From Hollywood Child Actor to Genius Actor - Chapter 127
Only Ranovel

It’s already been 6 years since Ian returned to the past.
It was by no means a short period of time, but it was far from enough to forget the realizations I gained while living on the streets for a long time.
‘Let’s be thankful for good things and not be affected by worries.’
Many homeless people are truly ungrateful, so when they are lucky enough to have money, they spend it on useless things like alcohol and drugs.
Additionally, many people are consumed by worry and end up homeless, addicted to alcohol and drugs.
This was a lesson taught by teachers who could commonly be seen on the streets.
This lesson was correct. Even if it was a minor role, I did my best with a grateful heart and did not waste time worrying that the role I had worked so hard to get would be taken away right away before filming.
Thanks to this, I was able to become an Oscar-winning actor.
Returns, flashes of other people’s lives, changes in the body, etc.
It’s all luck for no reason. As I don’t know why I gave it to him, it wasn’t strange when he took it back.
Anyone else would have been worried and tried to find a reason, but Ian didn’t do that.
Did it give you special abilities? I should be thankful.
Now that my body is getting better, I can easily combine filming and studying, and thanks to the exam, I can film without worrying about major accidents happening.
But what can you do if you’re worried that you won’t get a clear answer? It is not too late to worry even after something actually happens.
The same goes for my senses becoming strangely better.
Unlike previous exams, it may have happened thanks to the participation of many people, or it may have been because I helped the two writer siblings and my senses became more sensitive.
But the important thing is not the reason, but how to deal with the changes that have already occurred.
“It was just a coincidence. What are super powers? “You’re not hoping to be flying around like Superman any time soon, are you?”
“Hahaha, you already flew in Season 1, right?”
“It was an exciting flight.”
“Would you like me to fly one more time?”
“Oh, don’t even say that. “The line producer over there is staring at you.”
As the staff members dispersed in disgust at the joke, Ian sighed lightly.
It was easy to prevent strange comments from spreading among the staff, even though they seemed to fit like a fortune teller.
The talk about supernatural powers and oriental mysteries was only half-joking anyway.
‘the problem is…’
I glanced around.
The new staff member, who moved awkwardly, looked like he might bump into someone else while moving a box, and one of the light bulbs that illuminate the sewer seemed like it might go out during filming.
Aside from this, there were a few things that were bothersome at the complex filming site.
I took a deep breath.
I pushed away the feeling. Anyway, I didn’t feel anxious like I did when I saw a flash of light.
This means that there is no need to worry about preventing everything from happening.
‘The box looks light and won’t hurt even if it bumps into it.’
You may get scolded by the person you bumped into, but newbies usually grow up getting scolded.
Thinking like an old man, I quickly sorted out things that could be dangerous. To be honest, if it ends like this, it’s just a stupid ability.
“Ian! Filming is coming soon. Please get ready.”
At the staff member’s words, Ian looked straight ahead.
Instead of the 15-story abandoned hotel where we usually filmed, this was a set, and there was a structure that looked like a long ‘ㄷ’ attached.
It was a structure built to film action scenes taking place during sewer exploration.
A blood-stained sewer was visible through one side of the opening.
“Will it work?”
I closed my eyes and vividly recreated the scenes in the script like Amelia.
I thought it would be okay, but I had to try it myself to see how it would be.
Ian walked to the filming set.
***
“Director, we are ready.”
“Okay, good job.”
The director looked at the filming set with interesting eyes.
American dramas have many coaches in one season. It’s common for the director to change every episode.
For the director who filmed this episode, it was his first time seeing Ian act.
“It’s Ian. Let’s see how good you are?”
The acting seen in the video was different from the acting seen in person on set.
A former director with whom I was close praised me to the point where my mouth was dry, and I also learned that the showrunner, who has absolute power in dramas, is an actor that is cherished.
I was excited to see what kind of acting he would show, as he made a bombshell statement saying he would focus on being an actor after reaching #1 on the Billboard.
“Then let’s start filming.”
Perfect!
Filming began in earnest with the sound of slate hitting.
-Kyaaaaaaa!
A group of zombies rushing out of a narrow sewer crashed into a barricade made of iron bars.
The wheeled barricade was pushed back with a clattering sound.
“Hold on and push on! You bastards! “Don’t be pushed away!”
The iron bars that the zombies were clutching shook as if they would tear, and the soldiers stabbed spears made of sharpened iron from behind the workers who were holding on with their bodies.
The sound of a spear breaking into flesh rang out through a gap in the iron bars.
A fierce battle ensued, and it seemed like humans were winning, but if zombies had been easy opponents, the world wouldn’t have changed like this.
-Kyaaaaaaa!
After hearing the noise, the zombies came running and threw themselves hard.
Crack!
“Holy Shit!”
There was a sound of something breaking and the barricade turned slightly like a revolving door.
A zombie stuck its face through the gap and bit the worker’s arm, causing a scream.
“…Did you shoot?!”
The commander clenched his teeth at the subordinate’s words.
If you shoot a gun in the sewer, you never know how many zombies will come running. However, it was more dangerous because the barricade was already half-open.
When you have no choice but to give instructions.
Clap.
Footsteps sounded.
“omg!”
Black eyes glowed coldly in the dim lighting installed on the wall of the sewer. The eerie eyes contained something scarier than a zombie.
For a moment, I felt a chill, but before I could even think about why the conductor was here, he hurriedly shouted.
“Run away…”
When Noah, who had humbled himself in response to the warning, took a big step forward.
Pajik!
A light bulb went out on the wall, plunging Ian into darkness.
‘Oh, it’s ruined.’
‘The atmosphere was nice.’
‘What kind of bastard installed something like that?!’
It was so good that I wondered if it would feel the same if I filmed it again. The sound of heavy footsteps rang out as not only the staff but also the director, who was concentrating on filming, swallowed their regrets.
Noah, who jumped out under the light like an animal with a crunching sound, mercilessly slit the throat of the person bitten by the zombie.
The blood sac burst, creating a long blood trail on the wall.
-Kyaaaa!
Noah grabbed the head of the incoming zombie, plunged the knife he was holding into its jaw, and pushed away the zombie that had stopped moving.
“Wake.”
A clear voice heard through the cries of zombies.
People who escaped the panic quickly pushed up the barricades and made things normal.
The battle between zombies and humans broke out again, and the director felt puzzled when Noah suddenly turned around.
‘There must be a scene where they fight together.’
Could it be that I read the script wrong?
While he was wondering whether to stop him or not, Noah stepped into a place immersed in darkness.
Faaah!
The light that had gone out for a moment came back on, and Noah’s face, calmly walking away, was captured in the camera.
The sight of blood running down his face gave me the eerie feeling of a monster.
The director, who filmed the back of Noah disappearing alone, jumped up from his seat.
“Cut! Cut cut! Noah, no. Ian! It’s crazy! I heard it came out really well. “Come quickly!”
“Was it okay?”
Unlike Noah, who was full of dangerous smells, the director tapped Ian on the shoulder as he approached with a bright smile.
“Totally! It was also nice to continue acting right when the lights went out, but it was the last time. “Did you know these lights would come back on?”
“How was I supposed to know that?”
I didn’t know. I just thought that might be the case.
Ian watched the filming scene. The staff is amazed that the picture was created by chance.
‘It’s similar to the scene I pictured in my head.’
The lights only turned on and off for a moment, but the video captured on the camera was better than the original plan.
If we had stopped for a moment in an unexpected situation, the other actors would have thought it was an NG and moved, so this scene would not have occurred.
“Are you going to save this?”
“of course! How can I not save this?! “This will also be released as a behind-the-scenes video.”
Invisible Children is a drama that airs on HMO, a paid cable channel.
As it is a paid channel, instead of advertisements between dramas, they played promotions for other dramas or behind-the-scenes videos.
On the outside, it seemed like a famous scene created by chance, so it was worth revealing in a behind-the-scenes video.
“Anyway, let’s get the cut first quickly. “Other people didn’t praise me for nothing.”
While listening to the director’s embarrassing series of compliments, Ian watched the video he had just filmed repeatedly.
I wonder how many times I will have the opportunity to use it for filming like this.
‘If you think about it, you can use it well.’
hour? When you feel like something is going to happen, just ask to film. You can control that tidiness. If you know in advance what’s going to happen, you can act it out as much as you want.
It was useful not only to pull off famous scenes like now, but also to be able to control unexpected situations during filming.
In short, it depends on what you write.
After coming to a conclusion, Ian moved to film. I can’t be happy because today’s filming is just the beginning.
It was a day when a famous scene that left a strong impression on viewers was filmed.
***
The invisible children filming continued smoothly.
Since I mainly filmed Ian, who doesn’t make NGs often, there was no reason for any problems. However, with the main character joining the group, filming became a bit jarring.
“Hmm, Leo and the other actors are eaten up by Ian’s acting.”
“Yes?”
Caitlin, the showrunner, saw the footage being filmed.
The main character and his party were seen running away to Las Vegas and being captured by Noah’s group.
-Noah, why have you changed like this?! It’s not too late even now. Back to the Noah we knew…
-shut up! What do you know? Don’t talk arbitrarily.
Ian glared at Leo in a voice that sounded like the growl of a wounded animal.
It’s not a bad scene. It’s not…
“I feel like a puppy in front of a wild beast.”
“What can I do? “Noah is this intense.”
The showrunner nodded at the director’s words and thought about the works Ian had participated in so far.
There has never been a problem with chemistry, so why did this happen now?
‘It’s a simple reason.’
If you’re the lead, like in Melted Moonlight, you just have to show off. If it’s a supporting role, you just need to minimize your presence and fit in with the main character.
But what if you are a villain who opposes the protagonist?
“Shall we act a little softer?”
“Oh, is Ian here?”
She shook her head as Ian greeted her.
“no. Then the charm you showed so far will drop. This can’t be helped. Other actors have no choice but to work hard. “Can you give me some advice if I need it?”
“all right.”
Ian scratched his head while nodding.
‘I didn’t know this problem would arise.’
After finding a child role in Invisible Children and changing my voice, I told the actors I was working with, ‘I can concentrate better on my acting when I work with you.’ All I heard was, ‘Acting with you is too much.’ It was my first time hearing something like this.
This is because it is my first time playing a role where I can freely show my presence as a supporting actor rather than a lead actor.
I don’t hate this immaturity. Rather, I’m happy.
‘Acting continues to develop even for decades.’
People who have seen him act are amazed that he is already capable of acting at a young age, but Ian himself knew it well.
There are still a lot of things that are lacking.
The problem I discovered this time is just one of them.
There are differences in all acting roles, including supporting roles, leading roles, good roles, and villain roles, and Ian, who has mainly worked as an extra for decades, still has a lot to experience.
Although he succeeded as an actor at an early age, this was the reason why he found acting attractive.
While I was organizing my thoughts, my cell phone rang. It was Ben.
“wait a minute. “Please call me.”
“Oh, take it easy.”
Ian asked for understanding and answered the phone.
I don’t know why I called.
“Ben, what’s going on? “Is Evan looking for me rather than his dad?”
-…You bad guy. Why do you keep taking other people’s sons?! Our names were called for the first time and we promised to act together for the first time.
When Ben shouted, Ian burst out laughing.
“Hahaha, so why did you call? “You probably didn’t call me to say something like that now.”
-Whoa… Hey, take a look at your article.
“Mine?”
It won’t be a big deal.
-Jasper, ‘I want to have a serious conversation with Ian. We could be good friends.’
Why didn’t an article like this come up?
-You are you. I don’t mean Jay from Quiver.
“Are you Jay?”
I’ve been so busy filming these days that I haven’t been able to log in well.
I wondered what was going on and did a search without hanging up the phone like Ben said.
-Quiver’s J Ahn, who is he?
-Bella, ‘I was defeated.’ He is truly a great person.’
-J Ahn, who predicted the incredible success of Universe. Is it a professor or a religious leader?
…I became the leader of a cult without even paying attention.
It seemed like it was a cult.
