Chapter 1985 1987 [Charlize Theron]
"Fake God" is another masterpiece of Jim Carrey. It tells the story of the protagonist, who is a reporter, who is dissatisfied with work, love, and life, and often complains that God is unfair. God was annoyed by his nagging and decided to let him replace his work.
The hero was enjoying it at first, but only later did he realize how much trouble he had caused...
The theme of this movie is a bit similar to "Groundhog Day", "Life Remote Control" and so on. Through some fantastic events, the protagonist understands that instead of complaining, it is better to start from himself and change his attitude towards life , Live every day seriously.
Although the theme is outdated, it is really interesting to become God, so after the movie was released that year, it earned nearly 500 million US dollars at the box office.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" is Johnny Depp's masterpiece. Originally, Disney's purpose of shooting this movie was to advertise the pirate ship attractions added to Disneyland, so it was prepared to lose money.
After all, Hollywood movies that involve water have always had a bad box office. "Future Water World" and the pirate-themed "Cutthroat Island" are not far behind, and they lost a lot.
But unexpectedly, this movie turned out to be a big success, so as many as five films were shot in a row, not to mention making billions of dollars, and it also gave Disney a stable IP.
For such a lucrative project, Xiang Nan will naturally not make it cheap for Disney. He is going to ask Johnny Depp to make this movie. At that time, add this attraction to Universal Studios.
Add Hogwarts in "Harry Potter", Dinosaur World in "Jurassic Park"... Universal Studios will be more lively than Disneyland.
…
Xiangnan then invited Charlize Theron to meet.
"Congratulations, Charlize, "Agent Belle" has a good reputation and a high box office. You have finally become famous this time." He smiled and congratulated Charlize Theron.
"I would also like to thank you, without your support, I would not be where I am today." Charlize Theron said gratefully.
A script as good as "Secret Agent Belle" is actually very rare. Because Hollywood has always been dominated by male stars, almost all of the 20 million clubs are men, and there are almost no women.
Moreover, in the film, most of the women are men's vassals, and most of them are vases. There are very few characters who really don't act as male vassals and don't hold back the hero.
It is precisely because of this that "Beauty Secret Service" in which women play the leading roles alone is so rare. And such a resource fell on her, which made her a great success and became famous in one fell swoop. She naturally wanted to thank Xiang Nan for his success.
"You're welcome, it's because you have enough strength to perform this role so perfectly that this movie is so successful." Xiang Nan laughed.
"Thank you for your compliment, I think I haven't done well enough." Charlize said modestly.
"There is no need to be humble, I just want you to act in a movie recently." Xiang Nan laughed, and then told Charlize Theron the story of "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun", "I hope you will play the heroine."
Charlize Theron nodded after listening to the story.
"Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun" is a commercial film, and with Xiang Nan in charge, the box office must not be bad. And although she is now famous with "Secret Agent Belle", she still needs good works to maintain her popularity.
After all, there are really too many beautiful and good acting actresses in Hollywood. So this "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun" is very suitable for her.

Eminem is one of the most outstanding rappers in America today. Rap was originally a genre of music unique to African Americans. It has been flourishing since it appeared in the late 1970s.
Because hip-hop is rebellious, entertaining, and casual, it is more trendy and exciting than other music types, so it is very popular among young people.
However, because most hip-hop singers are African-American singers, it is difficult to spread in white society.
Like rock and roll, it was already popular in the African-American community in the early 1950s, but it wasn't until after Elvis Presley came out that rock and roll became widely popular in the white community.
The birth of Eminem just filled this gap, and won the love of countless white fans for a while, becoming the most popular hip-hop singer.
"Eight Mile" is such a movie written by someone based on Eminem's personal experience after he became famous. Many plots in the film have actually happened to him, so Eminem's acting is particularly immersive. Even though he is a newcomer in the entertainment industry, he still contributed a lot of acting skills.
"Eight Mile" truly shows the hip-hop world, the living conditions of those underground singers, real, rough and powerful. Coupled with the joining of popular superstars, the box office performance is still good.
The final North American box office was 110 million US dollars, and the global box office was 230 million US dollars. For a rookie, to have such a result is really remarkable.
…
In March, it is also the Oscars season.
Mel Gibson's "Gladiator", Tom Hanks' "Cast Away", Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" are all favorites to win the award.
Xiang Nan also walked on the red carpet with Charlize Theron.
In the past month, he has been with Charlize every day, preparing for the filming of "The Last Day".
As the contact deepened, the relationship between the two became closer and closer, and the final result was naturally a hit it off. Therefore, walking on the red carpet with Xiang Nan at this moment, Charlize Theron's mood was particularly high.
"Charles, you and Charlize walked the red carpet together, are you going to work together again?" the host asked with a smile.
"Yes, we are preparing a movie recently. It can be said that it is a genre I have never acted in. I hope fans will like it." Xiang Nan said.
"Oh?! A type that has never been played before? Can you reveal a little more?" The host asked excitedly.
"Well, let me tell you a little more, I might be the villain in this movie." Xiang Nan laughed.
"The villain?!" The host became even more excited.
Xiang Nan has played positive roles since his debut, "Die Hard", "Lethal Weapon", "Speed", "Mission: Impossible"... I am afraid it is the first time to play a villain, which is naturally novel and interesting. It will also be a major selling point of "Fast and Furious".
…
Then the awards ceremony was officially held.
Xiang Nan had no other awards shortlisted, so he focused on "Gladiator", "Cast Away" and "Lord of the Rings", which movie could win the best picture award.
"Actually, your "Gladiator" and "The Rest of a Deserted Island" are fully qualified to win the Best Screenplay Award." Charlize Theron felt aggrieved for him.
"It doesn't matter, I am already very happy to win the Best Picture Award." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.
