Chatty Hollywood

If a trilogy of movies takes four months to shoot for each part, then the shooting time for the trilogy to be shot together will definitely not be one year.

In fact, it would normally only take eight months to complete the filming. If it's faster, it might even take only half a year.

——Generally, even if you only shoot one movie, if you go slower, it may take this much time.

Therefore, in Depp's view, Jenny really does not need to worry about this issue.

Of course, he also understood that the girl in front of him might be worried about the salary issue.

After all, unlike Depp, who is already considered successful and whose salary is close to tens of millions, Jenny is a pure newcomer.

If the trilogy is shot separately, she can also use the success of the first part to significantly increase her salary for the second and third parts.

But for continuous filming, based on Jenny's current salary level for newcomers, even if she is given the salary of three movies in one go, the amount will not be much more.

——This also explains why the continuous filming of the trilogy can significantly reduce the actors' salaries.

Of course, actors can also ask the producers to reward them with additional pay based on subsequent box office revenue, using a stepped pay scale.

In fact, Depp's agent told Depp that this was how he planned to get Depp a higher salary.

However, even if this works, the profit Depp can get will be much less than if three movies are shot separately and each one is successful.

At the very least, there is little hope for the box office share and the DVD sales share that has recently emerged to replace videotapes.

But with a salary of 20 million or something, it’s not difficult——

As long as "Pirates of the Caribbean" can be as successful as Charlotte's previous movies, Depp will definitely have no problem joining Hollywood's $20 million club with the salary ladder.

And, conversely, the continuous filming of the trilogy is not completely without benefits for the actors——

In addition to saving time and energy, the risk taken will also be significantly reduced.

——After all, if the trilogy is shot separately, the actors must ensure that they are always on the rise or at least stable for four to five years or even longer, in order to have the ability to negotiate with the producers.

Once the popularity declines due to other movies or unexpected events during the period, the producers will definitely lower their salaries without hesitation.

This does not include the possibility that the movie will fail at the box office and subsequent sequel plans will be cancelled.

Of course, in the view of Depp, who is already convinced by Charlotte, the possibility of Charlotte's movie failing does not exist.

But this does not mean that he himself will not have times when his horse is too high and his stirrup is short——

Apart from anything else, if he could continue to maintain the high popularity he brought when he played Ichabod Karan in the years after "Sleepy Hollow", then his current salary for a single film would not be close to a thousand dollars. Thousand-dollar level——

After "Sleepy Hollow", Depp married Winona and reached the peak of his life. Due to several unfavorable film selections, the films he shot were lukewarm. Although they were not fatal, his net worth still declined to a certain extent.

——It was this experience that made Depp feel that it is not a bad thing to take a little less money but reduce risks and ensure success.

At least, Depp, who has not experienced the single-series superstar experience of Captain Jack Sparrow in another time and space, has a relatively peaceful mentality, and is not so confused that he was defrauded of money by various scammers, feels that this treatment is good.

After all, normally shooting a trilogy of movies one by one means the film studio has high investment, low risk, and relatively little profit. Actors, on the other hand, have high returns and high risks;

If it is changed to a trilogy of continuous shooting, the whole situation is reversed - the investment of the film studio becomes lower, the risk becomes higher, and the income increases. For actors, the benefits are reduced and the risks are also reduced;

——Just like investment, high risk and high return, low risk and low return, that’s all.

What Depp is more concerned about now is that he and Winona have been together for several years, but they still have no children.

——The two even secretly went to the doctor for a check-up, but the test results showed nothing wrong.

However, Winona's stomach remained silent.

"The director's daughter is already over half a year old!"

Depp muttered, half envious and half distressed.

——Because of this, his and Winona's human-making activities have been a lot more frequent recently. Even before setting off last night, the two of them worked hard until they were exhausted...

After all, it's okay to be in Los Angeles. Rosarito is a location after all, and it's not good for Winona to follow the past.

——Not very convenient either.

The two of them can only "seize the day and night"...

Anyway, the result is that Depp is a little unmotivated on the road.

He chatted a few more words with Jenny beside him, and then fell asleep...

*********

"...Has my charm declined to this level!?"

Looking at Johnny Depp who fell asleep while chatting with her, Jenny was also a little helpless.

——Although this boss often looked like he couldn't wake up on the set, Jenny always thought that was his style and it was also to fit the role of Captain Jack.

It was the first time for Jenny to fall asleep while chatting with herself like this.

This makes the young girl doubt her own femininity.

Fortunately, Ruifan behind her came to her rescue——

"Stop chatting with this guy. He worked too hard with his wife last night!"

——As Depp’s former bad friend, River, whose pseudonym is Phoenix Retton, will naturally not cover up for him.

And Jenny's face turned slightly red when she heard Ruifan's explanation.

——Thinking of how Depp’s wife Winona Ryder would pull her away from time to time when the crew was filming in Los Angeles, and the young girl finally understood it belatedly.

"They are such a loving couple!"

Jenny sighed, suddenly feeling a little envious in her heart,

"So, Depp always looks like he has dark circles under his eyes on the set. It's not because he's still trying to figure out the character and hasn't taken off his makeup, but..."

"That's it!"

Ruifan smiled evilly and nodded.

"..."

Faced with this kind of topic, under normal circumstances, Jenny, who is actually quite courageous, can still follow it.

But who told her to play a conservative girl who wears a chastity ring on the set of "Pirates of the Caribbean"?

Although at present, this chastity ring seems a bit redundant, but you have already worn it. If you take it off now, wouldn't it be obvious to others that you were acting?

Now that such a character has been determined, Jenny can only go to the dark side.

*********

However, Jenny didn't know that several veterans in the crew had already discovered her problem.

It's just that everyone is watching the show with a relaxed attitude of watching the little girl playing pranks.

The same goes for Ruifan——

"Speaking of which, Jenny, do you know who the other person on the crew who often has dark circles under his eyes is?"

"Mr. Director!?"

Jenny was stunned, and then understood what Ruifan meant,

"You mean...but I see that he is very energetic every day!"

"That's because he's a monster!"

Ruifan deliberately spoke ill of his boss, and then——

His head fell off. (https:)
