Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 577 Preparation

Compared to fans like Emily and Gianna, other people's attention to "Sherlock Holmes" is actually not low at all.

If nothing else, just the fact that Charlize is appearing on the big screen for the first time since winning the Best Actress Award is enough to attract attention.

——Although Charlize's cameo in "Sherlock Holmes" was actually filmed before she won the Oscar, the audience and the media didn't care.

For them, whichever they see first is in front.

——Simple and easy to understand, but also a bit unreasonable.

Just like Leonardo DiCaprio, he filmed "The Man in the Iron Mask" at the same time as "Titanic", but it was just because "The Man in the Iron Mask" was later than "Titanic" After being released for a few months, it became "Leonardo DiCaprio's next masterpiece since "Titanic"".

——There is naturally a factor in this that the crew of "The Man in the Iron Mask" borrowed the inspiration from "Titanic", but the simple and crude logic of the audience and the media is also one of the reasons...

And since this is the case, the audience and the media will see it this way anyway. When the "Sherlock Holmes" crew promotes it, they will naturally not let Charlize go unnoticed.

Especially since this is a movie directed by her husband Charlotte...

In short, this time "Detective Sherlock Holmes" is full of gimmicks——

In addition to Charlize's influence as a movie star, keywords such as Holmes and Watson and London at the end of the 19th century are naturally also the focus of publicity.

Many people are very interested in the foggy London at the end of the 19th century.

After all, in addition to "The Detectives of Sherlock Holmes", many of Charles Dickens's works also describe that era.

It can be said that the yearning for the dark London at the end of the 19th century was built up in people's minds by countless literary works.

Living in that era may not be happy, but with the addition of modern people's fantasies, that era had some unique beauty.

Just like in peaceful times, people are interested in war, blood, gangs and other themes.

——In the final analysis, it is caused by boredom.

In the trailer of "Sherlock Holmes" specially edited by Charlotte, he specifically highlighted the feeling of dark London.

——You know, the dark London at the end of the 19th century captured through Charlotte’s lens is not just composed of scenery and special effects.

There are a lot of shots in there, which are true reflections of that era when he passed through the veins at the bottom of the Thames River.

Coupled with the post-production special effects optimization by Spectre Studio, the sense of realism and mystery is not something that ordinary movies can achieve.

This made many people who were interested in that era fall in love with the movie and made plans to watch it in advance.

In conjunction with this, the two leading actors, Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, also became popular before the movie was released.

——After all, they are playing classic characters like Holmes and Watson, so everyone is somewhat interested in them.

Especially Robert Downey Jr., everyone is very doubtful about whether this guy who once went to prison for taking drugs has changed his ways.

Many reporters were interested in reporting on Downey's relapse.

However, Downey has not been able to get their wish so far.

And amid this wave of doubts, everyone's interest in the movie "Detective Sherlock Holmes" is getting bigger and bigger...

And at the end of April, another explosive news appeared, which increased the public’s interest——

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are finally getting divorced!

Although this divorce battle took more than eight months from beginning to end, both the two parties and the general public who were watching the excitement were distracted by this protracted divorce lawsuit.

But when the divorce case was finally concluded, public interest was reignited.

——Just like after a celebrity dies,

Just as there are always people trying to make some final judgments, the Hollywood media have also begun to swarm in summarizing and making "closing arguments" on the divorce battle of the century.

This naturally brings the popularity of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman to another level.

Putting aside Tom Cruise, the fastest way for the public to see Nicole Kidman in the cinema now is "Sherlock Holmes"...

"You didn't already calculate that they would complete the divorce at this time, right?"

Seeing all the coincidences now helping to promote the movie, Charlize always has an unreal feeling.

As for her wife's suspicion, Charlotte shook her head.

"There's no way I could be so accurate, but it's true that I want to take advantage of Nicole's soaring popularity before and after her divorce."

"That's true!"

Charlize nodded, agreeing with Charlotte's statement.

"However, with such a strong publicity, the box office of the movie should be very good in the first week, right?"

"That's natural!"

Charlotte looked proud,

"Don't even look at whose movie it is!?"

"..."

In response to Charlotte's words, Charlize just shook her head, but her eyes looked quite proud of her husband.

Although getting married or having children is not a decision that Charlize makes when she is ready, perhaps as Charlotte said before, there is no possibility that she is truly ready for this kind of thing.

——You won’t know whether the river water is cold or warm until you enter the water.

Even though she had been married to Charlotte for more than a month, she gave birth to Ovelia, and she didn't have time to experience the feeling of a newlywed wife.

But raising children with Charlotte made Charlize feel good.

——Of course, as wealthy people, they don’t need to do everything personally when raising their children, which also greatly reduces Charlize’s mental pressure.

In short, now Charlize finally feels like she and Charlotte are part of the same family.

Under such circumstances, it is only natural to feel proud of your husband's achievements.

However, after feeling proud, Charlize thought of another question——

"Why wasn't this premiere held in the UK? - Would it be better for the Sherlock Holmes story to premiere in the UK?"

"Well..."

Charlotte shrugged.

"You won't believe me when I say the distribution was not settled, so I'll tell you the truth! - because Britain is the home of Jack the Ripper!"

"Are you worried about him causing trouble!?"

"It's possible!"

Charlotte nodded,

"If I cast any special spell during the premiere, Jack the Ripper will most likely come to cause trouble - so, for this movie premiere, first of all, I will not hold it in the UK, and secondly, I will not hold it in Beijing. It’s too cumbersome to cast spells like wall painting during the reflection!”
