Chapter 378 The Instigator Nolan
“I asked someone specifically to find out, what do the crew say?”
In the car heading to the Gray Film and Television Center, Nicholson had a strange look on his face and said to Leonardo next to him: "It keeps happening, it's exciting!"
Leonardo has a deep understanding of this: "How can Martin's crew be quiet? But having said that, only making trouble can generate news."
Nicholson said: "I don't know who will go crazy first, Martin or Bell."
Leonardo disagreed: "Do you think that **** is going to be crazy?"
When the car arrived at the main entrance of Gray Film and Television Production Center, Nolan and Emma Thomas had already released the news that Nicholson was coming to visit the crew. At this moment, there were not only reporters from local media in Atlanta, but also reporters from many entertainment media distributed across the United States. .
As soon as Nicholson got out of the car, these people surrounded him.
“Jack, are you coming over to visit Martin?”
“Have you made peace with Martin?”
“Or are you planning to settle the score with Martin face to face?”,
Wearing sunglasses and putting his hands in his pockets, Nicholson looked like a big boss and said: "I came because of the invitation from Warner and DC. I think there is something wrong with the new Joker, so they asked me for help."
The reporter from "Vanity Fair" reacted very quickly: "You still think Martin Davis is not qualified for this role?"
Nicholson snorted coldly, not bothering to answer such an idiotic question.
Set security came to separate the reporters and let Nicholson and Leonardo through the door.
Someone greeted them at the door and took them to the studio where the Dark Knight crew was.
The crew had just finished filming the scene between Batman and Alfred the Butler, and Nicholson didn't see Martin's Joker.
Taking advantage of the break in filming, DC director Orlin led Nicholson and Leonardo to find director Nolan.
Nolan shook hands with the two men and said to Leonardo: "I thought about inviting you to play Two-Face, but the invitation went unanswered."
Leonardo didn't care much about the British director's thoughts and said directly: “Because superhero movies are not among my considerations.”
Nolan was not embarrassed and smiled: "It seems I took the liberty."
Nicholson looked around and asked, "Why don't you see Martin?"
"Martin was deeply involved in the play. After the performance in the morning, he went back to rest." What Nolan said later was the truth, but telling the truth may also have ulterior motives: "His performance is amazing. I have always felt that clowns live in In this crew.”
Nicholson frowned: "It's really that good."
Nolan continued to irritate people: "Martin is the clown I want."
Nicholson raised the corner of his mouth, as if he didn't believe it.
Nolan was very casual: "You will know after you see Martin's performance."
Nicholson nodded: "I will appreciate it."
Leonardo stood aside, like a crowd eating melons, looking at the two people and listening to their words.
Martin is not the only interesting person in this crew!
No wonder when I was on the phone with Martin, he said that the crew was having so much fun, and the director was just having fun, how could it not be fun?
Nolan still had to work, and after chatting for a while, he returned to the director's monitor.
Nicholson noticed that someone next to him was writing something down and asked, "What do you do?"
The screenwriter quickly said: "I am a screenwriter, responsible for recording the real behind-the-scenes of the crew."
Orlin continued: "This is a new on-set working method adopted by Director Nolan, which allows the screenwriter to faithfully record the interesting things that happened on the set and during filming, which will be beneficial to publicity later."
Nicholson was familiar with the people at DC and asked unceremoniously: "Can I take a look?"
The script was left here intentionally by Nolan. Even if Nicholson didn't ask, Orlin would have asked him to see the real record of Martin's tidbits: "No problem."
Nicholson took the script from the screenwriter and read it carefully. The most recent one was that during yesterday's filming, Martin saved the crew from a large explosion scene with a brilliant improvisation.
Looking further, Martin's performance was too realistic, which led to grievances between the characters and affected the real-life relationship between the two leading actors.
There was also Martin's crazy performance on the set, which scared Maggie Gyllenhaal, who was acting with him for the first time, so she didn't dare to speak or look at him, and made veteran British actor Michael Caine so scared that he forgot his words.
Even many actors said that when Martin was on the set and laughed like crazy, his wanton and powerful aura was as if a real clown was right in front of them.
Still expressionless, Nicholson returned the script to the screenwriter, stood here, watched another scene between Bale and Michael Caine, and then left the studio.
Came to a place where no one was around, Leonardo couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed: "This crew is so fun!"
Nicholson nodded: "Sure enough, wherever there is Martin, there are fun things to do."
Leonardo specifically reminded: "The director seems to be praising Martin, but in fact he wants to sow a wedge between you and Martin." Nicholson also saw it, and had experienced the first stage of the verbal spat with Martin, so he made some guesses. : "Maybe he wants me and Martin to continue bickering so that we can continue to make a fuss about the film's promotion."
Leonardo praised: "This director has something, and he is a perfect match for Martin."
“The screenwriter and the script must have been deliberately made for me to read.” Nicholson has been struggling in Hollywood all his life. When it comes to brains, the three Marlon Brandos combined can't compare.
He hit the nail on the head: "Martin in the script is full of good things about his outstanding acting skills, being too deep into the role, and having a terrifying character. I guess the core of the cast's promotion is Martin."
Leonardo said: "Martin is so capable of causing trouble, and there will be news whenever he does it."
In the distance, the door of a makeup trailer opened, and an actor with oil paint on his face got out.
The man's head was tilted forward, with a blood-red mouth split on his face covered in white paint, and he was swaying as he walked.
Several young actresses came towards them. The woman grinned. The people who were talking and laughing immediately fell silent and hid away as if they were encountering a perverted murderer.
It is impossible for the members of the Bastard Trio to misidentify one of their own members. Even though his appearance and temperament changed drastically, Leonardo still recognized Martin and said: "It seems to be completely different from your clown."
Nicholson looked over: "If he acts in my style, I will spray him until he doubts his life."
Watching Martin enter the studio from a distance, he greeted: "I guess there will be a play for him, let's go and see it."
The studio door was open, which meant that the crew was not currently filming. Leonardo and Nicholson went in together and found an inconspicuous corner to watch the crew filming.
This is a scene where the Joker and Batman directly confront each other.
Bell, who was born as a child star and has been playing the leading role in movies since 1987, was suppressed by Martin throughout the whole process.
Not to mention insiders like Nicholson and Leonardo, even the extras can see that the Joker played by Martin is much better than Batman.
The clown is evil, cunning, arrogant, and almost crazy. His behavior is unbelievable, but it makes people feel extremely scary.
Looking at the opposite Batman, there is only anger and violence.
Two roles, two actors, a judgement.
Nicholson can be said to be the top actor in Hollywood. It is not difficult to make a judgment. There must be differences in the roles.
The design and positioning of the character Joker in the script is better than that of Batman.
Martin's acting skills as a **** cannot be ignored either.
The director shouted stop, and Leonardo whispered: "Martin was originally a **** and a pervert, but now he is acting in his true colors."
“He is just a pervert!” Nicholson agreed: “Are you not a pervert who can kick the **** of a nearly 70-year-old man?”
The filming continued, and the two of them closed their mouths at the same time.
In order to play the role of the Joker, Nicholson read a large number of related DC comics. It was inevitable to compare virtuality and reality in his mind. He found that the character created by Martin went further than the Joker in any comic.
At the end of the day's shooting, Martin was not in a hurry to remove his makeup. He saw Nicholson and Leonardo during the break and approached them.
He hugged Leonardo: "You should come here earlier or later, there is a good show to watch."
Leonardo asked: "Look how you, a pervert, caused trouble to the crew?"
Martin punched him: "Come early and we can set off fireworks together." He looked at Nicholson: "How about this clown character? Do you choose to continue the verbal war, or to ease the relationship a little bit?"
“The director wants to provoke me to continue arguing with you. Why should I follow his lead?” Nicholson looked at Nolan in the distance: “I am not a marionette in his hands.”
Martin understood what he meant: "Then let's ease the relationship a little bit?"
Nicholson said: "I won't be as sharp as before. Let's wait until next year for our real reconciliation."
Leonardo shook his head: "It sounds like you two are having an affair."
Not far away, Nolan, who was packing his belongings, watched the trio of **** talking and discussing in the corner, focusing especially on Martin and Nicholson.
The screenwriter, whose sense of smell has become increasingly acute and who has gradually developed a super consciousness, rushed to the nearby area early and prepared.
He held the notebook in one hand and the pen in the other, waiting for the director's summons at any time.
Nolan was surprised that Martin and Nicholson didn't quarrel? This was not part of his plan.
Could it be that the dispute between the two is just due to their roles and there is no big personal problem between them?
Nicholson came to the set today and watched Martin's performance and character filming. Did he approve of the role of the clown?
Although it is unexpected, this small problem will not trouble director Nolan, who is good at creating real highlights.
He waved, and the screenwriter immediately ran over: "Director?"
"Write it down first and use it as a draft for now." Nolan's inspiration burst out: "Nicholson accepted the invitation from Warner and DC and came to visit the crew. After seeing Martin's character with his own eyes, he was impressed by his extremely superb performance and thought that this It's a shocking character, and the conflict with Martin has been alleviated.”
