Robert Iger, the helmsman of Disney, said: I am personally very happy to see Lan Li Hall join the Marvel family. ”

……
One after another, the news about the "Burst Drummer" gradually began to increase, and as time progressed, it gained more and more attention and attention, and became the best hot topic in March in one fell swoop, triggering wave after wave of heated discussions, which spread widely on social networks.
But the heat wave was far from its peak, and when the "American Weekly" broke the scoop for the first time, it really stirred up the storm and succeeded in gathering all the attention firmly.
"The Blue Rite-Hall production project, the six major Hollywood studios compete together! Bayonets are red! Go head-to-head!"
Hollywood's Big 6 studios?
Such a grand occasion can definitely be said to have not been seen for many years, not to mention that all the six major have come forward, and any film project can attract two or three companies to compete one after another, which is already very rare, after all, there are not 10,000 or 8,000 projects waiting to be developed and produced in the entire Hollywood, and there is no need to squeeze your head in one project.
Now, Gavin Hunter of "Us Weekly" has exclusively broken the news.
Although the title is exclusive, it is actually not very accurate, twenty-five minutes before the "American Weekly" manuscript was uploaded, the TMZ website had already taken the lead in breaking the news, pushing this wave to a high/tide -
"Join the fray! Focus Pictures has made an official offer and joined the competition for the production rights and distribution rights of 'Burst Drummer'!"
In the battle for the "Burst Drummer", five of Hollywood's six major studios have taken action one after another, but Universal Pictures has been slow to act, and after nearly a month of silence, Universal's Focus Pictures finally couldn't bear it anymore and officially joined the melee.
Focus Pictures and Fox Searchlight are separate subsidiaries that are owned by Universal Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox, respectively, but they have their own systems of operations and independent leadership, and they do not influence each other's decisions. Ultimately, though, the relationship between subsidiaries and parent companies is different, and strategic mutual assistance is as common as New Line Pictures is to Warner Bros.
In the case of "Burst Drummer", Universal Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox are the same, and the subsidiaries are more suitable and competitive than the parent company. After Fox Searchlight joined the battle, Focus Pictures has not moved, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ron Mayer and Universal Pictures' future development framework is still more or less influential.
Now, according to the TMZ website, Focus Pictures has finally taken an important step.
According to the report, Lang's decision was the result of careful consideration and struggle, and pressure from Steven Spielberg, Paul Walker, Focus Pictures and competitors finally forced Lang to change his mind and formulate a huge development plan -
"Burst Drummer" is just one of them, with projects like "Jurassic Park: Extinction" and "Fast & Furious 7" starting to kick off in full swing, and even the Luke Hobbs Gaiden project is back on the table.
Universal Pictures, which has never been good at producing and operating sequel projects, finally decided to build a comprehensive three-year plan around Blue Rite as the core, looking forward to the two series "Jurassic Park" and "Fast and Thrill/Emotional" to become their fist projects.
Naturally, Focus Pictures also began to cooperate with the parent company's plan and take the initiative.
However, less than 72 hours after TMZ broke the news, they updated the news again: Ron Meyer was still resistant, refusing to compromise, but under pressure from the board, he was forced to nod and agree to the plan. For now, there are still divisions within Universal Pictures, and Diesel is trying to stir up a muddy water.
Obviously, in the battle of interests, it is still difficult to decide a result in a short period of time. It's just a bloody drama that has just begun, but Universal Pictures has to speed it up, because other studios won't be patient enough to wait for them to clear their minds and then fight it out.
Returning to the original revelations of TMZ, the olive branch of Focus Pictures can be described as a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, and they are the first place to publish the scoop.
But Us Weekly was the first media outlet to comprehensively analyze the battle for the "Burst Drummer," and was only less than 25 minutes behind TMZ, which means that they have been closely following the development of the project, and they have also been the first to know about Focus Pictures' decision, and then wrote the feature as quickly as possible.
This, too, is exclusive.
In the article, Gavin explained the ins and outs of the "Burst Drummer", as well as Damien Chazelle's personal resume, and more importantly, he also asked Lan Li for his personal opinion in a telephone interview, confirming that Lan Li himself attaches great importance and expectations for the project, which is undoubtedly very important information.
Subsequently, Gavin made a detailed list of competitors, in addition to the six major Hollywood studios, many independent film companies have also made moves, hoping to take over the "Burst Drummer" and start the beginning of short-term or long-term cooperation with Lanli, and the competition has reached an unprecedented height.
According to incomplete statistics, at least 14 film companies are now participating in the competition, actively expressing their willingness to cooperate and striving for the production and distribution of the project.
At the moment, Fox Searchlight and Warner Bros. are in the lead, and negotiations and meetings are going very well, while Paramount and Disney are more of a big picture, and innovative artist agencies are in close contact. ”
Just from the literal level, you can really feel the fierceness and hotness of the competition.
In the article, Gavin analyzes:
"As an artistic actor, after a series of works such as 'Love is Crazy' and 'Detachment', Lan Li Hall, who is not yet twenty-four years old, has undoubtedly become a leading figure in the acting skills of the new generation.
As a commercial actor, the myth of profitability in six consecutive works, and then to the North American box office of 500 million in 'Edge of Tomorrow', Lan Li Hall has now become the most appealing actor in the North American market.
As a film industry practitioner, from 'Pacific War' to 'Detachment', as well as 'Gravity' and 'Drunken Folk' now in post-production, Lan Li Hall's precise and discerning eye for film selection is well known.
It is in this context that Hall has become the hottest actor in the North American film industry, and his influence is unparalleled. Naturally, it has caused a phenomenal response throughout the industry. ”
After Gavin's article was published on the official website of "Us Weekly", it quickly received a wide response, and the heated frenzy on Twitter and Facebook almost did not stop, just the sign of "Blue Rite-Hall", which was enough to make the audience report huge expectations, even the most literary and contradictory "detachment", also won a large number of audiences.
In fact, the response from the audience was only the tip of the iceberg, giving the studios a heightened level of expectation and confidence, and an unwavering belief in the success of the production, which further fueled the fierce competition for feedback.
"Fox Searchlight: It's going to be a work that can be compared to 'The Social Network' and 'Black Swan'. ”
"Warner Bros. 10 million dollars! to create a one-of-a-kind 'Popping Drummer.' ”
"Paramount and Innovative Artists Agency have a long-term plan to work together on ten productions, including 'Burst Drummer.' ”
"Sony Pictures has withdrawn from the 'Burst Drummer' competition and is looking forward to Lan Li Hall joining the 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' and joining forces with Andrew Garfield to create a youth version of Spider-Man. ”
"Disney and Andy Rogers are in close talks, with Star Wars as a potential partner and Popping Drummer as a start. ”
"Divisions within Universal Pictures remain, but Focus Pictures' negotiations with Damien Chazelle are on track!"
"Breaking news: Roadside scenery and Lan Li-Hall have reached a consensus and are expected to intercept the 'Burst Drummer' project!"
"Mutation happens: Warner Bros. has entered into a strategic partnership with an innovative artist agency, but it is not yet known whether it will include the 'Burst Drummer' project, and the details are yet to be officially announced. ”
……
It's boiling, it's really boiling, but all media reporters know that they are just standing outside and watching the excitement, and the real negotiation and negotiation process is all in the fog, and everything is unknown before the decision comes out, and they can only chase the wind and shadows, and now all the news is not accurate, because there is no official announcement.
In just one week, the whole of Hollywood was surging, and the tug-of-war of interests of all parties around the "Burst Drummer" project reached incredible heights, not only Andy and Damien, but the matter had risen to the corporate level, and the negotiation process naturally became more difficult.
But all of this doesn't mean anything to Lan Li -
With the exception of Gavin's phone interview, all the other news was fake, and he didn't answer anyone's calls, not even Andy, who didn't communicate anything until the matter was confirmed. Now Lan Li, he is enjoying his vacation through and through.
