Post-shadow Development Plan

Although these three characters played very few roles in the "Iron Man" movie, and Nick Fury even had only one scene, Qiye paid much more attention to the three actors than the male villains in the movie.

Because these three characters will appear many times in subsequent Marvel movies, the actors must be required to sign long-term contracts.

Relatively speaking, the movie's villain, Iron Overlord, is not that important, as long as you find an actor with excellent acting skills.

Marvel's iron-clad protagonist, the villain of Liushui, this sentence is not for nothing.

"We have already negotiated the actor of Colson, and the other party is willing to sign a long-term contract." Fitch replied, "As for the role of Nick Fury, we are still communicating with Samuel Jackson. There is interest in the role, but his agent would prefer not to sign a long-term deal."

"Don't even think about it." Qiye directly refused, "If you don't want to make a long-term contract, forget it. It doesn't have to be Samuel Jackson."

With such a large span in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Qiye would definitely not agree to any resident character being exempted from the long-term contract.

In fact, not only these supporting roles, even Downey as the protagonist also needs to sign a long-term contract with Marvel for 7 movies + 10 guest appearances.

At the same time, preparations for "The Incredible Hulk" are already underway. At Qiye's request, several characters who may be resident in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the future must also sign long-term contracts.

Thinking about the exaggerated remuneration of the actors in the later stage of Marvel, Qiye felt that it was necessary to reduce the cost as much as possible.

In his last life, Downey went directly from the $1 film of "Iron Man 50" to $1000 million. When it came to "Endgame", Downey even got nearly $8000 million in salary plus share.

Although Downey is indeed worthy of the money Marvel gave him from the box office of the movie and the acting skills of the characters, why should he pay more if he can save costs?

Therefore, at Qiye's request, Downey signed a long-term contract with Marvel from the beginning of his life.

Excluding the very first movie, which was still still $50, the subsequent sequel movies, Marvel, have set up bonuses, but the maximum limit is 2000 million U.S. dollars.

Of course, if the movie's box office performance is very good, Marvel will give Downey a certain amount of rewards based on the performance, but the exaggerated dividends in the previous life are definitely gone.

As for how Marvel tricked Downey into signing the agreement, it was taught by Qiye.

The reason is Downey's old-fashioned drug use problem, and put forward quite severe requirements for Downey's breach of contract.

This made Downey think that Marvel attaches great importance to the movie "Iron Man" and has serialization ideas, so he is so strict in asking himself to pay attention to maintaining the image of a superhero.

Therefore, although he had some complaints about such a long film contract, he still readily agreed to the agreement after seeing that he could enter the upper limit of the $2000 million club after the series.

This is probably the biggest benefit of the future view of the time traveler. No one in this world except Qiye will know how successful the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be, and it is not clear that this series will become a dominant existence.

You must know that even senior Marvel fans dare not think that after more than ten years, they will see such a scene on the big screen——

Captain America actually uses Thor's Hammer to save Spider-Man wearing a suit made by Iron Man.

"I'll fight for it, and if it doesn't work I'll find someone else."

Fitch nodded. As the film's executive producer, he certainly knew which one had more weight between Qiye's words and Samuel Jackson's manager's words.

Anyway, in the original comics, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., who is still white, appears more. Nick Fury, based on Samuel Jackson, is just a character in the parallel universe of comics.

"You can also look for the director of "Iron Man". Do you already have a suitable candidate?"

"There are a few alternatives, and the materials are already on your temporary desk." Fitch said, "Although none of them are big directors, at least one work is the basis, which can tell whether their level is good or bad. with the cinematic style."

Qiye made an ok gesture: "I will go and see."

"Seriously, Kiryu, are you really not going to direct "Iron Man"? I think it would be safer for you to come."

Although he had tried countless times, Fei Qi still tried to pull Qiye into the pit again.

Qiye, without any surprises, rejected him again: "No, my style doesn't match "Iron Man" at all, and I will be very busy this year, and I guess it will be next year when the schedule becomes vacant. You guys can't wait. rise."

After Qiye was about to leave, he suddenly thought of another thing.

"Fitch, I know you've been in Hollywood for a long time, can you recommend some actors?"

Kevin Feige has been the producer of Marvel movies since 2000. Of course, his producer and the current producer of "Iron Man" are completely different concepts.

The current Fitch can be said to exist under one person and above ten thousand in the "Iron Man" project, except for Qiye, he can not be a bird.

And Qiye also believes in Fei Qi's ability, so he rarely asks about the specific matters of project preparation, and only controls the general direction.

In other words, Fitch is the hands-on leader of the Iron Man project.

But in the past, Fitch could only be said to be a small role with the name of a producer.

The only role he joined the crew was as a consultant for the original comics.

It's a pity that all he can do is give some constructive suggestions, and it's nothing for him to make a final decision.

For example, in the failed "Fantastic Four" last year, Fitch raised objections to the character design of Dr. Doom in the movie.

However, people from Fox sprayed it back with the sentence "Do you understand movies or do I understand movies?!"

But having no power in the crew does not mean having no knowledge. After experiencing so many crews, Kevin Fitch's talent in watching actors is almost full.

He can tell at a glance what kind of actor is suitable for what kind of role.

"What kind of actors do you need? White, black, or ethnic minorities?" Fitch asked curiously.

"One is a young fresh meat with good acting skills, and the other is a big muscular guy, both of whom are white actors."

Qiye plans to start with the Rider group first. After all, Weber is one of the three male protagonists, so the casting must be done carefully.

Webber needs to transform from a young man to a mature one, which requires relatively high acting skills.

The priority of the actor of the other King of Conquerors is after Weber, because Qiye is more interested in the interaction and sparks between him and Weber's actors.

Even if there is an actor who is very suitable, if it doesn't coordinate with Weber's actor, Qiye will not consider him.
