Rebirth In Hollywood

James Cameron made a six- to eight-month shooting plan for Terminator 2. As the future savior in the movie, he was indispensable in almost every scene. Ryan could only follow the crew in California. Tossing around.

Among them, there are both the Santa Monica Commercial Plaza, where John Connor and the two Terminators met, and the highway flood control drainage canal in San Fernando.

In addition, he also experienced first-hand the treatment of mentally ill patients at the psychiatric physiotherapy center at the Lakeview Cinema in Los Angeles.

Originally, Cameron's original script did not have this paragraph, but at Linda Hamilton's strong request, he and William Shell Jr revised the script, and the woman did show a surprising side.

Yes, although Linda Hamilton actually didn't look as thick as in the movie, she also built a lot of muscle. Ryan heard her talk about it, in order to film this role, she hired a former IDF midfielder. Proofreading her to start training, in the thirteen weeks of training, she trained six days a week, three hours a day, not only lost 12 pounds of fat, but also made the whole person look much stronger.

It's really not easy to be a good actor! This is the boy's only emotion.

Of course, there were quite a few troubles during the filming process, but as a minor, Ryan was the focus of the crew's protection, and most of the troubles happened to others.

For example, when shooting the chase scene of the flood control channel, there were a few Arnold's very smart gun-twisting movements, but during the shooting, there was a serious accident. When he was spinning the shotgun, his finger was hung on the trigger. , almost cut off the whole finger, so the indestructible T800 can only go to the hospital for maintenance.

Also, in this chase scene, the truck the crew prepared was a bit higher than the road bridge, which made Cameron angry.

Haven't you done a field trip? Sorry? Can you turn back time? Two hours, I only give you two hours. If you can't solve it, everyone in the props team will get out!

After hearing his angry voice, Ryan remembered that the script here was different from the previous life's movies, rolled his eyes and leaned over, Jim, why can't you change the script? For example, Robert drove a car. Hit the bridge, how about shaving off that part of the truck that's above it? That shows the ruthless side of the T1000 and adds to the punch of the shot.

Good idea. Cameron clapped his palm hard, Ryan, I should have written the script with you!

work with you? Looking at the tyrant who went to the props group, the boy pouted, unless I'm crazy!

Ryan, do you always have so many bad ideas? Robert Patrick is the opposite of his T1000, who is a very kind and laughing person in life.

Hey, Mr. T1000, you're not going to do it now, are you? The T800 is out for maintenance, you can't take advantage of the danger. The boy simply joked with him.

Speaking of which, it was a very lucky thing that Robert Patrick was able to join the crew. Cameron originally planned to find Billy Idol to play the role, and the other party agreed, but the hand of the god of fate seemed to be in control The sky related to the boy, just a few days before the start, this unlucky rock singer had a car accident. He seemed to be possessed by a T1000. He was riding a motorcycle and collided with a truck. It is estimated that he must at least lie on the bed. months.

There are many action shots in the filming,

Slips and bumps are unavoidable. Before filming, the crew also found an action coach for Ryan, but the other party only gave him two safety courses. In his words to Cameron, Ryan is very flexible. , just like an ape, the action in the movie is not difficult for him at all, I think the only thing he has to learn is how to protect himself during the shooting.

Jim, I have been exercising for at least an hour a day since I was five years old. After returning to Los Angeles from London, Nicole and I have professional fitness trainers, so you don't have to worry about it.

Ryan only told half of the truth. Although his flexible skills have a lot to do with long-term unremitting training, his previous life experience is more important. Hungry and being bullied, jumping up and down, stealing chickens and dogs, and fighting in the streets are just trivial things.

Besides, he's not acting in an action kung fu movie, so he can handle it with his skills.

Although James Cameron has pointed out the talent of burning money, he is not as crazy as he was later, and when it is time to save, he will never waste it.

In order to save the cost of hiring extras, many of the roles were cameo by people from various departments in the crew. For example, he played the role of John Connor's adoptive father, but the image was really terrible.

Jim, any child, as long as he has an adoptive father like you, will definitely become a rebellious boy. Ryan deliberately provoked a thorn, Look at it, Mr. Director, you have killed the entire crew to accompany you. Thirteen times, you should pay for overtime out of your own pocket.

Come on, Ryan, you're just not satisfied with me being your adoptive father. Cameron waved his hand and sat back in the director's chair.

When shooting the shot of the T1000 and T800 in the Santa Moka Commercial Plaza, an even more amazing thing happened. A Japanese friend of Cameron took a special flight from Tokyo to Los Angeles without asking for any payment. The only thing is to make a cameo in the film.

He was the guy John Connor shot and killed in the hallway by the T1000 when he first encountered the T800.

In late December, when the location shooting in California was about to be completed, a large number of reporters and paparazzi gathered around the crew again.

James Cameron has a pretty good habit. His crew will always start silently. The same is true for Terminator 2, but with the exposure of the investment amount, it has caused a heated discussion in the media. However, after a period of siege and blocking, and no exclusive news could be found, the surroundings of the crew gradually quieted down.

Although there will be two or three kittens from time to time, in the past two months, the crew has been fairly peaceful and has not been harassed too much. Of course, this is also related to Anne Hurd's release of some The shooting situation is related.

The number of reporters who came this time is too large, and the chaos has seriously affected the filming of the crew, which made James Cameron very angry. situation.

Ryan! Where's Ryan?

It's like resting in the trailer, someone replied.

Go and call him out. Cameron gasped.

With the deepening of filming, Ryan's grasp of the role has become more and more in place, and the filming has become a lot easier. Even the script of Terminator 2 has been thrown aside by him. Except for watching it before shooting, it is usually not very good. After reading it, I am now leaning on the high-back chair, drawing the setting draft of True Lies with colored pencils.

What? Jim is looking for me? I don't remember my camera in the morning. Seeing the assistant rushing over, the boy had to put away the sketches and go to the shooting venue.

Just as soon as he got out of the trailer, he heard a chaotic sound, like a wet market in the early morning, no, it should be a hundred thousand big green flies flapping their wings at the same time.

He was already very familiar with this kind of voice, who else would it be except reporters and paparazzi.

What's the matter? There are so many reporters. Ryan muttered as he walked to the set.

Ryan Jenkins, you're so embarrassed to ask me what's going on! The boy felt inexplicable when he saw Cameron, who was a little fiery, What happened? Jim, who dares to make you so angry? Shouldn't it be? Linda?

Those reporters and paparazzi are all here for you!

Looking for me? What are you looking for? Ryan scratched his head, saying that his participation in Terminator 2 had long been stabbed by the media, and even if they wanted to hype, the topic would have passed away long ago, and now he came to interview himself doing what?

You ask me, and I will ask you.

In Cameron's view, this boy is really smart. Except for the first few days, the performance in the filming later makes people unable to pick out any faults, but when he is angry, he can always make people angry.

All right! He was a little dissatisfied. Those reporters came to his studio to ask about the news of another movie, and everyone would be angry, right?

Ryan, haven't you read the newspaper recently? The assistant assigned to him by the crew came over at this moment.

No, I run with the crew all day, either filming, writing or painting, and I don't have the time to read the newspapers. Besides, I don't want to abuse my eyes either. Those tabloids are almost turning me into a monster.

Just today, the North American box office statistics for Home Alone four weeks after its release, do you know how many?

Hey, hurry up, don't sell it, okay? Ryan gradually understood.

Over 150 million dollars!

One hundred and fifty million, that's not a lot. The boy scratched his head. He had experienced so many blockbusters in his previous life, so naturally he wouldn't think this number was anything special.

All the people around rolled their eyes, and they had the urge to pull him out and beat him up. Finally, an assistant director couldn't help it and stood up and said, Ryan, I think you know very well that this movie is accompanied by publicity. It's only $18 million in investment, and it's only been released for four weeks now, and many film critics are very optimistic about this film, thinking that it can be compared with The Sixth Sense at the box office.

Little devil, if nothing else, you have taken the top two spots in the North American box office charts this year. Cameron sighed. Although the other party is not in the same profession as him, he has a feeling that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. If he understand Chinese.

That's what was planned, right? The boy shrugged. The reason he chose these two films as his beginnings was not because of their powerful influence.

While an impressive childhood image isn't necessarily a good thing for all child stars, for Ryan, there are a hundred ways he can easily transform after the age of sixteen.
