DOS Ch-322
“You were marvelous in the show,” the old man said, pulling me into a warm, lingering hug. “This is hands down my favorite musical of the 21st century.” “Thank you, Steven,” I said sincerely once he let go. “Man, it’s been so long since we last met.” “It has,” Steven Spielberg agreed with a fond smile. “And even longer since we worked together.” “True,” I said, gesturing for him to take the seat opposite me in my far-too cramped changing room. That was the life of a…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“You look tired,” said Michael Thorpe, my lawyer, his brows knitting as he studied me across the table. The conference room was quiet except for the noise of the air conditioner. “Everything alright?” “Yeah,” I replied, brushing off his concern with a wave of my hand. “Didn’t get much sleep last night. Nothing worth worrying about. Just tell me how the contract signing went so I can be on my way.” Michael chuckled under his breath and clapped a reassuring hand on my shoulder.…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

Me: Are you considering Ryan Gosling for one of the major roles in a franchise? Tobias: We’re in talks. Kevin offered him Hawkeye first, but Ryan’s ambitious and wanted a name movie, like Captain America. I declined that request since he isn’t American. After that, he agreed to do Thor. We’d have signed him already, but he’s asking for a higher salary than what you approved. Me: And why wasn’t I told about it? You know he’s a friend of mine. Tobias: Ryan asked us not to involve you.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

u/MildlyUnhinged (OP):BLIND ITEM: A very famous A-list actor, who recently proposed to his girlfriend, who’s another A-lister, did it because the girlfriend is pregnant. I work with the girl, and the entire crew saw her puking her guts out. The actor’s team came to our workplace not long after that and threatened all the crew members not to spread any rumors. So, of course, I had to make this post. u/throwaway_echo_21: Holy moly! Is that Troy and Scarlett??!!! Now it makes so much sense why he…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Right,” I said with a slow nod. “I’m not very good with money or numbers, so I’ll have to ask my lawyer to go over it with you, or with someone else from Columbia, at a later date.” Frank Price’s smile widened, as if he had just uncovered my excuse for what it was. If I hadn’t offered that line, he would have pushed me to sign the contract immediately, and I was in no mood to create unnecessary friction. “Was that all on your end?” I asked. “Just one more thing,” he…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

The flight back home turned out to be rather anticlimactic. I had expected something noteworthy to happen, some kind of dramatic farewell or surprise, but nothing did. Julie sat beside me in first class, and we spent most of the time talking when we weren’t dozing off. The rest of the senior crew members, Randal, Nestor, and a few others, were seated in business class. My two friends, along with everyone else who wasn’t considered essential to the production, were tucked away in economy. It was a…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

January 2010, Broadway Theater, Manhattan, NYC “You’re a fucking genius!” James Cameron said enthusiastically, pulling me into a tight hug inside my dressing room. “I died laughing just now. It was so good. I’m telling all my industry friends to come watch this as soon as possible.” “Thank you, Jim,” I said with a grin once he finally let me go. “But the credit mostly goes to the writers and the director. I’m just an actor in this show.” “And you played your part…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“I don’t understand why they even have an intermission during a Broadway show,” Austin muttered impatiently, tapping his foot against the floor as they stood in line at the snack counter. The lobby was filled with chatter of other theater-goers, though unlike the movies, the crowd seemed a little more sophisticated. “If there were no intermission, we wouldn’t be here waiting for snacks. The show’s barely two hours long. Most movies are longer than that. They could easily finish it in one go if…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“You son of a bitch,” Peter said with a wide grin after placing the script of Risky Business on the table. “You really want to do everything yourself, don’t you? I thought you’d leave the behind-the-scenes work to Ash and me, but no… you wrote a script, and now you want to direct it too?” I chuckled and plucked the script back from him. “Not my fault you never managed to stick to one job long enough to master it. You tried everything and ended up doing nothing.” “I take offense to…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

“Alright, cut!” Randal called for the last time that day. “We’re done with today’s shooting. If everything goes well, tomorrow will be our last day here in Fiji.” The crew burst into applause at his announcement, and honestly, I couldn’t have been happier myself. I had had enough of this island and just wanted to go back to a life of normalcy. Beside me, Julie Anne Smith, better known by her SAG name Julianne Moore, clapped with everyone else. “I can’t wait to get back to New…- 278.0 K • Ongoing
