Chapter 747: Iron Man
In March, Don will complete the recording of his first album.
Because he had previously released a single, for the sake of the continuation of the singing, genre and musical technique, he once again possessed the ability of "Prince" Prince. At present, the creation of 10 songs has been completed.
Including "Tik_Tok", "Just_give_me_a_reason", "See_you_again", "Bang_bang", "Poker_face", "Fireork" and other hit songs.
Because this album is mainly for the newcomer female singers under Universal Records, Don En chooses most of the songs that are mainly female voices.
Of course, music is just a trail in the entertainment industry.
Movies are the trump card.
After the Oscars, the whole of Hollywood was in action.
Dozens of film projects, starting at the same time.
Among them, there are 5 commercial blockbusters launched by New Globe alone!
They are "Ant-Man 2", "Iron Man", "Daredevil 2", "King Kong" and "Night at the Museum".
In addition, in April, Tim Burton's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" was launched, in May, Ron Howard's "The Da Vinci Code Booted" and Mike Newell's "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" were launched, and in June, Matthew Vaughn's "Thor" was launched.
In July, it was also New Universal's most blockbuster film project of the year - "The Avengers" was launched, and the director ...... Don Walker!
There is no doubt that Marvel Studios occupies the lion's share of several major productions.
However, the preparation of the film was not all smooth sailing.
"Ant-Man 2" and "Daredevil 2" are both mature sequel projects, which can be reassured.
Matthew Vaughn, the director of "Thor", has a ten-year production career, but he has only made one movie "Sandwich Cake". When choosing him as director, there was a controversy within Marvel Studios.
In the end, it was Don who made the decision.
What's even more troublesome is "Iron Man"!
As early as September last year, the project was established, directed by Jon Favreau, starring Robert Downey Jr.
However, with the prosperity and fame of Marvel movies, especially after the launch of "Ant-Man", the popcorn tendency has become more and more serious, and the age of the audience is getting younger and lower.
"Iron Man" will also be a light-hearted and humorous popcorn movie.
However, isn't it good to have an addict with a lot of bad convictions as the starring role?
When the media heard the news that Marvel Studios had chosen Robert Downey Jr. as the leading role, they had strong doubts about it.
Even within Hollywood, there are many people who have secretly hinted to Donne, thinking that it is a wrong choice to promote Robert Downey Jr.
The movie started, and Don made a special trip to the Movie Road in Penang, California, to visit the crew of "Iron Man".
"Bob, how's it going?"
Donne's target, of course, is Robert Downey Jr.
This is a key training object.
Although the Marvel of this life does not need to be saved by Robert Downey Jr. However, the role of "Iron Man" played by him is undoubtedly the most likable and most in line with the public's psychological expectations.
Just like Scarlett Johansson's "Black Widow".
The superheroes they represent are much more popular than actors such as Team America, Hulk, Thor, Ant-Man, and Spider-Man.
Why?
Because Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson are almost the best actors in the main roles of the Avengers universe.
"Everything was ok, thank you. ”
Robert Downey Jr.'s gratitude to Donne comes from the inside out.
Last year, it was Donn's speech when he was awarded the honorary police officer in Los Angeles that moved him and made him determined to quit drugs completely!
Then, good luck came.
He received an invitation from the crew of "Iron Man".
Tang En punched him in the chest and said with a smile: "It seems that I have practiced well in the past few months, and my body is strong enough!"
"It's been a long time since I've been a protagonist, and with such an important project, I'm going to do my best. Robert Downey Jr. took a deep breath and was very polite.
Don nodded and said, "Of course, I believe in you. They don't need to be said in the unexpected media, they are a bunch of ignorant fools. Your performance in the past few months has made me and the entire crew of "Iron Man" feel your belief. The role of Iron Man is tailor-made for you!"
"Thank you. ”
Robert Downey's eyes flashed with excitement.
He knew that his unbearable experience in the past had a very bad impact on the crew.
Originally, director Jon Favreau's important candidate for "Little Pepper" was the new "sweet sister" Rachel McAdams.
As a result, Rachel McAdams was afraid of cooperating with an addict and was afraid of affecting her "sweet sister" image, so she chose to refuse.
That's why Don later accepted Jessica Chastain as "Little Pepper".
Tang En smiled, his eyebrows jumped, "The contract matter, no problem, right?"
Robert Downey Jr. is a big customer!
He will be the ace actor of Marvel Studios in the future!
Then, I heard Robert Downey Jr. excitedly say: "I've always been a big fan of the original Marvel comics, let alone 10 films, if the series will make 15 sequels, I will insist on being Iron Man 15 times!"
Don's face was a little strange.
Looking at the way he swore his oath, if it weren't for Don's prophetic experience, he would almost believe it.
In the "Iron Man" series in the previous life, it was impossible to shoot only "Iron Man 3".
"Iron Man 4" has been in preparation, but it has not been able to start.
Robert Downey Jr. offered a salary of $50 million, plus a shocking salary of 10% of box office profits.
It's too exaggerated, it's even more ruthless than Tom Cruise's "Mission Impossible" series!
Now, it is the lowest point in Robert Downey Jr.'s career, and Marvel Studios can certainly buy the bottom.
According to the convention, it continues to be the overlord clause, like "Spider-Man" James Franco, 10 film contracts, no less!
The salary of $20 million is capped.
Let's talk about locking it up with a contract first.
Hey, acting!
Sure enough, it's an acting actor!
It's a pity, though.
With 10 films pressed on him, Robert Downey Jr. can only wear the invisible cloak of "Iron Man" in his life, and never think about having illusions about Oscars anymore.
The role has been solidified.
Unless she can compete for the Oscar actress by gaining weight, shaving her eyebrows, and pretending to be ugly like Charlize Theron.
is not broken or standing, for many actors whose images are solidified, only by appearing in another unfamiliar image and showing superb acting skills can they impress the judges.
Another example is last year's Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman.
She won the award for "All the Time" because when she performed, she wore a fake nose, which completely changed her inherent glamorous appearance.
Of course, that's all for later.
If Robert Downey Jr. can be more sincere and less perfunctory like Leonardo in future contacts.
Then, after creating great value for Marvel, Tang Enxing may come to his aid to help him break through and rush for awards.
After all, in terms of acting skills, he is qualified.
Don and Robert Downey Jr. hadn't spoken a few words, and Ella Fisher hurried over with a bad face, a magazine in her hand.
"What's wrong?"
There's something strange about Donn.
She was holding Vanity Fair magazine.
The Oscars have just ended, and Vanity Fair magazine is at its best-selling time, with a lot of very popular entertainment news and exclusive celebrity photos.
"There's a report, it's excessive!" Ella Fisher opened the magazine and handed it over.
When Tang En saw it, his face turned cold.
This is an investigative report on the Woody Allen affair.
It's a long-form report.
Content...... There is an obvious suspicion of bias towards Mia Farrow. (https:)
