Nicolas Cage

Kevin laughed and said:

"Julie, of course you are the heroine."

"However, you have become the heroine, you understand?"

In the intimacy between the two, not all movements, Julie is willing to cooperate.

But now, after Kevin promised the heroine.

All of Julie's shyness and reluctance were covered up by a huge surprise. At this moment, without Kevin talking, Julie has already started to do her best to let Kevin go straight to heaven.

...

In early December, New Line Films, Dawson, Kevin, Dean, and Warner Bros. executives, Johnson, who was in charge of foreign investment in films.

A total of four people watched the project proposal of Kevin's new movie attentively in the reception room of New Line Film Company.

The plot of the story of escaping from the fatal town is very simple, and a few people read it quickly.

Johnson was the first to ask:

"Why use black people as male protagonists?"

"The reason is very simple, if it is just a pure horror film, then the upper limit of this horror film is only 20 million to 30 million US dollars at most."

"But as the male protagonist, black people use this evil witchcraft to refer to the persecution of black people by white people."

"Then killing all the whites in the town by the last black man can greatly stimulate the black people's G-spot and make them walk into the movie theater."

"In this way, the upper limit of the box office will be greatly increased..."

Of course, the biggest reason for the black riots caused by the Rodney King incident, Kevin naturally couldn't say it in advance.

All he has to do is give a reasonable excuse.

As for whether Johnson accepts it or not, he doesn't really care. For the production cost of 3 million, Kevin himself invests 30% of the film and gets a 30% share.

The remaining 70% is shared between New Line Cinema and Warner Bros.

Johnson nodded, accepting Kevin's explanation.

In the face of a successful director, Johnson will not question others casually, let alone this is just a small production with an investment of less than 3 million US dollars.

40% of Warner Bros., or $1.2 million, is invested in a successful director like Kevin.

Dean has even more irresponsible trust in Kevin, and has already made an investment.

After everything was done, Kevin asked CAA to contact his team and the shoot was set for Christmas, after December 25th.

During this period, Kevin needs to choose a suitable shooting location as the specific address of the fatal town in the play.

April 31st, which means Kevin has a maximum of three months to shoot, including promotions.

However, from the perspective of Kevin who has a specific picture in his mind, in fact, two months is enough time. As for the actors, this time, Kevin doesn't need to worry about it.

Except for the heroine's position, which he had to leave ahead of schedule, all other positions were taken care of by CAA.

Of course, he was asked to mention, a black man with an eye.

.....

"The CAA package project, the latest masterpiece of the cutting-edge talented director Steve Kevin, escapes the deadly town and needs a black male protagonist!"

Will Smith, who debuted as a rapper at this time, learned the news through his friend.

Suddenly, I realized that this was the role I needed most.

As a black man, he is deeply aware of Hollywood's rejection of him.

He is so famous in his singing career. If he wants to enter the show business world, the roles he can get are either villains, supporting roles in gag, or good ones, the second protagonist, the second male.

But none of this was what he wanted.

What he wants is the protagonist.

But he deeply knows that there are too few movies with blacks as the protagonists in Hollywood.

As a well-known singer with a film and television appointment, Will Smith hurried to the CAA building after getting the news.

After self-introduction, he was the first to be selected by Dawson as he met the role requirements, had no salary requirements, and was well-known at the same time.

And Kevin, who knew that Will Smith came to the door, also decisively agreed to hand over the actor to him. As a price, he, who won the Grammy Award twice, could only get a mere 100,000 yuan.

But Will Smith has no objection to this.

As a big singer, he is not short of money at this time. What he needs is an opportunity. After signing a film and television contract with Dawson, he took the script to escape from the dead town.

Will Smith decisively invited two veteran actors to train himself in acting.

A little cramming is also useful.

...

In the distance, Kevin, who was enjoying the service of Julie's bite, did not worry about Will Smith's acting skills at all.

As a future big star, Will Smith naturally has a spirituality for acting.

And Get Out is a thriller that doesn't require much acting.

Film is the art of shooting frame by frame, and Smith can always hone it if Kevin has patience.

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rang, interrupting Kevin's enjoyment.

After getting dressed, Kevin opened the door.

Outside the door, Nicolas Cage, who was holding his own pizza, walked in naturally.

27-year-old Nicolas Cage, his face at this time is simply cool and daunting, but after getting to know him these days.

Kevin knew that, in fact, he was a very easy person to get along with.

They were neighbors to each other, and after chatting a few words outside, Cage took the initiative to stop by.

No way, he was very interested in the director Kevin.

In his bones, Kevin is a very proud person, so proud that in order to prove himself, he is reluctant to borrow a little bit of his uncle's connections.

As for his uncle?

The famous Francis Coppola, the director of The Godfather.

The Coppola family, which has been rooted in Hollywood for a long time, naturally does not need to say much about the power of connections.

As long as Nicolas Cage uses his real name Nicolas Coppola in Hollywood, there will be many more opportunities out of thin air.

But there is still a word, proud of him, unwilling.

Genius like him and pride like him, he was still overwhelmed by Kevin's conversation.

Of course, it's actually an achievement.

The first film received a huge box office estimate of 160 million, and the investment was only 1.3 million US dollars.

This made Kevin feel a little admiration for this little brother who was about 3 years younger than him.

"Well, this pineapple pizza is good, but Cage, you must not show this in front of the Italians."

"Otherwise, there will be extremely serious consequences."

Kevin grinned while enjoying the pineapple pizza.

"My favorite thing to do is say, no, to someone who won't let me do something."
