Chapter 189: Chapter 187 | In bed?

“A NEW PERSPECTIVE FOR THE MOVIES” —IAN RENNER TALKS!

The title of the article took almost half of America by surprise as it was from a magazine that had earned popularity for years. Also, the fact that Ian Renner’s name was on the front page—the whispers and the chatters explained a lot. 

The interview Marilyn and Rose had taken while Ian was still in France had taken quite the turn with his come back to Los Angeles. 

With Ian’s announcement of what he was doing in France taking over the news and the media, people were excited and concerned at the same time. 

Something that almost everyone was so sure of was that something new could be expected from what he said. 

“This article… Damn, Rae… Ian sure knows how to talk to the media,” Niko said while still his eyes touching line by line of paper. 

“He is good with his words indeed. I saw there were comments about how people already love the idea of something new even without knowing what it is. This vacation helped him in PR as well it seems,” Raelynn said and took a sip from her morning coffee.

It was still the day when Ian came back from France. Ian still was inside Mason’s office talking about something both Raelynn and Niko weren’t aware of, and at the same time, the best friends were busy talking among themselves about Ian and how things have been doing. 

“Yeah, people love him more it seems. It was almost as if the last two movies hadn’t taken a bad turn.”

“Hey, they weren’t bad. Just as people said, not at the level we all expected. So, I have been wanting to ask, but with all the shooting and editing I couldn’t find time to ask, how was your date with Keith?” Raelynn asked with a smirk. 

Niko already had a grin when she mentioned his name, and it became better when he walked around to sit in a proper chair from where he was—on her desk. 

“He is… Just… Wow!”

“In bed?”

“No, idiot. Not in just bed! As you know, Keith is an influencer, who also is trying hard to get into Hollywood someday. But as influencers have so many more benefits than we could ever have, he is planning to be in his industry for some more years. What’s wow is how passionate he is when he was talking about his dreams. The way he listened to me, and yes, in bed-”

“Alright. I think I heard too much more than I should. So, you really like him, huh?” Raelynn asked back.

“Yes! I’m waiting for him to call again. I want you and Ian to meet him as well. Maybe when things get a bit more official, you know what I mean. I don’t have many friends, so Ian and you’re the best!-” 

Niko immediately remembered something when he mentioned Ian twice. “Wait! Rae! How are the media campaigns going on?!”

“Now you remembered why you’re here-” Raelynn chuckled while Niko rolled his eyes. “The movie is going to be released by the end of this week, so I want to make sure that everything is perfect for now. That is also why I needed help from you-”

[In the same office floor, Mason Striver’s Office room]

“...The Fast and the Furious? Wow… I think this would turn so many heads in our direction. The name itself made hair raise in my hand. Can you tell a little bit more about the movie..?” Mason asked as he flipped pages from the script in his hand. 

“Yeah, so… As I mentioned it’s crime adventure, and thriller. I’d go for adventure. But yes, talking about the story…. The main character’s name is Dominic, Dom for short. And in this journey, Dominic Toretto enjoys the adrenaline of street car racing and his fans treat him like a rock star. After a catchy encounter with the ruthless Johnny Tran, Dom decides to take Brian, a newcomer to street racing, under his wing. Dom's sister Mia sees something she likes in Brian, too. Trouble is, neither of them realizes he's an undercover cop, and Dominic and his rival Johnny Tran are both the prime suspects in a case involving dirty money and big-rig hijacking. In short, you’ll know when you read the script.”

“So, this is basically related to street racing, isn’t it?” Mason asked with the corners of his lip curling up. 

“Yes. And if you didn’t realize, the news and stuff which went across are related. This movie would be something that’d shake Hollywood, trust me, uncle, I’m prepared to give my best for every movie I make from now. Maybe the best I never gave for previous movies.”

The determination that was layered in his voice made Mason agree to him soon. 

The knock on the glass door made both the men turn to question who is outside it.

“Oh! I almost forgot to tell you! I have a surprise!” Mason said and stood up making Ian follow him right along. 

“What is it?” the director asked while curiosity filled his lungs. 

“Keanu is here…” 

Mason said and walked around the desk to open the door. In the little time Ian had got to think, he was nervous, excited, and truly surprised. 

By the way, how he reacted in the video conference the other day, Mason knew that something was up with him and he knew how the young man wanted to meet Keanu. This is also why he had asked Keanu to pay a visit right on the day Ian would be back. 

Ian who turned to face the office door smiled when the door opened and revealed a forty-year-old Keanu Reeves having a pleasant smile plastered on his face as well. 

“It’s so good to see you again, Mr. Striver, thank you for having me. And, Mr. Renner! Finally!” Keanu said and walked front to extend his hand which Ian accepted politely. 

“It’s good to see you in person too. Please have a seat, Uncle, you too!” 

Everyone settled quickly afterward while Ian’s mind calculated the person with the person who he knew from his precious world. 

There were no big differences. The face looked similar, but this Keanu had a comparatively oval face than the Keanu from the other world. Also, maybe for his position or maybe simply for the man he is, Keanu Reeves who sat in front of Ian sounded and looked much more humble than the person Ian had only seen on television in his previous world. 

“Thank you so much, Mr. Renner. What you’ve created with the script is truly something to admire, isn’t it? I mean, I’ve been writing scripts for so long that I had forgotten how to act. But then, I came across this agent, and he wanted me to participate in the audition,” Keanu said with the breathtaking smile he had and Ian said nothing but nodded all the way through. 

“Somehow, here I’m. With one of the best upcoming directors of the era.”

“Mr. Reeves, what I must say is… Your acting skills! You are gifted if you hadn’t heard it before. You have good talent with facial expressions and giving out what exactly the script needs. And as I can see, you love acting, don’t you?” Ian asked back, while he pondered on his own words slowly and steadily. 

On the inside, he was excited to meet Keanu, and now he didn’t want to freak the actor out, so he had to calm himself down and act like the professional he is. 

“Of course. It all comes back to loving the acting process. And not to mention, the director, Raelynn, is really good. She helped me a lot through the process, and I’ve to say she’s one intelligent, smart woman.”

Keanu smiled after his statement. That was when Ian remembered that he had to meet Raelynn and Niko as well. 

The thought of meeting Raelynn brought another fresh sense of feelings for him. He didn’t want to address them or deny them. But his thought process was disturbed by mason.

“Ian, can you tell me why you were so interested in Keanu? I’ve been wondering about it for a minute, and trust me, I’m so old that I can’t wrap my finger around something you haven’t mentioned.”

Ian frowned at his choice of words. He cleared his throat and looked at Keanu, “Well, I’ve known a lot of actors and actresses who are at the top of the industry, and I’ve known the rest by name or face. By the skills Keanu portrayed in the movie, I hadn’t expected a rookie to have such emotions or talent. It caught me off guard,” he lied through white teeth. 

“Thanks,” Keanu said and shrugged. “I guess I should be going now, oh and here’s the script, have a read,” 

Ian then noticed the pile of papers he had brought with him. It was a script—he brought for Mason. 

“Okay, I’ll give it a read. Thank you for coming and stopping by,” Mason said and dismissed Keanu.
