Roman Siannis killed Sal Maroney with a powerful accidental blow. In the abandoned warehouse, there was a brief silence. Maroni's men drew guns one after another, but Roman Siannis pulled them out faster than them. Two dark pistols with silencers fired quickly.

No bullets.

After a swooshing sound unique to a silencer pistol, most of the surrounding minions who didn't have time to shoot had fallen, and the rest did not dare to make any extra moves.

The two figures in the darkness never responded.

After scanning the muzzle for the last week, Roman Sinnis nodded with satisfaction and said, "From now on, I will be your boss."

Saying that, he kicked Sal Maroney's body away, sat down on the chair and looked down at the information on the table.

One of the minions in the warehouse saw that Roman Siennis turned his back to everyone and looked at his companion next to him. The two of them drew their guns at the same time and wanted to make a sneak attack. Just when they made a move, Roman Siennis picked up the silenced pistol in his hand. Back is two shots. With the sound of his body falling to the ground, Roman Sinnis looked at the information in front of him as if nothing had happened, and said, "Death Shooter, Crocodile Man, yes, very good."

After speaking, he looked up and finally looked at the two figures who had always been calm: "So, are you willing to work for me?"

The camera finally aimed at the two figures and slowly pulled in.

The audience can also see the appearance of the two people. One of them wears a prosthetic eye that emits red light. , grinned in response, revealing a crocodile-like vicious face and sharp teeth.

Although the two did not speak, Roman Sionis got the answer he wanted, so he nodded again and said, "Very good."

Speaking of turning the information in front of him another page, the camera swept to the word 'Batman' on the page, and Siannis said: "Then, let's start with this bat."

At this point in the plot, in front of the big screen, Shirley Lansing raised her wrist and glanced at her watch again.

7:30.

really.

Simon Westeros perfectly and precisely uses those thirty minutes to fully unfold the plot of the film.

Usually, like Sally's restaurant in "When Harry Met Sally" is called a bed scene, like the humorous details of Jones killing the knifeman in "Indiana Jones", like the classic swing in "Pulp Fiction" Dance, blah, blah. A movie with one or two classic passages is enough to make it memorable and drive a lot of box office success.

This "Batman" at this time, in just 30 minutes, the stunning wedge at the beginning, the shocking kick of Catwoman, and the terrifying pencil of the black mask can all leave a deep impression on the audience. With the film skills shown by Simon Westeros in recent years, Shirley Lansing doesn't think the next episode will be any less than the opening thirty minutes.

The circles began to spread the unusualness of Simon Westeros' new film very early, and Shirley Lansing thought it might be an exaggeration, but now, she has no doubts at all in her heart.

Although it was Simon Westeros who made her become the ceo of MGM-United Artists, Shirley Lansing was not completely attached to Daenerys Entertainment's mind, and no one would want to become a vassal. Now, she feels that in the future Hollywood, hugging the thigh of Simon Westeros tightly is the most sensible behavior.

Thinking of this, Shirley Lansing couldn't help but look somewhere in the front row and quickly found the figure of Westeros. The other party seemed to have said something to his girlfriend next to him, then got up, quietly left the hall and turned backstage.

Seems like a good opportunity to communicate with each other.

However, after a moment of hesitation, Shirley Lansing did not get up, but turned her attention back to the big screen.

The movie that is being played gave her a lot of inspiration in the first 30 minutes, and there will definitely be more surprises in the future.

Just because Shirley Lansing didn't get up doesn't mean others won't.

There were more than 1,200 people in the screening room, and there were definitely a lot of people who came to Simon Westeros, the Hollywood tycoon and super-rich.

In the backstage of the Holy Citizen Auditorium, Simon went to the bathroom, and just after returning to the rest area, he saw a tall and slender girl casually walking from the entrance of the hall.

"Hey Nicole, are you going over there?"

Nicole Kidman listened to Simon take the initiative to say hello and pointed to the direction of the bathroom behind him, and nodded subconsciously: "Well, yes."

After hesitating for a while, seeing that the man did not intend to return to the hall immediately, but walked to a sofa in the corner of the rest area, so he did not rush forward to talk to him.

Pretending to go to the bathroom to put on makeup and come back again, another woman has appeared beside Simon. Judging by her skin color, this should be a Latina girl, with a much hotter figure than her. Moreover, there was a sofa next to him, but the woman was sitting next to the arm of the single-seat sofa where the man was, with one arm still on his shoulder.

I don't know if I should step up to interrupt, but after a pause, Nicole walked over.

Simon watched her come over and introduced: "Nicole, this is Sabina, she is from Italy, Sabina, this is Nicole."

Sabina Freili stood up, reached out to Nicole, and said with a distinctly non-standard Italian accent in English: "Hello, Miss Kidman, I really like your performance in Pulp Fiction."

"thanks."

Nicole shook hands with her, but she couldn't remember who the other party was. It seemed unreasonable to want to praise the other party for speaking good English.

Sabina Freili didn't let this cold scene happen. After greeting Nicole, she turned back to the man and leaned over to his ear and whispered in Italian: "I've been living in Valerie these days. Where's the apartment, Simon, you can call me anytime."

Sabina Furelli and Valerie Golino, both Italians, met at the last Gucci show at Milan Fashion Week and quickly became good friends. Sabina just explained that she is here to cheer for Valerie Golino this time, and she has signed with wma and wants to try her luck in Hollywood.

Simon looked at the infinite scenery in the dress when the hot girl leaned towards him, and said, "It's a pity, Lina, I'm going to Australia tomorrow."

Sabina Freili was a little disappointed, but didn't bother any more, said goodbye, nodded to Nicole who was still standing next to her, and walked towards the hall.

There are many other people in the backstage, Nicole is not as open as Sabina Freeli, sees the other party leaving, and sits down on the sofa next to Simon.

Simon ordered the backstage staff to bring two glasses of mineral water, looked at Nicole, and said, "How do you feel, this movie?"

Nicole said: "The pencil shot just now is so scary, I won't dare to touch the pencil again in the future."

Simon smiled and said, "Actually, the original shot is more scary, there will be blood flowing out, and I am worried that it will be hindered by the rating, so I can only remove the blood."

This "Batman" was finally rated PG-13.

Although Simon has changed the details of the bloodshed, some judges in the film rating process still think that this scene is too violent and may leave a psychological shadow on the audience. However, because of the strong influence of Daenerys Entertainment and Warner Bros. Pictures, Simon's final version received a pg-13 rating without any changes.

As for the pg class, Simon didn't think about it from the start.

Nicole's expression seemed to be very interested, leaning over slightly to listen to Simon talking about the behind-the-scenes scenes, nodded, and said, "Why don't you go back to the lobby, are you worried about the box office of the film?"

Simon gestured towards the hall where the sound came from and said, "I can recite the whole movie now, it doesn't matter if I watch it or not. As for the box office, I'm still a little confident."

After being busy for more than half a year, and the preparation time in the early stage is longer, almost every scene in the film is engraved in Simon's mind.

In terms of box office, regardless of the film and television dramas in the 1960s, as "Batman", which has become one of the symbols of American culture, is the first serious live-action film since the birth of half a century, Simon from Don't worry about its performance in business in the first place.

As the childhood memories of countless Americans, as long as this film is not too bad, the only thing that needs to be considered is the issue of making more money and making less.

Of course, if the film cannot satisfy the audience, then if you want to make a series, the result will only be like the original time and space Tim Burton version of Batman, sold out of feelings, one box office is not as good as one, and ultimately unsustainable . Therefore, Simon is not worried about the commercial performance of the first film of "Batman". He thinks more about how to continue the DC superhero ip in his hands and build a complete and lasting DC movie universe series.

Speaking of which, Terry Semel has determined that he will fully honor Warner Bros. Pictures' investment share in the sequel after seeing the sample for the first time. During this time, Warner Bros. has been inquiring about whether Simon will direct the sequel himself.

Simon has yet to give Warner a final response, but he has no intention of continuing to direct. He prefers to be a character like Kevin Feige in the original time and space, who controls the overall situation and does not have to do everything by himself. What's more, if the dc movie universe is fully rolled out, he doesn't have that much time to be hands-on.

The staff brought two bottles of water over, Nicole took it, handed a bottle to Simon, opened it and took a sip, closed the lid and put it back on the round table in front of him. To the man, he said, "I, you, in fact, I could have tried the role of Catwoman."

Just that cool kick on the big screen just now, Nicole is sure that Valerie Golino's Catwoman character will definitely be deeply rooted in people's hearts. If she could get this role at the beginning, then, besides Mia, she will now have a second very classic screen image.

Simon glanced at Nicole, smiled and shook his head: "You are not suitable for this role."

In fact, Simon also considered Nicole when he was casting.

However, Nicole seems to have never acted in an action drama in memory, and even turned down the heroine of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith".

Moreover, Simon hopes that the role of Catwoman will play the role of a black widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in his own imagination, so it is inevitable to refer to Scarlett Johansson in the casting process.

In this regard, Valerie Golino and Scarlett Johansson still have many similarities. Both of them have very good acting skills. As an Italian, Valerie Golino is not bad in appearance, and has a similar appearance with Scarlett Johansson. Carrie Johansson has a similar hot body.

In addition, compared with Nicole, who is 1.8 meters tall, Valerie Golino is also comparable in height to Scarlett Johansson, which makes it easy for her to find a suitable substitute for her body shape during the filming of action scenes.

Last but not least, Valerie Golino doesn't have any background in Hollywood, so she's obedient enough to endure hardship and to stand up to the training and shooting of high-intensity action scenes. In comparison, Nicole is still the charming young lady of the Kidman family.

Respectful, it's hard to make an action movie.

As for looks, Nicole is indeed better.

It's just that, in Simon's current position, when choosing the role of "Batman", appearance is not the first priority at all, and suitability is more important.

At this point, the appearance of the heroine of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the original time and space has always been the object of many fans' complaints, especially compared with the long legs of dc's high-end vases. However, in business, Marvel, without a vase or long legs, can make dc explode without leaving any scum.

Of course, Simon will not fully refer to Marvel in the selection of the heroine, nor will he make the kind of "Thor 3" that obviously replaces a Valkyrie character who should have been blond, white and long-legged for the sake of political correctness. Scumbag brunette, but at the same time he will never allow some obviously out of place vases to appear in the movie universe he created for the sake of appearance.

Nicole just complained a little, and heard Simon say that she was not suitable, but she couldn't know the detailed reason, she just thought that some of her own actions at the beginning annoyed the young man in front of her.

After thinking about it, Nicole said, "Simon, isn't Daenerys planning to shoot "Wonder Woman"? Maybe, I can try."

Simon looked at Nicole again and smiled: "You don't know that the role of Wonder Woman has been confirmed, right?"

"Know a little, that, Famke Janssen," Nicole nodded, but was not reconciled: "She's not as famous as me."

Simon gestured to the lobby where the movie was being played, and said, "Adam and Valerie are not as famous as you, but it won't be sure after "Batman" is released."

Nicole recalled the performance of the two on the big screen just now, and did not doubt it. So, thinking of Famke Jensen, Nicole felt a strong threat even more.

The woman, like her, was a tall type, and she was also very beautiful. If she is more popular than herself in the future, she will definitely take away a lot of resources that should belong to her. There are not many roles that Hollywood can leave to tall actresses, not to mention, she will have Simon Westeros. support.

Thinking of this, Nicole's expression became resentful again, with a very pitiful kind of heart-warming man, and said: "Simon, let me try the role of Wonder Woman, I promise I will listen to you very much in the future. "
