Chapter 798: Drunken Life and Dream Death (The First Update for the Alliance Leader ┆ Bailian ┆ Plus)
The Independence Day holiday, one of the best schedules in the North American film market, tends to have a lot of movies released in the weekend before Independence Day.
In an independent day schedule a few years ago, there were four or five films with a production cost of more than 80 million.
This year is different, except for "A Fairy Wife" produced and distributed by Columbia Pictures, other commercial films with higher investment have avoided the Independence Day schedule.
Because "Pirates of the Caribbean" is hot again.
Due to the huge sensation caused by the first part, Captain Jack Sparrow is invincible, and the industry is unanimously optimistic that "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" will not only be a big hit, but also a super hit.
In the same schedule, the only competitor of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" is "A Fairy Wife" starring Nicole Kidman.
The genres of the two films are completely different, and Sony Columbia Pictures has no intention of circumventing Pirates of the Caribbean 2.
But the momentum of the two is very different.
Since the trailer was released, "A Fairy Wife" has continued to attract criticism, and the vicious curse of the Oscar-winning actress has always been entangled in the film.
"Pirates of the Caribbean 2" has caused a lot of heat, and fans seem to be impatient.
Countless fans have shared their expectations for "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and Captain Jack Sparrow in various ways on Netflix.
"What kind of man is Captain Sparrow?"
Someone asked a question on the Netflix share, and the related questions quickly spread all over the Internet.
More questions about Captain Jack Sparrow poured out of the fans.
"What do you do if you fall in love with Captain Jack Sparrow?"
"Is Will Turner really liked by Jack Sparrow, or Elizabeth Swan?"
Questions like this are relatively normal, and some fans even regard Captain Jack Sparrow as a real-life idol.
"What brand of perfume does Captain Jack Sparrow wear?"
"What does the captain eat three times a day, and will he go hungry at sea?"
"Will he get sepsis from malnutrition?"
"I heard that the bread eaten by sailors in the Middle Ages was not bad for several years, but as a result, weevils and maggots were born in the bread, which is called walking with maggots. Captain Jack won't eat these too, will he?"
Such a question may seem funny, but it is not unusual at all to put it on fans.
When a fictional movie character is frequently brought into reality, it already shows that the character, and the movies about it, are achieving great success.
Before Jack Sparrow, there had never been a movie protagonist who could become popular in such a riotous way, laughing and scolding his teammates every day, and having such a role at critical moments, but he could still be so charming.
This role also really put Johnny Depp on the front line.
But Hollywood is a highly circulating circle after all, and some things can't be covered at all, and during the promotion of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", there has been some unfavorable news about Johnny Depp circulating in the media and online.
Even, someone shared and asked through Netflix: If Captain Jack Sparrow wasn't played by Johnny Depp, would you still love Johnny Depp?
However, the temporary impact is still small.
At the premiere, Johnny Depp faced the fans and showed his charm to the fullest.
It seems that Johnny Depp is still the same Johnny Depp, who has not changed in any way because of Jack Sparrow's popularity, is still signed, loves rock and roll, is cool and friendly, and acts as casually as Captain Jack.
Regardless, Johnny Depp is absolutely impeccable when it comes to treating fans.
This is a passionate idol who can't stop signing autographs for fans even when he goes out to strengthen.
Ronan looked at Johnny Depp, who caused a sensation on the red carpet, and could only say that the captain's charm was too great.
It's the same as it used to be.
The difference is that Will Turner, whose presence was once severely compressed, is now extremely popular.
When Christian Bale walked on the red carpet, he caused no less sensation than Johnny Depp.
First, this version of the little blacksmith has a stronger presence, and the character and image are more prominent, and second, "Batman: Time to War" has been released, and Christian Bale has the halo effect bonus of Lord Wayne.
"Hello, Ronan. Christian Bale took the initiative to come over and greet Ronan: "Long time no see." ”
Ronan shook his hand and said, "You look a lot stronger." ”
Christian Bale said with a smile: "The filming of "Deadly Magic" is over, director Nolan is in post-production, and I am going to be the most prepared for "The Dark Knight". ”
Ronan nodded slightly: "That's a very aggrieved Batman." ”
"It's fine. Christian Bale answered: "It just feels a little weird to read the script, Bruce Wayne seems to have become a supporting character, the protagonist is the Joker, and the Joker has various protagonist halos......"
Ronan shrugged: "Regarding the character, you still have to communicate with Director Nolan." ”
It can be seen that Christian Bale is somewhat dissatisfied with the design of the script.
This is not a roundabout complaining to him, the producer.
But if you don't add a halo to the Joker, don't add restrictions to Batman, the so-called strongest ugly man would have been hammered to death ten thousand times.
In fact, it is very obvious that this movie adds the halo of the protagonist to the Joker.
In addition to the stars who participated in the movie, there were also many relatives and friends of the actors who came to attend the premiere.
For example, Tim Burton is also here.
Although the two sides did not agree on a collaboration on Alice in Wonderland, they did not become enemies.
Moreover, with the relationship between Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, it is too normal for Tim Burton to want to bring Johnny Depp as the leading actor in the movie he directed.
Ronan also had a chat with Tim Burton.
The "Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy has been filmed, Johnny Depp has also ended his collaboration with Relativity Entertainment, and Tim Burton intends to continue working with Johnny Depp on a film called "Sweeney Todd".
The first movie the two collaborated on was called "Edward Scissorhands", 27-year-old Johnny Depp and 32-year-old Tim Burton have since become good friends, and please give more advice for the rest of their lives.
When the first movie was filmed, Ronan heard John Depp, who was still more dedicated at the time, talk about his relationship with Tim Burton.
Regarding the speculation of the two, Johnny Depp said: "Even when we met for the first time, we agreed on even the most ridiculous issues. ”
Perhaps, this is called love at first sight.
Suddenly there was an argument in the VIP room of the theater, and Jessica Felton immediately rushed over and pressed down Christian Bale and Keira Knightley, who were arguing with Johnny Depp.
Since the sequel began filming, the contradictions between the two British actors and Johnny Depp have become more and more acute, and at one point it was difficult to adjust.
Fortunately, Jessica Felton as a producer, plus it is in public, can still suppress these contradictions.
"What's going on?" Ronan came to Jessica Felton's side: "Although Bell has inexplicable emotions when shooting, he is usually a quiet person. ”
Jessica Filton didn't walk the red carpet or wear an evening gown, she was dressed in a concise women's professional suit, her face was tight, and she was very strong woman: "Kayla smelled Depp smelling of alcohol, so she complained to Bell, but Depp heard it, and then there was an argument. ”
She whispered, "It's just a little trouble. ”
Ronan sighed, "There are too many people ruined by alcohol. ”
Jessica Felton stood next to Ronan, looked at Johnny Depp, and said, "How long can you succeed when you are drunk?"
Ronan shook his head slightly: "As a bystander, it is difficult for us to judge whether he is right or wrong, maybe there is no right or wrong in a person's lifestyle." He lives arbitrarily, probably fans just love this drunken dream and death is different. ”
"It's not like what you say. Jessica Felton was surprised.
Ronan asked, "What shall I say?"
Jessica Filton groaned a little and said seriously: "First of all, consider how much Depp's behavior will bring. Secondly, how much value Depp can create for Relativity Entertainment in the future. Then, squeeze the ...... clean"
Ronan pointed to himself, "Am I like that?"
Jessica Felton deliberately said, "Absolutely. ”
"Okay. Ronan laughed at himself: "This shows that I am already a very successful entrepreneur and capitalist." ”
Jessica Filton joked, "So how much am I worth in your eyes?"
Ronan shrugged: "Jesse, you're different, you're my partner." ”
Jessica Filton has known Ronan for many years, and of course knows that this is true, and said: "By the way, there is another thing, I am going to take out all my savings, and when Netflix is listed to buy Netflix shares, I won't go bankrupt, right?"
Ronan emphasized: "Netflix is as reliable as Ronan Anderson. ”
"Somebody's coming. Jessica Felton reminded: "Charlize Theron. ”
Charlize Theron and Candace Swaneple came over to say hello to Ronan,
Both of them have a partnership with Relativity Entertainment.
In the ongoing filming of "Survival in the Wild", Bell Grylls will invite guests to join him on wild adventures in several episodes of the second season, one of which is Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron.
Needless to say, Candace Swanepel has already passed the audition for "Life and Death Fight", even if it's just a small role.
"I'm preparing for the shoot. Charlize Theron said to Ronan: "I watched one of Bale's shoots, and although there was a script and a support team, it was really amazing. To achieve the desired results, I need to be fit enough and have some professional knowledge. ”
Ronan smiled and said, "Sally, I'm looking forward to seeing your performance. ”
