[Author's Note: After months of thinking, I decided to make this novel 3rd Person PoV instead. I realized that I had a hard time writing whenever I wrote a 1st Person PoV. I also apologize if this novel hasn't been updated for how long. I honestly don't know if readers are still interested in this novel. Comment down if you're interested in more.]&...

The party was not that super extravagant. In the first place, they would only stay in this place for at least an hour. They were just waiting to announce the nominations. There were few fruits to munch on and drinks to get tipsy.

Since The Revenant was released, the cast obviously had to promote the movie. Kazir Grey and Tom Cruise understood that they would be busy in the upcoming months. They have to promote the movie while meeting Academy members, basically begging for their votes.

The Revenant was released in North America, its premiere happened in TCL's Chinese Theater. Many celebrities attended the premiere. Movie critics were curious if Kazir had what it takes to make an art movie.

Orlando Bloom lit a cigarette as he exited the theater. He watched The Revenant and felt like the movie was good but not great. Perhaps the selling point was Hugh Glass' wrestling with a grizzly bear and Orlando admitted that it was terrifying.

Sony-Colombia knew that their hardest opponents were Warner Bros and Walt Disney. 


If the other studios were ready to bleed to acquire Grey Pictures, then Sony-Colombia was also prepared. Sony-Colombia was the weakest of the Big Six and they could turn it over once they acquired Grey Pictures.
