Hollywood What If Chapter 208

  Kazir has just fialking to Cameron Diaz. They decided to end their retionship today, ns attached. First of all, they signed a trabsp;

  They had already extehe tra the hope that Taken 2 would not be affected by their separation.

  Now that Taken 2 was in its sed week, the couple k was time to end things between them.

  Taken 2 was a sequel to a successful film and its performance was not expected to be that bad.

  By 14th November 1999, Taken 2 had already grossed 90.03 million. This made it the fastest grossing film of November 1999. In fact, Taken 2 was the sed fastest grossing film of the year behind Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menabsp;

  Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace grossed 191 million in its sed week... A truly terrifying franchise. This franchise has already taken root and created a culture in the US.

  The third fastest grossing film was Toy Story 2 with 80 million.

  The data doesn't lie and it was clear that Taken 2 was a box office hit.

  Kazir Grey let Cameron Diaz leave the café first. It would be awkward if they left at the same time.

  After waiting a few minutes, Kazir Grey decided to leave. After paying, he left the cafe.

  But before he could reach his car, someone called him from behind.

  "Directrey."

  Kazir turo see a man. He didn't know the guy at all.

  Kazir tilted his head and asked.

  "Excuse me? Do I know you?"

  He thought the man was asking for an autograph. Lately, a lot of people had been asking for autographs. His cameo appearances in films made people reise him. So Kazir Grey always had a pen ready for this moment.

  "Okay, you give me some paper and I'll sign it."

  "Huh? N- No, director. You have misuood. I'm not here for an autograph. I'm Agent Franklin Maxwell of the William Morris Agency. I'm Orndo Bloom's agent."

  Franklin Maxwell handed Kazir Grey a business card. The director took the card and firmed that it was genuine. He was a former t of WMA and khe design and look of their business card.

  But Kazir didn't know about this agent. Well, he didn't know much about WMA after getting kicked out anyway.

  Kazir Grey thought that Orndo Bloom could py the role of Wesley Gibson in Wanted, so he decided to ihe guy.

  Most of Kazir's actors were from CAA, UTA, freencers or small agencies. However, he never invited WMA to his project after the Ed Helms troversy.

  It was a very rare moment for WMA. Kazir had already lost his grudge when he found out that Carl Morin and Lawlor Dean had been kicked out of the pany. He was not petty enough to hold a grudge forever...

  "So you're Orndo Bloom's agent? If you're asking for the script, don't worry, we'll fax it to you tonight or tomorrow. Although I would like you to remind Orndo Bloom to keep the script fidential".

  "I uand Director, I will call Orndo Bloom ter."

  Kazir nodded and opened his car, gng at the agent and notig that he wasn't leaving.

  "Do you have something to tell me?"

  "Director, do you mind if we talk for at least five minutes? I have something that might i you."

  "... Alright." Kazir raised his eyebrow and decided to accept the invitation. He didn't have anything to do today.

  The project would start in two weeks and Kazir was taking his time, rexing and living a simple life.

  Now that he had hired a general mao take care of Grey Pictures, Kazir was free most of the time. He never liked being a CEO anyway.

  Agent Franklin Maxwell leased that Kazir had agreed. He immediately took him to a restaurant with private rooms.

  Kazir was curious about the agent's iions. He already had an idea why the agent wao talk to him.

  'Maybe it's something to do with Orndo Bloom.'

  There were many ways to get the roles besides auditioning. es were ohing.

  But there was another method, something that Hollywood was trying to hide, but it was very obvious.

  The casting couch...

  Yes, this thing happened a lot, but mostly hidden.

  The actors or actresses would sleep with someone from the crew, usually people in high positions such as directors and producers. Even casting directors had their fair share of "fun".

  If Kazir was right, this agent would take him to a private room where beautiful women were waiting to be eaten.

  Suddenly, Kazir felt that this could be a trap.

  "Franklin, I just want to remind you that I don't want any trouble. But if anything happens, someone will pay for it."

  "O- Of course, director. Don't worry, my iions are pure."

  'Pure my ass.'

  Kazir thought and followed him. He looked around and firmed that he hadn't found any hidden cameras. Of course, hidden cameras were hard to find, but Kazir was a director and he knew where to put cameras to get a better view.

  So far he had not found any.

  'Maybe I'm getting overfident and thinking I do anything and overe anything. Damn, and I thought Hollywood would never affect me...'.

  A lot of celebrities were arrogant for a reason.

  When they reached the room, Kazir's suspis were firmed.

  Franklin Maxwell opehe door and Kazir saw what was inside. He found seven people in skimpy outfits.

  Seven people... But two of those people were actually men! Their outfits were disgusting!

  'What the fuck?'

  Kazir was stunned and looked at Franklin Maxwell.

  "Ahem... I didn't know your preference, so I decided to add men just to be sure." He blushed in embarrassment.

  Kazir Grey had few women in his life and some people believe that Kazir was actually gay.

  Kazir shook his head. He looked at the people and reised a woman who would bee famous a few years ter.

  But Kazir never inteo py that game.

  "On sed thought, let's talk downstairs. Where people see us."

  "A-alright."
