Post-shadow Development Plan

A look of struggle flashed across Peter's face, before it all died down to a sigh.

"Isn't that good? Isn't "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" starring him going to be released this year?"

There was a half-smile on Qiye's face.

Peter shook his head: "That's because this movie was made before his accident, and his life will definitely not be easy in the future."

There was a sneer in Qiye's heart. He who has been paying attention to Hollywood certainly knows what Peter said.

But Qiye's attitude towards this is - now that I know I regret it, what did I do long ago?What's the use of asking for help now if you didn't improve your acting skills when you had the opportunity?

Orlando Bloom's affairs are a bit complicated, but he has his own reasons for getting to this point.

After becoming famous with Legolas, the elf prince shines again in "Pirates of the Caribbean".

Although all the flowers and applause in "Pirates of the Caribbean" were dedicated to Depp as the supporting actor, the brilliance of the elf prince as the leading actor was almost completely overshadowed.

But even so, the success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" can be regarded as helping Orlando stabilize his position.

Then the elf prince took over the starring role of an epic movie "Kingdom of Heaven", trying to continue his glory in the "Lord of the Rings" series.

However, things are not what everyone thinks, the release version of the film is a mess, and the audience reviews are simply terrible.

People in later generations always blame the failure of the movie "Kingdom of Heaven" on Fox's blind operation.

Because Fox directly asked someone to re-cut the movie after discovering that the director's cut version was more than 3 hours long.

The 192-minute movie was abruptly cut to 145 minutes, directly cutting an epic masterpiece into a mess.

Almost all the audience watched in a cloud of fog, not knowing what to say.

This also triggered a public relations crisis for the film media, because almost most of the media were very satisfied with the film before the film was released, and even sang praises.

It is conceivable that when the audience sees such a SB movie, they are angry.

Fortunately, all the media immediately explained that they watched the 3-hour director's cut version, and the director's cut version released later also proved the excellence of this movie.

After that, everyone pointed the finger at the film's distribution company, 20th Century Fox.

Think the old fox killed the movie.

In fact, from Qiye’s point of view, even if Fox actually releases the director’s cut version, it may not necessarily make the movie a success.

After all, a movie of more than 3 hours is a bit too much. If you let the audience watch it for such a long time at one time, it is estimated that not many people can stand it.

The release version lasted more than 3 hours and was also a successful commercial movie. The only movies that Qiye can name are "King Kong" and Marvel's "Endgame" produced by the fat man in front of him.

There is nothing wrong with Fox asking people to cut the movie short. The only thing they did wrong was to exclude the director from the edit when editing the release version.

As for why Fox would do this, Qiye guessed that the eight successes were due to the arrogance of Liuda himself, or because he didn't want to give the director too much power.

However, Qiye thinks that if the director of "Kingdom of Heaven" edits it himself, maybe he can produce a movie with a relatively complete story line.

But as for whether this movie will be successful, Qiye doesn't know, anyway, he himself doesn't like it.

After all, costume epic movies have been losing money since 2003, and the reason is because of the fat man sitting in front of me.

Because "The Lord of the Rings" is so successful and great that all similar movies will be compared to it.

As long as there is a gap with "The Lord of the Rings", it will be infinitely magnified, and then lead to the failure of this movie.

The failure of "Kingdom of Heaven" has become a foregone conclusion, so according to the fine traditions of large companies, someone must be responsible for the failure of a large project.

Anyway, Fox itself will certainly not admit its failure-although they passed the 3-hour version of "King Kong" a few months after "Kingdom of Heaven" was released.

But what you do is what you do, what you say is what you say.

There must be someone who takes the blame for things like this.

So the director and the leading actor became victims of the failure of the film project, especially the leading actor Orlando Bloom. Not only did Fox reject him, but other Hollywood film companies also removed him from the ranks of starring in big-budget movies.

In Qiye's memory, there are only a handful of big productions that the elf prince has participated in after the Kingdom of Heaven, and only the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series and "The Hobbit" series are considered famous.

If it weren't for the fact that "Pirates of the Caribbean 1" had already been released before "Kingdom of Heaven", "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" would have been filmed.

Qiye estimated that with Disney's urine, he would definitely kick the elf prince away.

Hollywood has always been a very realistic place. If actors can't bring themselves profits, then it is unavoidable to abandon them directly.

"In fact, when Disney was negotiating the contract for "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" with Orlando, it had already proposed to reduce the role of the other party."

Peter Jackson said with a sad face.

For Orlando Bloom, Peter Fatty is still very affectionate.

Although Peter was very strict with Orlando when he was filming, he still had a crush on him.

Otherwise, Legolas, a character that does not exist in the original book, would not be added to the "Hobbit" series, and Orlando, whose appearance has begun to decline, will also be played.

So after Orlando complained to himself some time ago, Peter was also helping him find a way.

Don't think about the big six here, the name of Orlando's box office poison has been spread all over the world, and no one dares to use him.

The only company other than the Big Six capable of producing large-scale commercial films is Jiufeng Entertainment, which has just emerged in North America with the help of fate.

Coincidentally, Peter knew that Qiye had already started preparing Fate's new work, so he came to him with a shy face.

"I know you are preparing for fz's project. Can you give Orlando a role? Supporting roles are also fine. What he needs now is to stabilize his position."
