Legend of Tomorrow

When the NBA regular season started, Guo Xu also left the United States and officially joined the crew to film the movie The Martian.

There is such a place on earth that is as desolate, quiet and silent as Mars. No wonder the crew wanted to come here to shoot and shoot. This is really an excellent shooting location on Mars.

This place is called Wadi Rum and has the most spectacular desert landscape in Jordan. It is listed as a world natural and cultural mixed heritage. This is a completely different world. The terrain is open and endless. In addition to the long stretches of yellow sand, there are also stone mountains that have been eroded by the wind, forming a unique Yadan landform.

The crew will not go deep into the desert. It’s not because the actors don’t work hard, and the veteran director Ridley Scott who is directing on the side cannot bear that kind of sin. They have shot some of the landscapes deep in the desert in advance, and most of the scenes will be shot on green screen.

Their main filming location is Moon Valley, and the ticket to the attraction has a poetic slogan - Leave only footprints, take nothing away.

In order to protect the environment of Wadi Rum, the Jordanian government banned the construction of hotels around Wadi Rum, but it unexpectedly led to a unique style of tourism. Tourists walked 35 kilometers through the desert and stayed in Arabian tents full of Bedouin style.

Even when a big name like Guo Xu comes, he can only sleep in a tent or an RV when filming on location. Megan Fox came here for the second time. She filmed Transformers 2 here and ran around in high heels.

Guo Xu can learn a lot every time he participates in blockbuster filming. In order to make a good movie, the director and cameraman must work together very well, use various equipment and use unlimited imagination. Film shooting angles and lighting are very particular.

The photographer of this crew is Dariusz Wolski, who is well-known in the industry. He has previously photographed the Pirates of the Caribbean tetralogy, Sweeney Todd and Alice in Wonderland, etc., and is good at A large-scale fantasy production with superb skills.

The main studio was Korda Studio 6 in west Budapest, which at 65 feet was larger than the Bond Studio in Pinewood.

The crew can completely build the Martian surface here, place a full-size residential module, and even drive a Mars rover. Green screen was only used to add distant CG mountains and panoramic footage shot during the preparatory stage. The research team is indispensable. They came to work one month in advance and studied the desert's color tone, landscape, lighting effects, etc.

In order to appear scientifically based, the crew also invited consultants from NASA, JPL and the European Space Agency to ensure that 90% of the things are authentic and credible.

After everything was ready, the filming of the movie officially started, starting with an group scene with a six-person aerospace team.

At this time, the actor does not need to have good acting skills,

The opening plot simply gives the audience an idea of ​​the film’s background. The six of them went on a mission to Mars and encountered a storm and had to evacuate temporarily. The actor Mark Watney was hit by debris and stranded on Mars. His teammates thought that his spacesuit was torn and he died.

It's not that my teammates are unjust, it's really a matter of life and death.

The actor spends most of his time wrapped in a spacesuit, can memorize his lines, and speaks with emotion. The order of filming at the beginning is not disrupted, which can make the actors feel more involved. After the teammates leave, it is Guo Xu's turn to have a one-man show.

Guo Xu's performance quickly conquered everyone in the crew and amazed everyone.

He staggered back to the living cabin, unplugged the metal antenna plugged into himself, took off his clothes and healed himself. The whole process was filmed in one go, and he looked like an injured person.

Every detail of his facial features was in place, as if he was really in pain and trying to hold it back. His breathing was very rhythmic, and he used this method to relieve the pain. He used pliers to remove the metal fragments from his body, and he breathed a sigh of relief when the bleeding finally stopped.

No one on the crew could find any flaws, it was so real.

After director Ridley stopped, Sebastian Stan, who was watching, exhaled and sighed: Oh my God, this is so good, isn't it? Did he really suffer such a puncture injury?

Stan's most famous role is Marvel's Winter Soldier Bucky, and his acting skills are not very good. When filming movies, he often sticks out his tongue habitually. Only when he plays a cool character with a paralyzed face can his acting skills not be too embarrassing.

Model worker Jessica Chastain, who has already been nominated for Best Actress, laughed: If he suffered such an injury, it would definitely be international news. I think this is called genius.

Michael Peña, who will play Ant-Man's chatty best friend in the future, asked Daddario next to him: Aren't you surprised at all? When did he practice his acting skills? How did he practice it?

I don't know when he practiced it, but he was able to teach me and Megan how to act. He was very good when we were filming Inception. Daddario was smiling and very proud.

Although many fans around the world feel that the relationship between the three of them is a bit messy and they have not gotten married yet, many people have always envied the two women for being able to fall in love with Superman.

In fact, Guo Xu performed as a substitute. During the time loop, he suffered a similar injury and could recall the pain. He could recall puncture wounds, various fractures, and gunshot wounds.

The injury in the drag racing accident was the most painful. As long as he didn't die, it would be a nightmare-like memory. It would be easy for him to act out the injured state.

Guo Xu later filmed a monologue and recorded a video in the residential cabin, telling the reasons for his survival and the situation he faced. He couldn't contact NASA. Even if he did, he would have to wait four years before anyone would come to Mars. The habitat was designed to only last for 31 days. If any of the tools inside broke, he might suffocate or die of thirst. , will explode and die.

Faced with this desperate situation, Guo Xu looked very helpless when he said these words.

When the male protagonist discovered a bag of live potatoes that was marked not to be opened before Thanksgiving, he immediately became energetic. He devised a plan to grow food that would last for three years.

The NASA psychologist was very interesting and thought it would be a very meaningful thing for the six crew members of Ares 3 to cook a meal together during Thanksgiving. The point isn’t about eating, it’s about doing it together. For this reason, a bag of fresh potatoes was extravagantly prepared for them to go into space.

Fortunately, I am a botanist, and Mars will be afraid of my botanical power. Guo Xu said confidently.

There are no more outdoor scenes for the other five astronauts, and we are just waiting for the crew to complete their preparations to shoot the final rescue scene. They watched from the sidelines and occasionally exchanged a few words.

Interestingly, there are many future Marvel actors in this crew, such as Benedict Wang, who plays King in Doctor Strange, his Chinese name is actually Huang Kaixuan, and the tomb robber Fatty Wang is also named Kaixuan... …

There are also Baron Mordo Chiwetel Ejiofor and Enzo Corenti, who played Guardians of the Galaxy.

Chiwetel is an accomplished actor. In 2013, he starred in 12 Years a Slave and was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor. But they won't meet Guo Xu for the time being.

The plot of the movie was shot separately. Guo Xu's personal scenes were shot first, and then the group of people joined the group after it was over to shoot the group scenes of everyone on the earth discussing how to rescue the protagonist, and finally edited them together.

There are only five people who have opposite roles with Guo Xu. Daddario plays the role of Kate Mara in the original version, and the others remain unchanged.

She is probably a bug in the film, because the people at NASA are not sure whether a person of her size can go into space, and whether a real space suit can be stuffed into it.
