After talking with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Kazir Grey and Caron Diaz returned to their seats.
Director Fremont Smith was sitting next to Kazir. His expression was a mixture of nervousness and excitent. He was greeting so many people. His agent, Salvatore Barlowe, told him to make a connection as early as possible.
Fremont understood the importance of having relationship with the important people in the industry.
In fact, the main reason he got his job was because of his connection with director Kazir Grey. And for that he was grateful. He knew that it would be impossible for soone like him to get this mantle easily after working in the industry for almost four years.
So of his colleagues who started the sa year as him were even jealous and hated him. There was a ti when he tried to invite them to work for him and be a part of his newly ford crew, but so of them declined his offer.
They didn't feel comfortable working with soone who was on the sa level as they were a year ago. On top of that, Fremont Smith was just a new director and this would be his first project, no one had confidence in him.
It was a miracle that he beca the director of Taken 2. He thought that the cinematographer Renner Hector would direct this movie, but Fremont got it.
When Kazir offered him the director's chair, Fremont knew this was his chance to take things seriously. So he imdiately agreed.
Fremont felt bad that Renner Hector didn't beco the director. He knew that Renner Hector was good at cara angles and making beautiful shots.
But instead, Renner Hector encouraged him. He told him to have fun instead of worrying.
Well, Fremont did have fun, but the pressure was still strong and he struggled to keep his mind calm.
"Fremont? Fremont?"
"Huh?"
Fremont Smith snapped back to reality when he realized that soone was calling his na.
He turned to his side and found his ntor, Director Grey, calling him.
"Fremont, are you okay? I was calling your na, but you're not responding."
"I'm sorry Director, I guess I'm just too stressed right now."
"That's normal. I'm also nervous before the premiere. But I started to love the pressure and stress of filmmaking. Once you get used to it, you will look for it every ti." Kazir laughed.
The stress before the release of his films was indeed suffocating. But once the box office results were announced, that stress and nervousness turned into euphoria. An addictive pleasure Kazir didn't want to let go of.
"Thank you, director... Although I'm still nervous."
"That's good. It ans you love what you're doing. If you're not nervous, it ans you don't love your creation."
Fremont Smith nodded, learning sothing else from his ntor.
As they talked, a person approached them and said hello.
"Hello, Director Grey and Director Smith."
Scarlett Johansson appeared. Unlike two years ago, the little girl was now taller and looked much more mature.
After greeting the two directors, the teenager glanced at Caron Diaz and gave her a sweet smile before greeting her.
A few minutes later, Scarlett Johansson left to greet other people.
"Are you okay, Cam?"
Kazir looked at Caron Diaz and noticed that the woman's expression had changed.
"? I'm fine." Caron Diaz chuckled and kissed Kazir on the cheek and leaned closer.
"Co to think of it, are you having trouble working with Scarlett Johansson? The brat is very uncooperative."
Kazir was talking to Fremont Smith. Working with Scarlett Johansson made Kazir promise never to work with underage actors again. They were very disruptive.
"No," Fremont Smith shrugged. "She's actually very reasonable and modest. In fact, she is always on ti, unlike Liam Neeson and Brianna Evans, who have a 30-minute grace period before starting work."
Fremont Smith smiled bitterly. His position on the set was weaker than that of Liam Neeson and Brianna Evans. He was already grateful that the two showed him respect. Otherwise, the filming would take a long ti.
"..."
'What? Scarlett Johansson is acting like a reasonable child? What is going on in the world?'
Kazir Grey was inwardly stunned, but his expression remained normal.
It was possible for a person to change, but his opinion of Scarlett Johansson was quite solid after working with her. The little girl was annoying. Kazir had no intention of working with her again as long as she kept her bratty attitude. Not even if Salvatore Barlowe begged him to.
After the conversation, the theater went dark. A few seconds passed before the screen lit up.
Movie trailers promoted by Paramount were shown before Taken 2 began.
Two movies caught Kazir's attention.
Mission: Impossible 2 was scheduled for release next year, maybe in the sumr. It seed that Paramount was putting so many resources into this movie because they were already promoting it.
The second movie that piqued his interest was What Won Want, starring l Gibson and Helen Hunt. He didn't have a close relationship with l Gibson, but the actor had made a strong impression on him. Especially the ti when l Gibson warned him about Jeffrey Epstein. And for that he respects the guy.
After the movie trailers, Taken 2 started.
An animated Grey Pictures logo greeted the audience. Then ca the iconic animation logo of Paramount Pictures. A mountain with stars above it.
The audience fell silent as the movie began.
