Highly recommended novels: Hell Cinema, Snow Eagle Lord, One Thought of the Eternal Dragon King, Legend of the Ancient God King, Peak of Martial Arts, Five Elements, Heavenly Mysterious Realm Gate, Choosing Heaven, Eternal Night King, Inverse Scale Lord, although I don’t particularly like the character of Draco Malfoy, after all, he is a Villain But Tom Felton still cherishes the opportunity.

During this period, with the help of his parents, he read "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" several times to understand the psychology of Draco Malfoy.

Even occasionally, he would dream that he was transformed into Draco Malfoy and was attending school in an old castle that looked like Hogwarts.

Although he couldn't remember the content of the dream several times after waking up, his understanding of Malfoy's psychology had deepened a lot.

"From a certain perspective, is it possible to think that Malfoy is jealous of Harry Potter?"

Once, when he went to attend an acting training class held regularly by the crew for young actors like them, Tom specifically consulted the instructor Alan Rickman to see if his understanding was correct.

Then he was praised.

By the way, it is said that Mr. Alan Rickman will also play a role in the movie.

In fact, according to Mr. Arsenal, the bearded assistant director in charge of casting, all the teachers who came to give these young actors acting lessons would play roles in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

But he didn't tell anyone specifically who played whom.

"Isn't it fun for you to guess it yourself? Young people should be curious!"

When he said this, a group of young actors began to speculate.

Tom Felton is certainly no exception.

In fact, because of family connections, he knew the roles played by several people, but the rest could only be guessed.

Unlike the public and very noisy casting of children, the cast of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" adheres to a low-key principle when casting adult characters.

Although it cannot be said to be a blockade of information, they have basically not disclosed the specific candidates for those important roles.

"These mysterious guys!"

Although he sneered at this kind of behavior in his heart, Tom unknowingly had some fun studying in a strange school...

**********

However, as the saying goes, one person's happiness is often based on the pain of others.

Although Charlotte was not in pain, it was indeed becoming increasingly difficult for him and Charlize to support the dream Hogwarts alone.

Tired but not tired, after all, the flow of time in dreams is different from reality. After they end the dream, they still have a long time to sleep and rest.

The main trouble is that if he and Charlize play too many characters, they'll end up being the same.

Even if they both have good acting skills, they can't achieve a thousand faces in the true sense.

But in this way, there will be mistakes in the performance of some roles.

In order to reduce this kind of mistakes, Charlotte decided to bring in another person to help.

It was the Jodie Foster that Charlize had talked to him about before.

To this end, he even flew back to the United States to try to convince the actress, who may have been left with a psychological shadow due to the previous ghost incident.

did not expect

"OK!"

As soon as he stated his request, Jodie Foster immediately agreed.

"..."

This made all the persuasive tricks Charlotte had prepared useless.

But Jodie Foster asked curiously,

"So, what do I do to enter the "Hogwarts in the dream" you mentioned? Sleep with you and Charlize?"

"..."

"I mean in terms of time!"

Seeing Charlotte's demented expression,

The actress quickly added,

"To enter the same dream, at least the sleeping time must be the same, right?"

"There is no need for complete unification. After all, there is a time difference between Britain and the United States."

Charlotte coughed;

"We just need to spend a small amount of time sleeping."

"That should be a lot easier."

Judy nodded,

"If I really can't make it at night due to jet lag, I can still take a nap during the day. Anyway, I haven't taken on any new dramas recently, and I have relatively free time. How can I not participate in such an interesting thing!?"

"……All right."

Since the other party is willing, Charlotte won't say anything.

He casually made a pendant for Jodie Foster to guide her into the dream world when needed, and then planned to leave.

But I don’t want to be stopped by Jodie Foster again

"Charlotte, I have a new project here. Are you interested?"

"new project!?"

"Have you ever heard of Stephen Sommers? He is a director. He made "Deep Chill", which was released some time ago, although it failed at the box office."

"This person..."

Charlotte nodded.

Charlotte, who came from a later generation, still knew the name Stephen Sommers.

However, it is not because of "Deep Chill" as Jodie Foster said, but because of another more well-known movie series "The Mummy"!

Although "The Mummy" starring Tom Cruise, which was released before Charlotte Time Travel, was extremely bad, it was a typical failure with all the highlights in the trailer.

But this does not mean that the old version of the "Mummy" series was a bad movie.

In fact, in Hollywood, among the movies that can be remade a second or even a third time, none of the original ones were bad.

Otherwise, no one would be too bored to make remakes.

In Charlotte's original time and space, "The Mummy" released in 1999 was a smash hit, and its director and screenwriter was none other than Stephen Sommers.

And now, Jodie Foster mentioned Stephen Sommers' name, and for what reason?

"In order to make a comeback after the box office failure of "Frost," Stephen Sommers turned to a dusty script about an Egyptian mummy in Universal Pictures' script library."

Judy explained,

“He wanted to adapt it and make an Egyptian adventure movie with fantasy elements.”

This should be "The Mummy"!

Charlotte nodded.

He still didn't quite understand what this matter had to do with him.

"Did Sommers come to your production company to attract investment?"

Charlotte asked,

"Or is it that he wants to ask you to play the heroine?"

"neither!"

Judy shook her head,

"Although my box office appeal has improved a lot because of the "Hell Detective" I filmed with you before, but you know, as a double movie queen, I am actually quite expensive, so..."

The movie queen shrugged,

"Actually, Stephen Sommers didn't do anything because his plan was rejected by Universal!"

"Rejected by Universal!?"

"Yes."

Jodie Foster explained,

"The old scripts he found were, after all, in Universal's script library. If they didn't go through Universal, 80% of them would eventually be accused of infringement. What's more, Universal Pictures is also the company that is best at producing ghost movies in Hollywood, Stephen Sommer Since Si wanted to make a movie about mummies, it was natural for him to seek cooperation from Universal."

"Then why did Universal reject this plan?"

"This has something to do with you!"

Jodie Foster wrinkled her nose and smiled slyly. 2k novel reading network
