Hollywood What If

[I decided not to add a summary for Pirates Of The Caribbean, since I didn't change anything. If you're interested, you can watch the movie instead. I watched the franchise up to Strangers Tide, but after that I'm lost. By the way, my favorite is At World's End. The third one is probably the best.]

Hollywood What If Chapter 351

"Ah yes, my hat kept falling off because of the strong wind. The pirate hat was originally made of leather, but the crew decided to make it of rubber so it wouldn't sink into the sea. We lost a lot of hats the first time we shot the movie in Haiti." Johnny laughed.

Unlike leather hats, rubber hats float on the surface of the ocean. The crew could easily retrieve the rubber hats, which saved them money.

The crew lost nearly ten leather hats at sea...

"Oh, that's interesting news. I wasn't expecting that."

The reporter said to Johnny Depp. The actor nodded and went on.

"Actually, we also experienced a typhoon in the Bahamas. The crew lost a lot of equipment. I can say that this project suffered, although I'm amazed at how director Grey pulled it off. I realized that he's talented for a reason."

"What did you learn from working with Director Grey?"

"Hm, I guess being professional. Don't get me wrong, I'm already a professional and take my work seriously, but Director Grey's dedication is amazing."

Johnny Depp didn't elaborate, but he witnessed Kazir maintaining his stoic expression while dozens of women in bikinis flirted with him. At that time, Kazir had to go to a grocery store to buy Gatorade for his headaches from lack of sleep. He was then ambushed by women in bikinis.

Johnny Depp was a little far away, but he witnessed the incident. If he were in Kazir's shoes, he might bring two or three of these women back to his hotel room and have some fun.

Sometimes he wondered if Kazir was gay or just another kind of man. What Johnny didn't know was that Kazir was afraid of women...

The interview ended and it was time for Johnny Depp to enter the theater.

There were many reasons why Johnny Depp accepted the role of Jack Sparrow. First was the salary. Being famous since the early 90s, Johnny Depp could easily get $10 million for this project. Surprisingly, Grey Pictures offered him a salary equal to his status.

Since money was not a problem, Johnny focused his mind on the script.

He realized that Johnny Depp was different from the usual roles he played. Johnny usually had roles of serious or depressed type characters. Like Edward Scissorhands in Edward Scissorhands and Ichabod Crane in Sleepy Hallows.

Most actors have roles they love to play.

Tom Cruise always has the role of a cool, handsome guy in most of his movies. In his movies, Tom Cruise loves to run for some reason.

The Rock's role was usually a big, buff, strong guy. He also loves jungle movies. He also didn't like losing.

Ryan Reynolds loves to perform as Ryan Reynolds in his movies.

When Johnny Depp read the script, he found Jack Sparrow to be a quirky but calculating guy. He was dumb, but he was also a great pirate... Actually, he didn't like the role that much. He knew that pirate movies have a curse and never make money at the box office.

Carolco Pictures died because of a pirate movie called Cutthroat Island.

He was more interested in the money and working with Kazir Grey. However, after playing the role, Johnny began to realize that Jack Sparrow was an amazing character. He liked him very much.

Johnny found his seat, next to Orlando Bloom, who had a complicated look on his face.

"Are you okay, Orlando?" Johnny asked curiously.

"Me? Ah, yeah, I'm fine."

Orlando smiled slightly before returning to his own world. Orlando had already spoken to Kazir about Troy and his opinion was positive.

The director said that as long as the production was good, this movie had the ability to make money at the box office. Orlando felt great hearing that, so he decided to study his role.

His face slowly frowned as he realized that his role in the movie was that of a cowardly wimp!

Prince Paris of Troy.

A cowardly prince who seduced the queen of Sparta and fled back to Troy. Basically started a war.

Instead of keeping his honor as a warrior, the prince kneeled before his elder brother to save him from death. Further aggravating the war.

As a new actor, Orlando felt that this role could destroy his image as a handsome but brave actor.

His roles in Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean were better.

Orlando practiced archery for his role as Legolas in Lord of the Rings.

In Pirates Of The Caribbean, Orlando took sword-fighting lessons every week to understand how swordsmen operate. Of course, Johnny Depp did the same.

'That's probably one of the reasons I got the offer, because I already know how to use swords. '

In the end, Orlando Bloom decided to accept the role in the face of the money. Although sometimes he couldn't help but frown. He was sure that he would never like Prince Paris, as a character and as a person.

A few minutes later, the theater went dark and the premiere began with the famous 20th Century Fox logo and iconic sound, followed by the Grey Pictures logo.

...

The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

The audience clapped as Kazir made his entrance. Jay Leno and Kazir shook hands before Kazir sat down.

As usual, promoting the movie would never be wrong. The real reason he went on the show was to promote the movie.

The talk show started mildly, talking about things and making funny jokes.

"So Kazir, I want to know your opinion about these pictures... Huh, can you explain? Was it really big?"
