Vol 2 Chapter 570: Downey and the Joker

"it's finally over."
When Duke called for approval, the three actors in the field walked over. Scarlett Johansson deliberately yawned and said, "For more than half a year, it's almost like being in purgatory in life. This is me. The hardest movie ever made."
"I really envy you, you can return to a happy life."
Robert Downey Jr. took the conversation and jokingly said, "But I have to roll in purgatory."
"Is my crew so scary?" Duke looked up from behind the monitor. "Do I need to add a special feature for you?"
"It's totally unnecessary."
The flight scene that relied on motion capture has already made Robert Downey Jr. regret it. He quickly said, "Duke, I think my scene is enough. You should consider Scarlett."
Samuel Jackson looked at the time and said to Duke, "I still have a date with Quentin Tastino in the evening. Duke, I'm leaving now."
"I prepared a party at home in the evening..."
Hearing Duke’s words, Samuel Jackson hesitated, and finally shook his head with only one eye, "Sorry, Duke, I made an appointment with Quentin the other day."
The first actor in Duke's "▼, Iron Man" is Scarlett Johansson, and the first actor in Marvel Comics for the entire series is Samuel Jackson.
In the final version of the comics that Marvel has released, the role of Nick Fury is shown in the image of a black American. From appearance, character to behavior, they are all made with Samuel Jackson as a reference, and also With his own consent, correspondingly, Samuel Jackson, who was paid in full, also played the role of the director of SHIELD in the series.
After leaving Warner Studios, many people from the crew rushed to the Duke’s Manor. Participate in a party held by Duke, but because the filming will continue the next day, the party is only limited to drinking, and it has not evolved into a typical Hollywood-style rave party.
"Duke, I heard that in your next Batman, the Joker will be the main villain?"
Holding a large glass of beer. Robert Downey Jr. found Duke, "What do you think of me?"
He didn't seem to be joking, he obviously wanted to continue working with Duke.
"Do you want to play the clown?" Of course, Duke could hear what Robert Downey Jr. meant. "This role is very difficult, and it doesn't match your usual play style."
Every actor has a role that suits him, and there are roles that are not suitable for him at all. Actors who can play all roles well do not exist in this world.
"I think I can."
Probably because the performance in the shooting has been getting better and better recently, Robert Downey Jr.'s confidence is also quickly recovering. "Someone once said that he is the best clown in the world, and no one can surpass his 1989 version of the clown."
Duke frowned slightly, and the person Robert Downey Jr. mentioned was obviously Jack Nicholson.
Robert Downey Jr. took a gulp of beer. Before Duke could ask anything, he said, "Jack Nissenlson once laughed at me and my father. He said we are a stupid family, and the Downey family is a depravity. The lost family. Specializing in perverts and voyeurism, I want to show him good looks, but you know, I don’t have this ability now."
Hearing what he said, Duke had secretly rejected this possibility and replied tactfully. "I will think about it."
Even if it does not involve personal grievances, Duke does not think that Robert Downey Jr. is suitable for the role of the clown. There is no indispensable actor in this world, and Heath Ledger is no exception, but not all actors are suitable for a certain role. . Robert Downey Jr.'s personal qualities are obviously contrary to the clown.
Last year, Duke also met Heath Ledger. According to time calculations, it is estimated that he has already entered Ang Lee's crew. As long as the conditions are right, he is still the first choice for the clown.
As for whether he will die because of this, it is not within Duke’s consideration at all, and Heath Ledger’s drug addiction is not a year or two things, even without this movie and this role, with him The degree of crazy drug use and his own personality, the possibility of death in the end is still infinite.
Moreover, how many of the Hollywood stars who have died are worthy of sympathy?
Ruifan Phoenix died of drug overdose, Whitney Houston drowned in the bathtub after taking drugs, David Carradine was tortured to death by playing abuse games with Thai ladyboys, Heath Ledger died of drug addiction...
This is indeed a circle that cannot be measured by common sense, but there are also many celebrities who are more stressed than them but who are healthy and alive. The road is ultimately chosen by themselves.
Taking 10,000 steps back, what are the consequences of rashly saving a person? This is a society that is extremely concerned about privacy and personal freedom. It is often thankless to touch other people's privacy and secrets.
For this kind of thing, Duke will always only act as a bystander, just like Nicholas Cage suffered a financial crisis, he can only remind a few words at most.
Because there was still shooting the next day, the party ended less than ten o'clock. Others including Robert Downey Jr. left one after another. Only Scarlett Johansson was left behind.
Out of the banquet hall, Duke entered the living room of the villa, Scarlett Johansson followed from behind.
"Can I stay here tonight?" she asked suddenly.
Because of the mother's relationship, this villa has always had Scarlett Johansson's room.
Duke also drank some wine tonight. After hearing this, he couldn't help turning his head to look at her, raising his eyebrows slightly, "Are you sure you want to stay here?"
Although the gaze cast over looked like a hunter looking at the prey, Scarlett unconsciously remembered what Duke looked like an hour later, but she straightened her body and said, "Of course I want to stay here. This is me. s home."
"Your home?" Duke stared at her.
Scarlett looked at him with the same gaze, "Duke, you know what I experienced in my childhood, it was you and my godmother who gave me the warmth of the family..."
Having said this, she had a bit of resentment in her eyes, "Although you have gradually alienated me because of the trivial little problem that I am talking and verbose, but I have been paying attention to you. Your growth, success, and Every achievement I have made has accompanied me to grow..."
"I..." She sighed suddenly, "When a girl enters puberty and should start to fall in love, I found sadly that I have no interest in people of the same age at all, and I am used to being rational, mature and strong. In the same way, my peers are synonymous with childishness and stupidity in my eyes. Then, I know that I like mature men. Do you understand why?"
The former Scarlett Johansson had a very heavy uncle complex in the early days. The Scarlett Johansson in front of him grew up with his mother, and his personality and temperament have changed a lot. Duke did not expect this. It turned out that the uncle complex became his own reason.
The little girl who used to be noisy in front of him has grown up completely.
The relationship between the two people did have a relatively indifferent period of time because of Scarlett's words and troublesome characteristics, but after all, it came to the current path.
Just like Ivanka Trump, Duke never lacks the courage to make a decision when it comes to making a decision.
The next moment, Dukla took Scarlett Johansson's hand and walked up the stairs leading to the second floor. The corners of Scarlett's mouth suddenly turned out a very high arc where he could not see.
"This manor is about to welcome its second mistress."
The housekeeper standing in the corner of the living room thinks so. She has served Duke for many years and knows that Scarlett also has her own advantages. Compared with Ivanka Trump’s troublesome father, Donald Trump, Scarlett Johansson’s family basically has no problems.
Scarlett Johansson and Ivanka Trump have completely different personalities. Although the chattering and trouble-loving personality has gradually changed over the years, they are not the kind of introverted and relatively quiet people.
However, Scarlett will not have commercial conflicts with Duke and the Rosenberg family.
To this day, Donald Trump’s investment in the instant sharing website is still a huge rock between Duke and Ivanka Trump. Although the two broke up peacefully, they never saw it again. Ke has never let go of Donald Trump’s investment.
Ivanka? Trump wants to introduce the Trump family's funds to this company that is favored by Wall Street and countless IT bigwigs. Duke, who can veto it with one vote, is the mountain that cannot be crossed.
Of course, in terms of filming, Duke’s career, instant sharing is not something you can’t give up, but you don’t want to be profited by Donald Trump, who has made him countless times cheap.
Everyone has a bottom line in their hearts. Although Donald Trump’s previous actions did not attract Duke’s counterattack, they also touched this bottom line.
Moreover, there are many companies that are interested in Duke's shares, and he can use it to exchange for something he wants.
For example, the two founders of Google have always wanted to acquire Instant Sharing, and they have contacted Duke several times, but they hesitated about the way Duke offered to redeem shares. After all, even if Duke’s shares have been diluted several times in recent years, He still holds close to 20% of Google shares. If his shares continue to increase, it will inevitably affect the two people's control of the company.
Like this kind of exchange for shares, it is impossible not to pay the voting A shares.
Therefore, Google is always in contact with Duke, and the shares that are shared instantly are not Duke’s non-sale products. What both parties need to do is to find a point that is acceptable to each other in their differences.
There is also Apple. Steve Jobs is also very interested in this website, but his main focus is on the developers of new mobile phone products. Duke also saw it when he went to attend Apple’s new shareholders meeting. Concept version of the new product. (To be continued...)
