"What!?"

Hearing the news, almost everyone's first reaction was like this, their eyes widened in surprise, stunned for a few seconds, and then they came back to their senses, Happy April Fool's Day? 99% of the exact rumors: Pokémon Wang Yang will be adapted into the North American version of the Hong Kong classic movie "Infernal Affairs", and ...... Filmed at the same time as "I Am Legend"!

The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is filmed at the same time, and Peter Jackson thus became the first person in history to shoot three films at the same time; the sequels of some big hit films can also be filmed at the same time, but they are the same series, the same crew, and the same set! Actors sometimes appear in two movies at the same time, or movies + TV series, but they are actors. And the simultaneous shooting of Miraculous Young is that there is only one director, two crews, and two on the set, and then the director runs around, appearing on the set of "I Am Legend" today, and on the set of "Infernal Affairs" tomorrow...... "Really?" Even Robert Zemeckis, who inadvertently pushed the matter, was shocked when he heard about it, and he paused to shoot "Desert Island" at the same time, and during the intermission waiting for Tom Hanks to grow his beard and train his muscles, he took the crew to shoot "Danger", and then filmed "Desert Island" after filming It's hard to imagine that filming this story in the morning and another story in the afternoon can still grasp the emotion, acting, rhythm, lens, photography, lighting and other work of the two films?

Maybe Wang Yang shoots them one after another, and they can all make classics of film history, but it doesn't mean that two movies are made at the same time, they will also be classics of film history. If there is confusion or blockage in the shooting, it is undoubtedly shooting yourself in the foot, and this kind of switch is the most difficult, which can make people's heads explode.

But Zemeckis, who has known "Infernal Affairs", can also see that Wang Yang has not lost his mind, and the similar emotions of the two movies make him full of confidence in switching freely. "Jan was still a young man. Zemeckis couldn't help but sigh that the way the "old young guy" finds fun is different from the old guy.

Naturally, the fans were exclaiming, and even the most die-hard fans were a little puzzled when they were excited, why should they shoot at the same time? Hannah said: "I think it's like a woman, one movie at a time can't satisfy him. Emily-N said, "If that's true, he's more fascinating, as long as they don't mess up at both ends up." Jeremy L said: "Obviously, he made this decision because he could handle it, God bless him. "It's not the first time, and it won't be the last," she said. ”…… Soon the rumor was confirmed to be true, and after a lot of research on planning and arrangement, Wang Yang first published this amazing plan on his blog, saying: "It's going to be very interesting and a big challenge, you have to be ready for everything, and I've done it." ”

"Los Angeles Times", "New York Times" and other media do not think so, "I Am Legend" has not completed the preparatory work, "Infernal Affairs" seems to be a blank, but the former has been preparing for many months, and Warner Bros. used to talk about the "foundation" that is better than nothing, if the two want to shoot together, the latter must be a super fast operation of Pokémon, the script is fast, the casting is fast, the preparation is fast, the shooting is fast...... "I want to join the !!" Such an absurd and outrageous huge challenge, in exchange for other directors, not only is the crew of "Infernal Affairs" facing a recruitment crisis, but the crew members of "I Am Legend" must be very dissatisfied, and the people behind the scenes can still say, who of the actors in front of the screen is crazy with him?" "Director, what is Chen Yongren's psychological motivation for doing this?", "Because he was driven crazy by those zombies. "Director, what the hell is Neville thinking about here?", "He's thinking three years and three years and three years, and three years, it's almost ten years, boss!"

Yes, it's not just a superstar. However, now, there are many superstars, celebrities, and popular idols...... When the actor wants to be a "madman", from the second when Magic Yang blew the horn, Hollywood once again had a fierce role battle because of him, Chen Yongren, Liu Jianming, gang boss Han Chen, police officer Huang Zhicheng, psychiatrist Li Xiner, Jianming's girlfriend Mary...... The Hong Kong version of "Infernal Affairs" has two heroines, no matter how it is adapted, there will definitely be at least one heroine.

It can be said that it has nothing to do with salary, honor, fame, etc., of course, cooperating with Magical Young means this, but there are indeed many actresses of the same age whose idea is very simple, and there are no regrets when working with Pokémon once! And now, even if there is only a symbolic salary, even if "Infernal Affairs" is a fiasco, you have to cooperate, and everyone is not qualified to fail with MY!

"Variety" magazine included Wang Yang in the list of "25 handsome directors", and Sam Mendes, Len Wiseman, Paul Anderson, Zack Snyder, Darren Aronofsky, Christopher Nolan and others, they felt that if there was a ranking, Magic Yang was the first, the most handsome director in Hollywood.

This doesn't just refer to appearance, anyway, they know that if they want to fight, they have to be fast! Otherwise, Natalie Portman, Rachel McAdams, and other "Wang Yang Gang" people will be the first to express their willingness to audition, and most of them can only sigh helplessly, especially fast operation requires a high degree of tacit understanding, and Portman and McAdams, who have worked with MY 3 times, have obvious advantages. As for the happiest woman, Jessica Alba, no one is afraid, how can a film with a very high level of literary drama like "Infernal Affairs" be suitable for her? Not to mention that she has to take care of children.

The good news now is that Portman is going to star in another Chinese director Wong Kar-wai's new film "Blueberry Night", which will probably start filming in June, and she should not be able to catch up with "Infernal Affairs", and McAdams, who has no film contract in the summer, seems to be the biggest opponent...... "How's that......? Knightley is currently filming "Silk", and then signed "Atonement", which will start filming in May, "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", which will start filming in August, and "I Am Legend" and "Infernal Affairs" will probably start filming in July or August, and the schedule is conflicting.

A movie that is likely to start shooting in five months has not yet been adapted into a script? Keira Knightley, who became famous for choosing films and provoked films, didn't care, and it was great that she was finally able to audition for Magic Young! But the schedule was really a big problem, she sighed, a little disgusted that Magic Young is so unpredictable! Kayla thought about it and decided: "Let's try it first, "Infernal Affairs" is a men's movie, there won't be many scenes for female characters, and I can shoot at the same time!"

Although this is a men's movie, if she auditions successfully and gets the opportunity to star in "Infernal Affairs", but she can't join because of the endless commercial movie "Pirates of the Caribbean", it will be the biggest regret and the biggest since acting.

In fact, Keira Knightley has countless rivals, and she is not inferior to her in every aspect of acting, appearance, and popularity. Scarlett Johansson, a marginal figure in the "Wang Yang Gang", is filming the flame movie "Deadly Magic", and is expected to star in the commercial film "Nanny Diary" in April after filming, and then it will be gone!

"Well, okay! remember to notify me when the audition is!" Because he was familiar with Wang Yang, in addition to negotiating with his agent, Scarlett also called him in person to express his wishes. Also doing this is Anne Hathaway, whose current film appointment is only "Becoming Jane Austen", which starts shooting in March, and can join "Infernal Affairs" at any time, she also said: "Remember to notify me when the audition is due!" Alan Page, who is about to turn 19, is also full of confidence, she wrote a letter to Wang Yang: "Although I haven't read the script and don't know what role it is, I know that I will be able to play it well." ”

Watching a group of older, peer-age, and young women tear him apart, Jessica is very calm, she has no time and no interest in acting in "Infernal Affairs", maybe not suitable yet...... But when she realized that he needed passion, Jessica was relieved and thought of a lot of things, anyway, this Valentine's Day, she would make him passionate and 100% fresh.

The competition is fierce on the heroine's side, and the hero's side can be described as miserable, anyone who has watched "Infernal Affairs" knows how much room the two male protagonists have, and now the Magic Young directs the adaptation, and it goes without saying politely that the Oscar for Best Actor has a chance to win!

It's just that within two days, a heartbreaking news came out, it is said that Magic Young is very optimistic about Heath Ledger playing the role of "Chen Yongren", and there is almost no need to make any choice, it is him; Heath Ledger is very excited about the possibility of working with Wang Yang again, and it is filming in New York, where he lives! The two can be said to be in love, no matter what their relationship with Wang Yang is, including Brad Pitt and others, who have always coveted this role, can probably only be sad.

Fortunately, there is still a "Liu Jianming" to count on, and it is worth mentioning that at the same time, Wang Yang is interested in inviting Jack Nicholson to play "Han Chen". A media once asked Nicholson: "Heath Ledger is going to play a new version of the Joker, what do you think?" At that time, Nicholson replied in an unhappy tone: "I was not respected, they didn't even ask me if I wanted to play, they had already decided on the candidate." ”

If Heath Ledger and Jack Nicholson really join "Infernal Affairs", the old and new generations of clowns will stage a showdown in advance!

In addition to the cast, fans of "Infernal Affairs" are also very concerned about how it will be adapted? Fans across the Taiwan Strait and three regions of China generally feel that this is the best director candidate, as far as Hollywood Chinese directors are concerned, John Woo is too old, Ang Lee and Wang Ying are too gentle, and Lin Yibin and Wen Ziren have not yet proven their literary and artistic directing ability...... Only a person like Wang Yang, who is strong, tough, crazy and delicate, and a combination of Chinese and Western, can make a good American version of "Infernal Affairs".

"Great!", "Wild!" So the Chinese network was full of cheers, with a faint hint of black cynicism. But media fans know that "Infernal Affairs", as a Chinese-language national treasure movie, contains the unique feelings and pride of the Chinese people, and the American version directed by Wang Yang is definitely the least controversial in the early stage, and everyone's expectations have soared like a rocket.

Now that everything is unknown, Yang Tsai personally went out to remake "Infernal Affairs"! The crazy screams of fans and female fans have long been resounding all over the world.

However, there is a lot of attention, excitement and controversy with Magic Young, and the entertainment media in North America alone have continued to fry the pot in recent days, while filming and gangster crime themes...... On the other hand, Will Smith was also surprised by the "simultaneous shooting", which felt like the other half suddenly announced that he was going to step on two boats at a time, and no one felt good. But long before the announcement, Wang Yang told him and asked for advice, and Will Smith finally chose to trust and support him, some people are always doing unusual things, and in the end they do it perfectly, such as Amazing Young.

In order to play Neville well, Will also has his own preparations, he visited the Georgia Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, he also met with a former prisoner of war who had been imprisoned, and he also tried to refer to Tom Hanks's performance in "Desert Island", hoping to touch Neville's lonely state of mind.

Inevitably, Will kept asking Wang Yang all kinds of questions to perfect the construction of Neville, one of the key points, the loss of his child, life, health, Neville is like the story recorded in the book of Job, then, "Can he find a reason to continue? Does he find hope, or does he desire to succeed and continue to live? Or wait until everything around him dies before he creates his own death?What supports him? What is he thinking?"...... While helping Will prepare, Wang Yang is also busy picking another protagonist of "I Am Legend", "Sam", who is auditioning for a group of German Shepherds.
