Behind The Spotlight Chapter 155
Axel stepped out of his limousine wearing his expensive suit from Diore, a suit tailored so precisely to his body because the designer crafted it with him in mind. After the success of The Frightening Movie, the fashion brand realized Axel's potential and expanded his sponsorship to include their luxury tuxedos designed by a well-known designer.
The flashing of cameras didn't bother him anymore. This wasn't his first time attending a red carpet, although the intensity of the event still reminded him of his early days. He smiled at the fans who attended the premiere and waved his hands, making sure even the fans in the back felt acknowledged, something he always tried to do.
The standard red carpet procedure was monotonous, and Axel had already memorized every detail, from the number of steps before pausing for photos to the expected angle of his jawline and mewing. Nothing significant really happened. Even the reporter hired by Metro Gold Mayer didn't bother him much, they simply asked standard promotional questions.
Metro Gold Mayer might have lost its status as one of the Big Six, but this roaring lion was still alive and dangerous, its claws sharp enough to reclaim prestige. They spent quite a lot on the premiere. When the executives watched the early screening, they couldn't help but feel excited and pumped with testosterone. The movie was pure adrenaline, packed with action sequences that thrilled any man, and even a few female executives admitted the choreography left them breathless.
They had been promoting the movie for a month and successfully caught the audience's attention. The old fans who had read the novels were eager to see the film adaptation, while new fans were drawn in by the action-packed trailer Metro Gold Mayer aired across TV networks.
Being a bestselling book in the 80s, The Born Identity had a high chance of performing well at the box office, especially since nostalgia was a powerful selling point. Metro Gold Mayer found it worth purchasing and promoting. However, they had no idea how influential the movie would eventually become, or how much Axel's fame would rise from this moment.
Axel entered the theater and searched for his son. He smiled when he found John and Collin sitting together.
"Dad!"
