Chapter 112: Bringing the Character to Life

Under the close attention of the United States, "Spider-Man" finally started.

Spider-Man comic book fans are eagerly looking forward to it, and of course, in Hollywood, they are more in the mindset of watching jokes.

Donn's successive successes have made many filmmakers who have struggled in Hollywood for decades resentful. It is difficult for them to tolerate a kid who has been rising for two or three years, climbs faster than them, and has a higher status than them.

With Donne's recent "faint moves" stacked up, they finally had a chance to watch jokes.

Regarding the views of the outside world, Tang En has always responded with an attitude of not responding, not refuting, and waiting to see what happens.

Watching Spider-Man jokes?

Hehe, I'm afraid you're the biggest joke!

The crew rented a physics lab at the University of California and began filming the first scene.

"Peter!" In front of the laboratory building, "Harry Osborne", played by Tobey Maguire, stepped out of a Rolls-Royce.

"Hi Harry, how are you?"

"Spider-Man" Peter Parker wears a pair of black-framed glasses, slightly wooden, and looks at the mountains like a nerd.

James Franco was originally a top student in school, so he played a nerd with a bit of charm.

"Harry, you forgot your backpack. ”

"Oh, thank you!" Harry Osborne glanced at Peter Parker and introduced, "Peter, this is my father, Norman Osborne. ”

Playing "Norman Osborne" is the well-known actor Willem Dafoe, who politely shook hands with Peter, "I often hear him mention you." ”

Peter Parker looked shy, "Nice to meet you, sir." ”

"Harry said you are very good at science. Norman Osborne smiled kindly, "You know, I'm also a scientist. ”

"I've read your research report on nanotechnology, and it's really great. ”

"Oh?" Norman Osborne was a little surprised, "can you read it?"

"Yes, I also wrote a report. ”

"Wow, that's amazing, your parents must be proud of you!" Norman Osborne was amazed at Peter Parker's ingenuity.

"I live with my uncle and aunt. ”

……

"Very good, this is over!"

Don nodded with satisfaction, in fact, this set of shots is quite difficult to shoot, because it is outside the teaching building of the university, and there need to be many extras to act as students and walk around in the background.

If you move around misalignment, it will affect the beauty of the composition and need to be reshot.

In order to shoot this "Spider-Man", Donn once again "mirrored" James Cameron's abilities, just to be able to create better visual effects.

This is supposed to be a popcorn movie to entertain the public, and Don will never pretend to be deep.

But after all, it is the pioneering work of Marvel, and Don did not completely ignore the plot.

In fact, most of the script framework of this movie is based on the original "Spider-Man", but with slight changes in details, adding a lot of jokes and foreshadowing a few characters.

For example, "Spider-Man" Peter Parker's neighbor Brian Braddock, although he has not appeared, Peter Parker and Mary Jane have mentioned it in conversation.

This is another Marvel superhero - Captain Britain.

For example, Peter Parker's classmate, Mary Jane has a good girlfriend named Jessica Jones, which is also a hint. She is a member of the League of Future Defenders, the spouse of Luke Cage, and a female superhero.

The British captain and the Defenders don't have a chance to be on the big screen, but Donn doesn't mind setting up a little more foreshadowing, maybe it can be made into a TV series in the future.

"Director, I need more information to better grasp the role. However, the producer, Ms. Jacobson, said that this was a company secret and it was inconvenient to disclose it. ”

James Franco is obviously not satisfied with the superficial performance, since he signed a ten-film contract with Marvel Studios, he has thought that he must play the role of Spider-Man alive, rather than the stereotyped performance in commercial films.

"Oh?" Donn likes this kind of hard-working actor, "what do you want to know?"

James Franco frowned and said, "I've read all the Spider-Man comics, he's a bit of a talkative, humorous superhero, but you gave me the script...... Something doesn't seem right. ”

"Too shy?" Don looked at him with a smile.

James Franco nodded, "That's the case, it's hard to imagine that Spider-Man doesn't even have the courage to confess to girls, with such a character, can he protect the safety of the people of New York?"

"A superhero is not born a superhero, he needs to grow as well. ”

"I understand, so I need to understand what Spider-Man was like growing up, after all...... The script has changed a bit big, and it's not quite the same as the manga. ”

Don understood what he meant, this is to grasp the role of "Spider-Man" in commercial films as a role in literary films.

Robert Downey Jr. brought Iron Man to life, looking at James Franco in front of him, Don suddenly had a feeling, maybe...... Can he also become synonymous with Spider-Man?

"Actually, it's not a trade secret, it's just that the script for the sequel hasn't been written, everything is my personal idea, and Nina doesn't know. ”

"Can I know a little bit about that? I think...... This is important for my performance, and I need more information to grasp the psychological changes in Spider-Man. ”

Don nodded, concise and to the point, "Three movies are Spider-Man's three stages of life growth. The first growth is our movie, called 'The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility'. In the second part, Spider-Man realized that the meaning of fate is to accept, not to escape, and he began to bravely accept his identity and love bravely. In the third part, Spider-Man completed his transformation, becoming cheerful and outgoing, confident, and talkative, completing the stereotype of this character. and engaged to Mary Jane to draw a complete end to this trilogy. ”

James Franco was a little stunned, "That's it......? Didn't I sign a contract for ten films?"

Don smiled dumbly, "It's enough luxury to use a trilogy to depict the growth of Spider-Man, and this kind of movie in the future ...... The main thing is the direction of easy entertainment, after all, there are too many superheroes, and it is impossible for every character to return to himself, the main thing is to entertain the public. ”

At this time, Jessica Alba walked over, waved at James Franco first, and then leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Nicole sent a message just now, saying that Natalie was crying." ”

"What?"

Jessica was startled and hurriedly said, "I said it was when I was making a movie...... Director Mendes's request, she was a little unacceptable. ”

"Sam Mendes!"

Tang En gritted his teeth angrily and dared to bully Natalie, that was his reverse scale.

Jessica hurriedly explained again and said in a low voice: "Director Mendes said that in order to make the characters more distinct, let Natalie and Nicole add a kiss scene, and everyone thinks it is feasible, but Natalie can't accept it. ”

"Huh?"

Tang En's anger was like pouring a basin of ice water on his head, and he was stunned.

If Natalie and the actor were to kiss, Don would definitely be furious, but the other party was Nicole Kidman, which ...... It doesn't seem like it's too much.

"For the sake of the movie. Don coughed lightly a few times to hide the embarrassment on his face, "Since Nat didn't contact me, it means that it's still within her acceptable range, it's okay, let Nicole rest assured, just act." ”

This naturally has some selfish motives on the part of Donne.

Letting Natalie reduce some of his rejection of women, saying that it is not right will make his life easier in the future......
