Hollywood What If Chapter 267

  Viggo Mortensen received so much appuse from the fans who watched him walk down the red carpet. He still had shoulder-length hair and a short beard. He was John Wibsp;

  He looked around and noticed that behind the reporters who kept clig their cameras, there were a bunch of people who looked just like him...

  It was like he found his twin... So many twins. The fans wore bck suits. They have shoulder-length hair and beards, just like him. They were a bunch of es.

  Viggo heard that some fans of the tial ematiiverse were io the premiere, so Viggo was calm about it.

  He could see that these people loved John Wick because they were wearing his outfit.

  After modeling for the reporters and being interviewed, Viggo ehe theater.

  The first person he found was Kazir Grey. Viggo had so much respect for this guy.

  Kazir was an honorable and talented person. Viggo admitted that this director was the one who gave him a career. And he was grateful for that.

  So he approached the guy to express his gratitude.

  Kazir saw Viggo approag and sighed.

  "Viggo, if you say, 'Thank you for casting me,' I'm going to sucker punch you.

  He had heard that line from Viggo so many times that he was tired of it.

  Viggo was surprised at first, then shrugged.

  "I just wao gratute you, Spider-Man is a box office hit."

  "Gd to hear it."

  Kazir nodded.

  "I hear The Lord of the Rings is ing out in December."

  "That's right."

  New Line ema and Warner Bros. had already annouhat they would release the epitasy film on December 19, 2001.

  This should make the other studios back out of that date and find another date to release their movies. So far, none of the Big Six has annouhat they will release their movies on December 19th. Which means their pn worked.

  Monopolizing a week of theatrical release was good for The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings.

  Everyone knew about the movie and New Line ema had ied so much money in the movie. If all went well, they would make a profit.

  New Line ema only ied in the first movie because they were not sure if The Lord Of The Rings would be successful. If the movie was a hit, they would approve the iment for the 2nd and 3rd sequels.

  This was the same situation with The Matrix. Warner Bros. was not sure if the movie would do well, so they only ied in the first movie. But after knowing that The Matrix was successful, Warner Bros. didn't hesitate and immediately approved the filming of The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions.

  "I heard there was some trouble o."

  "Well, how I expin it? Fans of the novel protested and infiltrated the set, destroying some of the props. They felt that the movie would tarnish the reputation of the story that J.R.R. Tolkie his life telling."

  "You know, these people grew up reading the series and they are afraid that their childhood memories will be repced with something bad if The Lord Of The Rings is badly adapted. However, it's fucked up for them to cause trouble o."

  "Some of the crew got hurt because of them. Sometimes you 't be civil with obsessed fans. They will not hesitate to it crimes."

  Viggo sighed as he spoke.

  "Seems like you speak from experience."

  "Well..." Viggo smiled weakly. "An obsessed fan followed me to my hotel room aered the bathroom while I was sh. She was naked and hugged me from behind. I swear, not a good experie all."

  The woman was beautiful, but that didn't make things aer. Viggot to lock his room because he was too tired. A few mier, a female stranger hugged him.

  Viggo almost had a heart attack when this happened. Fortunately, he calmed down and hahe whole thing peacefully. He called the guards and threw the woman out.

  The woma saying she was John Wick's wife, which was not funny at all.

  "I realized that being famous is not so easy... At least this shows that I'm already a famous person, haha."

  He tried to lightemosphere with a joke, but he noticed that Kazir was looking at him seriously.

  "Hire a bodyguard. Or hire an assistant who be a bodyguard."

  "Should I?"

  "Such things should be taken seriously. Lock your door, always."

  "Yes, I started doing that after the i."

  The two were silent for a few seds.

  "I think The Lord Of The Rings: Fellowship Of The Rings will be successful."

  Kazir muttered fidently.

  "It's f to hear that from you. I'm nervous about The Lord of the Rings. I spent two years in New Zeand just to be a part of this project. I was also a fan of the novel, and it's an honor to be part of the cast, no, it's an honor to be Aragorn. But sometimes I 't help but be nervous. Maybe if someone like you are the one direg this movie, I'll be 100% fident. A lot of small and big problems happened during the filming of this movie. I'm not even sure if there will be a sequel."

  "Am I really that great?"

  "That's right. Your presence is enough to make things better."

  "Damn..."

  Kazir eechless and a bit embarrassed. The fttery was too mubsp;

  "How is it w with Fremont? This is his seovie."

  Fremont Smith was invited by Diso direct John Carter, but Fremont turhe offer down.

  The st time Kazir heard from John Carter, filming was underway, with a possible release year.

  "He's doing well. He swears sometimes, but overall he is fine." Viggo said of Fremont.

  "If a director doesn't swear on a while, he's not a director."

  Cursing was already part of the English nguage. "Fuck" has so many meanings that people sometimes used it to praise someone, like: "Fuck, you're so beautiful." Or "You're a fug genius!" Or "Fuck me in the ass, you big stud!"
