Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1988 1990 [Spider-Man]

   "Rush Hour" was released the year before last and achieved a global box office of 300 million US dollars. It is the highest-grossing movie since Jackie Chan's film career. Therefore, "Rush Hour 2" will naturally be arranged.

  In addition to the return of Jackie Chan and Martin Lawrence, the new film also includes famous movie stars such as Zhang Ziyi, John Lung, Sammo Hung, Yuan Biao, etc. It can be said to be a star-studded movie.

   Moreover, brothers Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, and Sammo Hung reunited after more than ten years, which also made many old audiences burst into tears and were very excited.

   Coupled with the well-arranged story and exciting and intense fighting scenes, "Rush Hour 2" is still a good box office. The box office in North America was 260 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office exceeded 450 million U.S. dollars.

  Such achievements also make Jackie Chan eligible to be among the first-line Hollywood stars.

  …

  In November, Xiang Nan finished filming "Fast and Furious", and then he asked Jessica Alba to meet.

  Jessica Alba was born in 1981 and made her debut in 1993. She started as a model, and then entered the film and television industry, starring in some unknown movies.

  Until 1998, she starred in the sci-fi action drama "Dark Angel of Doom" produced by James Cameron. After the show aired, it received good reviews at the box office. Jessica Alba benefited from this and became famous for a while.

   Coupled with her exquisite facial features, protruding figure, and sweet temperament, she quickly became the idol of boys and girls. Has a certain popularity in the United States.

   "Miss Alba, you are as beautiful as James told me." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

   "Thank you for the compliment." Jessica nodded with a smile, and then replied, "Charles, you are more handsome in real life than on the screen."

  Although Xiang Nan is already forty-four years old, due to years of martial arts practice, his figure is still in good shape and he is not tired at all. His hair was black, his skin was firm, and his eyes were bright. He was completely different from the average middle-aged greasy man in his forties.

Moreover, a man is a flower at the age of 40. A man of 40 years old has a wealth of life experience, and his career is also at its peak, so the whole person has a mature charm. An eight-year-old young boy is even more attractive.

   What's more, Xiang Nan is a successful person among successful people, and his shining aura makes him deeply loved by beautiful women.

   "Really, thank you." Xiang Nan nodded, "Miss Alba, I invite you over today because there is a movie, and I want to invite you to collaborate."

   "Okay, it's my honor." Jessica Alba nodded immediately upon hearing this.

  Xiang Nan smiled, he wanted to invite Jessica Alba to shoot the superhero movie "Spider-Man".

  Now there are two series in the Marvel Universe that are being filmed, one is the Defenders Universe series and the other is the X-Men series. Xiang Nan plans to shoot Spider-Man again.

On the one hand, Spider-Man itself is a popular character in Marvel comics. His role is "Your Good Neighbor", who specializes in helping ordinary citizens resolve disasters, **** the strong and help the weak. For young people, such a down-to-earth role is naturally Very engaging.

   On the one hand, Spider-Man and Daredevil from The Defenders are neighbors, both in New York City, and have a common rival, Kim Bin. And Jessica Jones are high school classmates.

   In addition, Spider-Man is also a member of the Avengers, and has many interactions with Iron Man, Ant-Man, and Hulk. So filming "Spider-Man" will help expand the Defenders universe and lead to the Avengers.

  Jessica Alba couldn't help being very excited when she heard that Xiang Nan wanted to play the heroine of "Spider-Man".

  Superhero movies are very popular at this stage. "Daredevil", "Luke Cage", "Iron Fist", "The Defenders", "X-Men" and other box office sales are all very good.

   And Spider-Man's popularity is higher than these superheroes, so the box office must be good. For a newcomer like her, it is really a blessing to be able to star in such a movie with great box office potential.

   "Mr. Charles, can you really let me act in this movie?" Jessica asked in surprise.

   "Of course." Xiang Nan nodded.

  In the original "Spider-Man", Peter Parker's girlfriend was played by Kristen Dunst. To be honest, this role was not considered a success.

  Because Kristen Dunst is not really a beauty, she played Mary Jane who fascinated Spider-Man, the Little Green Goblin and the mayor's son, which is really not convincing.

  In comparison, Jessica Alba is really suitable for this role. Only she has the charm of turning all beings upside down.

   "However, you can't be too sure, I have other candidates." Xiang Nan laughed again, and didn't want the lion to open his mouth when Jessica Alba was talking about the salary.

   "People like Anne Hathaway, Natalie Portman, Dominique Swain, Eva Mendes, etc. are eager to play this role. So, it depends on your performance."

  The few listed by Xiang Nan are all beauties with impeccable looks and figures. Their acting skills are also outstanding, and they are also very well-known, no worse than Jessica Alba.

   "Okay." Jessica Alba nodded, knowing that there will be many people competing for this role, but she will not give it up to others easily.

  …

  In the next two months, Xiang Nan was busy preparing for a new filming project, while tutoring Jessica Alba.

  With his acting skills, help her understand and figure out the role, not too simple. And feelings come from everywhere, no matter how close a friend is, even if they haven't seen each other for ten years, they won't be as close as before. Therefore, in the process of getting along, the relationship between Xiang Nan and Jessica is also heating up day by day.

   Just when they were talking about each other, Universal Pictures released the movie "Cat and Mouse Game" directed by Li An.

   This movie, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kevin Costner, tells the story of the legendary American liar Frank Abagnale in the 1970s.

  The film does not focus on how Frank cheated, but on why he cheated, in order to show the uniqueness of this character.

   After all, there are many liars in this world, and all kinds of deceptions emerge in endlessly. Shoot those stories again, there is nothing new at all. On the contrary, it is to dig deep into the cheating motives of the liars, which makes the audience feel more fresh.

  The joining of the two stars, coupled with the hard work of director Li An, and the wonderful story of Xiang Nan, made this "A Game of Cat and Mouse" fast-paced and exciting, so it was very popular with the audience after it was released.

  In the end, the box office in North America was 240 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was 350 million U.S. dollars. Compared with the production cost of 70 million U.S. dollars, it was a big profit.

   With the help of this movie, Li An once again proved his strength, and it also allowed him to go further on the road to becoming a top Hollywood director.
