"Venom?"

Ding Cheng returned to New York, met the producer from Columbia, and brought a Marvel script?

"I think this role is especially suitable for you. The producer said sincerely: "The first villain superhero in history, the performance space is far more expansive than that of Aquaman!"

Ding Cheng nodded, read the script quickly, very interesting setting, superheroes are no longer full of justice, but most of the time they are wet, poor, girlfriends run away with people, and they are fired for their righteousness?

Especially when you see the renderings, it's simply a version of Spider-Man with teeth and claws?

"I can see a lot of comedic talent in you, especially City Hunter, this role is really suitable for you!"

This sentence completely moved Ding Cheng, he has filmed so many scenes, and the comedy genre is really only a handful, you can try it.

Sending the producer away, Su Yao read the script and said curiously: "This alien thing seems to have appeared in Spider-Man?"

Ding Cheng nodded, as if he was also a little impressed, after all, he was not a fan of American comics, except for Superman and Batman, he didn't know much about anything else, and it seemed that he was really looking for a senior professional to popularize science.

"Penguin has also invested?" Yao Zai finished reading all the information and said with a smile: "The cost of 60 million US dollars is full, and 10 million is your salary, okay?"

Ding Cheng didn't speak, for the Hollywood blockbuster market that now exceeds 100 million at every turn, especially the superhero series, it is indeed a low-cost work.

But I have a feeling,

This script has a lot of potential!

According to the script, the first half is a literary drama, and the main highlight is that the protagonist is a middle-aged dick, all kinds of bad luck and various pits, until he encounters alien possession, he starts to counterattack.

What attracts me the most is not the plot, but the character design, Venom, as a villain hero, is not handsome, not cool, and even the three views are not very correct.

Especially looking at the renderings, it is very cheap and shameless, plus the comedy style, it is definitely a role that I have never challenged.

Pick it up!

Idle is also idle, I have eaten the sweetness of Aquaman, Hollywood is still the world of commercial blockbusters, other heroes already have masters, only new heroes can go off the beaten path and fight a bloody road.

found a few senior American comics, popularized the plot from scratch, and finally understood that the so-called venom is not a human in the first place, it is a black and slimy alien organism, the scientific name is symbiote.

On the one hand, it draws energy from the host, and on the other hand, the host obtains powerful energy from the symbiote. Humans who have successfully merged with the symbiote have greatly improved their strength and bounce power, and they are also first-class in climbing walls and trees.

Secondly, Venom is not a person, it has parasitized many people and creatures successively. Each parasite learns some essence from the previous host, and retains this trait to pass on to the next host.

The host is different, the energy that the symbiote can exert is also different, only if the spirit and the body fit perfectly, the symbiote will be happier, and once the host is a weak chicken, it will be disliked by the symbiote.

Initially parasitic for the first time, the moment when the positive and negative superheroes are in a big smash fight. Deadpool's clothes are torn, and the Hulk picks up a tailoring machine from space that can help people make clothes, hiding the fragments of the symbiote of Venom.

As soon as Deadpool reached out, a black mass enveloped him. It made Deadpool even more angry, and eight hands grew out of his back, and even the little bitch couldn't help but sigh, "Wow! I feel like I can shoot my ass!"

The diligent and studious Venom absorbs Deadpool's negative energy, but listening to Deadpool's complaints all day long, he can't stand it, but fortunately, Deadpool is also afraid of bringing bad students, so he takes off the symbiote with interest.

After Deadpool undressed, Spider-Man's suit was torn, so he picked up the symbiote suit.

He put on his clothes and turned into a strong black Spider-Man. And Venom also gains Spider-Man's ability to squirt spider silk.

After Spider-Man put on the suit, it didn't take a while for him to find out that the clothes were alive?

And the frustration value of this dress is off the charts, and it is not positive at all. So he abandoned it decisively, and the unlucky baby became a street child again.

It was the turn of the third actor in the script, and Ding Cheng realized that this work was just an unwilling dick, but it was definitely much darker in the comics.

Originally a reporter, but unfortunately his ability and clues are not good, and he has always been an intern.

Finally, one day, a serial killer called him and wanted to reveal his mental journey. With this, he made a big news and became a hot official employee of the newspaper.

But soon the bad guy was caught by Spider-Man. Sadness found out that the interview was not the villain himself at all, but a greasy otaku, who was fired and lost his job when the matter was revealed, so he poured all his resentment on Spider-Man.

After Spider-Man defeated Venom for the first time, sales soared, so Venom also existed in the Marvel Universe as a classic character, both good and evil. It has also been issued as a single book.

Among Venom's previous hosts, he played the most suitable role as a good friend, but unfortunately he finally suffered from cancer, so he had no choice but to continue to look for the next host.

Later, he also parasitized the most positive Red Hulk...... Groot, Guardians of the Galaxy...... Even The Flash......

After sorting out the past and present lives, Ding Cheng felt that this thing was like a virus on the earth. They are all living beings who can change the host's abilities, but they cannot survive on their own.

Especially in recent years, anti-hero routines have become popular, and decent audiences are tired of watching it, especially the B-grade film "Deadpool" has been successful in testing the waters, and found that the reviews are also good, so more villains who were not welcomed before ushered in spring.

In Ding Cheng's view, anti-heroes are actually heroes, but they are more contradictory in their hearts, but they are more real. There are many similar characters in Chinese history, often referred to as heroes.

This kind of character is more in line with real life, not only comic book companies like Marvel DC, but Mr. Kinoshita in the popular "House of Cards" in recent years is a complete antihero.

Qi Tongwei in the name of the people, the bad is charming, and the extenuating is ruthlessly satirical and critical of the existing system.

Even "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which was popular a few years ago, actually has the shadow of an anti-hero.

After ten years of grinding in the Marvel era, today's superhero movies have begun to actively seek artistic attributes and personal expression beyond the traditional narrative framework of heroes with a thousand faces.

Under the R-rated scale, "Wolverine 3" can bring more adult content and depth, "Deadpool" can make the and pee of comic book characters jump to the screen, and under the PG-13 rating, there are also typical representatives such as "Wonder Woman" and "Guardians of the Galaxy" that give full play to the charm of the original text and organically combine it with contemporary elements.

In the past 20 years, with the expansion of CG blockbusters, the Hollywood film market has also undergone earth-shaking changes: from the 90s, the market for romantic comedies and cop action movies that excelled at small fights has shrunk sharply, science fiction films have shifted from philosophy to visual kei, and even degenerated into a weak background for B-grade action movies.

The rapidly rising teen fantasy movies in the post-Harry Potter era, which has become a new growth point in the market, are popular adaptations of IP-oriented comics.

After understanding the background, Ding Cheng began to study the form of comedy, the director is Reuben of "Zombie Land", and many screenwriters have experience in writing Sony comedies, which is a highlight.

This time, I also wanted to add more physical performance to the character, which is not only my best field, but also can enhance the comedic effect.

Because it was originally a route of cheap and cute funny, the more exaggerated the funnier, and the greater the stimulation for the audience.
