The Greatest Showman

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

Actors can choose scripts for many reasons, one of which is "cooperation partners", because a certain director, because of a certain screenwriter, or because of a certain actor, unconditionally nods and agrees to play.

When Liang/Chao/Wei acted in "Spring/Light/Zia/Xie", it was like this, just because the director Wang/Jia/Wei knew nothing about the script, subject matter, story and characters, he even thought it was A movie about love. As a result, on the first day of the crew, the first scene was filmed with Zhang/Guo/Rong in the kiss/hot/scenario. Unprepared, he braved the stage and sat next to him for a few hours after the filming, thinking about life. .

Quentin Tarantino is also one of the directors who unconditionally wants to work with many actors. Compared with performances, scripts, and roles, Quentin's works are the most interesting because of their strong personal touch.

Is "Django Unchained" a good work? Yes. But is this work for Renly? not necessarily. As Roy said, it depends on whether Renly is interested in Quentin. If yes, then nothing is a problem; if not, then there is no need to discuss this work.

This is also the reason why Roy put it in the "uncertain" group. Renly had never exchanged his attitude and thoughts about Quentin.

However, Roy looked at Renly secretly, but found nothing, his calm and calm posture was not leaking. Inexplicably, Roy thought of the reporters who kept getting shut out, and his anxiety and anxiety settled down a little. The original idea of ​​asking Renly's thoughts was temporarily put aside: this time, it was a test for him. You have to prove yourself first.

After subconsciously taking a sip of coffee, the hot liquid scalded the tip of his tongue, and Roy realized his nervousness. After rolling around in the Screen Actors Guild for so many years, he thought he had seen countless winds and waves, and had long been accustomed to various challenges and would not be more nervous, but obviously, he overestimated himself. This made Roy laugh dumbly, his tense mood was relieved, and he regained his spirits.

Roy sorted out his thoughts, and without waiting for Renly to start reading, he took the initiative to express his opinion, "These two scripts can actually be put together and said that they are both typical commercial blockbusters, and the stories can't stand it. Deliberation, it is still based on special effects; on the other hand, actors need to show heroism and their own characteristics. The test is still on the personal charm of the actors.”

"However, the two scripts are slightly different. One is more like 'Transformers', which I personally don't like, you are not Shia LaBeouf; the other is more like 'Star Wars', which is more dependent on the hero's Personal performance, as well as the shaping of the role, depends on whether you can become the second Harrison Ford." Roy's words were not much or not, and the key was just right.

Renly looked at the two scripts in his hand and speculated that "Super Battleship" corresponds to "Transformers", and "Alien Battlefield" corresponds to "Star Wars".

Roy's eyes always stayed on Renly, and he immediately caught the smile on the corner of Renly's mouth. This was the first time that Renly had a slanted expression since the conversation started today. Could it be because Did Renly like both scripts, or did he like one of them?

Then Roy listened to Renly and asked, "From the tone of your voice, you still have a choice, so why did you put it in 'not sure'?"

As we all know, the protagonist of "Transformers" is not human, but Transformers. To be precise, the protagonist should be director Michael Bay, then Transformers, and finally humans. Therefore, the actors participating in the show are completely vases, and Megan Fox also became popular as a vase. There is no doubt that such a movie is more suitable for the youth idol niche.

Since "Super Battleship" and "Transformers" are the same style, it can be heard from Roy's tone that he is not optimistic about this work. Relatively speaking, his admiration index for "Alien Battlefield" is even higher.

Roy anticipated such a problem and said calmly, "Because they are super commercial blockbusters, the criteria for judging are different. Their advantages and disadvantages are obvious, I need to talk to you face-to-face to learn more about you In addition, Andy needs to inquire about the director, visual effects, co-actors and other information before making a judgment."

The so-called super commercial blockbuster has a fixed formula, and not any work can have such a name.

First of all, there are requirements for investment. Now the minimum standard in North America is 100 million US dollars, but generally speaking, 150 million US dollars can be worthy of the "super" level, such as "Fast and Furious 5", "" Captain America" ​​and "Thor" with an investment between 100 million and 150 million are just blockbusters.

Second, the subject matter is required. Science fiction, action, superheroes, adventure, fantasy, war, etc., these types of movies can be called super commercial blockbusters. For example, "Snow White and the Huntsman" invested 170 million, but this is not a super commercial blockbuster, just a commercial work.

Again, the scale is required, such as the visual effects team, such as the post-production team, such as the props team. For a crew like "Transformers", there are usually more than 300 fixed staff members who can be named. This does not include dragon actors, extras, and temporary staff for local shooting. If all are counted, more than one Thousands of people are easy things.

This summer, the only three movies that can be called super blockbusters are "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Part 2)", "Pirates of the Caribbean 4", and "Transformers 3".

Can't live up to the title of "Super". It is precisely because of this that the production process, cooperation steps, shooting situation and other aspects of super blockbusters are all different and cannot be measured according to ordinary works.

"Super Battleship" and "Alien Battlefield" are real super commercial blockbusters.

The former invested 210 million US dollars and was built by Universal Pictures. It was adapted from the war chess game "Battleship Attack and Defense" by Baby Boy, and was related to "Transformers". At present, the director Peter-berg has been locked, and works such as "National Superman Hancock" and "Light of Victory" have been filmed. KidsBaby is eager to replicate the commercial success of "Transformers" and "Special Forces."

The latter cost 250 million, Disney is responsible for the production, and the background is even more famous. It is adapted from the novel of the same name by Edgar-rice-burroughs, one of the originators of science fiction, and the director locked it. Andrew-stanton, who has taken Hollywood's place with Finding Nemo and Wall-E, will make his first live-action film.

It is worth mentioning that the English name of "Alien Battlefield" is "John-Carter", which is very famous. Original author Edgar's best-known character is "Tarzan the Ape," but his series "John Carter on Mars," in which George Lucas admits to be "Star Wars," is more famous. Inspiration, and James - Cameron candidly "Avatar" is based on this novel to create.

It is no exaggeration to say that "Super Battleship" and "Alien Battlefield" are definitely fighters in blockbuster films. In the current market where 150 million yuan has become the mainstream, a big hand is a budget of 200 million yuan. "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Superman Returns" and other works are not inferior; and before the production, the director is determined, and the director and screenwriter work together to set the tone and style of the work to ensure that the entire team can cohesion , to ensure the quality of the work.

Let's look at the background of the two works. Any one of them will be the focus of attention. They are rooted and seeded, and they are real potential seed players. Success seems to be a matter of finding things. For any actor, this is difficult. The temptation/temptation to refuse.

Even for Renly. Both works are platforms for displaying self-charm, as well as media for displaying commercial potential. On the one hand, they continue the tough, strong, yet in-depth character image of "Fast and Furious 5"; Lift the beam and shoulder the weight of a super blockbuster. Once the trip is made, then the career will take a substantial leap.

Andy took a fancy to these two scripts, and Renly was not surprised at all. Since the sequel negotiations of "Speed ​​and Passion" have a bad start, Andy will naturally have to prepare both hands. Except for Warner Bros., who has no news yet, it seems that "Super Battleship" and "Alien Battlefield" are the alternatives. Now, no matter which work it is, once Renly can compete for the male lead, the remuneration can definitely be raised a notch.

However, "Super Battleship" is also a work produced by Universal Pictures. The following Michael Fordry, Neil H-Moritz and others are irrelevant. The production teams of different works are naturally different, and the focus is still on Lang- Mayer's attitude.

Inadvertently flipping through the script of "Super Battleship" in his hand, Renly's attention was always on Roy, and he asked quietly, "So what about just following the script? Do you think these two scripts? Is it worth recommending, or should it be rejected?"

Roy stared at Renly, a super commercial blockbuster cannot be judged purely from the script, but a comprehensive consideration, just like "Transformers", a work with a simple and straightforward script, as good as the box office; and "The Rise of the Planet of the Apes". "Such a commercial work with rich connotation and depth may not be able to beat "Fast and Furious 5" at the box office.

Roy believed that it was impossible for Renly not to know this, but Renly still focused on the script. It's hard for a strong man, but Roy knows that Renly did it on purpose.

"I will reject 'Super Battleship' and choose 'Alien Battlefield'." Roy did not hesitate or quibble, but gave a straightforward answer, and then Roy saw the corner of Renly's mouth again A meaningful smile appeared, but Roy couldn't figure it out. This feeling was too aggrieved, so Roy asked directly, "What? Do you have any judgment?"

This is the first time Roy has taken the initiative since the conversation today. Because Roy knew that this was Renly's test for him and Andy's test for him, so he accepted it calmly. But now that the nine works have been finished, Roy is still confused about Renly's attitude. This feeling is not good, really bad.
