current popularity and influence, as long as she promises to lower her salary and ask for a share of the North American box office, it is not difficult to get this role.

"It is estimated that in the next period of time, I am afraid that you will be busier than now."

Ryan smelled the fragrance from Charlize Theron, and said: "Orion Pictures plans to cooperate with the Pentagon to shoot an action movie "Special Forces". I think the role of the baroness in it is very suitable for you."

"Special Forces"!

baroness!

"It's Hasbro's Special Forces!" Charlize Theron seemed to have heard the name of "Special Forces" and the Baroness.

"That's right, it's an adaptation of Hasbro's Special Forces." Ryan explained a bit, "The Pentagon hopes this film can be used as a promotional film for military recruitment."

She's no Hollywood rookieknows what Pentagon support and recruiting promotional videos mean.

The next moment, Charlize Theron hugged Ryan's neck with both hands, half-kneeling on the sofa, their faces were almost touching, "Ryan, how do you want me to repay you!"

As she spoke, Charlize Theron couldn't help twisting slowly, and Ryan could clearly see the black **** lace underwear under her pajamas, as well as a large area of ​​snow-white skin.

"What do you say!" Ryan felt that the male hormones in his body were constantly rising, and couldn't help holding Charlize-Theron's waist with both hands, and integrated her whole body into his own.

While the two were constantly flirting, there was a sound of high heels landing outside, "It seems that I came at the right time."

Penelope Cruz walked in wearing a translucent silk dress, looked at the two hugging each other, walked over with a smile on her face, and then took off her clothes one by one.

"Let's enjoy it together."

Before the words were finished, Penelope Cruz couldn't help giggling, and the laughter seemed to be full of joy.
