Chapter 303: Spider-Man as a demon

Maguire received a lawyer's letter and was also claimed $100 million, which was a fire in a small temple - panicked, but after consulting a lawyer, he was reassured.

Lawyer Fei Qi said: "Strikes, sabotage is definitely not good, there are contracts to bind, but if you are sick and uncomfortable, the media and fans will support you, Spider-Man is a hen that lays golden eggs, your position is irreplaceable, you deserve more, you should learn from two Toms, set up your own company, from a worker to a collaborator." ”

Maguire came to the set the next day and came to Sam Raimi's office, and the two sides chatted a few words, and Remy said: "Actually, the conditions are quite good, there are no ten actors in Hollywood who can take this condition, and DiCaprio does not have them." ”

"Spider-Man" made Columbia Pictures the highest-grossing film in their history, ranking first and second, and also made Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire, both of whom stepped into the ranks of A-list superstars.

Maguire said: "Leo has anything else to do besides Titanic? I have two works that break 300 million in North China, two of them! And the actor can do this, but they deal with me in a way of sending beggars, all this must be stopped, and I should be treated with the respect I deserve." ”

Remy was stunned, a smile of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth, he knew that this guy's confidence had surged to this point, there were many reasons for the big hit of "Spider-Man", the social environment, decades of brand effect, huge investment, excellent production, as well as publicity and distribution, the role of directors and actors in it is similar to these factors, but some people take all the credit for themselves, which is like saying that the global success of "Titanic" is the work of Xiao Lizi's face.

Maguire is a smart man, as soon as he looks at the other party's face, he knows that the other party will not support him, this is not difficult to choose, who doesn't want to hug his thighs? But this does not frighten him, he said to himself: "Happiness can only be won by oneself." ”

Remy said: "I think you should respect the contract, it is binding. ”

Maguire shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, but I won't give up what I reasonably wanted." ”

Maguire and the lawyer both believe that "Spider-Man" is the signature of Colombia, the most profitable cash cow, and the revenue of DVD and peripheral is astronomical, so they dare to spend 220 million production fees, which is still the production cost of the first issue, this is not a joke, their expectations for this project are very high, and it will not benefit them at all if it drags on.

However, the lawyer is right, a head-on confrontation is not allowed, but it can be detoured, so after a few days of filming, he suddenly fainted on the set and was rushed to the hospital.

As for how long he stays in the hospital, it depends on how generous Colombia is, anyway, it is not a secret that he has chronic myelitis in Hollywood, and they released the news as soon as possible and made the headlines of the entertainment pages of major Hollywood newspapers.

Remy has a headache, and the official start date of filming is January next year, but their crew has been formed and has begun to prepare for some special effects shots.

In the first two episodes of "Spider-Man", Maguire used a large number of stuntmen because he wore a spider mask when he was fighting, but in "Spider-Man 3", "Spider-Man" The identity has been completely revealed, and director Remy also specially arranged part of the scenes where Peter fights Harry without wearing a spider suit, but the long shots or the very technical parts are still completed by a stand-in, and because Maguire himself is plagued by chronic spinal disease, Remy is careful even if he arranges action scenes for him, but in general, Maguire has four times as many action scenes to complete in the third episode as in the first two episodes combined.

The stuntmen who served as stand-ins for the film have long been fully prepared, and the actors are even more so, especially Bryce Dallas Howard, she is a girl, but she personally completed the stunt shooting that even "Spider-Man" Maguire did not dare to photograph, you know, even "Spider-Man" himself is just a stand-in, but Howard personally completed the high-altitude flying stunts that even boys would be afraid of.

Bryce Dallas Howard, is the daughter of Raimi's friend Ron Howard, if you have read the original comics, you should know how important this character plays in "Spider-Man", she even fell in love with Peter Parker before Mary Jane, in fact, Raimi also considered letting her appear in the first episode of "Spider-Man", but considering that her eventual death had a decisive impact on "Spider-Man", her appearance was delayed, and Gwen Stady worshipped "Spider-Man" madly , because he had saved her, she was innocent and straightforward, willing to sacrifice herself for the people she loved, and Mary Jane are two girls with different personalities, in the original book, she died at the hands of the Green Goblin, and in this movie version, she can only be abandoned by Spider-Man.

Needless to say, Howard's status in the circle is one of the top ten business directors, even Iger and Mark are very courteous to him, and another big project in Colombia "The Da Vinci Code" is being directed by him.

Bryce Dallas Howard, from the famous Howard family, his father is the famous director Ron Howard, his mother is actress Cheryl Howard, in addition, Bryce's grandparents and uncle Clint Howard are also filmmakers, as early as childhood, Bryce appeared in his father Ron's films, including the famous "Apollo 13".

Born into such a prominent family, it was not easy to play any play, but Dallace was admitted to the New York University School of the Arts, and when she registered at the school, she removed her surname "Howard" and changed her name to Bryce Dallas, hoping that she could get the same treatment as other students. After graduating from Adler's music classroom and New York University's acting department, Bryce did not rush to Hollywood, but came to the stage like a real British actor to accumulate acting experience, at that time she almost became a famous actor in Parkway, and her best skills were Shakespeare's plays.

Remy is really angry, a famous daughter like Dallas works so hard, and Maguire repays his high hopes in this way, the young guy who was persistent, serious, and enthusiastic and generous has completely changed.

Remy can understand that he doesn't dare not do these stunt shots, so noble alone, leisurely, "Spider-Man" is said to be an action blockbuster, in fact, Maguire's play is mainly a literary drama, all the slightly difficult action stuntmen are completed, and there are as many as ten stuntmen for him alone, but such insatiable repeated price increases, which makes people angry.

Remy is not against the actor's price increase, that must be how much you can get before signing the contract, this is your ability, but if you make trouble after signing the contract, Remy will be unhappy, the one in front of you, in addition to "Spider-Man", is there any other work that can be done! No, "Spider-Man" has made him, except for Spider-Man, he is nothing.

But is he grateful? No.

Remy has been in the industry for more than 20 years, hating a kind of actor, they become popular because of a certain type of role, fame and fortune, but he pretends to regret it, and reprimands the role for fixing his image and limiting his possibility of developing to other roles, Remy is sneering, if you have acting skills, you will definitely stand out, just like Aniston in "Friends", if not, like several others, they will die in the role for a lifetime, and when they feel sorry for themselves, I don't know if they have ever thought that if there is no role, they are nothing.

Remy had no choice but to call Layton, who was only responsible for production-related matters, and the rest was handled by several other producers, and finally Layton, the boss, was in charge.

In order to save costs, part of the exterior of "Spider-Man 3", which will start filming in January, will be changed from New York to Cleveland, a port city in northeastern Ohio, where not only the labor cost is low, but also a preferential tax rebate policy, but the "Spider-Man" seen by the audience in the film will still show his skills in "New York".

Closing streets in Cleveland for a movie is cheaper than in New York, and the city's convention center offers free filming space, and the special effects director assures that computer-generated images can make Cleveland's aerial lines look like New York, so the story of "Spider-Man 3" on the screen looks like it still takes place in New York, which can save tens of millions of dollars.

Leighton personally went out to discuss cooperation with the local government, and he lamented: "How dare we work for Maguire?"

Remy said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”

Layton said: "It's none of your business, people's desires are difficult to satisfy, he thinks he is essential, he wants to ask for more, this is normal, there is no Hanks's strength, but Hanks has the same price, this is impossible, leave this matter to me, you concentrate on shooting the movie, right? ”

Remy breathed a sigh of relief and said, "OK!

Unlike Maguire, Remy has a different view of Spider-Man than Maguire, and he believes that it was Spider-Man that made him who he is, and he is grateful for it.

He was already a movie buff at the age of ten, making his own films with an 8cm camera, and in '81 he shot the low-budget thriller horror film "Evil Dead", which was widely popular with teenagers and was hailed as a classic of 80's horror films, followed by two sequels in '87 and '93, making the film a series. Sam Lemmy's imitation of Scorsese's camera movement creates a personal visual language full of style, with a comic fantasy but also a deep analysis of human nature.

Sam Lemy then made some films, but they didn't have a big hit, and the work that made him a first-class entertainment director was "Spider-Man" in 2002, and he successfully brought the classic comic "Spider-Man" to the big screen, creating a box office miracle.

After 30 years in the industry, he has today's achievements, for which he is full of gratitude, "Spider-Man" has achieved himself, he just wants to keep filming.

Thank you, the happiest thing for the local tyrant book friends is that you are fatter than me. Thanks a lot. Commonwealth of Nations.
