Spiderman movie’s casting for the other characters of the movie had already started. Many actors and actresses, established or not in the industry, applied for auditions, considering how huge it would be and the potential that Will showed with every one of his works. Also, Dream Vision growing broader and higher was something in which every agency saw an opportunity.
Currently, Will, Amanda, Jeffery and the crew are having a meeting hurriedly. For the meeting, even the marketing team was present.
Although Will realised some of the faces, he could not seem to remember every name of everyone present. Nevertheless, the meeting was to discuss something fundamental regarding the marketing and promotion of [Spiderman].
“We will have a special team to do the task I have in mind. I want them to film everything behind the scenes, around the set and especially things behind the cameras that you would think which people would love,” Will explained, looking at the front row.

Three men and two women were sitting, looking at him with a frown. Questioning ‘what is this new thing that Will had come up with’ – which they had plastered on their faces.
“But why? Won’t that be extra work? Not to mention it would put a strain on the budgets.” The man to the left corner asked, wanting to know the reason.
“That’s the most important part. We will market behind the scenes before and after the movie’s release. In short, watching these behind-the-scenes videos would be for two reasons: they would want to watch the movie, or if they have already watched and enjoyed it, they would want to know things that happened behind the scenes.
And also, in a way, giving insight about how we put all the elements together in a movie, would increase its value. People are already curious about how Dream Vision works, so we can take this chance to market ourselves and grab more attention,” Will explained, looking at each of them.
“However, the main reason is, we are NOT creating just another movie. We are creating history. We can share the story of it if we film everything that happens behind the camera,” Will finally muttered, grabbing everyone’s attention.
The ‘history’ part he said seemed to turn tables in their minds, they nodded, understanding what Will explained.
“Yeah, you’re right,” Someone among the crew said while making everyone nod again.
“It will actually help people to connect deeper with the story and the movie if we provide them with video clips from behind the scenes. I mean, imagine when you get to see your favourite character, which would be acted by your favourite actor. How awesome would that be? Of course, the plus point of it would be when behind the scenes are out, and how they could enjoy the little things that are connected to the actor and their acting skills,” A young lady with short black hair, who wore spectacles added while agreeing with Will’s request.
“That sounds like a good marketing strategy,” The man who ought to be the head marketing director implied with a meaningful smile.
“Furthermore, my idea can actually bring in lots of interest. The promotions can start right after we finish filming once we have the clips we need. And another thing, I want to target every country for promotions where Spiderman would be released,” Will said.
“But that would be a lot of money to invest in marketing,” Amanda spoke up, considering what Will mentioned.
Some of the eyes turned to look at her, while others focused on Will, who looked at Amanda as well.
“We won’t be doing it all alone. Every studio in the Big 6 is interested in being a part of the movie. We can use their help and connections. We can focus on the deals as soon as possible because I believe we already got some people asking for it, right?” Will questioned Amanda.
“Yeah,” she muttered back.
“Yes, moving on. I also want to announce the movie in the next Marvel Comics issue in every print. That would collect a lot of audiences even before the release since the demand for the comics is going high. We could release the cast like this too.” Will’s focus changed to Stan Lee and Ross.
“Sure,” Ross replied as quickly as possible.
“So apart from all of it, we can also use the regular marketing strategies, like social media, movie websites, the press, and then after the movie, we can auction some of the props. The other teams can go into the websites, create quizzes, social competitions which are super trending these days,” Will explained, looking at everyone.
Most of the marketing managers were taking notes or simply listening to Will. Sooner or later, they had to act on every suggestion he gave.
“And we should make arrangements with the other studios to increase the width of our targeted audience and make them market the ideas. Since it’s not just two or three studios who are interested, I think we might get a great deal.” Will explained.
“Yeah, that would be great. And also…”
The meeting about the marketing and promotional strategies of the next big hit went on for two hours more, where they discussed a lot from ideas to money, and then the budget to the estimated dates of the ideas Will presented.
“That would be it for today,” Will said while still sitting on the chair.
A few whispers, ‘okay’s and some other replies were heard while they all stood up. In an instant, everyone walked out of the door while Stan Lee walked towards Will.
“I have a request,” He said, and Will tilted his head in question. Stan Lee looked serious and looked like he had something very important to ask.

“What is it?” Will questioned.
“Can I play J. Jonah Jameson?” Stan Lee questioned, yet his voice was slightly layered with hesitance.
The question took Will by surprise. It was because Stan Lee had wanted to play J. Jonah Jameson even in his past life. Stan Lee wanted to play it, considering how Jameson was one of his favourite characters. Stan Lee had even admitted how much he wanted to do the movie, even auditioned for the role– but couldn’t do it because he was not right for the part; he was considerably old.
J.K. Simmons finally played J. Jonah Jameson’s character in Will’s previous life. It has been mentioned how Stan Lee had gone on to be highly complimentary of Simmons’ portrayal.
But in front of Will, Stan Lee stood wanting an answer if he could audition or not for the role.
“I have another plan for you in mind,”
“What is it?”
“I actually want the Spiderman movie to have a cameo from you. And if you can, in every Spiderman movie I make from now on,” Will said, seeing Stan Lee visibly confused and calm.
“Yeah, sounds like a good idea, thanks,” He relented. “I should get back to work,” Stan Lee walked out of the room after smiling slightly at him.
Will understood the disappointment in Stan Lee’s voice, but also, he thought it was for the better. Even in the original movies, Stan Lee from the other universe had cameos in different superhero movies.
Will could not give him the role because he had seen Simmon exist in this world. He saw J.K. Simmons act in one of the independent movies he had watched. Also, the actor was more or less working in Indie movies and was career-wise famous in film festivals.
After watching the movie, and Will confirmed that it was him, he contacted the agency to rope him in.

The Hollywood Weekly had an article published about how they had assumed things regarding [Spiderman], although when they have no specific information, yet got closer to things considering how paparazzi keep a close eye in the studio building.
New Movie release by Dream Vision; Will Evans — Rumours with Evidence
There had been rumours about how another movie by Dream Vision is being prepared and has been under pre-production for several weeks now. After Will was free from the coma and the hospital released him, it was mentioned that he took a week to himself, finally getting a break from the coma and the movies.
The discussions of a new movie started right after Will resumed working in Dream Vision. It has been mentioned that we could expect an announcement soon which could possibly give us more details about Will Evans’ next project.
Accept it or not, most people in and outside of the industry await any announcement that Dream Vision has to make, considering how quiet it went after Will went into a coma for three weeks straight.
Regardless, there is some information that could possibly lead us to assume things before any sort of official announcement.
The main story would be how the Canadian actor—Damon McDonald is said to be acting in the new movie, considering how he was seen walking outside Dream Vision with a pile of papers in his hand. Damon was an actor who was famous for all the side characters he did during the last five years.
It would not be a miracle if Damon remained as an established actor in the industry after taking part in one of the movies which Will Evans would direct.
The new movie can be considered as something which is related to Marvel comics. The evidence is how the reporters claim that Will Evans had been seen going in and out of the Marvel studios quite often during the past few days.
Although we have a glimpse of who would be in the movie, the possibility of the rest of the assumptions being true are– fifty-fifty.
Nevertheless, we could possibly assume that the wait is worth the movie.

Yesterday, the doctor found out I also have kidney stones and will need laser treatment, which will happen in a week or two once my typhoid is cured. So consider this a heads-up if the updates suddenly stop again.
Good news is typhoid is slowly going away, although it will still take time to fully recover. However, I have enough energy to write now. I will do as much as I can, and should be able to keep the updates consistent.
