The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter 731 The episode of throwing the trash can
Mark Miller really likes the setting and structure of Kingsman.
In the office, Robert Lee said to Ronan: So, I want to obtain authorization from Shahai Entertainment to adapt Kingsman Agent into comics.
Ronan directly asked the most critical question: What about the copyright?
Robert Lee said: The condition I put forward is that the adapted comics will be published by Marvel Entertainment, and the copyright will belong to Relativity Entertainment. Mark Miller can share the income from the comics just like the screenwriters hired by Marvel Entertainment.
The film and other peripheral revenues are not involved, Ronan has no objection to this, and asked: Mark Miller agreed?
He agreed in principle. Robert Lee looked at Ronan and said, But he wants to make a big change to the plot of the movie. I can't make the decision, so I can only come to you, the scriptwriter.
If not for this, Robert Lee has full power to decide other matters and directly sign with Mark Miller.
The film in Shahai Entertainment's film library is Ronan's version of the Arab protagonist based on the magic modification of the previous movie Kingsman. The setting and structure are not much different from that movie, but the content is completely different.
The previous film is also an adaptation, does it have something to do with Mark Miller? Ronan became interested and asked, How does he want to change?
Robert Lee had an exchange with Mark Miller, and he simply said: The main character has been changed to the British, and the secret service organization is no longer worldwide, but an ancient British organization similar to the Knights of the Round Table. requirements, to recreate the personable agent type.
The Bourne Shadow series has led to another wave of tough-guy agents with punches to the flesh. The traditional Bond-style spy films are a bit outdated.
But movies are always changing, and the tastes of market audiences are also changing.
Ronan is well aware of this, and these changes seem to have returned to the previous route. He just thought for a while and said: Yes, I agree to authorize Mark Miller, and you are responsible for negotiating the specific conditions.
I'm fine here. Robert Lee picked up a Kick-Ass comic and said, I'm going to see the violent little lolita.
He said as he walked, Don't say it, this dark type of cartoon looks very interesting.
Ronan has already browsed the comics. Compared with the previous movies, the original comics are more bloody, violent and dark, and the scale is much larger than Marvel's traditional comics.
The movie must not be adapted like this, otherwise it will definitely be included in the ranks of NC-17, let alone R-rated.
Of course, the popularity of this film can be said to be a very important factor for the super violent cute loli.
The actress in the past seemed to be young, so she was not the only one who had to be an actor. There are many outstanding female child stars born in the 1990s, such as Dakota Fanning, who is also in a mess.
After the copyright is in hand, there is no need to worry about film adaptations. There is no shortage of adaptation projects at Shahai Entertainment.
Starting from this year, Shahai Entertainment has invested a considerable part of its resources in the production of TV series. Netflix’s streaming business will not be used as a platform for Relativity Entertainment’s movie premiere in a short period of time, and the direct premieres are mainly TV series.
Prison Break and Wilderness Survival have already been filmed and produced, and they are only waiting for Netflix's streaming media business to go public.
In addition, a number of TV drama projects have also begun to be planned. The Chernobyl project of Marianne Del Rio, the winner of the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Film, has been completed after the test shot was given the green light. The filming phase started at the beginning of the month.
At present, the crew has moved to Ukraine, and will shoot some outdoor scenes near Kiev.
After Jeff Abrams' Taken 2 finished filming and moved into post-production, he began to split his time between directing the film's post-production and pre-planning the TV series project Lost .
Abrams will direct the first few episodes of this TV series,
Then take control as a producer.
Similarly, both Lost and Chernobyl were packaged by Shahai Entertainment to CAA as a one-stop service.
Ronan doesn't believe in CAA's packaged production capabilities for first-tier large-scale productions and even second-tier commercial films, because their packaged services have basically never been involved in commercial films with large investment scale.
But packaging TV series, this is CAA's housekeeping skill.
However, CAA’s recent recommendation of actors is a bit unreliable, probably because of the pressure from star-level actor clients to constantly change jobs. In the past year or so, CAA has signed many new actors, and it seems that they want to cultivate more loyalty and recognition for CAA customer of.
It's not easy for a newcomer to come out, and it's basically the same in all business circles, unless it's the second generation.
Just like Lindsay Lohan and Blake Lively were recommended to the crew of Gossip Girl which has already started filming, CAA is selling its newcomer clients all over Hollywood.
The effect can only be said to be average. For example, Ronan asked Lindsay Bill to cross out Lindsay Lohan directly.
For the crew of Lost, CAA recommended a young actress named Evangeline Lily to play the leading role. After Ronan saw the naturally old-fashioned face in the profile photo, he firmly rejected it.
The actresses recommended by CAA had unqualified appearance problems one after another, which made Ronan have the urge to kick CAA and cooperate with other agency companies.
First Lindsay Lohan, then Evangeline Lilly, what the hell?
Could it be that Shahai Entertainment's most basic requirement for a vase-like character, beautiful and sexy, is so difficult to understand?
Brian Lord quickly called Ronan and said that he would personally ask about the actor recommendation for this role.
In any case, CAA is the largest agency in Hollywood, and it is impossible for Ronan to easily make the decision to kick out such an important partner as CAA because of his temporary likes and dislikes.
Relativity Entertainment has cooperated with major Hollywood brokerage companies. For all the film projects shot by Shahai Entertainment, Ronan has never restricted which brokerage company the actors or behind-the-scenes staff come from, but in TV drama projects, CAA clients have always been given priority.
Shahai Entertainment's first TV series, namely Grey's Anatomy, which has been aired for three seasons, was able to successfully enter the public TV station in the first season and was successful. CAA played an extremely important role.
The relativity entertainment back then was not the relativity entertainment it is now.
The TV series of Relativity Entertainment will basically not enter the TV platform again, and the platform of choice in the future will be Netflix streaming media.
After the TV series become popular, including DVD rental and sales, all can be carried out through the Netflix platform.
Lost, Gossip Girl and Chernobyl are three series, the latter will only be filmed for one season, and the former will be the first season. The fate is determined by the market response.
All three drama series will finish filming and production in the middle of next year, and will be put on Netflix's streaming media platform one after another.
In addition, House of Cards, The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones are all recruited by Shahai Entertainment's screenwriter department to adapt the scripts of the first season.
However, Netflix’s streaming media must maintain its popularity, and works that may become popular dramas must be launched one after another, rather than investing in it all at once.
It will take some time to prepare for the shooting of these two parts.
Ronan has seen far fewer American dramas than movies, and the inventory is really limited. He can only let the screenwriter department make appropriate creations based on some impressions.
For example, collect horror legends from all over the United States, and see if there is any possibility of adapting horror TV series after fusion.
There is also a famous TV series. Although I haven't watched it, I have heard of Xie Er's name. In the past, there were many voices on the Internet saying that a certain TV series plagiarized Xie Er's and so on.
When Ronan also convened a meeting of the screenwriting department, he focused on this concept, asking the screenwriters to create a suitable sitcom based on a few otaku and beauties as themes.
For this kind of drama, the investment in the first season is low. After the script is completed and passed the review, you can shoot the next season to try out the effect.
A dozen or so episodes were filmed in the first season, and a few million dollars was enough.
With the current strength of Shahai Entertainment, even if it fails, this loss can be fully afforded.
If it is successful, let alone The Big Bang Theory, half of the results can be achieved, which means that a large profit may be generated.
Selling DVDs alone can sell out.
Many of Netflix's hit dramas, even if they can be watched online at any time, still have a large number of consumers paying for DVDs.
Ronan has never watched the previous The Big Bang Theory, so he can only cross the river by feeling the stones in this way.
Fortunately, sitcoms are a common type in Hollywood, so shooting them is not difficult.
After the screenwriting meeting, George Clint chatted with Ronan and suggested a project.
A TV project, brought in by Vince Gilligan.
In the office, George Clint poured a glass of water with Ronan, put it on the coffee table next to him, and took a thick document bag from the desk, and handed it to Ronan: This man has been a screenwriter , has worked as a producer and director, and is also an old qualification in Hollywood.
Ronan said truthfully: I haven't heard of him before.
George Clint smiled and said, Actually, I've never heard of it before. After a little joke, he added: It was recommended by James Huang and Glenn Morgan.
Ronan had already opened the file bag. Hearing these two people, he had certain expectations for the contents of the file bag.
Both James Huang and Glenn Morgan have worked with Shahai Entertainment, and the former is still working on Reaper 4. These two are relatively reliable types, and the recommended people should not be outrageous.
George Clint continued: Vince Gilligan worked with James Wong and Glenn Morgan on The X-Files for two years. The project came to us after being picked up by, FX, TNT , HBO and many other TV stations refused, and the most exaggerated thing is that someone watched it and threw it directly into the trash can.
He added: According to James Huang, the reasons for rejection were mostly the same - no one wants to read a story about a middle-aged uncle dealing drugs in New Mexico...
