Legendary Hollywood Director

Row to New York is still showing.

But Lyman is starting to get busy with Firefly's new TV series.

As a part of the zombie project, the movie is a part of the TV to realize the traffic, and it is necessary to conceive a plot line suitable for a long story.

Three days later, when Lyman wrote the outline for the small half, setting the tone for the show, it was handed over to Jonathan Nolan's writing team.

Formally fill in the plot story.

One is that the background of the episode revolves around the collapse of society after the outbreak of the zombie virus; the other is that the protagonist group is the savior to restore order.

The storyline mainly grasps these two aspects, and it is generally impossible to go wrong.

And just as Lehman started this matter and wrote the first version of the script as soon as possible, someone came to him - Paul Anderson wanted to see him, and he came to Hollywood from England.

It is said that when he was studying, he graduated as the youngest student with a bachelor's degree in film and literature at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom. There is a little bookishness in his bones.

Think about it, this guy is a man who specially created a series of movies Resident Evil for his girlfriend in order to please his girlfriend and express his love.

Milla Jovovich did get along with Paul more and more during the filming of the movie. After thinking about it for a long time, the two held an engagement in 2003 and officially became Paul's fiancee.

Therefore, since he watched New York Trip that day and gained some inspiration, he immediately conceived the third feature film of Resident Evil, but how he wrote it, he always felt that it was almost meaningless and not very confident, so he suddenly On a whim, I want to meet Lyman, who has created the highest-grossing zombie-themed work. Meet and chat with him.

As for whether Lehman is willing to meet him, and whether he will make any suggestions for his script outline after meeting, it is not within Paul Anderson's expectations.

Without him, only self-willed.

He just tried, and he had seen director Lehmann's past works, and felt that he was also a sentimental person, and should not refuse an invitation to play a screenwriter.

In short, this product is here to get the truth.

Although the first and second Resident Evil were still successful, they did not really hold Milla Jovovich to purple, which actually made him a little dissatisfied. Of course, his fiancee doesn't mind, and even if there is a fire in the future, the two will still love each other.

......

Paul Anderson came to him, and it did baffle Lyman, but he agreed.

On this day, Lyman was discussing the construction of the script for the first season with Jonathan and others. The girl at the front desk knocked on the door and brought people up.

Paul Anderson was only 38 years old. He was wearing a black and white plaid sweater and a thick black leather coat. His hair was not well groomed, he looked tousled, and his appearance was very ordinary. A special face with a pair of black-rimmed glasses on his nose.

After the front desk left, Lyman dragged him to the next office and asked the assistant to make a cup of coffee.

Seeing Lehman himself, Paul Anderson looked a little shy and didn't talk much. He politely said hello and sat on the sofa, looking at him.

However, Lehmann is actually quite interested in him, or the projects he is in charge of.

How hot will the Resident Evil series be in the future?

Lyman still knew.

Right now, the Lord came to the door and showed him a script. This......

Wouldn't it be to pull investment?

Haven't heard of Paul Anderson running out of money.

Behind this fellow, there are local production companies in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom to endorse him, and Mubao Films helps them seek distribution in North America - Paul Anderson's operation is very similar to the early Lehman, both of which are united with the European film and television industry. , looking for a North American distribution company to work together to make a profit.

Oh, by the way, the shareholders of Mubao Films are the above-mentioned German Constantine Films, French Davis and British Impact Films, three other foundations plus Wall Street.

It can be said to be very European, similar to the background of Lionsgate, but without the financial strength and courage of Lionsgate, it is determined to establish a foothold in Hollywood. It belongs to the kind of people who leave after earning a fortune. They usually don’t get involved too much and compete for Hollywood’s film and television resources.

Lehman opened the script with doubts, and before he could read it carefully, Paul Anderson finally remembered what he was here for, and said excitedly: Mr. Lehman, I like your company's New York Trip very much. , this script also refers to the collapse of humanity after the sudden zombie virus destroys the social order in the movie. The only pity is that the description of this part in New York Row is too small. I want to try it in Resident Evil The sequel also added this kind of portrayal of morality and social phenomena without the law...

Lehman looked at it and said, Well, it's a very good idea, you continue to say it.

Paul Anderson saw that Lyman was listening attentively, and said with joy: Resident Evil: Extinction is a continuation of the previous Apocalypse story. With the earth-shattering explosion of a powerful nuclear weapon, the entire city of Lacken has been removed from Meitu. The survivors' camp built on top of the ruins is extremely difficult to live in. On the other hand, when Alice learns that the source of all the terrible disasters in the camp is from the umbrella company, she is determined to enter the umbrella company. The company's headquarters...

This version of Paul Anderson's script is not as marketable as the previous version, and is somewhat literary.

Of course, every version of the script of this product is a compromise. The requirements of the management and the preferences of the actors have been changed in a mess after it is formed. This is also a very normal thing in the industry. Even if Paul Anderson is the producer of the entire series, he can't do it exactly as he wants.

After reading the script outline, it is not very different from the plot in Lehman's previous life memory, but it focuses on adding some scenes to describe how the survivors struggle to survive in the zombie-infested city...

Of course, Lehmann has filmed and supervised so many film and television works, and the plots and actors have been changed, so I don't think there is any problem.

He really wanted to see that if it was filmed according to the currently designed script outline, it would be very easy to beat the box office of the first two previous works, even if it was not as good as New York Row.

This is entirely from the market perspective that Lehman developed personally, and it is also the experience of watching movies accumulated in his previous life for more than ten years.

After closing the script, Ryman asked with some doubts: The outline and main line are well written, but are you coming to me?

Oh, I'm a little unsure whether the movie will be accepted by the audience. The first two films were adapted from the game's plot, and most of this film did not refer to the original game.

Haha, is this also the attitude of adaptation? It's not restricted. Those who have played the game may not necessarily go to the theater to support it. Your eyes should be wider, not just satisfying game fans.

To be honest, it was from the third part of the previous life that the plot of the original game was greatly changed, and the Resident Evil series really rose.
