However, Hanks also knew that Cruise was so cautious, and the other party had always been on the idol route. To put it bluntly, he was just relying on his face to make a living. If he suddenly appeared on the screen as a woman, it would indeed be very likely to cause some fans to be unhappy.

Eric did not immediately answer Tom Cruise's request, but asked back: "Cruise, if I remember correctly, you should be twenty-seven years old now, right?"

Tom Cruise nodded, showing off in his tone: "I started making movies at the age of sixteen, and I was younger than you at that time. Until now, it's almost ten years."

As a teenager who came out of a single-parent family at the bottom, without any background, and with his diligence and hard work, he made his own world in Hollywood in ten years, and Cruise has the capital to show off.

"Then, Cruise, every actor needs to transform, especially those who follow the idol route. Although Hollywood actors have a longer shelf life than actresses, they don't need to expand their acting careers after they are over thirty years old and develop into other types of films. But one day this situation will come, so I think this opportunity can be considered an attempt for you."

Cruise retorted: "Eric, there are many kinds of attempts, and you don't have to play a woman. Actually, I'm already considering the issue you just mentioned, and my agent has also recommended some types of films to me."

Eric shook his head without any haste and said, "This is like there has been no change. Cruise, many of the movies you have starred in before are literary, but the Oscars have never given a nomination. The reason is that although those movies are excellent, your screen image has not changed any major changes. From this perspective, you have been in the industry for ten years and are still empty-handed at the Oscars. Don't you want to be recognized by the Academy? I think if you play this role well and the small sacrifice of cross-dressing, the Academy will at least give you a nomination for the best actor."

Andy Lau in his previous life was the first time he won the title of Emperor of the Hong Kong Film Awards at the Hong Kong Film Awards with the movie "Dark War", and fulfilled his wish for many years. In addition to Andy Lau's own strength, the bold cross-dressing that appeared for the first time in the movie also played an important role.

Oscars are a hurdle that every Hollywood member cannot avoid. As long as you are a member of Hollywood, you cannot be indifferent to Oscars. Especially for actors, in order to win the recognition of Oscars, Tuolulu is the lightest, and self-destruction is common. Whether it is a mental illness or a murderer, as long as you can win the award, just act in one word! Charlize Theron, a beautiful woman in the previous life, gained weight and exposed her eyebrows, and did everything she could. Poor Li even made a good show of "You-fat, I-fat!" for Oscars, which shattered the perfect Titanic impression in the hearts of fans.

Sure enough, after Eric finished speaking, Cruise finally stopped refusing directly, but fell into a brief silence. How could he not know where his problem lies? He just didn't want to admit it and didn't dare to change it.

The little people who climbed up from the bottom are more afraid of failure than those actors with good backgrounds. No one wants to go back to the kind of life in the past. This fear of falling into the dust again almost made Cruise forget that with his current status in Hollywood, he is already qualified to bear failure.

But the temptation of Oscars is huge. Cruise has been in the Hollywood circle for ten years. If he cannot even understand the meaning of Oscars in Hollywood, then he will not be able to achieve what he has today.

Eric keenly seized Cruise's shakenness and took the opportunity to fuel the fire: "Cruise, Andy, is a character who is more tragic than the Count of Monte Cristo. He has only a few weeks left to live. In order to avenge his father, he played a 72-hour thrilling game with Sean. If he is not careful, he may lose his life. In this case, the audience will focus more on Andy's final fate. The cross-dressing I arranged was to promote the development of the story, not to deliberately lose the actor's image in vulgar comedy to amuse the audience. This is just a very serious performance. I think as long as you are really your fans, you will definitely understand it."

After a full two minutes of silence, perhaps Eric's words played a role, or perhaps Oscar's temptation defeated the concerns in his heart. Finally, Cruise nodded slightly.

With this matter resolved, the atmosphere in the conference room became much more relaxed.

Cruise and Hanks both began to express their views on some details in the script. Hanks felt that Sean's personality in the script was a bit vague, and why, like the female Interpol supervisor who had a good impression of him, he would not pick up girls or go to nightclubs, even a workaholic, need to start a family and start a career, right? And why, as an all-round elite figure in the police industry, was transferred to a small police station.

Because time is tight, Eric only took one day to drive out the script of "Dark War". Basically, they were based on the story templates in their memory and did not modify much. Eric also considered some bugs proposed by Cruise and Hanks, but had not had time to modify them.

Although Cruise always uses a arrogant tone like a guide to his juniors, Hanks likes to seize the details and find out the truth and make Eric silent. Eric still patiently discusses with the two actors. After all, with these two actors who have participated in many Hollywood hot-selling movies participating in the revision, Eric not only saves a lot of energy, but also ensures that the script is more adaptable to the rhythm of Hollywood movies.

"Hey, Joni, you can't read it wrong, it's almost four hours passed, why haven't Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks come out yet?"

After squatting outside the Firefly office building for nearly four hours, the paparazzi Kent of the Hollywood Information News finally couldn't help but come to the convenience store and asked in a questioning tone. Although paparazzi can stay at the door of a certain celebrity for a day and night for news, it is all with clear goals.

Now, there is no sign of the two superstars at all, and they really can't think of any reason Cruise and Hanks would have been at Fireflies for a whole morning, so it is inevitable that they have doubts.

"No, no, Mr. Journalist, I promise I did not admit my mistake. Look at the two business cars over there, the one on the left is Tom Cruise's, and the one on the right is Tom Hanks's. It's noon soon, and they will definitely come out for lunch."

"Okay," Kent fiddled with the camera on his chest and said, "I hope you read it right, so everyone will be happy. Otherwise, the $700 will still be returned."

Joni subconsciously covered her pockets and sweared again.

"Then I'll wait a little longer. Is there any soda? Give me a bottle?"

"Yes," Joni nodded quickly. Just as he was about to get something for Kent, he suddenly saw the other three paparazzi outside the window suddenly stood up and rushed towards the door of the Firefly office building.

"Mr. Journalist, have you come out? Look at your companions?"
