Chapter 936: Fur Madness

In addition to "A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones", Ronan also received good news that David Fincher has decided to take over the position of director and producer of "House of Cards" after careful consideration and persuasion from Shahai Entertainment to put money and tell the facts, and will soon form a shooting and production team himself.

Shahai Entertainment also extended an invitation to Kevin Spacey.

The former Oscar winner for Best Actor, who has just experienced the commercial fiasco of "Superman Returns", is at a low point in his salary and career, and has agreed to audition for the series in the face of this extremely sincere invitation.

In addition, the first choice for the heroine will be the famous actress Jennifer Connelly.

Ang Lee's version of "The Hulk" had a huge negative impact, not only for himself, but also for the male and female leads, and the film almost ruined the commercial film fortunes of Eric Barna and Jennifer Connery.

Shahai Entertainment contacted his wife Jennifer Connelly through Paul Betany, who starred in "The Da Vinci Code", although there are many large-scale scenes in the script, but for an actor like Jennifer Connelly, it is not a matter at all.

When she was young, Jennifer Connelly was very beautiful, especially in "Once Upon a Time in America", I don't know how many people were moved, but as she grew older, her face seemed to become sharper and sharper, and she lost the innocent beauty she had when she was young.

This is just the right fit to play a strong woman like Claire Underwood.

The rest of the roles will be solved through auditions after David Fincher forms the crew.

The style of this show, Ronan and David Fincher have long reached a consensus, and they will describe the political figures and political operations in the dark.

The fact that the Washington authorities are in the dark is the consensus of the American people.

Another major play, The Walking Dead, has reached the filming stage, and director Drew Gundam led the crew to Georgia for on-location shooting.

Drew Gouda and Joss Wheddon, who recommended him, also had an idea for a horror movie, but the specifics weren't on paper yet, and they didn't have time to write the script until the two finished their respective projects.

Other series, such as "Shameless", "Hannah Montana", "American Horror Story" and "The Big Bang Theory", etc., Netflix has placed orders with Shahai Entertainment, including the previous ones, which will be launched on Netflix streaming from the second half of the year.

These include those that have already been launched on streaming media, as long as the word-of-mouth response is good, it will be filmed season after season, and Netflix streaming will have sufficient exclusive broadcast resources in the next few years.

On the youth project, due to the collection of a large amount of material, the first draft of the script of a youth drama series in the horror and thriller genre was also completed, and at Ronan's suggestion, the series was tentatively named "Stranger Things".

Horror themes have always had no shortage of audiences in North America, and Wen Ziren, a horror master, broke out with tremendous creative enthusiasm after officially joining Relativity Entertainment, and it only took more than half a year to prepare and complete the filming of the first season of "American Horror Story", which is currently in post-production, and will definitely meet the audience in the second half of the year.

After the completion of this series, Wen Ziren will only serve as one of the producers in the future, and his main focus will be fully turned to the filming and construction of the horror movie universe.

He plans to prepare the first "Latent" this year, and strive to release the film around Halloween next year, that is, 2007.

For Wen Ziren, Ronan gave enough support.

No one in Hollywood knows better than him how much value Wen Ziren, a young Chinese director, has.

Horror films are almost all small and broad, with a production budget of more than $10 million to $20 million in horror movies, and box office sales of $150 million often appear, and then counting the offline income, the profits of a small investment horror film are even top of many directors' first-line commercial productions.

And Wen Ziren's talent is not limited to horror films.

In terms of commercial value alone, in Ronan's eyes, Wen Ziren is no weaker than Christopher Nolan.

Shahai Entertainment has concluded negotiations with the Nolan brothers, and the two sides will work together again on the sci-fi project called "Foundation" after "Deadly Magic", with an expected production investment of up to $150 million.

Perhaps it was the collaboration with Christian Bale that tasted the sweetness, and Christopher Nolan made it clear that he hopes to continue working with big-name stars who are dedicated enough.

Ronan had a general relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio, just like "The Departed", and he didn't think about inviting Leonardo to play the leading role.

He's already communicated with Christopher Nolan, and Tom Cruise and Will Smith can let Nolan pick whatever they want.

The two are also interested in continuing their collaboration with Relativity Entertainment.

Both Tom Cruise and Will Smith are dedicated enough, and their market appeal is unquestionable.

The biggest difference between the two is not the difference in skin color.

Tom Cruise is alone, and since his divorce from Nicole Kidman, he has no plans to get married.

But Will Smith is different, although the marriage with Jada Smith has become a formality, and the husband and wife do not ask each other about each other's private lives, but they are quite dutiful fathers.

Will Smith has always wanted to bring a son or daughter with him.

Of course, Ronan can't say anything about this kind of thing, after all, they are father and son.

Will Smith's star fall once had a lot to do with his later transformation into a Fall Maniac.

From a father's point of view, Will Smith is definitely a good and dutiful father.

After 2010, many people said that the Hollywood actor circle belonged to the second generation of stars, and countless second generations of stars rose one after another.

But Jaden Smith is not in this ranks, Will Smith has invested so many resources that he almost even got into his acting career, and Jaden Smith, who has a super high starting point, is getting worse and worse.

This one is even gradually getting closer to the son of Magic Johnson.

Compared with the son of Magic Johnson, the three thousand gold in Tyson's family is not worth mentioning.

Someone once joked that maybe one day, Jaden Smith would get together with this Johnson......

On the first weekend of June, Embassy Pictures released another film.

The collaboration between Relativity Entertainment and DreamWorks Animation Studios came to the last installment - "Shrek 3".

DreamWorks was jubilant, with Spielberg and Jereif Katzenberg all in attendance for the premiere.

The two DreamWorks supergiants seem to have reached an internal power distribution agreement, and DreamWorks Animation Studios has officially announced that after ending its cooperation with Relativity Entertainment, its animated feature films will fully return to DreamWorks.

"I sincerely hope that DreamWorks will continue to grow. ”

In the premiere of the Hollywood Oriental Theater, Ronan said to the two people sincerely: "Steven, Jerryvor, I think Hollywood has reached a critical period of change, and the backwater-like pattern also needs to be injected with new vitality." ”

DreamWorks has been carrying the pressure of Paramount Pictures, and needs Relativity Entertainment to share the attention from other companies, Relativity Entertainment is preparing for the future of Twentieth Century Fox, and it also needs DreamWorks to disperse its firepower.

Spielberg said: "We're always on the same page, and hopefully in the future Hollywood won't be the Big Six. ”

Jared Katzenberg continued: "Ronan, DreamWorks and Relativity Entertainment are comrades-in-arms, there is no fundamental conflict of interest, and our eyes should be on the conservative traditional forces. ”

Spielberg also said, "They are the oppressors who are holding us back." ”

The two may not have realized it before, but now that the Walt Disney shareholders' meeting has been over for more than half a year, although Michael Eisner has successfully stayed in office, Disney's civil strife has not stopped, but because of the entry of the third-party force Maple Leaf Pictures, the intensity of the infighting has intensified.

How did this third party get into Walt Disney? Ronan Anderson single-handedly pushed it in!

People like Spielberg and Jared Katzenberg, who have carefully studied the Walt Disney situation and are familiar with Ronan, have recognized that it was Ronan who single-handedly pushed Walt Disney into the quagmire, and he may not be able to struggle for years.

By the time Walt Disney struggles out, Hollywood will still be where it is now.

Spielberg had already agreed with Jared Katzenberg that with the resources at Ronan Anderson's disposal, it would be disastrous for DreamWorks if it were to be targeted.

These two are courting Ronan and Relativity Entertainment.

Ronan smiled and said to the two, "Relativity Entertainment and DreamWorks have always been allies, they were, they are, and they will still be in the future. ”

This kind of scene, he said it very beautifully, in fact, it also represents an attitude, Relativity Entertainment will no longer regard DreamWorks as an opponent now.

As for DreamWorks Animation Studios, frankly speaking, Relativity Entertainment's major animation studios, including Pixar Studios, Shahai Entertainment Animation Studios, and Princess Animation Studios, which have inherited the fine tradition of Disney animation, will also need competitors in the future.

Ronan goes somewhere else, and the two DreamWorks giants who have put aside their power struggle for the time being are whispering.

The credibility of this statement is still relatively high. After all, Jerif Katzenberg and Ronan were in close contact at one time: "In the short term, Relativity Entertainment will not be able to pay attention to DreamWorks. ”

Spielberg couldn't agree more: "The scale of DreamWorks is no longer in the eyes of relativity entertainment." ”

The two had speculated that Relativity Entertainment wanted to go one step further and target only one of the six major companies.

Katzenberg said, "When are you going to fulfill your contract with Relativity Entertainment?"

Spielberg said: "The original book has been given to me, about the political type of Abraham Lincoln, Shahai Entertainment is writing the script, this is a realistic political theme, it may take a long time." ”

"Live-action films, relativistic entertainment is strong enough. "In terms of animated films, they also have a scary future," Katzenberg said. ”

Spielberg sighed: "Pixar Studios ......"

Katzenberg shook his head slightly: "Not only Pixar Studio, but also the newly established Princess Animation Studio. ”
