My Life in Hollywood C12 First Shoot, First Snafu

Marcus went outside, and they followed. Outside sat a sleek convertible with the top down. Behind the wheel was a chubby white guy in his twenties dressed like he thought he was a rapper—oversized white tee, thick gold chain, baseball cap tilted sideways, and a cocky smirk plastered across his face.

Beside him sat a younger guy who looked similar—clearly related.

Arya might not have recognized the wannabe rapper, but she immediately recognized the one beside ...

My Life in Hollywood C11 Introduction

Marcus spent the rest of his time at the studio, and by 6 PM, he and his dad headed home. It had been a solid day. He'd assembled the cast for his project, completed the quests, and bought Basic Directing Instincts.

He had everything he needed now. All that was left was to actually start filming. He was curious to see how Basic Directing Instincts would kick in once he got behind the camera.

Right now, Marcus and Nathan sat at the dining table with way more food than...

My Life in Hollywood C10 Cast

Marcus was confident as hell he'd make a film that would earn more than his "dad." After all, the movie he was making had been a massive hit in his previous life. Especially with all the inside info from the Questclopedia.

On top of that, he was genuinely grateful that actors were actually willing to work on his project—and a huge part of that was thanks to Nathan. He really owed the old guy. If he'd been searching for cast on his own, it would've taken forever.

An...

Tycoon Actor C516

Hollywood was witnessing history. Two actors stood on that stage, facing a sea of standing colleagues, directors, and peers. The weight of the moment settled over them—this wasn't just an award, it was something that would be remembered for generations.

Lucas and Rami caught each other's eyes. No words needed. They both understood—we just did something impossible.

Then the presenters pulled them in. Allison hugged Lucas first, leaning in close. "I'm so h...

Lord of Entertainment C420 Jurassic Fever

(3rd Person POV)

By mid-February 1277, Jurassic Park had wrapped principal photography and moved smoothly into editing. The cast felt overwhelming relief.

Working with the Tyrannosaurus creatures had been genuinely terrifying. Unlike the intelligent, conversational dragons from Lord of the Rings, these beasts only roared and threatened. No reasoning, no personality—just pure predatory presence.

Before parting ways, the cast gathered for a final group p...

Lord of Entertainment C419 Area 67

(3rd Person POV)

Industry analysts predicted home entertainment would eventually surpass theatrical releases in profitability. The major studios—particularly Titan Pictures—had recognized this shift and begun adapting their strategies accordingly.

They couldn't compete with Hellfire in theaters. Every Arthur Pendragon film seemed guaranteed to dominate the box office, crushing competition through sheer quality and cultural impact. So they'd quietly begun pivoting...

My Life in Hollywood C9 Pleasant Surprise

Marcus entered the house carrying boxes of filmmaking equipment, which immediately caught his dad's attention in the living room.

"That's quite a haul you got there. Is that everything you need for the movie?" Nathan asked, eyeing the tripod and camera in his son's hands.

"Yeah, pretty much. With this equipment, I can start filming once I find my cast." Marcus nodded, clearly pleased with his purchases.

Nathan noticed his son had worked hard for this—a...

My Life in Hollywood C8 Preparation

The stacks of money on the table transformed the atmosphere entirely. Life suddenly felt colorful and cheerful.

Marcus couldn't hold himself back—he grabbed a stack and felt the bills with his fingers. "Oh, so this is what a hundred grand looks like."

Nathan quickly snatched it back, as if afraid something might happen to the money. "Be careful with Benjamin." He looked down at the $100 bill in his hand. "Benjamin's going to solve a lot of my problems—paying cast...

My Life in Hollywood C7 A Deal

At first, Nathan wanted to hold his ground and not give his son any "share" from the potentially large divorce compensation—but in the end, he had to agree. His son had promised him something important.

"If your stupid movie idea doesn't work out, you'll get a part-time job and stop relying on me for allowance. We clear on that?" Nathan wanted confirmation.

Marcus sighed inwardly. He'd had to promise he'd apply for entry-level jobs and stop relying on his dad for m...

Tycoon Actor C515

A month after returning to Los Angeles, Oscar season was in full swing. Elvis had earned multiple nominations, including Best Actor in a Leading Role for Lucas Knight. Online, fans were already declaring victory.

"Lucas is winning this, no question. That Elvis performance was perfect from start to finish."

"He didn't just play Elvis—he became Elvis. The acting, the singing, everything."

"Honestly, I'd watch Lucas p...

My Life in Hollywood C6 Favor

Marcus was already thrilled to receive a "Major Quest," and now he'd even unlocked something called a "Milestone Quest." The discovery made his mood soar even higher.

"Nice..." he murmured, studying the panels. "So if my feature film earns a certain amount, I get points? And the higher it earns, the bigger the reward?"

Even though he hadn't decided which feature film to make yet, those potential rewards made his pulse quicken. He remembered he'd used the Quest Search...

My Life in Hollywood C5 Studio Visit & Opportunity

After a quick breakfast and some preparation, Marcus followed Nathan to the parking lot. The car waiting for them was a budget sedan—probably the same model used by police departments or taxi companies. Marcus settled into the back seat while Nathan started the engine and pulled out of the lot.

Nathan struck up conversation while driving. "It's been a while since we've had some father-son time..." He paused, glancing at his son through the rearview mirror. "You comfortable back...

Lord of Entertainment C418 The Union Before the Storm

(3rd Person POV)

Firfel's emotions collided violently within her chest. She wanted to say yes—desperately wanted to—but something held her back. Doubts screamed through her mind with painful clarity.

You're not from the same world. You're a mortal woman. He's a deity who'll outlive generations.

The truth was undeniable. Elves lived longer than the other three races, yes—perhaps three hundred years if fortunate. But Arthur? He would exist f...

Lord of Entertainment C417 Proposal

(3rd Person POV)

Kaiser's excitement about the death games was palpable. He'd already begun arranging operations, even settling on a name: Money Game. Four hundred fifty-six players competing for 45.6 million dollars.

"I've reached out to several wealthy acquaintances," Kaiser continued, his tone carrying no hint of moral concern. "They're interested in watching—privately, of course. I'll handle recruitment myself, scouting the full 456 participants. Everything mat...

My Life in Hollywood C4 Father-Son Talk

Marcus saw nothing wrong with Nathan asking for more money. After all, William clearly didn't lack funds, and twenty grand was simply too low. Any man, even if he couldn't sue, would feel insulted. Especially in Los Angeles. With the cost of living here, that money wouldn't last long.

However, he could also see that the "way" Nathan was negotiating with William wasn't smart. There were better ways to handle this, better ways to negotiate. It was too easy for him to let anger cons...

My Life in Hollywood C3 Money Talks

Marcus put on a pitiful expression and let out a deep breath. Arya could feel the shift in atmosphere immediately. As they sat on the bench, Marcus recounted what had happened last night.

"God, I can't believe your mom would do that." Arya looked at him, careful not to ask if he was okay—anyone who'd been through something like that wouldn't be okay.

"Mom made her choice. There's nothing I can do about it." Marcus sighed, looking genuinely troubled—which he was, ...

Tycoon Actor C514

Kobe's arrival barely registered with the general public. The media noticed—a basketball superstar landing in Seoul warranted at least a mention—but most outlets assumed it was basketball-related and moved on. The fact that Kobe had retired seemed to escape everyone's attention.

While Jennifer and Gianna headed out for some girl time exploring the city, Lucas brought Kobe to the Netflix Korea building to meet Maggie.

In the CEO's office, Mr. Kang and Maggie were ...

My Life in Hollywood C2 Cheat Triggered

If anyone could see Marcus at this moment, they'd witness his eyes staring into empty air, his expressionless face gradually transforming into one of pure delight, his eyes widening as he showed his full teeth in a grin.

"Yes! I actually got a freaking cheat after one week of living here!" He shouted unconsciously, not caring if anyone heard him. "I almost thought I'd have to live an average life like my previous one in this world..."

He remembered the self-insert pr...

My Life in Hollywood C1 Marcus's New Life

Marcus stared blankly into the empty dining space, mechanically lifting fork to mouth without tasting a single bite. His reflection gazed back from the darkened window—a young man with classic features, a strong chiseled jawline, thick brown hair with natural volume, and bright blue eyes that stared into nothing.

His mind seemed elsewhere, but in truth, he was listening to every word of the argument exploding in the living room.

"You're a bitch, Mariana! A bitch!" ...

Lord of Entertainment C416 King of Dragons

(3rd Person POV)

John Wick's box office performance lived up to Hellfire's reputation. The film dominated conversations and ticket sales throughout December, with Keanu Reeves' name spreading rapidly across multiple kingdoms.

Seventy-eight million dollars globally in just four days. Impressive by any standard—though still nowhere near Titanic's historic numbers.

What truly set John Wick apart was its resonance within specific communities. Criminal orga...

Lord of Entertainment C415 Mithrael's doubts

(3rd Person POV)

The angels found themselves drawn into John Wick's quest for revenge despite the story's entirely mortal cast. Curiosity overrode their usual detachment as the narrative unfolded.

On screen, a demon mobster named Ariel recognized the stolen car. His face went pale before he punched Iosef hard across the face.

Several angels chuckled at the scene. "That mobster clearly knows who Wick is. Look at how terrified he became."

The ...

Hey everyone,

I wanted to apologize for not uploading chapters as regularly as I usually do. I've been dealing with some anxiety lately, and it's been affecting my ability to keep up with my normal schedule.

Today things took an unexpected turn. I ended up in the emergency room with severe pain in the right side of my back. After getting lab work done and waiting for what felt like forever, I got the results: I have a kidney stone. I'm still processing this news and trying to wrap...

Tycoon Actor C513

The moment news broke that the "power couple" had arrived in South Korea, Korean social media exploded. Private KakaoTalk groups with thousands of members—usually dead silent except for the occasional meme—suddenly came alive with frantic activity.

"Just heard they're staying at the Shilla Hotel!"

"Who told you that? My cousin works at Signiel Seoul and said they checked in there."

"You're both wrong. It's defi...
