Chapter 159:

OP Pictures, Hollywood.

Currently, in the office of Micheal Williams, the current CEO of OP Pictures, a middle-aged bald man was sitting on the chair opposite Micheal as he sipped on his tea and listened to Micheal’s report.

“It’s funny how Will Evans rose to the top in such a short time.”

Micheal said in a cunning and sarcastic voice. Obviously, he didn’t seem to be very happy about Will’s rise.

The bald man, Richard Persons, was one of the major shareholders of OP Pictures, and ultimately, one of the bosses above Micheal Williams.

Micheal had been ranting about Will’s current meteoric rise to the top ever since Richard came here as if he was trying to suggest something.

“He became too big too soon, to the point that it’s become a problem now. Insider news’ are already telling that some of the Hollywood bigshots have already started planning out what to do with Will.”

This time, Micheal gave an even clearer signal, but yet again, Richard ignored all this as if he didn’t even hear a thing.

“I heard many of the big shots also want to work with him, including the big six. Is that true?”

Richard asked something else entirely. Micheal, although displeased, answered his query.

“Yes, they do want to work with him. Even OP Pictures has talked about a deal with him for which they have received a confirmation already. But that doesn’t mean that nobody is scared of his talent and his current upward climb in Hollywood. Some people are already thinking of dealing with him and cutting down his wings to bring him down. So that he doesn’t grow a lot in such a short time. They know that if he grew too much, then they could only do so-so about it later on. So it’s better to take action earlier.”

Again, Richard ignored everything from the latter part as he asked.

“Which project has OP Pictures signed with him? What’s the name and what is it about?”

“We received confirmation yesterday that the official title will be [Friends], and it’s going to be written by Will Evans himself. He calls it a sitcom or something.”

Micheal replied, clearly unenthusiastic about the project and more interested in talking about Will’s rise and downfall.

A sitcom means a television series that involves a continuing cast of characters in a succession of comedic circumstances

“First a gangster and now a conman, I am not really getting morally good roles, you know?”

Will laughed hearing that as he tried to put some sense into this kid.

“It’s not just a conman, it’s a stylish conman. The audience won’t think anything bad about you, they would even laugh at times. The movie will go into production soon, so you should take your time to familiarise yourself with the script.”

Leo happily nodded his head as soon as he heard it was a stylish role. After all, teenagers could sell their souls to the devil to look cool.

Robert had also gotten roles in two original movies. One being a rom-com and the other being a drama about the relationship between a father and a son.

“Oh one more thing, I have another role that I think will suit you a lot.”

Will said as Leo gave him a questioning look.

“Well, it’s the role of Spiderman.”

“Spiderman?”

“Yep!”

Will confirmed as he told Leo about how Spiderman was a character from Marvel comics and that he thought that Leo would be perfect for the role. In Will’s previous life, it was a known fact that Leo was offered the role of Spiderman but he rejected it.

“Uh, well. I am not really sure.”

Leo said, somewhat nervous.

“Well, it’s not something like I don’t want to play in a movie offered by you. But it’s a superhero movie and it’s sure to have a whole franchise rather than just one movie. As a viewer, I like watching many parts of different movies, but as an actor, I want to end the journey of a character in one part, and not go back to it again, which will surely happen in a franchise.”

Will didn’t comment anything on that as it was a decision based on Leo’s artistic side. Will was sure Leo would play the role if he insisted but it would be difficult to get him to play all three Spiderman movies, not to mention after his popularity rises.

“It’s fine. It was just an idea, you don’t have to play it if you don’t want to.”

Will said and Leo smiled. To Will, keeping the current Leo happy was very important, so as to maintain an extremely good relationship with him in the future.
