The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter five hundred and fifth turning point
Zach, Charles. Ronan entered the office, looked at the two people curiously, and asked, What are you talking about? It seems that you are very speculative.
Charles Rowan said with a smile: Zach heard that director Nolan is shooting a new Batman movie, and chatted with me about DC comics and superhero adaptation movies.
Will Smith said suddenly: I'm a fan of Bruce Wayne, but it's a pity that Ronan, the promoter and producer, refused to ask me to play Batman.
Given Will Smith's complexion, it was difficult for everyone to take up this topic, so Ronan simply asked Zach Schneider: Do you have any research on superhero comics?
Zack Snyder said directly: I'm a fan of DC comics.
Charles Rowan laughed twice, and said: Zac is a fan of DC comics. I have served as the producer of several DC superhero films, and we can find common topics.
Will Smith interjected: In the past two years, DC's comic movies have been surpassed by Marvel. As a fan of Bruce Wayne, I am a little sad.
Charles Rowan said: DC will catch up soon.
Ronan didn't answer, DC superhero movies are about to create an unprecedented peak moment in the history of superhero movies, Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy was directly deified by countless people, but it also dragged Bruce Wayne from the altar Back to the world.
I think DC comics are more conducive to film than Marvel. Zach Schneider said: DC comics have more depth and thickness, and some themes even touch on various problems in real society. If these can be filmed well, There is hope that superhero movies will become mainstream in Hollywood.
Charles Rowan nodded: Zach is right.
Ronan found out that Charles Rowan and Zach Schneider are born with the same rhythm, no wonder they have collaborated in so many movies.
Looking back once, I saw the right eye.
Charles Rowan and Ronan are also old acquaintances, and they also served as producers in Batman: Beginning of War. He said in a half-joking tone: Maybe one day, we will cooperate with Zach.
Zach Schneider smiled. Although this is one of the optional paths in the future, he also understands that the key is to successfully film Dawn of the Dead.
Ronan, don't you mind? Charles Ronan said with a smile: Zac can be regarded as the director you brought out.
Ronan was very generous: How could it be? Sandsea Entertainment respects Zac's ideas and only signed two movie contracts with him.
The meaning of these words is very clear. After Zach Schneider completes the director contract with Shahai Entertainment, Shahai Entertainment has no control over who he contracts with.
Will Smith joked: Having said that, Batman is the most popular superhero, but I have always wondered why Batman is popular because he doesn't have superpowers?
Ronan said casually: Who said Batman has no superpowers?
Will Smith widened his eyes and asked, What superpower does Bruce Wayne have?
Ronan gave a very short answer: Rich!
Charles Rowan and Zack Snyder immediately laughed.
Will Smith also laughed, touched his protruding ears, and said, I can't refute your answer.
Ronan couldn't help laughing too.
Several people chatted for a while, Charles Rowan and Will Smith casually found an excuse to leave the office, Ronan and Zack Schneider discussed the preparations for Dawn of the Dead and future shooting plans.
This film will not be filmed in Los Angeles. Most of the scenes are arranged in Ottawa, Canada, and a small part is in Toronto. Sandsea Entertainment has won tax rebates from Canada.
Although unlike Germany, the tax rebate benefits are returned in the early stage, and the ratio is much lower, but the production cost of 20 million US dollars can always save millions of dollars.
For such a well-crafted zombie thriller, the budget of 20 million US dollars is not high, and Canada's relatively low labor costs are also a major advantage.
This film will be released next year. After the release, it will cooperate with Zack Schneider for the second time. The copyright of Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta will be held by Shahai Entertainment. If Dawn of the Dead can be successful together, Spartan Three Hundred Warriors of Bada can give Zach Schneider more autonomy.
After chatting with Zach Schneider for a while, Ronan returned to the studio, Charles Rowan had already left, and only Will Smith was left chatting with Scarlett Johansson.
Ronan said hello to Scarlett Johansson and left the set of Dawn of the Dead with Will Smith.
The two got on the electric car, and Will Smith specifically reminded: It can be seen that Charles Rowan attaches great importance to Zach Schneider, and be careful that Warner Bros. poach people from you.
Ronan asked the driver to start the electric car, and said, It's okay, Zach Snyder has signed two film director contracts with Shahai Entertainment, and he can't leave until he finishes filming these two films.
Will Smith said: When you do things, you always do one step and watch three steps. He turned to ask: Do you think DC superheroes can surpass Marvel on the big screen?
Ronan did not answer directly, but instead said: From my standpoint and perspective, I hope that DC superhero movies can't do this!
Why? Will Smith asked subconsciously.
Ronan said frankly: Because I have more than 30 film and television copyrights of Marvel superheroes in my hands, the more successful Marvel superhero movies are, the stronger the collateral effect will be.
Will Smith suddenly realized: I forgot all of this.
Ronan couldn't help but think of Zack Snyder again. From the perspective of the commercial market, many of Zack's practices seem to be used as negative examples for future Marvel superhero movies.
For example, the controversial Batman v Superman.
To have a full blast watching Batman, viewers need to read The Death of Superman, The Dark Knight Returns, Kingdom Come, Injustice, Superman: The Red Son, Justice League: Origin and other DC comics, but having said that, a super blockbuster film costing 250 million US dollars and released in mainstream theaters, its core turned out to be a collective carnival for small fans, I have to say Bat Super From the beginning, the weak acceptance of ordinary audiences was not considered.
Adapting comics into movies, such a large commercial investment, must consider the friendliness of passers-by and audiences.
If it weren't for the great fame of Batman and Superman, could the previous Bat Super have such a high box office? And behind the high box office is the overdraft of the vitality of two super popular characters.
The biggest commercial success of this film is to create a successful Wonder Woman.
When the news of Gal Gadot's role as Wonder Woman came out, doubts arose everywhere.
Although she had a good performance in The Fast and the Furious, her flat figure was very different from the traditional image of Wonder Woman, but when she appeared on the stage, most of the comic fans with doubts instantly Become a kneeling and licking fan.
Gal Gadot really showed the elegant and brave Princess Diana to the fullest every minute.
Stop. Will Smith said at this time: Stop the car.
The four-wheeled battery car parked steadily at the entrance of a studio, and Nicole Kidman, who had red hair dyed blond, was standing there accompanied by her manager Pat Kingsley.
The two parties were familiar with each other, and Will Smith greeted, Nicole, where are you waiting for the bus? Come up.
Nicole Kidman glanced at Ronan, exchanged glances with Pat Kingsley, and got on the battery car together.
Ronan nodded slightly to them, and took the initiative to say hello: Hello, Nicole. Hello, Ms. Kingsley.
Nicole Kidman seemed to remember what happened last time, and replied lightly: Hello.
Pat Kingsley said hello to Ronan, looking at him with complicated eyes. Without this person last time, Tom Cruise's troubles would definitely not subside so quickly.
With such a boss standing behind Tom Cruise, it is not easy to hack him again, and it may even cause fire.
Working hard in the industry for so many years, Pat Kingsley knows very well who she can offend and who she can't afford to offend.
What is the difference between offending Ronan Anderson and directly offending Spielberg? And everyone in the circle knows that Ronan Anderson's personality is not as peaceful as Spielberg's.
Mr. Anderson. Pat Kingsley faced Ronan, which was completely different from Tom Cruise: Congratulations on another big hit movie.
Ronan replied politely: Thank you. He asked casually, Are you guys auditioning?
That studio was a new crew for Sony Columbia Pictures.
Pat Kingsley said with a smile: Sony invited Nicole to star in the film adapted from The Fairy Wife. The heroine is here for a routine audition today.
Hearing A Fairy Wife at Home, a line of lyrics immediately popped up in Ronan's mind: She always only leaves her phone number and never asks me to take her home...
That TV show seems to be based on a Hollywood show.
Will Smith to Nicole Kidman: Audition passed.
Nicole Kidman replied: Passed.
Congratulations. Ronan looked back at Nicole Kidman: I wish your new movie a hit.
This seems like a comedy, right? Nicole Kidman, who has a very cold temperament, starred in a comedy. It can only be said that the crew is too superstitious about the aura of Oscar's best actress.
If I remember correctly, this film was the turning point of Nicole Kidman's entire career.
Since then, Nicole Kidman has become a veritable box office poison.
With Nicole Kidman slipping, Pat Kingsley's status as a manager will also decline, and in the end it won't cause much trouble for Tom Cruise.
A failed film may change the life of a top star.
