Hollywood What If Chapter 177
Kazir was a little confused by the situation. He was the kind of director who didn't like to socialize much. He would only attend a party if it was related to him or if he was invited by his friends.
He knew how important it was to make connections. As for the actors and actresses, they were the ones who approached him, not the other way around.
Of course, with his status, he understood that Jim Carrey wanted to make a connection with him.
"I heard that you recommended me to Sony-Columbia to be the protagonist of Bruce Almighty."
"Ah."
Immediately after that, Kazir realized why Jim Carrey was talking to him.
'It seems that Sony-Columbia had already contacted Jim Carrey. Although I didn't know why they told Jim Carrey that I recommended him... Maybe the lips of the people in management are hard to shut.'
Anyway, it could be a good thing. Having a relationship with a great actor like Jim Carrey was a good thing.
"You're an actor with a huge range of facial expressions, I think everyone recognized your talent."
Kazir was not lying. Jim Carrey was like a living cartoon character with the way he acted. Very entertaining.
"Thank you, director."
Jim Carrey smiled. He was a real homie.
Jim Carrey was an actor who knew how the industry worked. He realized that Hollywood was slowly dying in a pool of shit as he grew old.
On Jimmy Kimmel Live, Jim Carrey mocked Hollywood by making an Illuminati sign. Showing that many people in that industry were part of the Illuminati. The thing was, everyone acted like nothing happened after that, erasing that incident.
Of course, maybe Jim Carrey was just joking and the Illuminati was not real.
As for the truth, nobody really knows...
Anyway, for Jim Carrey to reveal the "truth" was already a brave act. Most of the actors would hide and cower or join instead.
The media was the world's greatest hypnotist, and it wouldn't be a lie if a secret organization controlled show business.
What you watched on television controlled you, in a mild or angry way.
Anyway, Jim Carrey appreciates the fact that Kazir Grey recommended him.
First of all, Bruce Almighty looks promising. After reading the script, Jim Carrey understood that the movie would be a box office hit. In addition, the script was written by Kazir Grey, a talented screenwriter in the comedy genre. This means that the movie has a higher chance of becoming a blockbuster.
Unless a bad thing happened, such as the production being shut down due or a wrong release date, Bruce Almighty would definitely be a successful movie.
Jim Carrey and Sony-Columbia communicated for days and their intention was clear. Both sides wanted to work together and make Bruce Almighty a movie. They were just negotiating other terms like salary and other demands.
Unfortunately, Jim Carrey was not the only actor Sony-Columbia was looking for.
Robin Williams, Adam Sandler, Steve Martin, Will Ferrell, and even Ben Stiller. When Paramount announced that they had bought three scripts from Kazir Grey, these actors, known in the comedy genre, expressed their intentions.
Although Jim Carrey was the first choice, he might not get the part.
Honestly, Jim Carrey could drop Bruce Almighty and find another movie to participate in, a movie that could pay him more. However, he was not sure if that movie would be better than Bruce Almighty. After all, Bruce Almighty was written by Kazir Grey.
So he decided to talk to Kazir Grey, hoping that he could talk to Paramount and increase his chances of getting the role.
"I heard that you're not going to attend the audition. That's sad because I want to show you my acting." Jim Carrey said.
"I'm going to Italy to make a movie." Kazir replied.
The auditions for Bruce Almighty would begin in May, but Kazir would not be in the U.S. at that time. Those responsible for judging the actors were the director, the producer, and the higher-ups at Sony-Columbia.
Sony-Columbia hoped that Kazir would watch the audition, but his schedule said no.
"Is that so? Then I hope we can meet again. As an actor, I want to work with someone like you."
Jim Carrey didn't push the subject of casting too much. It was good that he talked to Kazir. Besides, this matter would reach the ears of Sony-Columbia, which would give him a higher chance of getting the role.
After the two of them talked about things they could relate to, other people started to show up. Most of them were interested in Kazir Grey because of his position.

Inside the studio, five people were moving the boat to replicate the wobbling effect of a real boat on the surface of the ocean. The background was dimmed to make it look like night.
The unsteady motion made the actors inside the boat feel like they were inside a real boat floating on the ocean. In addition, the crew used a flashing light to create the effect of lightning to make it seem like the boat was in the middle of the ocean and the storm was still going on.
While this was happening, a camera was recording their facial expressions.
Jason Bourne(Matt Damon) was lying on the table when the doctor pulled a bullet out of Jason's hip.
The doctor examined the bullet and noticed something strange, the bullet had a series of numbers that led to a bank.
The doctor checked the unconscious man but he realized that the man was missing!
"What the hell have you done to me?"
Suddenly, Jason Bourne grabbed the doctor from behind and slammed him against the wall. In shock and fear, the doctor began to speak in Italian.
"What are you doing?"
Jason Bourne asked. No memory of what happened.
"Goddamn it! Where am I?"
"A boat!" The doctor replied quickly as Jason choked him.
"We pulled you out of the ocean! W-we saw you floating in the ocean and saved you!"
"You were shot. See the bullet? There's a bank number in it." The doctor gestured and showed Jason the bullet.
Jason was too weak and his last remaining strength disappeared.
