One Thousand Three Hundred Seventy-Four Return to Calm

"So what's next? What other awards do you hope to win?"

"...Oscar."

"I thought it would be Venice."

Surprisingly, instead of choosing the award he lacked, Renly chose the Oscar he made history, which surprised Bradley.

Renly nodded with a smile, "If there is a chance to appear in a European film, I will look forward to Venice even more, it is indeed a very special award; but now, I am still doing more in the United States, and I still set my goal on Be around. It's a little bit more practical and a little bit more real."

"But the problem is, there are always rumors that 'Gravity' is going to Venice this year," Bradley added.

Renly laughed cheerfully, "Have you been preparing this question for a long time?"

"I'm not the only one." Bradley said frankly, "In fact, before the official start of the Tony Awards ceremony, or more accurately, after the Cannes Film Festival ended, the discussion had already started. En-Pan has set a record for winning the three major European film festivals for three consecutive years, and now people are looking forward to whether you can replicate such a feat."

Especially after egot, if Renly can take advantage of the situation to climb to the top of Venice in September this year, then this will be a real move against the sky. Even the reporter who doesn't like Renly the most can't deny that such a historical moment makes the heart tremble.

During the recent period, the Venice Film Festival seems to have sensed an opportunity. They have started to promote and build momentum one after another, and have repeatedly emphasized that if there is no accident, "Gravity" will land in Venice.

Why?

The reason is very simple, if "Gravity" is confirmed to be released in Venice, then there is a huge possibility of Renly's three major European film festivals, plus the feat of egot has just been completed, all of which are writing one. Incomparable and insurmountable golden years, no one wants to miss, and no one dares to miss it.

Naturally, journalists from all over North America will flock to it. Even with the head-to-head competition from Toronto, Venice can easily prevail; even avid moviegoers cannot resist the temptation. It is conceivable that this year Venice is bound to become a global focus, not even Cannes.

The new president of the Venice Film Festival, Alberto Barbera, is doing his best to seize the opportunity. There are three fires for the new official to take office. For Alberto, great opportunities are at hand, and there is no reason to refuse to go all out.

Not only Bradley, but the whole of North America is now talking about it, and the whole of Europe is also paying attention.

As a party, Renly couldn't help laughing happily, "Although I know this is a kind of bubble, I am still honored."

After joking, Renly continued, "I don't make presets in advance, and now that Alfonso is in post-production, it's still unknown whether we can catch up with Venice; even if we can, as I just said, I think This is Alfonso's work, I'm just one piece of the puzzle, and I don't expect anything from the award."

Seeing that Bradley wanted to continue to ask questions, Renly stopped him with a look, and added, "If there is a real prize discussion, I'll stick to the answer I just gave. I'm working hard to show my love to the academy now. Can't you hear it?"

The joking tone and ridiculing words made Bradley laugh helplessly, but he didn't give up after all, and asked, "Don't you expect to win the best actor in Venice?"

"I'm not sure if Woody Allen or Daniel Day-Lewis would be happy, but if it were me, yes, I would," Renly replied, bright and lighthearted, again with a witty joking tone.

Bradley was very satisfied with this answer, so he didn't ask any further questions, and asked another question, "Judging from the answer just now,

You mean, if there is a chance in the future, you would like to appear in European films? "

"Wow, so, you're not going to miss any opportunity today, are you?" Renly said with a big smile, and it was just a little bit of talk, but Bradley actually grabbed it firmly.

Bradley spread his hands and didn't answer, imitating Renly's appearance, shrugging his shoulders gently, expressing his affirmation with a calm look. Does this count as repaying him with his own way?

Renly nodded lightly, "That's fair." Then he thought about it seriously. In fact, the words just came out of his mouth without careful consideration. Now that he has come back to his senses and thought about it carefully, he still nodded in affirmation. "Why not?"

Language and culture are not a problem, and performance is not a problem, the prerequisites are already met; what's more, European films always have characteristics that American films do not have. This is indeed a good challenge. German films, French films, Nordic films , Italian films have their own unique temperament.

"You said just now that there may be more commercial films in the future. Now, isn't it fading away? It's not even an independent film, but a European film." Bradley ruthlessly complained that Europe It is still dominated by art films, and the commercial film system is far less mature and complete than Hollywood.

"Hey, that's your question, you can't put the blame on me." Renly emphasized his position with a protesting expression, then smiled again and explained, "No, I mean, I'm open to more possibilities. It's the case with commercial films, and it's the same with European films. I'm open to different challenges."

"Even a Marvel superhero movie?" Bradley immediately jumped at the opportunity and asked the question punctually.

Renly laughed cheerfully, "Why is everyone curious about this question? I always feel that every interview someone is curious about this question, is this the work you just called 'fits my appearance'? I see Does it really look like a superhero?"

Bradley was speechless.

Honestly, Renly isn't your typical superhero look, at least it doesn't look like it. Although Marvel has now broken the stereotype of superheroes and is embracing more and more possibilities; Renly is still not that typical appearance choice.

"Because the Marvel movies are really too successful now, and you are one of the most watched actors now, everyone is looking forward to you being able to play a superhero once... Right?" Bradley was a little unsure, " It would be strange if you didn't discuss it together."

Even top actors like Tom Cruise and Will Smith have been struggling to find a chance to star in a superhero movie. Then, Renly was no exception.

After thinking about it, Bradley added, "Also, not long ago, you played a civilian hero and saved the delivery man, and this incident has been on social networking platforms until now. There's a lot of talk, and everyone thinks you're the perfect actor to be a superhero. It's a great opportunity to expand that awareness even further."

Renly chuckled, "So, you mean, I need superheroes to further expand the mass base?"

A rhetorical question, Bradley was at a loss for words again, and there was no problem when he said it. Now that Renly hit back, it suddenly became strange, and he couldn't refute, why did it feel strange?

Fortunately, Renly did not pursue it, but said relievedly, "This is not the first time I have answered relevant questions, but I hope this is the last. I officially make a statement, and I am open to all possibilities."

"So, maybe this one includes superhero movies as well?" Bradley pressed cautiously.

"Yes." Renly's answer was still crisp.

Bradley blinked, then realized that he had caught the big news, and if nothing else, this was the first time Renly had publicly and positively responded positively!

"Yeah!" Bradley clenched his fists heavily. This action made Renly's eyes flash with a smile, and he asked half-jokingly, "Are you happy because of the important news? Or is it because of the news itself? happy?"

Bradley was stunned for a moment, "...Both."

Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, "So, who do you think is the right superhero for me?"

Bradley made up his mind, only to find that he really couldn't imagine Renly in tights, it was so weird! Who's a superhero who doesn't need a straitjacket? I couldn't remember it for a while, and then Bradley realized something was wrong, "...Wait, you are the interviewee, I am the interviewer, don't change our positions, okay?"

Renly shook his head gently, "This is not an interview, but an exchange."

Bradley glanced at Renly sullenly, "It makes no difference!" Renly raised his hand in surrender, without further arguing, Bradley continued the question, "So what's next? Is life going to change? I mean, do you need to take a break to adjust? Or digest it? Or start preparing for your new album, after all, egot is still different.”

"I guess so." Renly nodded affirmatively, "but I'm trying to keep the same pace and get back to a quiet life. You know, there's so much more in our lives that we can't be in 24/7. Party status. Besides, I don't want this to be a lifetime achievement award."

"Haha." Bradley laughed cheerfully.

Renly couldn't help but smile, and continued, "I'm still eager to perform on camera and on stage, and I'm still eager to explore different ways of performing. Regarding the album, I don't have concepts or ideas for the time being, but what is certain is that first of all , I'm going to start shooting 'Crackling Drummer', it's not an easy work to do."

"There is no concept for now? Does this mean that if there is a concept, you may still release an album?" Bradley grabbed another small tail.

"Of course, why not?" Renly's answer was extraordinarily straightforward.

From music to film to theater, the conversation between Renly and Bradley continues, the meaning of the interview is slowly disappearing, and everything is returning to the routine of life.
