Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 366 The Devil Arrives

Jodie Foster stood in front of the swimming pool used for filming, waiting for the order to start filming while brewing emotions.

"You don't need to complete all the performance requirements. After Ruifan possesses you, he will be responsible for the part of the demon Manmeng. You just need to show Angela's struggle and that ferocious and dangerous beauty!"

It should be said that Charlotte's method of two people, no, it should be said that one person and one ghost share the same role, is indeed something Judy has never heard of.

Theoretically, this indeed reduces the difficulty of performance and makes completely conflicting performance needs possible.

But that's only in theory.

The specifics can only be known after the shooting.

Judy felt that this method of using ghosts to possess the actors to perform the effect of demonic possession was actually somewhat of a true performance.

"Filming with Charlotte, interesting things often happen."

The movie queen was thinking wildly in her mind when she suddenly heard a sound——

"!"

************

Keanu Reeves thought that the scene against the demon Mammon would be easier.

After all, he also filmed action scenes and some special effects scenes in "Speed".

He knows that the difficulty of these shots lies more in how to achieve the performance the director wants.

Generally speaking, the acting requirements for actors are not too high.

For Keanu, who struggled with acting skills but had good physical fitness, this was actually a relatively easy scene to film.

However, in "Hell Detective", things are different from what he thought.

His role as Constantine was okay, but Jodie Foster's role as Angela was still subject to very high performance requirements by the director.

In fact, those requirements sounded beyond the scope of normal human acting abilities to Keanu.

Of course, Jodie Foster is a double Oscar winner, and her understanding of acting may be much deeper than Keanu's.

Now that she finally agreed, maybe she could do it.

Moreover, as director Charlotte said, those performance requirements cannot be said to be unreasonable...

In short, Keanu Reeves is looking forward to his next performance.

And the actress did not disappoint Keanu's expectations.

In the subsequent filming, he could clearly feel the two completely opposite feelings in Angela played by Jodie Foster——

Demon Manmeng’s ferocity and triumph;

Angela’s own struggles and fears;

At the same time, she still had a terrifying beauty about her.

"To be able to do this, your acting skills are truly amazing!"

Keanu now only has the word "submit" left.

However, he still has to do what he should do——

In subsequent scenes, his character Constantine has to fight Angela, who is possessed by the demon Mammon, and temporarily subdue her.

Although these scenes do not require high acting skills, they involve a lot of action and special effects, and it is not easy to film them well.

In fact, in the original "Hell Detective", there were not many scenes in this part.

Constantine and Chas quickly controlled Angela, who was possessed by Mammon.

But in Charlotte's view, this was a failure.

After all, before the twist at the end of the movie, Manmeng could be said to be the big boss.

Such a BOSS has no characteristics at all when fighting, which is really disappointing.

Charlotte didn't know whether this was because the original "Hell Detective" had poor pacing control and did not leave much time for this part of the plot, or because the original director didn't have any ideas for this part and lacked imagination... …

Anyway, now as a director, Charlotte feels that this is not acceptable.

Therefore, in his design, the scene of knocking down Manmeng was specially enhanced——

Constantine is responsible for attracting firepower from the front, and his young apprentice Chas is responsible for containing it.

The one who completed the final blow became Father Midnight.

To this end, Charlotte also specially designed special effects scenes.

Because, according to his design, Father Midnight's soul sneaked into hell and found Angela's sister Isabel.

Then, by borrowing the spiritual connection between sisters Angela and Isabel, he reversely suppressed Menmeng who was possessing Angela.

——It started because of Isabel and ended because of Isabel.

This method of dealing with Menmeng is somewhat like reincarnation.

"It's a pity that the special effects of these clips haven't been added yet, otherwise, they would look very interesting!"

Charlize, who played Isabelle and was a hit in this part of the scene, was also interested in the scenes Charlotte described.

She complained about not being able to see the finished film soon, and Charlotte smiled slightly,

"Sally, did you forget that we have magic effects that we can use?"

Hearing Charlotte whisper in her ear, Charlize's eyes lit up.

"You mean-"

"Come to my room tonight!"

The meaning of Mr. Director's words was ambiguous, but the girl who realized that it meant killing two birds with one stone simply rolled her eyes at him...

************

Of course, how to "watch" the film in the evening is all at night.

After experimenting with the method of River possessing Jodie Foster, and the two of them sharing the same role, Charlotte decided to use this method to show Angela who was possessed by the demon Mengmeng.

It should be said that the effect is very good.

Therefore, the filming on Christmas Day went very quickly, and soon the most critical shot of the movie was reached——

Constantine committed suicide to summon Lucifer to the world.

Although previously relying on the spiritual connection between sisters Isabel and Angela, Constantine, with the help of Father Midnight and Chas, controlled Angela, who was possessed by the demon Manmon.

But due to the intervention of Archangel Gabriel, the mastermind behind it, they ultimately failed.

Chas is knocked unconscious;

Isabel's soul suffered in the endless flames of hell;

And the most threatening Father Midnight was simply killed.

Constantine, who was already dying from lung cancer caused by smoking, had no choice but to resort to a trick——

Summon Lucifer to come and fight the demons Manmon and Gabriel with fire against fire!

In the previous story, Constantine explained to Angela that the moment a person dies, time will pause in his eyes.

The dying person will see the demon leading his soul to hell at this moment.

——Of course, if you are going to heaven, you may see angels or the gate of heaven.

When Constantine was a teenager, he committed suicide once because he couldn't bear the gift of seeing demons——

This is actually the real reason why he cannot go to heaven.

——Just like Angela’s sister Isabel, according to the rules, those who commit suicide cannot go to heaven...

And for the same reason, Constantine also witnessed the horror of hell during that brief death, which became the motivation for him to become an exorcist.

But since then, he has registered with Lucifer, the King of Hell.

Lucifer will definitely come to collect his special soul at the moment of his death.

This was the opportunity Constantine was waiting for to fight back.

And while filming the sequence of Lucifer's arrival, time stopped.

It’s not the time-stop effect that needs to be photographed, but the real feeling of time stopping.

At least, that's what Jodie Foster, who plays Angela, feels like she's lying on the floor.

However, what came next was not Lucifer.
