Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 119 The Australian Gang (Part 1)

In the mansion, there is no luxury as imagined, but the decoration style has a kind of medieval simplicity and art.

Tang En appeared holding Natalie's hand and instantly became the focus of the party.

Looking around, there were more than 20 people in total, and many faces seemed familiar to Tang En.

Mel Gibson, as the owner of the house and the eldest brother of the "Australian Gang", warmly introduced it to everyone, "I don't think I need to introduce too much, right? The director of "Titanic" and "Star Wars Prequels" , Dunn Walker!"

Tang En originally thought it was a very private occasion, but he didn't expect that everyone was dressed in formal clothes, men's suits and leather shoes, and women's gorgeous evening dresses, which looked like a hundred flowers competing for beauty.

It is early summer in Australia in November, and even Natalie wore a rose red waist dress.

The atmosphere of the party was more formal than Tang En had imagined. Sure enough, everyone applauded following Mel Gibson's introduction.

Tang En was a little embarrassed, smiled and waved to everyone, but didn't know what to say.

give a speech?

That would be too far-fetched, and it would obviously increase the distance between each other, so Tang En might as well not participate in this party.

Mel Gibson laughed nonchalantly, pulled Tang En, and walked towards the people present one by one.

Natalie walked up to Nicole Kidman with great interest, making room for him.

"Twain, this is Hugh Jackman, an outstanding actor!"

There is no need for Mel Gibson to say, the famous "Wolverine" in front of him, Tang En is too familiar, immediately stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Hugh, I know you, I heard that you took the role of Wolverine in "X-Men" ,Is it right?"

Hugh Jackman froze for a moment, but he didn't react.

"X-Men" hasn't started filming yet, and the role of Wolverine...hasn't been decided yet...

Tang En suddenly felt that he had lost his word. Because of the financial chain and "Spider-Man", 20th Century Fox postponed the filming of "X-Men", and the official start will probably be in December.

Brian Singer, the director of "X-Men" selected by Fox Films, had no previous experience in filming special effects films, so he had been silently stealing lessons from Twain during the filming of "Spider-Man".

Tang En quickly made amends and said haha, "You know, I filmed "Spider-Man", and Marvel is now my company, and I also participated in the script of "X-Men"."

This is talking nonsense with open eyes. Fortunately, with Hugh Jackman's current status, he can't see through it at all. Instead, he feels that Tang En has great energy.

Mel Gibson also guessed a thing or two through the expressions of the two, "Hugh, your role...hasn't been decided yet?"

"The agent hasn't notified me yet." Hugh Jackman looked a little embarrassed.

Tang En raised his eyebrows, and found that Mel Gibson was staring at him with blazing eyes, and immediately turned serious: "Hugh, since I can appear at this party, it is fate. As I said, the role of Wolverine... belongs to you!"

Hugh Jackman looked disbelieving.

If you can use Mel Gibson's channel, of course you know Tang En's influence. Hugh Jackman didn't know about Twain's relationship with 20th Century Fox, but Mel Gibson knew it!

Since Tang En guaranteed that Hugh Jackman could get the role of "Wolverine", he would definitely get it!

"Hugh, shouldn't you say thank you?" Mel Gibson gave Hugh Jackman a look of resentment.

"Ah? I..." Hugh Jackman's face turned red with excitement, and he tightly held Dunn's hands. "I really don't know what to say. I am very grateful to you for helping me get this opportunity!"

Tang En smiled, "It doesn't matter. As I said, meeting is fate. I admire Australian actors very much. They are cheerful, generous, and daring to fight. They are not like the hypocrisy of the British, nor are they lazy like the Americans."

Mel Gibson's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had found a confidant, and he repeatedly praised, "Twain, what you said is great! Our Australian actors are indeed even better!"

Tang En secretly laughed in his heart. This Mel Gibson didn't know whether he was too high-ranking or too confident, and he spoke a little thoughtlessly.

This is not the same as Tom Cruise. Brother Tang is arrears of emotional intelligence. Mel Gibson obviously has no such problem, he has a big mouth.

"This is Simon Baker, and he and his wife Rebecca are Nicole's best friends!"

When mentioning "Nicole", Mel Gibson obviously emphasized his tone.

Tang En didn't know much about Simon Baker, so he exchanged some simple greetings and learned that he was recommended by his fellow villager Russell Crowe two years ago to participate in "LA Confidential" and had been in the TV circle before.

Immediately afterwards, Tang En saw a beautiful woman.

"This is Megan, Megan Gale. I'm still in college, and I've participated in an independent film "Christmas Vacation". Now...Megan, I heard you're working as a graphic model?"

Megan Gale smiled slightly, "It's not a print model, it's a fashion model. I've shot a lot of commercials in Italy this year."

Tang En narrowed his eyes slightly.

As a real movie fan, he especially loves Nolan's "Batman: The Dark Knight". After the filming of this film was completed, it achieved unprecedented success. Warner and DC planned to launch "Justice League" to make it popular again.

As for the set makeup photo at that time, the candidate for Wonder Woman was the slim Megan Gale in front of me!

However, due to the 2009 Screenwriters Guild strike, the film was aborted. Later, when "Wonder Woman" was shot, she was already old and was replaced by a younger model actress Gal Gadot.

And as a Victoria's Secret supermodel, Megan Gale has always been the spokesperson of Australia's image until she retired and was replaced by Miranda Kerr.

"Miss Gail, are you going to be in the fashion industry... or the show business?" Tang En's words obviously had other meanings.

Megan Gale snorted, rolled her eyes smartly, and lowered her voice, "Director, your reputation is not very good. I heard about it in Italy."

Mel Gibson frowned and glanced at her, somewhat displeased.

Tang En looked indifferent, "Then do you want to come to Hollywood?"

Megan Gale shook her head, "I'm still studying, and...my part-time job is enough for my expenses."

Tang En shrugged and walked to the next person. Mel Gibson felt a little helpless, "Twain, this kind of thing...it's not convenient for me to open my mouth."

Tang En smiled, "It's okay, Mel, I know."

Mel Gibson sighed, "Young man, it's good to be aggressive, but sometimes... just ignorance. We won't invite her to our parties in the future."

Tang En shook his head and didn't say much.

Of course he knew that it was impossible for all the beauties in this world to revolve around him. What's more, Megan Gale hasn't been to Hollywood yet, so it's normal to not be able to recognize the reality.

"Twain, this is..."

"Haha, she needs no introduction, Kate, long time no see!"

Tang En opened his arms enthusiastically. Cate Blanchett smiled and hugged him gently, "Tang En, congratulations on your movie box office success."

Tang En blinked, "Which movie?"

Cate Blanchett also chimed in, "That movie you're making right now."

Tang En laughed out loud.

This is an intellectual woman with EQ and IQ, but her appearance is not in line with Tang En's aesthetics. Otherwise, based on his friendship with Hilda Querry, she would have introduced her as a middleman.

At this time, Naomi Watts walked over quietly with a glass of wine, and looked at Tang En with some resentment in her eyes, not shying away from Mel Gibson and Cate Blanchett at all, "Tang En, you Will you still date me?"

Tang En felt dizzy for a moment, "I'm sorry, Naomi, I have to pay attention to Nat's opinion."

Naomi Watts looked gloomy, unwilling to beg.

Mel Gibson quickly pulled Tang En up, "By the way, Russell is over there, you definitely don't know each other."

Russell Crowe is definitely second only to Mel Gibson among Australian actors today.

"Russell, to be honest, I intended to launch a film project this year called "A Beautiful Mind". I planned to have you as the leading actor and Nicole as the leading actress. Unfortunately, due to budget problems, I invested in another film .” Tang En shook hands with him, and was a little surprised to find that his palms were covered with calluses.

Russell Crowe smiled and waved his hands, "Even if you invite me, I'm afraid I don't have the energy. I participated in the movie "Gladiator" directed by Ridley Scott in the first half of the year, and I'm exhausted!"

"Gladiator"!

The movie that got Russell Crowe an Oscar for Best Actor!

The compass of Tang En's thoughts is spinning rapidly. It seems that the movie "A Beautiful Mind" must be launched next year. Otherwise, when Russell Crowe wins the Best Actor award, the film salary will be at least 15 million US dollars!

Now, the commercial film is 8 million US dollars, and the literary film... about five or six million.

"I'm still looking forward to the cooperation between us. How about it, you can talk to Nicole later about the project of "A Beautiful Mind". I believe you will like it."

"why not?"

Of course, Russell Crowe is also looking forward to cooperating with Twain.

No matter what, Twain's movies... are always a guarantee at the box office. Regardless of the type of movie, the box office is always a reflection of the actor's value.

Mel Gibson's face was calm, but his heart was very excited.

Now it seems that the choice of inviting Twain was too correct!

In just ten minutes, he made a profit for Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe.

Not including Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts, who were previously favored.

At this moment, Tang En took the initiative to walk up to a bearded young man and said hello, "Mr. Pierce, what a coincidence."

The man in front of him is Guy Pearce, the protagonist of "Memory Fragments".
