The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 942 Love and Hate

Latest URL: Perhaps Ronan’s warning played a role. During the rest of the publicity journey, Johnny Depp restrained himself a lot, at least he didn’t take the initiative to die, until the release of Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End, Basically no more negative news.

Johnny Depp without negative news is the best Captain Jack Sparrow.

In the eyes of fans, Johnny Depp is indeed impeccable.

In order to satisfy the wish of fans to sign autographs and take photos, they even took the initiative to extend the meet and greet for half an hour.

Therefore, when Johnny Depp walked the red carpet on the day of the premiere, the fans at the scene were almost boiling.

The red carpet directly turned into Johnny Depp's personal show. Even when the scene started to be chaotic, several bodyguards couldn't stop Johnny Depp from signing autographs for fans.

Jessica Felton stood on the steps in front of the Capstone Theater, looked at Johnny Depp surrounded by crazy fans, and said: This guy, it's really hard to judge.

Ronan said calmly: Angels always live with devils.

Jessica Felton nodded slowly: Depp is a good idol, but not a dedicated actor.

Ronan smiled: At least nothing worse happened.

Stars like Johnny Depp really make Hollywood producers love and hate.

This is the premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and the first highlight of all Relativity Entertainment's 2006 film projects.

This is the end of the trilogy, and Ronan will not start the fourth before 2010.

It will even be suspended for a few more years, so that Pirates of the Caribbean will become the feelings of more movie fans.

To be precise, this series is now the feelings of many people.

Inherent fans strongly support, newcomers can also be attracted by the captain, even the little blacksmith has a large number of fans.

With the two roles of the little blacksmith Will Turner and Batman, Christian Bale has successfully entered the top Hollywood.

Twentieth Century Fox In order to invite him to star in Terminator 4\

,"A $25 million paycheck is said to have been offered.

Although the little blacksmith is still not as good as Captain Sparrow, with the current development trend, Christian Bale will have a wider road in the future, and it will be difficult for Johnny Depp to get rid of the image of the captain.

Fortunately, Johnny Depp still has Tim Burton. This good friend likes to bring Johnny Depp with him no matter what he shoots.

As for Keira Knightley, the British actress was largely insulated from big commercial productions after the King Arthur box office disaster.

Whether it is active or passive, she has to work hard in the independent film circle for a long time.

This player also belongs to the kind who played a good hand and played badly in the end. He was far from reaching the height expected by the industry and the media.

Having said that, the British media not only like to praise the British in football, but also in the film industry. Whenever a British actress can make her mark in Hollywood, she can't wait to be called the British Rose.

If you just look at the reports on Fleet Street, you will find that Britain is full of geniuses and supernovas everywhere.

By the third part, the film has completely changed from the situation of the three protagonists to Captain Jack Sparrow as the absolute protagonist.

This is not specifically requested, but determined by the market.

After several years of unremitting efforts, coupled with the stimulation of the upcoming release of Pirates of the Caribbean 3, this series finally surpassed Peppa Pig and became the most profitable series of relativity entertainment.

The combined global box office of the first two films is close to 2 billion US dollars. Peripheral products including DVDs are making a lot of money for Relativity Entertainment every day. Adding in various copyright revenues, the cumulative total has reached 1.5 billion US dollars.

Among all peripheral products, Captain Jack Sparrow is the most popular. Now no one can deny that Captain Jack Sparrow is one of the biggest elements of the film's success.

Relativity Entertainment will naturally take the market as the leading factor and make necessary adjustments.

Facts have also proved that there is no problem with this strategy.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 opened in North America for the first weekend, that is, in 4410 theaters, it got a box office of 137.56 million US dollars.

Since the film was released simultaneously around the world, the global box office reached 321.36 million US dollars in the first weekend!

But the film has a long way to go to make money alone, after all, the production cost reached a series-high $230 million.

Due to the pre-signed trilogy contract, the director and actors are restricted from unlimited increase in remuneration.

Especially Johnny Depp, whose salary for the third part is only 15 million US dollars.

As we all know, the biggest advantage of a long-term contract is that it allows the production company to limit the star's crazy bids in the sequel movie.

The remuneration of the leading actors in the sequels of most popular movies cannot be measured by normal market value at all. The most typical ones are Johnny Depp and Robert Downey Jr.

There's no way these two would have been paid $90 million and $75 million in any other film.

Relativity Entertainment's total investment in Pirates of the Caribbean 3 is as high as 300 million US dollars, and the global box office must reach 1 billion US dollars in order to ensure that the cost can be recovered through the theater box office.

Profit can only rely on peripheral channels.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 not only needs a good start, but also needs to ensure popularity and continue to attract people's attention.

After the box office of the third film was released in the first week, Embassy Pictures reached a licensing agreement with Unilever. Unilever won the five-year license of the Pirates of the Caribbean series on toothpaste and soap at a price of US$50 million.

Subsequently, Unilever announced that it would develop Captain Jack Sparrow toothpaste.

The news had just been announced, and Johnny Depp directly expressed his dissatisfaction.

At a promotional announcement of the film, the reporter asked: Now there are many products sold under the banner of Pirates of the Caribbean. Do you think it's too outrageous and want to stop it?

Johnny Depp went straight to the rant: If I say it, I'm going to talk about personal hygiene products, they don't look right. Like 'Captain Jack' toothpaste, and people with gold teeth sell toothpaste? It's like A bald man who sells shampoo.

Although Johnny Depp vehemently objected, it had no effect on Relativity Entertainment's license.

Ronan reckons that Relativity Entertainment and Johnny Depp have grown tired of seeing each other after the incident in Australia.

The night Johnny Depp made these remarks, his agent, Tracy Jacobs, contacted Ronan and solemnly expressed his apologies. Ronan didn't say anything, but asked her to take care of Johnny Depp. Pu's mouth.

This little thing won't make him do anything against Johnny Depp, but Johnny Depp can't control his mouth and spouts everywhere, which affects the income of Relativity Entertainment. Even if he doesn't do it, someone below will take the initiative shot.

It's really not difficult at all to make Johnny Depp as embarrassed as Tom Cruise was.

Johnny Depp's black material is no less than Tom Cruise's.

But doing so is not good for Relativity Entertainment. After all, Relativity Entertainment also borrows Depp to sell various pirate peripherals.

Ronan has also seriously considered, if planning Pirates of the Caribbean 4, will he still cooperate with Johnny Depp?

The contract between the two parties has expired, and Johnny Depp definitely dares to ask for a salary of 50 million US dollars plus all kinds of messy additional terms...

Perhaps, we can only wait for Johnny Depp to fail a few times and clear his mind before thinking about this issue.

The Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy is complete, and the formation of Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow has gradually settled down.

With the end of the trilogy, the main creative team of Pirates of the Caribbean also fell apart, and most of them ended their cooperation with Relativity Entertainment.

Gore Verbinski joins Paramount Pictures for The Weatherman alongside Nicolas Cage.

Although Johnny Depp is afraid of Ronan's power, he will say a few words of dissatisfaction with Relativity Entertainment from time to time, and the relationship between the two parties is swinging back and forth on the brink of rupture.

Christian Bale is very popular, he can get 20 million US dollars + salary, and at the same time, there is no lack of project selection. The newly confirmed starring Terminator 4 has a production budget of 200 million US dollars. Twentieth Century Fox has high hopes .

The case of Keira Knightley is obvious. The disastrous box office failure of King Arthur has caused Hollywood to have great doubts about her commercial value. Relativity Entertainment is no exception. It is impossible to cooperate with Keira Knightley in the future Big-budget commercial film project.

During the Independence Day holiday, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 dominated the North American film market. In the following weekend, other films were still terrified. Only Fox Searchlight's Little Miss Sunshine was released on a large scale.

Of course, no one can count on how good the box office of this kind of low-cost independent film is. After all, the audience and the scale of publicity and distribution investment are here. to threaten.

But among low-cost films, the market response of Little Miss Sunshine is quite brilliant.

In its first week of release in North America, the film grossed $7.37 million in nearly 1,600 theaters.

According to the estimates of the public, the North American box office of Little Miss Sunshine is very likely to exceed 50 million US dollars.

Compared with the production cost of less than ten million US dollars, it can undoubtedly be included in the genre of small and big.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 topped the North American box office chart with US$57.24 million. Including the income from the previous Independence Day holiday, the cumulative North American box office has reached US$238.94 million.

Overseas, the popularity of the film continues to rise, and the global box office is already approaching 500 million US dollars.

The final global box office will most likely exceed $1 billion.

Like the previous two films, Relativity Entertainment is enough to recover all the costs through the single channel of the theater box office.

At the same time, the North American box office of Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta is close to 200 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office has exceeded 400 million U.S. dollars.

This big-budget movie with a unique style has already generated a lot of money through the box office.

Not only male audiences, the film also won the support of a large number of female audiences.

Even many people regret that the scale is still too small.

This also reminded Ronan of the same type of work on a larger scale.
