Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 453

Nolan thought for a moment and said, "If it needs to be delayed for two months, I'm fine with that. I can waive my fee for the reshoots until the filming is completed."

Nolan had recently won the Best Actor Award, and his fees had skyrocketed.

Although he accepted this project, he only slightly reduced his fees from the base rate. However, his fees were already the highest among the cast.

It would be a significant contribution from Nolan to waive his fees and allow the fund to pay for the equipment rental costs.

While this was a solution, it was clearly not a permanent fix.

Reshoots would require not just Nolan but several other actors to be on standby.

These actors had already signed contracts with other production teams, and the sudden changes would not be as easily negotiated.

Unlike Nolan, they might not be as accommodating since they needed to make a living and were not the main stars.

Convincing all these actors to be on standby for two months would be a significant undertaking.

Moreover, Nolan's waived fees wouldn't cover the entire cost.

Essentially, spending money to buy actors' time was a considerable issue.

The producer didn't have an endless supply of money. Furthermore, post-production costs, such as special effects, necessitated a substantial budget.

The director sighed. He was slightly relieved and said, "Nolan, thank you."

Nolan replied, "No problem; it's what I should do. I also want this series to succeed."

The director turned to Violeta and asked, "What about you?"

Nolan had waived his fees.

If Violeta didn't, it would make her seem uncooperative.

However, Violeta wasn't planning to waive her fees just yet, as it wasn't the right time.

She paused and then said, "I have an idea to complete the filming within the deadline."

The director looked intrigued. "Oh?"

Violeta smiled and said, "It might not be very favorable for some actors."

The director urged, "Well, let's hear it."
