Chapter 136

[My symptom called procrastination is kicking in again. Anyway, shout out to Cesar M and Paul P!]

"Cut! That's it, we can take ten minutes."

The director announced and Harrison Ford returned to his grumpy mood.

"Sir, this is your towel."

His assistant understood and quickly handed him a hot towel. They were filming on an island and it was cold at night.

"Thanks."

Harrison muttered and took it. Then another crew member handed him a cup of coffee.

Even though Harrison Ford was shooting Six Days, Seven Nights, his mind was racing. He was thinking about John Wick, which was being filmed in another part of the world.

He was still bitter about that. Harrison Ford expressed interest in the script. He didn't have a problem with wearing a wig to have long hair. It was already impossible for him to grow shoulder length hair within 3 months. So using a wig was the best option. He also didn't have a problem taking training lessons, he was used to it since most of his movies were action movies.

Anyway, Grey Pictures gave him the script and he liked it. Although he wanted to change some things about John Wick, like the dialog...

John Wick has so little dialogue. The antagonist has so many lines compared to him.

A quiet person. That was the best way to describe John Wick. Most of his lines were "Yeah."

Harrison Ford didn't like that.

Because Harrison Ford was a superstar, he obviously had the power to bypass the first and second rounds of the audition.

When the third round was over, he was confident that he would get the part. Of course, the contract would have to be in his favor, such as salary, box office share, and sequels.

After his agent contacted Grey Pictures, the result was not what he wanted. Grey Pictures didn't try to negotiate, they immediately decided to go with Viggo Mortensen.

'Viggo what? I don't even know the guy.'

He could not believe he was losing to an unknown actor. He, a superstar, a person known almost all over the world.

Maybe it was his salary and his unwillingness to sign a trilogy, but Grey Pictures should try to negotiate! They didn't even hesitate and chose an unknown actor.

Out of nowhere, Kazir stopped filming after checking his monitors.

"Let's shoot the scene again in ten minutes. Viggo, your performance is great, but we need better lighting so we can capture it better."

Viggo Mortensen and the other actors nodded their heads. They were really in their zone and felt like they were doing well. They felt like they were real bodyguards working under a mob boss.

Even though there were no gunshots and the punches were fake, they felt like it was all real. It was a unique sensation, as if they were sinking into their roles.

The lighting crew were adjusting the lights. It was a bit difficult because the setting was a bar and that kind of place is usually dark.

After that, filming resumed and the actors did a good job.

'It is good that our pace is on schedule.'

After some grumbling with the Animal Organization, the filming didn't encounter any problems. Animal Organization was quite strict and the dog's working hours, on-set housing and environmental aspects had to be taken into account.

Fortunately, the dog had a better attention span than the baby in The Hangover.

Kazir understood that there would be a lot of dogs on John Wick franchise, and he needed to maintain a good relationship with the Animal Organization to avoid unnecessary hassle.

'Let's deal with that later,'

"Bryan, are you ready?"

"Director, I've been ready since yesterday."

Bryan Cranston smiled modestly. He was excited because the action sequences in this movie were unique and interesting.

He had a scene where he fought John Wick in hand-to-hand combat, and it was a dirty fight to the max. He was excited to imagine it.

His character in this movie was called Kirill. A person who works under Viggo Tarasov (Michael Nyqvist), a Russian mafia boss. He was the strongest person that John Wick fought in this movie.

They started shooting the bar scene since yesterday and he could not wait to get into action.

"Don't get excited, this is acting."
