Chapter 3: Tom Holland

The stage lights dimmed as Hayden took a seat opposite the renowned talk show host, Oprah Winfrey. His heart raced with excitement and nerves, knowing that millions of viewers were tuning in to hear his story.

Oprah, with her trademark warmth and charisma, welcomed Hayden to the show and began by congratulating him on his success in Home Alone and his upcoming role in Terminator 2.

"So, Hayden," Oprah began, leaning forward slightly, "you've become quite the sensation overnight. How does it feel to be one of Hollywood's youngest rising stars?"

Hayden flashed a boyish grin, his excitement palpable. "It's been an incredible journey, Oprah. I feel incredibly grateful for the opportunity to do what I love and to share my passion with audiences around the world."

Oprah nodded, her eyes sparkling with interest. "And tell me, how do you balance your acting career with your personal life? You're just a kid, after all!"

Hayden chuckled, running a hand through his tousled hair. "It can be a bit tricky sometimes, but I have an amazing support system. My family has been there for me every step of the way, and my agent Tracy has been a guiding light in navigating the industry."

The audience erupted into applause, impressed by Hayden's maturity and poise beyond his years.

Oprah leaned forward, her eyes brimming with curiosity. "Hayden, amidst all the excitement and success, what are your dreams for the future?"

Hayden paused, his gaze thoughtful as he considered Oprah's question. "Well, Oprah," he began, his voice earnest, "my biggest dream is to create a world where I can do anything I want."

Oprah's eyebrows raised in intrigue. "Tell us more about that, Hayden. What does your ideal world look like?"

A smile tugged at Hayden's lips as he painted a vivid picture with his words. "In my world, there are no limits or boundaries. Everyone can explore new worlds, play different characters, and tell stories that inspire and uplift people. It's a place where creativity knows no bounds and where anything is possible."

The audience listened in rapt attention, captivated by Hayden's vision for the future.

"But more than anything," Hayden continued, his voice tinged with passion, "I want to use my platform to make a positive impact on the world. Whether it's through philanthropy, or advocacy, I want to be a force for good and help make the world a better place for future generations."

Oprah nodded, a look of admiration in her eyes. "That's a beautiful dream, Hayden. And I hope you will succeed."

When Hayden shared his dream, everyone, including Oprah, didn't take it seriously; they just thought that it was a child's dream.

As the interview drew to a close and Hayden stepped off the stage, a sense of anticipation lingered in the air. It was a feeling shared by everyone in the room—a feeling that whispered of the extraordinary journey that lay ahead for Hayden and the boundless potential that awaited him.

As Hayden's interview on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" aired, the response was immediate and overwhelmingly positive. Fans flooded fan mailboxes and called into talk shows to express their admiration for Hayden's talent, charm, and down-to-earth demeanor.

Meanwhile, in Hollywood, Hayden's star was on the rise. Directors, producers, and casting agents took notice of his captivating presence on Oprah's stage. Offers for new projects began to pour in, each one more enticing than the last. Hayden's agent, Tracy, fielded calls and sifted through scripts, carefully selecting the opportunities that would best showcase Hayden's talents and further his career.

Media outlets clamored to feature Hayden in interviews and cover stories. Magazines touted him as the "Next Big Thing," while entertainment news shows hailed him as a breakout star. Hayden's name became synonymous with success, and his face graced the covers of magazines and billboards across the country.

After the interview, Hayden watched as he had already accumulated $60 million of praise points.

He thought about it for some time among the actors he knew, who could portray the role of John Connor better. Finally, he decided that it was Tom Holland because Holland's talent for portraying characters who face seemingly insurmountable challenges with humor and heart could bring a fresh perspective to John Connor, emphasizing his resilience and determination in the face of overwhelming odds. He bought Tom Holland's acting skill for $50 million of praise points.

He obtained a skill called Emotional Depth: Holland has a knack for conveying complex emotions on screen, bringing depth and authenticity to his performances. He's able to evoke empathy and connect with audiences on an emotional level.

And this time the acting skills of Tom Holland are not limited to one genre because Holland has showcased his ability to portray a wide range of characters, from the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to dramatic roles in films like "The Impossible" and "Cherry."

That makes Hayden's acting skill more versatile.

When Hayden returned to the set, Cameron and the rest of the crew were a little worried that the newfound fame would affect him, making him swell and become arrogant. After all, in their perception, Hayden is just a child.

When the shooting restarted, James Cameron's jaw was almost on the ground. If before, Hayden's acting as Connor was very good, then now it's more perfect, especially since he expressed and added more emotion to the role of Connor.
