The project tentatively named "Jurassic Park: Extinction" has been officially launched, and it is still in the preparatory stage for the time being. The director is waiting for the cast, and the whole project is progressing in an orderly manner.

Regarding the choice of the male lead, only Steven Spielberg and Ron Mayer are currently under discussion.

The rumored list of top actors appeared at this moment.

In such a blockbuster project, after a brainstorming session, the casting directors and producers will draw up a list of Hollywood actors and actresses, about 30 to 50, and then display them in Lang's office. on the table.

Long and Steven will conduct preliminary screening and deletion, determine a directional concept and idea, reduce the list to less than 30 as much as possible, and mark the focus of attention; the remaining audition, evaluation, selection work, then To the casting director and related staff.

In this list, the top one is undoubtedly the hottest actor in Hollywood right now; and those who can successfully rank among the top ten are either distinctive and impressive, and can be easily seen on paper; or Brokers are tough and superb, and their influence penetrates into the entire industry in all aspects.

Although it is said that there may be various exceptions and accidents in the whole actor selection process; but overall, the top resources are still in the hands of a few people, and the youth of the entire Hollywood is epitomized in this list of actors Above, but also a testament to the top of the Vanity Fair pyramid.

Renly tops this cast list for Jurassic Park: Extinction!

There is no doubt, not only Universal Pictures, but also other film companies. Faced with this hot young actor, almost no one can refuse. All projects have found Renly. According to rumors, Andy Rogers will not be allowed to An office is not specially set up for stacking and selecting the relevant materials of the invited projects.

The same is true tonight. Although Renly failed to win his second golden statuette, he was still the most watched actor on Oscar night, even Daniel Day-Lewis, who made history, was defeated. After all, Daniel refused to appear in any commercial films, while Renly opened up all possibilities.

Even within Universal itself, despite the fuss of the "Fast and the Furious" crew, they still believe that Renly is the best choice.

However, after screening, Ron Mayer set the actor's age between twenty-eight and thirty-five. Renly, who was under 24 this year, was just out of the game.

On the bright side, the male protagonists of mainstream Hollywood commercial blockbusters are generally between the ages of 30 and 45, because they are the main consumers of the commercial film market.

If you tend to be younger, then it is closer to the age of 30, which can attract more young audiences; but if you are younger, this is not a mainstream commercial movie, but a teen movie, like "Harry Potter" ", "Twilight", "Hunger Games" in general, the market positioning and planning are completely different.

"Raiders of the Lost Ark 4" chose Shia LaBeouf as the leading actor. Shia was only twenty-two years old at the time and made his debut with the "Transformers" series; but the special feature of the movie is that Harrison- Ford starred - Harrison and Shia formed a father and son role, forming a dual-lead model. Twenty-two-year-old Shia was able to play the leading role at such a young age.

At least on the surface, sounding and impeccable; however, Steven understands his old friend's calculus and intentions.

Renly's guess was correct. On the cooperative road of "Jurassic Park: Extinction", Lang is still the core level that cannot be bypassed.

His eyes fell on Renly, and Steven showed a confident and indifferent smile, "As for the follow-up of the project, it is too early to talk about the details, we are currently working on the script, and hope to be able to determine a clearer With a clear creative idea, it is estimated that filming will not start within this year. So, let’s wait and see what happens.”

"This is good news." Renly smiled and met Steven's scrutinizing eyes, "because I don't have any plans to shoot any new works in the next few months, I'm ready to relax and enjoy a long vacation. ."

"Really?" Steven showed an unexpected look and joked, "Young people are in a period of rising careers, shouldn't they increase their horsepower and keep sprinting?" After the joke, Steven's conversation changed, "However, a vacation is indeed necessary. Only by relaxing and recharging can you save more energy for the next departure. So, what are your plans now? I mean vacation options."

Gradually, Renly and Steven relaxed and went into small talk mode.

In fact, the conversation about work only lasted for less than five minutes. Whether it was Steven or Renly, they all knew clearly that today was just an inquiry of intentions, and there is still a long way to go before the real cooperation. road.

Needless to say, "Jurassic Park: Extinction" is a super blockbuster!

Times are changing, and the number of investment projects of 300 million US dollars has gradually increased. At present, 100 million investment projects have gradually become mainstream, and 100 million North American box office is no longer new and rare, and can only be regarded as a standard configuration; thus, 150 million The investment cost can be called a super blockbuster.

The reason for this measurement is based on the statistics of the movie box office of the past ten years.

out. The most stable range for the ratio of investment to income is between 80 million and 150 million. Below or above this range, the risk will become severe - of course, the higher the risk, the loss and earnings may be higher.

Therefore, super blockbusters with more than 150 million yuan will have different levels and specifications, and their operations and planning will also be completely different.

Now, Universal Pictures is preparing to restart the "Jurassic Park" project. The cost budget is 150 million, and the treatment must be adjusted accordingly; what's more, this is Universal Pictures, and Hollywood is the most stingy and most cautious of Universal Pictures.

For a simple comparison, in the past three years, the proportion of investment in super blockbusters by the six major Hollywood studios:

Twelve Disney, ten Warner Bros., seven Paramount, four Sony Pictures, three Twentieth Century Fox, and three Universal Pictures.

On the whole, the decline of 20th Century Fox and Universal Pictures is very obvious, but the former invested in "Avatar" and showed excellent courage; while the latter's three super blockbusters are "Robin Hood" and "Snow White". With the Hunter" and "Super Battleship", all three works hit the street, and they vomited blood.

Against this backdrop, Universal Pictures is more cautious than in previous years in launching any super blockbuster project.

From project approval to casting to cooperation, the whole process is extremely long, and it may take one to two years. Whether the cast lineup formed at the beginning can be fully continued when the filming officially starts at the end is a big deal. Question marks, not to mention actors, even the relatively fixed positions of directors, screenwriters, and producers are full of unknowns.

As Steven said, it is extremely difficult to start shooting within this year.

This is Renly's first mega-blockbuster in the truest sense of the word - neither "Fast \u0026 Furious 5" nor "Edge of Tomorrow" are up to that standard, so whether or not the eventual collaboration works out, it's a one-off Quite an interesting experience.

In addition, Renly is also very interested in the polishing process of the script and characters. When filming "Fast and Furious 5" and "Edge of Tomorrow", Renly put forward some opinions in the crew, no matter whether they are accepted or not, but the directors and producers of the crew have opened up all kinds of possibilities. Sex, which also adds a lot of fun to the collaborative process.

So what about this time?

Moreover, the partner is still Universal Pictures, which is even more interesting.

To be honest, Renly is somewhat looking forward to where things will go next.

...

"Huh, I haven't queued for a long time, and now it seems that I have grown older and lost some patience."

"Are you sure, it's not because of the increase in status and wealth?"

Facing Renly's joking rebuttal, Barry Mayer was stunned for a moment, then spread his hands, and admitted the accusation calmly, but instead of getting angry, he shot back playfully, "It seems that your attack power is not as strong tonight. It's bullish, is it for the same reason?"

Ren Li pursed the corners of his mouth, his eyes flickered slightly, as if a glimmer of smugness slipped through his eyes, but he was still more sly, "Without this land, where would I be able to enjoy such treatment? Leave some bragging rights in the future."

Barry raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile flowed from the bottom of his eyes, which was why he liked talking with Renly. The wisdom and calmness between his gestures revealed a unique temperament.

Of course, all of them can now be interpreted as the status of "hereditary nobles".

"Obviously, you've achieved your purpose," Barry said straight, raising his champagne in a salute, "Tonight, everyone wants to visit Renly Hall. After all, on such an occasion, It's definitely a rare thing to see Renly in the middle of it. If you miss this time, you won't know when the next time will be."

"Maybe, next year?" Renly's final note was lightly picked, but the jokes and ridicule in the words were satisfied. It was obviously a well-informed rhetorical question. It was concise and meaningful, and successfully made Barry smile again. .

The conversation with Steven ended, and it was already forty minutes ago.

After Steven left, the crowd around Renly was never deserted. At least two people, at most a dozen people, coming and going, back and forth, and bustling, he just needed to sit on the sofa casually. , this corner can easily become the focus of the audience.

It was not until Barry's appearance that the surrounding noise calmed down a little.

In a sense, Barry saved Renly.
