Chatty Hollywood

When Depp took the "Sleepy Hollow" script from Gwyneth, he was even a little angry for a moment.

——Nori is like this, but you guys are still...

Looking at Winona lying on the hospital bed, he even wanted to throw the script out the window for a moment, but after listening to Gwyneth's explanation from Jodie Foster——

"Maybe this is a Hollywood blessing!"

Depp could only smile bitterly.

When he heard that Winona had been in a car accident today, his whole heart twitched.

He drove directly to the hospital and broke into the ward, completely ignoring the excited paparazzi reporters outside.

He could imagine what reporters would write—

"Winona was in a car accident, Depp was devastated.";

"Johnny barges into the ward, can his old lover rekindle their relationship?";

…

In the three years with Winona, he has fully realized that there is no lower limit for paparazzi.

What's more, now that Winona was in a car accident and she just came over without any care, those guys' pens and cameras should be almost exploding with excitement!

However, Depp can no longer care about this.

He is willing to be randomly arranged by reporters, as long as Winona can wake up...

"Johnny, would you like to read this script to Noni?"

Gwyneth looked at Depp sadly and felt bad in her heart. She suddenly remembered what Jodie Foster had said to her before, and said,

"Don't you say that talking to unconscious people will help revive them? It just so happened that Nori had just accepted this script before her accident, and she said she wanted to cooperate with you..."

——Cooperate with me?

Only then did Depp realize that this was the script that Charlotte had told him about inviting him and Winona to be the leading actors and actresses.

He looked at the cover of the script and had mixed feelings in his heart.

After a long time, he reached Winona's bedside, holding Winona's cold fingers with one hand, and opened the script with the other and started reading.

“In New York at the end of the 18th century, the police still used ancient methods of handling cases to torture criminals to extract confessions.

The young policeman Ichabu Kallan believed in scientific methods of handling cases, so he was excluded by his peers in the city and was sent to a small town called Sleepy Hollow to handle a serial murder case.

The legend of the "Headless Horseman" has been circulating in Sleepy Hollow.

It is said that he is a bloodthirsty and militant Black Forest mercenary. After his head was cut off by the enemy, his lonely soul has been wandering in Sleepy Hollow. On dark and windy nights, he would ride a fast horse, take a With a big sword, he cut off the heads of passers-by.

Within two months, three people in the town had been brutally murdered.

…”

It's obviously a script for a fantasy horror story, but for some reason, Depp's mood gradually calmed down as he read it.

He felt that he was the Ichabod Callan who entered Sleepy Hollow in ignorance, and Winona was the beautiful girl Katrina who was blindfolded and playing the witch game with others.

Katrina accidentally caught him and realized that he was not her friend, but the hospitable girl still left a blessing kiss on his forehead...

"Nori..."

In a daze, Depp touched his forehead.

He felt that the screenwriter's writing was very contagious. It was obviously just a script for a commercial movie, but he just read the introduction and the beginning, but he felt like he was actually there.

——This may be a really good story that suits me and Noni. It’s a pity that I can’t star in it.

As he continued to read, Depp pondered in his mind.

Yes, after seeing Winona's current situation, he was not in the mood to work for a while.

He was going to turn down all his recent film appointments and focus on taking care of this girl lying in the hospital bed - the film dates he had turned down naturally included "Sleepy Hollow".

However, when he read the immersive words in the script, he felt a little pity.

In particular, seeing the various words and patterns the screenwriter annotated in the corners of the script,

There were even some specially designed magic array patterns, and he felt that he might have missed a good story...

***********

"This is indeed a good story!"

Gwyneth, who was huddled in a corner of the ward, thought to herself.

When Depp began reading the script for Winona, Gwyneth didn't leave. On the contrary, driven by curiosity, she silently sat down in a corner of the ward...

"Why hasn't such a good script been sent to me proactively?"

Listening to Depp's rapt chanting, Gwyneth once again felt a twinge of jealousy in her heart.

——Just listening to the introduction, she could tell, having read a lot of literary works, that this script should be adapted from "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving.

"The adaptation is not small, but the adaptation is more in line with modern people's tastes."

Gwyneth tasted it silently. Looking at Winona lying motionless on the hospital bed, a thought suddenly came to her mind——

"Noni can't play the role now anyway, should I..."

**********

"You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery,

People watching the scenery are watching you upstairs..."

Gwyneth was thinking about Winona and the script of "Sleepy Hollow" there, but she didn't know that outside the ward, someone was also thinking about her and Winona.

——And, of course, Depp.

"It's really as I expected!"

Charlotte sighed.

"how's it going?"

Jodie Foster on the side asked somewhat unclearly.

"Do you want to see it?"

Charlotte tilted her head and pointed in the direction of Winona's ward.

"I can use magic to make you see."

"Forget it!"

Unlike the curious Charlize, after experiencing the painted skin incident, Jodie Foster's attitude towards ghosts was to stay away from them.

If you really can’t avoid it, try to leave it to professionals like Charlotte, just like now——

"Just tell me what the situation is!"

"That's fine!"

Charlotte shrugged.

Although he was far away, what he wanted to see was not the specific furnishings and layout of the ward, but just the special aura of the three people.

Magic can help him do this——

In his eyes, as Depp began to recite the script, a black atmosphere gradually enveloped the ward.

The black air is thick and thin, constantly flowing between Depp and the unconscious Winona, like a non-stop steam train loop.

"So that's what happened!"

Charlotte finally understood why he had not found any problems with Depp several times before -

This is a ghost that only really appears when Depp and Winona are together!

Moreover, the less they hide their inner feelings, the more obvious the signs of ghosts become.

Now, Winona is unconscious, it's hard to say whether to hide her heart or not, and Depp——

Charlotte felt that with this guy's current almost violent emotional state, if Winona woke up now, he might be able to kneel down and propose.

"That's why that strange ghost showed up!"

Charlotte thought to herself, recalling the scene when Winona deliberately avoided Depp during the filming of "Happy Death Day"——

"At that time, the reason why the signs were not obvious was because both of them were covering up..."

In this way, it is indeed getting more and more suitable.

However, there is still one most critical issue that Charlotte has not figured out——

What kind of ghost is this! ?

PS1: "Overlooking the Landscape" is the first theatrical version of "Sky Realm". Although it is not the first one in terms of plot timeline, it is the first one in terms of screen time. The scene in which the two rituals are jumping from a high place feels really good! PS2: The reason for using such a title is to respond to the modern poem in the article. PS3: I started working today. Regardless of whether I have enough vacation or not, I wish everyone a good start!
