Chapter 36 I was obviously the one who came first (please vote for me, please give me a reward)
Time flies to mid-October. In addition to playing with Gadot, Eric is paying attention to the progress of several major projects.
The box office of "Red Dragon" in its first weekend was close to 60 million US dollars. This result also stimulated the actors and directors, and everyone worked hard to promote it.
The box office represents your performance, your resume, and it is also related to your box office appeal. Who would think that their resume is not good-looking?
In addition, the reputation is good and the suspense movie has more stamina, so the box office of "Red Dragon" only dropped 45% in its second week, taking in 31 million US dollars.
At the same time, the opening weekend box office of several other countries has also been released, with the UK taking 8.5 million US dollars, France 6.9 million US dollars, Germany 8.8 million US dollars, Italy 6.2 million US dollars, and Spain 6.3 million US dollars.
These five countries are considered to be the largest box office in Europe. Other countries such as Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Norway, and Belgium are far less capable of box office contribution than these five. The total box office of an average movie can only reach three-thirds of these five. About one to one quarter.
In addition to Europe, the big ticket warehouses in Asia are RB and South Korea, but the release time in these two countries is later and will be delayed for another week.
As for China, it had not yet emerged in 2002. Since there was no film rating system, censorship was very strict, the share ratio was low, and at the same time it was very interested in movie genres, so it was not considered at all.
For a thriller and suspense film like "Red Dragon", most of the large-scale scenes will be deleted, and even if it is actually released, it will not be well received.
Eric remembered that Jiang Wen's "Looking for a Gun" was released in 2002, and the box office did not even reach 10 million.
Even domestic suspense films are not good, and "Red Dragon" is definitely not good. Only action and romance blockbusters like "True Lies" and "Titanic" are profitable.
Now the total box office of "Red Dragon" has reached 90 million U.S. dollars in North America and 62 million U.S. dollars in overseas box office, with a total box office of 500 million U.S. dollars.
After it is released in RB, South Korea, Australia and other countries, analysts predict that the final box office is expected to reach US$300 million.
In "Saw", Ray Whannell finally gave up his role as the leading actor, and he wanted to focus on polishing the script.
Then I contacted the people recommended by Eric. After reading the script, Ryan Reynolds and Patrick Wilson expressed their interest in starring.
Ryan Reynolds also called Eric specifically to inquire. After learning some inside information such as promotion and sequels, he became even more determined to win the role.
But it seems that some things are destined to be together, and some people are destined to come together.
Ryan Reynolds obviously contacted Wen Lei in advance and gained their approval, but when Patrick flew from Broadway to Los Angeles, everything seemed to change.
On the set of "Sharknado", the sun sets and the day's work comes to an end.
In order to catch up with the schedule and meet Eric's requirements, the entire crew has been very nervous recently. Warren and director Anthony Ferrante expressed their gratitude to everyone while encouraging everyone.
Especially Ryan Reynolds. Ferrante said a lot of good things. There is nothing I can do about it. Although Reynolds is not very famous, he is already the biggest influencer in this crew.
Fortunately, Ryan Reynolds has a good personality, doesn't do anything special, and works hard in his acting.
Many people are gossiping about him privately. Why is he acting so seriously in a movie that he clearly knows is a bad movie? He is like a dead dog.
But maybe this is what actors have faith, they have professional ethics and they have dreams.
It doesn’t matter if the show sucks, as long as I don’t suck!
As long as Eric Cooper can see it! As long as he doesn't forget his promise!
After taking off his makeup, washing the blood off his body, changing into light clothes, and saying goodbye to everyone, Ryan Reynolds took out his mobile phone from the box.
As he walked out of the studio, he lowered his head. What caught his eye was James Wan's missed call, and instantly an unpleasant feeling lingered in his heart.
He is very familiar with this feeling because he has rich experience. It is the feeling of being robbed of a role and the feeling of being unlucky again.
Quickly call Wen Ziren back.
"Director, this is Ryan Reynolds. Sorry, I was at work and didn't find the phone. Is there something wrong?"
After a moment, Ryan Reynolds stood there blankly, muttering mechanically: "I understand, yes, it's all for work, thank you for letting me audition, okay, okay, I understand, bye!"
After hanging up the phone, this old man, who was now 26 years old and had been in the industry for 12 years but still had no success, stood there stupidly.
He screwed up, and screwed up again. He screwed up so many times in the past 12 years that he should have become numb. But given such a good opportunity, he still felt confused and heartbroken.
I don’t know where I lost. It’s obvious that you also think highly of me. It’s obvious that everyone has already agreed, but it just changed.
It was obviously me who came first!
What made him even more uncomfortable was that this opportunity was recommended by Eric Cooper, and he didn't know what he would think of himself, or whether he would think that he was an incompetent fool.
"Hey! What's wrong Ryan, you've been standing here for half an hour!"
Suddenly, someone slapped him hard on the back. Ryan Reynolds staggered and looked back, only to see Warren standing behind him.
After a long period of contact, the two became very familiar. Although Warren is a producer, he is very kind. Although his compatibility with women is not good, his compatibility with men is very good.
Ryan Reynolds also knew that he was Eric's sidekick and did not hide it and told the truth.
After listening, Warren sighed: "Ryan, this kind of thing is inevitable. You have been in Hollywood for a long time and you know it."
Ryan Reynolds said in a low voice: "Yes, I'm used to it."
Seeing his decline, Warren couldn't bear it, and he knew that the other party was really working hard and wanted a chance.
Patted him on the shoulder: "Ryan, how about this? I'll contact Eric and maybe I can help you get this opportunity."
Ryan Reynolds' eyes lit up. If Eric Cooper is willing to speak, even James Wan must obey his orders.
But the relationship between me and Eric is not strong enough, and I will definitely not be able to open my mouth. If Warren comes forward, maybe it can be done.
In fact, the Actors Guild strictly prohibits getting roles through connections. If you find that your opponent is unfairly competing, such as bribing directors, you can report it to the union.
But looking at human society for thousands of years, there is no circle that does not rely on connections, so this kind of thing has always been judged by who has a tough hand, and almost no actors will report it. It is similar to the law that requires civil servants to pay overtime pay, but it is never implemented.
Ryan Reynolds asked hopefully: "Is it really possible? But isn't this bad? Will Eric have a problem with me?"
Seeing him worried about gains and losses, Warren laughed loudly: "It's just a try. Don't have high hopes. If you don't succeed, forget it. Besides, he and I haven't played together for a long time. Let's do it now. Is it suitable?" The place?"
Gudong...
Ryan Reynolds swallowed: "How about Avalon?"
"good taste!"
Please give me a reward, please give me a monthly ticket, please read more, brothers, don’t keep books, or if there is any channel to help recommend, I am extremely grateful, it’s all up to you!
