Chapter 702 This is just a suggestion

The large conference room of the Warner Building was full of people, the entire creative staff of Fury Road came here, and Jamie Johnson, the director of Warner's distribution department, could only sit in the corner.

Walking into this meeting room, Charlize Theron found that Duke and Charles Rowan hadn't come yet, and glanced at everyone present, all of them were very familiar faces, and these were all members of the Duke team. Some of the core members have cooperated with him for more than ten years. Such a stable and well-coordinated team is also the guarantee for Duke's continuous success.

Although her personality is a bit cold and arrogant, Charlize is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to behave, and she has become acquainted with these people a few years ago when she often visited Duke Class.

Hi, John. She walked up to the big fat man first, and offered her hand, You seem to have lost a lot of weight.

John Schwartzman quickly stood up and shook her hand, with a smile on his fat face, Hey, Sally, you are as beautiful as you were ten years ago.

The corner of Charlize's mouth immediately evoked a smile. This is what women like to hear the most. Even if she knows that it is not true, she is indeed well maintained, but time still leaves various marks on her body.

After greeting John Schwartzman, Charlize Theron turned to him again, Hannah, long time no see.

Hannah Serena pointed to the seat between her and Anna Prinz, Please sit down, Sally.

Charlize Theron was also polite, and sat between her and Anna Prinz, and greeted the assistant director who was looking down at something, Hi, Anna, what are you looking at?

Oh, nothing. Anna Prinz raised her head and smiled at Charlize. Considering the script.

Nodding slightly, Charlize Theron deliberately winked at Anna Prinz, You must arrange my scenes to be filmed at a suitable time.

Anna Prinz nodded happily, Of course.

There is always a human relationship within the rules. Although the two parties cannot talk about a deep friendship, they are also familiar people.

Charlize is familiar with the entire Duke team. Then he stood up again, greeted the others one by one, and then went to his seat and sat down.

Next to her is the place of Tom Cruise, the actor has not yet arrived.

The meeting room was quiet again, and many people were looking at the plan, just like Anna Prinz, they knew that this was not the type they were familiar with in the past. It is a new attempt and experience.

The door was pushed open from the outside again, and the sound of hurried footsteps sounded, far exceeding the voice of Charlize's whispering greetings just now. John Schwartzman and Hannah Serena couldn't help but frowned and looked at The direction the sound is coming from.

Tom Cruise pushed open the door of the conference room and strode in.

He looked at the people in the meeting room. Without any expression or interest in saying hello, under the leadership of a staff member, he walked directly to Charlize Theron. Nodding slightly to the South African diamond, he sat down.

John Schwartzman and Hannah Serena looked away. Busy with their own affairs again, others just glanced at Tom Cruise casually, and continued to pay attention to their work. No one cared about the Uranus superstar.

They have such capital. Their team has produced several superstars, and such things as superstars are really not rare.

Sitting here, Tom Cruise was a little bored, and his eyes couldn't help turning to Charlize Theron.

Charlize Theron gave him a slight nod, but said little.

Where is Duke? Why hasn't he come yet? Tom Cruise asked casually.

I don't know... Charlize shook her head, It seems to be discussing something with Charles.

After finishing speaking, she tightly closed her mouth.

Like many people in this circle, Charlize also doesn't like Tom Cruise, but she knows that this is Duke's choice of male lead, and she doesn't intend to say anything more, anyway, it's just a temporary cooperation on work. For a relatively fast shooting speed, it doesn't take too long to endure.

Seeing that Charlize Theron was not interested in speaking, Tom Cruise raised his chin slightly and retracted his gaze.

The door of the conference room was pushed open again. Duke and Charles Rowan entered the conference room together. The two walked to the front of the long conference table. Duke handed over the folder in his hand to Dee on the left. Na Fei clapped her hands vigorously, attracting everyone's attention.

I'm sorry to interrupt your vacation. Duke looked at the people on both sides of the conference table and said directly, We are about to start a brand new journey.

He pointed to the plan in everyone's hands, You should have read it, this is not a sci-fi action movie we are used to.

Duke sat down and asked, Do you have any comments?

This film must be shot in the desert... John Schwartzman said first, IMAX cameras are inconvenient to operate, so I asked to modify a new shooting track and shooting vehicle.

These are minor problems, Duke nodded, We need to determine the location of the location first.

Hannah Serena took his words and said, Go overseas, or in North America? If you go overseas, the Middle East and Africa are the best choices.

Hearing these two names, Duke vetoed them without thinking, The Middle East and Africa are too chaotic at present.

If you're not going overseas, Hannah Serena added, the New Mexico desert is the way to go.

Duke thought about his work schedule and said, Next week we will go to New Mexico for a field trip.

New Mexico also has preferential taxation in this area. Charles Rowan obviously agreed with Duke's idea.

We'll talk about this after we've inspected it. Duke turned to look at the person in charge of the props group, David, at least 150 cars are needed for shooting. My idea is that these modified cars are mainly old-fashioned cars. You and Hannah can get them as soon as possible. Come up with a plan.

Well, I'm going to inspect the car market tomorrow. The other party nodded.

After explaining some other things, Duke said seriously to everyone, This is a movie with special effects that need real shooting. In fact, we have no choice. I can't make it a CG movie. We don't violate the laws of physics. There are no spaceships in this film, only sand and sky. And in this film we need to create chaotic and frenzied events and scenes, with countless details, which can be easily achieved with digital software. It’s hard to make that realistic effect.”

And the real shooting is more exciting, we don't need to wait! He emphasized, Fury Road is not a CG movie. Every day in the future will be full of stunts and dangers!

The meeting, like Duke's personal style, didn't last long, but in the end he kept the two actors and production director Hannah Serena.

After the others left, Duke first said to Hannah Serena, The design of the car used for shooting must be cool enough. I need at least 150 modified models. The cars are unique, quirky and aggressive!

The two have worked together for more than ten years, and Hannah Serena naturally understood Duke's meaning, I know what to do.

After finishing speaking, she nodded to Charlize Theron, and left the meeting room first.

Duke turned to look at Tom Cruise and Charlize Theron, That world is operating in an absurd order, humanity has long been exhausted, and in the desert of doomsday there are two fugitives who yearn for freedom, A silent man, and a strong woman, to get rid of the current confinement and domination.

The film will be completely about the two of you, and the lines of the characters are very limited, Duke said to the two people again. Your character traits are not interpreted by lines or dialogue.

Charlize Theron nodded with a smile. She had a feeling that her role was like a female version of Duke, resolute, courageous, calm, steady, and actions always speak louder than words!

This character named Fei Luosha has experienced the tempering of long-term wars. Her eyes are firm and fearless. Under the begging of women who are not willing to be reproductive machines, she is willing to take them away. There is no panic, and when being tracked, he is not afraid of danger, solves it skillfully, and has first-class combat capabilities.

There are too few unique female characters like Firoza in Hollywood, and it is difficult to find similar female characters throughout the history of movies.

It is also such a role, coupled with the confidence that Duke brought her, that Charlize Theron was willing to cut off her beautiful long hair.

For Charlize Theron, Duke is not very worried, but Tom Cruise is different. He looked at each other and said, Tom, all your lines add up to only 20 sentences, and more rely on actions and body language. to interpret your role.

Don't worry, Duke. Tom Cruise said confidently, Can't you still trust me?

Duke nodded. Tom Cruise has been in the industry for decades. Even if his acting skills are a little bit poor, it's not that he can't even play such a role well.

The male lead is indeed difficult, but Duke also made a lot of changes to suit Tom Cruise. For example, the male lead's name is Tom.

The brief triangular meeting came to an end. Charlize Theron stood up and looked at her watch, and said to Duke, I have an appointment with the fitness trainer, so I'm leaving first.

Yeah. Duke waved at her.

Tom Cruise didn't intend to leave, and he waited until Charlize Theron's back disappeared from the door of the meeting room before he said, Duke, don't you think the scene between me and Theron is a little out of balance?

Duke turned his head slightly, and deliberately looked at Tom Cruise with surprised eyes. He didn't find it strange that the other party asked this question. If he didn't ask, he wouldn't be Tom Cruise.

Tom Cruise added, I think the setting between me and Theron's characters can be modified.

Fortunately, he has made some progress over the years, and said, This is just a suggestion. (To be continued ^)
