Hearing Ronan’s promise, David Fincher said directly: "I took this project. Mr. Anderson, you can ask my agent to talk about the contract."
He has heard of Ronan’s reputation and has an excellent reputation in Hollywood. It can be said that he is well-known. Now that he has made a promise, he may not regret it in the future.
Besides, these will inevitably be reflected in the contract.
Ronan was happy, David Fincher was unambiguous, and the two sides quickly reached an agreement.
The next specific matters will be discussed by Shahai Entertainment and David Fincher's agent.
David Fincher’s director’s pay is not low. Hollywood has clear standards. Generally speaking, director contracts are easier to talk about than actors. Most directors do not have as many weird requirements as star actors.
A star like Jennifer Lopez is difficult to serve, not to mention her and the messy service staff from assistants to stylists to friends. Even her pet cat has to hire two babysitters. Fourteen hours of dedicated care.
Compared to many Hollywood stars, the stars on the other side of the Pacific are still in the lower stage of playing big names.
The crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" filmed in Rosario, Baja California, encountered the dilemma of celebrities playing big names.
On the artificial lake set, the crew just got ready. It was like being suddenly pulled by the switch. They could only stop temporarily. The actors in front of the scene and the staff of various types of work behind the scenes were all helpless, with a trace of helplessness. anger.
Keira Knightley pinched her waist with both hands, stood on the wooden deck, turned around several times, and said to the opposite Christian Bale: "It's just Johnny Depp who is special? This is the first time. Ha... everyone waits for him."
Christian Bale stretched out his hands helplessly, the dissatisfaction on his face was beyond words.
A thin, skinny actor stood on the mast against the scorching sun. Seeing that he couldn't shoot, he quickly got down from the mast.
Another pirate dressed as a one-eyed dragon came to his ear, muttering that he didn't know what he was talking about.
The person in charge of the photography team and the director of photography of the film crew Darez-Worski saw that he could not shoot, so he quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted a few words and called the shooting boat back in the artificial lake.
The latest digital cameras have extremely high environmental requirements and cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time.
The heads of various other behind-the-scenes departments all looked at director Gore Wibinski. Director Gore Wibinski took the megaphone handed over by assistant Charles Gibson and shouted: "The actor returns to the resting place. Make up, other departments except the film crew maintain the status quo!"
He put down the megaphone and shouted, "Who can tell me where the **** hero went!"
At the end of the morning filming, there was no makeup removal. After a break at noon, Johnny Depp, who had been in the dressing room, suddenly disappeared.
Assistant director Charles Gibson also didn't know how to answer.
Gore Wibinski growled: "He was still filming in the morning, why did he disappear after lunch?"
Not far away, the assistant producer Craig Wood couldn't get through to Johnny Depp's cell phone and quickly called the producer Jessica Felton.
Jessica Felton, who was coordinating the second investment with the Pacific Investment Foundation, immediately rushed to the set and quickly learned the specific situation from Craig Wood.
Jessica Felton has been in office for more than a month and has adapted to the role of producer in charge of the crew. Knowing that now is not the time to hesitate, as a producer, he must act decisively and deal with this emergency as soon as possible.
Strictly speaking, it is not a sudden situation. Before she took office, similar situations had happened several times in Johnson Depp, the actor.
Jessica Felton dialed Johnny Depp’s cell phone again, but no one answered, and then dialed Johnny Depp’s agent’s cell phone, with a busy tone.
"Cray, you immediately contact Johnny Depp's assistant or other people around you to determine the location of Johnny Depp." Jessica Felton knows that this is Mexico, although it is unlikely that anyone would dare to provoke Hollywood. 'S crew, but this situation cannot be ruled out: "If Johnny Depp's assistant can't contact him, report to me immediately."
"Okay." Craig Wood didn't dare to hesitate.
Jessica Felton said to another assistant: "Immediately launch the crew security to look for it on the set. Don't let go of every corner. You go to the hotel in person to see if Johnny Depp returns to the hotel. Yes. Hurry, report to me any time you have news."
The assistant did not dare to delay, and quickly greeted the security officer to leave.
Jessica Felton rounded her loose long hair into a ponytail, and quickly came to the caller Gore Wibinski. Gore Wibinski immediately hung up the phone and told Jessica- Felton nodded.
"How's it going?" Jessica Felton pointed to Gore Wibinski's cell phone: "Did you reach Johnny Depp?"
Gore Wibinski said directly: "I just called Johnny Depp's agent, and the agent doesn't know where he went." He couldn't help but rushed up: "Shit. He left the entire crew here! Is there any basic professional ethics!"
The director, who is not bad-tempered, patted the temporary office desk in front of him.
Jessica Felton soothed: "Gore, calm down, I have sent someone to find it."
Although Jessica Felton was the producer who came here suddenly, Gore Wibinski is very familiar with her, and the two parties have collaborated in the post-production of "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl".
George Clint left the crew, and as a director, he also thought that no one was more suitable than Jessica Felton.
The only worry is that Jessica Felton is a woman and it is not easy to be a female producer.
But after more than a month, Gore Wibinski gradually dispelled his worries. He had seen Jessica Felton's professional ability a long time ago. There is no doubt about this. The ability to handle affairs is also serving as a post producer. Human time has been tempered, and the emotional intelligence of being a person is very high. I rarely intervene in specific shooting affairs rashly. It is probably because of the background of the editor. I know that professional work is handled by professional people.
Occasionally, the conflicts that broke out in the crew were also handled properly, allowing the crew to run on a normal track.
Maintaining the normal operation of such a large crew is enough to prove the ability of the producers. Some producers have big heart and ability, but they will mess up the crew.
Jessica Felton is big-minded and capable.
The phone rang and Gore Wibinski quickly connected. After hearing a few words, he hung up and said to Jessica Felton: "Johnny Depp's agent can't reach him either. "
The delicate mixed-race skin on Jessica Felton's face is a bit dark. This is the first time I have encountered such a bad thing. The actor suddenly disappeared from the crew. This is not a trivial matter.
If something happens, the trouble for the crew is not big, but huge!
How to do? Jessica Felton subconsciously wanted to call Ronan, but grabbed the phone and held back.
She is now the producer and leader of the crew, not Ronan Anderson, and Ronan is far from Los Angeles, and now she can only handle it.
Craig Wood ran over and said, "Assistant Johnny Depp has gotten through, and he is also looking for Johnny Depp."
Gore Wibinski had a bad premonition and whispered, "Jesse, will something go wrong?"
Jessica Felton forced herself to calm down: "I have already mobilized people to find it." She suddenly remembered something and asked: "Gore, it's not the first time Johnny Depp didn't appear on the set on time. Right?"
"Yes." Gore Wibinski told the truth: "There have been two times before, but both of them were severely late in the morning."
Jessica Felton frowned with nice eyebrows: "Be late? Why?"
Gore Wibinski quickly said: "Johnny Depp is addicted to alcohol. Those two latenesses were all caused by being drunk the night before."
Jessica Felton squeezed her chin: "Drinking addiction?"
The phone rang again, Jessica Felton picked up the phone, and another assistant’s voice came from inside: "BOSS, I’m at the hotel, Johnny Depp has not returned. I asked the hotel staff carefully. They determined that Johnny Depp did not come back after leaving the hotel this morning."
Jessica Felton buckled the flip phone and said to Gore Wibinski, "Not in the hotel."
Gore Wibinski suffered from liver pain. It was the first time he encountered such a strange actor in this not long career as a director.
Jessica Felton didn’t stop, thinking of Gore Wibinski’s words about Johnson Depp’s alcohol addiction, and said to Craig Wood: “Call up all the assistant producers and assistant directors immediately. , Go to the studio and all the places around where you can drink. Also, remind everyone that they signed a non-disclosure agreement when they entered the crew."
Craig Wood quickly summoned his staff and hurried away.
Only Gore Wibinski and Jessica Felton are left here Gore Wibinski asked, "Should I call the police?"
Jessica Felton shook her head: "No, Mexican police..." She glanced at her watch: "After half an hour, if there is no news about Johnny Depp, we call the police."
Worrying about temporarily overshadowing Johnny Depp's sudden disappearance of anger, Jessica Felton walked around anxiously, making calls from time to time, and most of the crew had already been dispatched.
Ten minutes later, a phone call came and finally got good news.
Jessica Felton hung up the phone, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Johnny Depp found it. He was drunk in a bar and was sleeping with a cat."
Gore Wibinski's fire was immediately ignited, and a string of swear words couldn't help but came out of his mouth.
Jessica Felton did not persuade, because she was also very angry, but anger could not solve the problem. After calling to find the manpower, she dialed the number of Johnny Depp’s agent: "I’m Jessica Phil. Don, you must come to Rosario tomorrow, we need to have a good talk."
