Final Destination was a movie that Kazir Grey wrote, well, in this timeline.
It was about unforeseen accidents that seemed coincidental that killed every person who tried to escape death.
Of course, Miramax didn't feel good that this horror movie would have the same release date as Sin City. Sin City was a great artistic film and that was true.
Unfortunately, it was hard to face a movie that was written by the best scriptwriter in Hollywood.
If the script was written by Kazir Grey, then it was 100% profitable. That was the slogan that people created whenever they heard that a studio acquired Kazir's script. Some studios were jealous, while others were seething with anger.
Actually, Miramax wanted to buy at least one script from Kazir. But Harvey Weinstein held a deep grudge against Kazir. He knew that it was better to forget everything and make friends with the director. But the fat fuck was too arrogant to accept.
Besides, Kazir might not accept his apology. The two sides already showed their intentions.
On April 1, Final Destination was released and the movie created a unique horror genre.
Accidents.
Yup, in our everyday life, accidents could happen that could put lives. A
Slippery floor, a wrong step on the stairs, and even choking on food.
These accidents that people didn't think of seriously became the main topic of Final Destination.
This unique approach to the horror genre made people scared and aware of their surroundings. This was the essence of Final Destination. An amazing concept that Director Grey had written.
As expected, Director Grey cooked again.
"I'm scared to take a shower after what happened to Tod!"
Scarlett shivered while wearing a towel around her body. Kazir just chuckled listening to her cute voice.
"Enzo really delivered an amazing death."
Enzo took the role of Tod Waggner, the student who died in the bathroom, getting strangled by a curtain cord. The first victim in Final Destination.
His death was one of the most memorable deaths in the franchise.
Imagine dying in the bathroom getting strangled by a cord. It was scary. It was understandable why Scarlett was afraid to take a shower alone.
Kazir checked the internet and sure enough, many people were complaining because of Final Destination. The terror it gave to the audience was realistic and it could happen to anyone.
Kazir also checked articles related to Tobey Maguire. After the scandal, Tobey was doing great. He changed his image and now had dark black hair, just like his role in Final Destination.
Kazir was satisfied helping the actor. After all, Kazir also hated the paparazzi so he could relate to Tobey's situation.
He stopped surfing the internet and decided to continue writing a script.
"Babe, how about we take a shower together? I'm scared."
The actresses hugged his neck from behind, slightly putting weight on her breasts and Kazir could feel them.
"What are you writing?"
"It's a script... A script for a horror movie." Kazir slightly smiled.
The script he was writing was original. He wrote it in his past life and decided to write it again this time.
'No, this is not just a simple script. It's a script that I turned into a horror movie. It was released in a few theaters in Los Angeles before going to streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu.'
This script was already a movie... Perhaps one of his greatest regrets. He believed that this movie had a chance to break through the box office. He thought this movie would become his stepping stone to stardom. He put his soul, blood, and time just to create this movie... He failed. It became his trauma instead.
"Are you okay, babe? You look sad?"
Scarlett was worried as Kazir's expression didn't feel right. She rubbed his cheeks to make him smile.
"How about we play some games in the shower?" She teased.
"Final Destination is just a movie."
Kazir saw through her intention.
"But I'm scared, accidents can happen everywhere. I blame you for what I'm experiencing right now."
"Why?"
"You're the one who wrote the movie. So you deserve to make it for me by showering with me."
"Okay fine."
Kazir carried the woman and Scarlett giggled. Kazir knew how to make Scarlett's heart beat faster.
Instead of getting into an accident, the shower became an amazing experience for the couple.

...
The first weekend of Final Destination was $42 million. This Final Destination had many factors that made it perform better compared to the original.
First was the cast. Tobey Maguire was the leading male.
Second was the scriptwriter, which was Kazir Grey.
Third was the difference in the release year. The original version was released in 2000 while Tobey's version was released in 2005.
These factors created a good result. Giving the Final Destination $42 million on its first weekend.
As for Sin City, the movie had great reviews and the critics loved it because it sticks with the essence of the comic. Unfortunately, its black-and-white style became one of the reasons why only a few people watched it. Its first weekend was $29 million.
The two movies' first weekend made millions, but everything came down to word of mouth. An important factor that determines the trajectory of a movie.
Unfortunately for Sin City, Final Destination had a better reputation. Because of its new approach to horror movies, Final Destination pulled many people to watch the movie.
Final Destination had around $35 million production cost and Tobey Maguire was the most expensive actor that they hired. In just three days, the movie already surpassed its production cost, which was a great thing.
One thing was sure, 20th Century Fox was having a party because horror movies were the best franchise to milk. Horror movies needed a small budget, yet the profit it could bring was ten times the amount. There were millions of fans of horror movies in the United States alone.

You know, I always hate when fanfics like this have their mc’s make up their own movies. Like I’m reading fanfics for a reason you know? But I just had an idea that you could use author bro, have the mc make adaptations. They could be 100% original so that they follow your goal of showing the mc’s growth, but still be apart of beloved franchises. For example; the mc wants to do a horror movie, have him make a Dark Souls movie or something like Resident Evil or Doom. Kazir would still handle all the writing and stuff behind making a movie, but you won’t get the apathy from readers that comes when making something original/unknown in this kind of story.
