Hollywood What If

After talking with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Kazir Grey and Cameron Diaz returned to their seats.

Director Fremont Smith was sitting next to Kazir. His expression was a mixture of nervousness and excitement. He was greeting so many people. His agent, Salvatore Barlowe, told him to make a connection as early as possible.

Fremont understood the importance of having relationship with the important people in the industry.

In fact, the main reason he got his job was because of his connection with director Kazir Grey. And for that he was grateful. He knew that it would be impossible for someone like him to get this mantle easily after working in the industry for almost four years.

Some of his colleagues who started the same year as him were even jealous and hated him. There was a time when he tried to invite them to work for him and be a part of his newly formed crew, but some of them declined his offer.

They didn't feel comfortable working with someone who was on the same level as they were a year ago. On top of that, Fremont Smith was just a new director and this would be his first project, no one had confidence in him.

It was a miracle that he became the director of Taken 2. He thought that the cinematographer Renner Hector would direct this movie, but Fremont got it.

When Kazir offered him the director's chair, Fremont knew this was his chance to take things seriously. So he immediately agreed.

Fremont felt bad that Renner Hector didn't become the director. He knew that Renner Hector was good at camera angles and making beautiful shots.

Well, Fremont did have fun, but the pressure was still strong and he struggled to keep his mind calm.

"Fremont? Fremont?"

"Huh?"

Fremont Smith snapped back to reality when he realized that someone was calling his name.

He turned to his side and found his mentor, Director Grey, calling him.

"Fremont, are you okay? I was calling your name, but you're not responding."

"I'm sorry Director, I guess I'm just too stressed right now."

"That's normal. I'm also nervous before the premiere. But I started to love the pressure and stress of filmmaking. Once you get used to it, you will look for it every time." Kazir laughed.

The stress before the release of his films was indeed suffocating. But once the box office results were announced, that stress and nervousness turned into euphoria. An addictive pleasure Kazir didn't want to let go of.

"Thank you, director... Although I'm still nervous."

"That's good. It means you love what you're doing. If you're not nervous, it means you don't love your creation."

Fremont Smith nodded, learning something else from his mentor.

As they talked, a person approached them and said hello.

"Hello, Director Grey and Director Smith."

Scarlett Johansson appeared. Unlike two years ago, the little girl was now taller and looked much more mature.

After greeting the two directors, the teenager glanced at Cameron Diaz and gave her a sweet smile before greeting her.

A few minutes later, Scarlett Johansson left to greet other people.

"Are you okay, Cam?"

Kazir looked at Cameron Diaz and noticed that the woman's expression had changed.

"Me? I'm fine." Cameron Diaz chuckled and kissed Kazir on the cheek and leaned closer.

"Come to think of it, are you having trouble working with Scarlett Johansson? The brat is very uncooperative."

Kazir was talking to Fremont Smith. Working with Scarlett Johansson made Kazir promise never to work with underage actors again. They were very disruptive.

"No," Fremont Smith shrugged. "She's actually very reasonable and modest. In fact, she is always on time, unlike Liam Neeson and Brianna Evans, who have a 30-minute grace period before starting work."

Fremont Smith smiled bitterly. His position on the set was weaker than that of Liam Neeson and Brianna Evans. He was already grateful that the two showed him respect. Otherwise, the filming would take a long time.

"..."

'What? Scarlett Johansson is acting like a reasonable child? What is going on in the world?'

Kazir Grey was inwardly stunned, but his expression remained normal.

It was possible for a person to change, but his opinion of Scarlett Johansson was quite solid after working with her. The little girl was annoying. Kazir had no intention of working with her again as long as she kept her bratty attitude. Not even if Salvatore Barlowe begged him to.

After the conversation, the theater went dark. A few seconds passed before the screen lit up.

Movie trailers promoted by Paramount were shown before Taken 2 began.

Two movies caught Kazir's attention.

Mission: Impossible 2 was scheduled for release next year, maybe in the summer. It seemed that Paramount was putting so many resources into this movie because they were already promoting it.

The second movie that piqued his interest was What Women Want, starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt. He didn't have a close relationship with Mel Gibson, but the actor had made a strong impression on him. Especially the time when Mel Gibson warned him about Jeffrey Epstein. And for that he respects the guy.

After the movie trailers, Taken 2 started.

An animated Grey Pictures logo greeted the audience. Then came the iconic animation logo of Paramount Pictures. A mountain with stars above it.

The audience fell silent as the movie began.
