Chapter 97
Chapter 97
Scarlett Johansson had a good performance this past few days. Even if she didn't have any explosive acting that would attract the audience, at least her work was efficient and made the work of the film crew easier.
As a result, Kazir's opinion of her improved a bit.
'Scarlett is still a brat, an immature brat. I should not take her seriously. '
"Director Grey, good morning."
"Oh, Eva, you're here."
Kazir was checking the storyboard when Eva Green greeted her. She had a scene today, about the time Bryan Mills infiltrated a sex den and found a drugged woman with his daughter's belonging(jacket).
Because of this connection, Bryan Mills decided to save the woman and ask her where she got the jacket.
"I hope I can do my role perfectly. I'm kinda nervous." The woman smiled.
"I believe you will do your job properly." Kazir replied, sketching at his storyboard.
Eva Green only got the role three days ago, and she didn't have any preparation. Luckily, her part was a minute-long scene at best. She didn't have to do much acting."Thank you for giving me this chance, director Grey. I will try my best."
"It's a small role. As long as you act well, it's all right. Besides, I promise Roman Polanski that I will help you. If you are interested in Hollywood, you can contact CAA. I will try to help you as much as I can."
"T- Thank you very much, Director Grey!"
Hearing this, Eva Green smiled and was grateful. She knew how hard it was to build a solid foundation in Hollywood. She was there for a year, but her search for roles was fruitless. She didn't get a role, so she decided to return to France and cultivate herself in the local entertainment industry.
Hearing Kazir's approval was the best thing she has heard this year.
'It is enough that I gave her a small role. I already kept my promise to Roman Polanski. I know Eva Green's future, so there's nothing wrong with helping her. Perhaps I will make another changes in the timeline...'
After greeting Kazir Grey, Eva Green went into the shared trailer to get makeup. She was a woman who had been captured by human traffickers and suffered a terrible fate. Obviously, her appearance had to fit the role.
"Who's that?"
Suddenly, Scarlett Johansson appeared next to Kazir and asked about Eva Green, who entered the shared trailer.
"Huh? Are you talking about Eva Green? She is just an acquaintance."
"Is that so? But the way she looks at you is a little different, ack--! Hey, why did you karate chop me? I almost bit my tongue." She hissed.
"That's because you don't know what you're saying. Eva Green is just an actress that was recommended to me by a Director here in France. I'm sure she's just grateful."
"Really? Then that is good to hear. Kazir, you have to understand that having a relationship with an underage person is a crime, even if Eva is 17."
"I know." Kazir just shrugged. There was no reason to argue.
"Heh, considering your relationship with that Reese, I bet you have a thing for young women."
She grinned and crossed her arms. Clearly making fun of him.
"You want me to karate chop your head again?"
"N- No." She shook her head hard.
"Scarlett, I met Reese Witherspoon when she was 20 and I was 25. I don't think that's a crime. Besides, Reese and I are just friends."
"Friends? Heh, that's too stupid to believe. Anyway, make sure you know what you're doing."
"Okay, okay. Just go back to your tutor and study."
Kazir left to talk to Renner Hector about their shooting plan. There was no reason to talk to an immature girl. If not for his friendship with Salvatore Barlowe, Kazir might have fire this little brat.
"Tch! People always treat me like a kid! I don't want to study! I don't want to go back to school, my classmates are all a bunch of immature brats!"

The filming was a bit complicated. In the movie, after Bryan Mills found a clue to find her daughter, the sextraffickers showed up and chased him. There was a car chase that lasted a few minutes in the movie. Also, the traffickers' cars were destroyed in the chase. That means the production crew had to buy cars just to destroy them.
They could make miniature cars, but it was time-consuming and the result might not be acceptable.
Luckily, Kazir and Harold attended the party and found someone to lead them to a junkyard that recycled old cars.
Producer Harold was in charge of choosing the cars, since he had a knack for props. With his wit after cultivating his face to be thick, Harold negotiated 7 working cars for over 100 thousand dollars. That was very cheap. The performance of the cars was a bit low, but they were enough for the movie.
Kazir could just edit the scenes to make it look like the cars were moving fast. It was possible through fast editing. A film editing technique that refers to several consecutive shots of short duration, about 3 seconds or less. It could make the sequence impactful and jaw-dropping.
But first, Kazir had to shoot the interior scene. The scene where Bryan Mills infiltrates the sex den.
"We'll probably have to shoot in this place for two or three days."
Kazir muttered and began shooting.
Throughout the shoot, Scarlett Johansson kept eyeing Eva Green, who was trying to strike up a conversation with Kazir.
"That woman, she's probably trying to do something."
To make sure nothing happened, little Scarlett Johansson decided to watch over Eva Green.
