  "Are you okay?

  Reese put a worried hand on Kazir's forehead. The man looked tired, the dark circles around his eyes were obvious.

  "I'm fine. I 't miss this event. It's the first movie where you're the protagonist."

  "... Okay." She smiled and kissed him on the forehead.

  "Now let's tact Jao hide ygard face."

  "I hope so."

  The two chuckled.

  John Wick ed in the sed week of June. After that, Kazir Grey put all his time into post-produ.

  Of course, he hired his trusted editor, Rector Ri. The two have a good retionship and talk without barriers. Other than that, Kazir had aio take care of other editing jobs such as cutting useless ses.

  The movie was slowly ing together. The dubbing, the sound, the music, the editing, the transitions, everything was going well.

  Then, after spending three weeks in the editing room, Kazir Grey was io the premiere of There's Something About Mary.

  It ublicity stunt to get attention. He would go to the theater with Reese Witherspoon.

  In fact, 20th tury Fox, the ior in the movie, asked Kazir Grey to be one of their promotional methods.

  People love to gossip, and 20th tury Fox would use Kazir and Reese's retionship to create hype. They would use this o their advantage and promote the movie. That way, more people would see the movie.

  Kazir was hesitant at first, but decided to agree. He wao make sure that Reese's movie would be successful.

  However, Reese was the one who was against it. She felt like she was using Kazir and she didn't like it.

  In the end, the two agreed to attend the premiere together. Wheers asked them about their retionship, they gave ambiguous answers.

  "Alright. Looks like you go."

  Reese leased with Kazir's makeover. The bags under his eyes were gone and he looked fresh.

  "We go to the premiere!"

  The two ehe limousine holding hands.

  The main cast of There's Something About Mary was Matt Dilloiller, Lee Evans and Chris Elliott.

  In the movie, these men were obsessed with Mary (Reese Witherspoon). They did their best just to get Mary's attention.

  Some famous actors also attehe premiere. Ed Helms and Pedro Pascal were at the premiere to support Reese. Another reason why they were at the premiere was to promote Napoleon Dynamite III, which will be released in December.

  Even Hugo Lameire was there. He was the director of Napoleon Dynamite II. He was smiling aing the press take pictures of him. The attentio was so-so.

  The limousine arrived and Kazir Grey was the first to get out. He was wearing a gray tuxedo. He held out his hand to a beautiful woman.

  Reese smiled and took his hand. The two walked down the red carpet, looking ogether.

  Reporters bombarded them with pictures and questions, but the two just posed and smiled.

  Most of the reporters were from News Corporation, maybe 2/3 of the reporters.

  Of course, the interview from a major TV work would ask them before they went to the theater.

  "Wow, you look good together." The reporter said.

  The two giggled. Showing their affe for each other.

  "Ahem, I know I'm crossing the line, but I have to ask this question. Are you two dating?"

  Reese and Kazir were expeg this question. They looked at each other before answering.

  "Reese is very important to me."

  "I feel the same way about Kazir."

  "Aww..."

  After that, the reporter let them slide into the theater. Their answer was enough to make a topibsp;

  "I must apologize." Reese smiled bitterly.

  "They made you dirty." She added.

  "What are you talking about? It doesn't me. Besides, it's good for John Wick as well, another method to promote my movie."

  "I see. So only John Wick is all in your head." She pouted and tightened her grip on his arm.

  "Holy, yes."

  "What did you say?"

  "Haha, of course I'm joking."

  "Humph!"

  The two found their seats, which were in the front row with the cast.

  Before the movie started, the higher-ups of 20th tury Fox greeted them. Kazir Grey met Tom Rothman again... As always, they talked about scripts and whether Kazir was ied in w with 20th tury Fox.

  The two of them had a good retionship, so there was o py hard to get. In the end, Kazir didn't promise anything.

  'Our tract with Paramount expires year. Maybe w with 20th tury Fox is not bad... Let's think about it whe there.'

  .........

  ...

  The premiere of There's Something About Mary did well. It grossed 4 million on the first day. That was a good result ba the 90s. Only abnormal movies like Taken could get 17 million on the first day.

  After that, the first weekend got a result of 17 million.

  Unfortunately, The Mask Of Zorro was released in the same week, so There's Something About Mary didn't get the box office champion for that week.

  The weekdays also had a good result. From July 20 to 25, the movie earned another 23 million. All in all, the movie grossed 40 million.

  The budget of There's Something About Mary was only 23 million. It was obvious that the box office already exceeded the iment, which was a good thing.

  It seemed that Reese Witherspoon's career would be better after this. From a sed-rate actress to a first-rate actress who could easily get a million-dolr trabsp;

  However, while others were celebrating the movie's success, one person was grittieeth i.
