Entertainment: Starting as a Succubus, Taking Hollywood by Storm Chapter 218 - 215: Collaborating with Little Leo?
How could this happen?
As his phone slipped from his hand, Harvey, with a shocked expression, plopped down onto the ground.
"Hello, hello? Are you still there? Harvey, Harvey? We're in deep trouble this ti..."
Bob's voice ca through the receiver, distorted.
Harvey was too dazed to pay attention.
His mind was in turmoil, and he had a strong sense of having shot himself in the foot.
Suddenly, it seed like sothing occurred to him, and he grabbed his phone again, shouting, "Bob, was this Martin's doing? Was it Martin? Can I ask him for compensation?"
From the other end ca Bob's helpless voice. "The fire departnt and the police have all confird it—this was just a coincidence, a damn coincidence."
"Shit, shit, shit! Could this guy really be God's favorite?"
Harvey's offhand remark caused a jolt of unease in Bob's heart.
Bob hesitated before speaking, "H-Harvey, hearing you say that... I don't know why, but I'm kind of getting the chills. Maybe... maybe you shouldn't go after Martin anymore."
"I'll think about it, I'll think about it," Harvey muttered, hanging up the phone in a daze.
...
The warehouse fire unexpectedly brought so additional attention to The Bourne Identity production team, and the dia that had left quickly returned.
Of course, they weren't alone this ti—The New York Gangsters team had arrived as well.
Due to the destruction of their equipnt, The New York Gangsters had to temporarily halt production. The lead actor, Leonardo DiCaprio, took the opportunity to visit the Spider-Man set to check on Martin.
But he wasn't alone. He brought along a woman—Caron Diaz, the female lead of The New York Gangsters.
When Leonardo saw Martin walking towards him in a red and blue tight suit, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Wow, wow, wow, that outfit is stunning! Dude, don't you think it's a bit too tight?"
Whoosh!
Just as Martin was about ten ters away from Leonardo, he suddenly sprinted, leaped high into the air, and did a sorsault, flipping right over Leonardo's head. He even playfully flicked Leonardo's forehead.
"Ow!"
Leonardo held his head and crouched down.
As he landed, Martin straightened one leg, bent the other, put one hand on the ground, and extended the other forward in a spider-like gesture—striking the classic Spider-Man landing pose. In a playful Spider-Man voice, he said, "With great power cos great responsibility. It's a gift and a curse. So don't ask if it's uncomfortable, because this is the pain Spider-Man must bear. Also, don't try to show off in front of , because nobody can outdo when it cos to showing off!"
"Pfft, hahahaha..."
Caron Diaz couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Martin, you're hilarious!"
"Really? Lady, I'm honored by your approval. Now, let's get rid of this trash, then have a nice candlelit dinner!"
"Haha, sure! Martin, if Spider-Man really is this funny, I'll definitely go watch the movie. I swear!"
"Lady, trust , it's worth your movie ticket, I swear!"
"Hey, you two, could you stop flirting already? My head hurts! Damn it, Martin, you little bastard, I'm gonna kill you!"
Whoosh!
Martin bounced off the ground, did a backflip, and flipped back over Leonardo, who was still crouching, giving him a shock and making him sit down with a thud.
At this mont, Martin took off his Spider-Man mask, revealing his handso face.
He smiled at both of them, his earlier mischievousness gone, now polite as he greeted Caron Diaz and helped Leonardo back up.
"Sorry, that wasn't earlier, it was Spider-Man. He just loves to ss with people."
"Don't act innocent. That was totally you."
"No, the body is mine, but the soul inside isn't Martin yers, nor is it Peter Parker. It's Spider-Man."
Leonardo looked at Martin, astonished. "Did you really get into character? What's it like?"
Martin replied seriously, "How should I say it? It's like another soul has entered my body. He is , but also not —like a piece of my soul that's been separated and mutated!"
"Wow! That sounds like a fascinating experience. It's sothing I've always wanted to do but can't. I envy you, Martin."
Leonardo spoke seriously.
As a leading figure of the "young bucks" after Tom Cruise, Leonardo DiCaprio had always wanted to prove his acting chops.
But to be honest, his acting talent wasn't particularly outstanding.
Even in Infernal Affairs, a film highly praised in the original tiline, his performance didn't really break the mold.
Truth be told, before the age of 40, Leonardo's performances were mostly the sa—serious, furrowed brows, and clenched jaw—anyti you saw that expression, you knew he was about to "deliver an emotional performance."
"Don't envy , Leo. You've got your own path to walk. Just focus on being yourself," Martin said with a smile.
"My own path?" Leonardo furrowed his brows. "What path is that?"
"Of course, the lifeti achievent Oscar!"
"Pfft!" Caron Diaz couldn't help but laugh again.
This award was usually given to elderly actors who had never won an Oscar during their careers.
"Damn, Martin, you dare curse like that? And I even ca here to visit you."
"Aren't you here because you had nowhere else to go? The crew's on break, your girlfriend's gone, and since she left, you can't go to those places, so you thought, why not co find ?"
"How did you know!"
Leonardo looked at Martin in surprise.
"Co on, let's go find a place to sit. I know a good coffee shop nearby."
Without changing clothes, Martin just threw on a jacket and led them out of the set.
"Diaz, how's Drew doing recently?"
"She's doing well. The success of Charlie's Angels really gave her confidence. She's looking for new projects now. Oh, and call Caron or Poopoo."
"Okay, Poopoo."
"Charlie's Angels was really good," Leonardo nodded. That movie really fit his "taste."
Suddenly, he had an idea and turned to Martin seriously, saying, "When can we collaborate on sothing?"
Martin thought for a mont and nodded. "Sure, let think of a script. Do you prefer sothing comrcial or more artistic?"
"I'm good with either!" Leonardo replied. "But it'd be best if it gives room to showcase my acting skills."
"Got it, I'll make a note of that!"
Caron Diaz felt a bit envious. Nowadays, no one doubted that Martin's scripts were a guarantee of success. She also wanted to star in one of his films, but—
Her relationship with Martin wasn't quite at that level yet.
Maybe Drew could help make that happen...
