The interior shooting of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was mainly concentrated in several large Sony studios, of which Studio 7 was mainly used to shoot the interior of the blacksmith where one of the leading actors, Will Turner, worked.

The fire started in the early hours of Wednesday when a prop warehouse in the studio caught fire, and was eventually extinguished by the felt firefighters after burning down Pirates of the Caribbean and a nearby sound stage.

Thankfully, there were no casualties in the fire, but on the other hand, although the fire was stopped in time, most of the studios of Pirates of the Caribbean and another crew had already been burned down, including the loss of $350,000 in the burning of Pirates of the Caribbean's Stage 7.

And that's not the biggest problem, the biggest problem is that the set is ruined, so what about the rest of the shooting schedule?

Sid looked speechlessly at the almost burned soundstage, with a group of Pirates of the Caribbean crew executives behind him, producer Henry and assistant director Justin Lin standing beside him.

"It looks like it's completely scrapped. Sid scratched his brow and said helplessly.

"yes, Boss. Justin Lin nodded, then flipped through the notepad in his hand, "But fortunately, most of the shots we need for this studio scene have already been shot, and if we need to reshoot, we can repair and build sets in other studios to shoot." ”

"So let's do it. Sid turned to look at producer Henry, who nodded and said, "I'll negotiate with Sony." ”

"Okay, what are we going to shoot today?" asked Sid, looking at the field notes.

"We're ...... today," the field reporter told Sid.

"Boss—" Sid's assistant suddenly came out of nowhere, panting from a distance, interrupting the crowd.

"What's wrong? calm down. Sid frowned, and his tone was indifferent to calm the other party.

"Yes, it's Kevin, Mr. Kevin McNally, he was accidentally scalded ......!" the assistant's words couldn't help but make Sid and the others change their faces, and Sid raised his eyebrows even more.

"Is it serious?" asked Henry.

And Sid walked out directly, "Take us over." ”

The assistant had to take everyone to Orlando Bloom's RV, and when they saw the eye-catching red burn marks on Orlando's arm, everyone couldn't help but gasp, they didn't think it was serious when they heard the assistant, but now they look at it, it's so serious.

This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight!

The studio was burned down just now, and Orlando, one of the leading actors, was actually burned again?!

Although the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has already insured the leading actors with life insurance and completion insurance, if they miss the filming schedule because of this, they will naturally be compensated by the insurance company, but this will still slow down the shooting, and this is definitely the last thing Sid wants to see.

"Orlando, are you feeling okay?

"It's a bit of a sting, but it's fine. Orlando smiled a little forcefully, but he assured Sid, "Don't worry, director, I'm not going to put it off." ”

Sid looked at the medical staff next to him who was examining him and applying the ointment, "How's Orlando's injury? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"Although Mr. Bloom's burn area is a little large, but because it is water, it is not very serious, rubbing the ointment three times a day, it should be fine within half a week. The medical staff said after the examination.

"Whew——, that's good. Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Sid was also secretly relieved.

"That's it, in the last three days, we will shoot literary dramas first, and if there are action scenes, we will use stand-ins. Sid quickly made a decision, and the group began to get to work quickly.

But in the next few days, the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" had all kinds of strange little accidents one after another, these accidents were not serious, but they always caused all kinds of trouble to the crew and made people angry.

For example, when Johnny Depp went to the toilet in the bathroom of the studio, he was mistakenly locked inside, resulting in no one who could find him after the shooting started.

For example, the lighting engineer had already set up the lights, but suddenly encountered an overload of current, and directly burned half of the lights, so that the lighting could only be re-arranged.

Things like this happened one after another, which made the entire crew panic for a while, and even Sid heard a lot, "Really, really, I said I didn't lie to you." Lindsey said to Sid in a serious manner.

"Okay, you think I'm going to believe this kind of joke?" Sid smiled and patted the forest track.

"No, what I said is true!" Lindsay said seriously, "And I'm not the only one who says that, everyone in the crew says it! Our crew is cursed——! if you don't believe me, you can ask Justin." ”

Seeing Sid's suspicious appearance, Lindsay hurriedly said.

Lindsay said that because of the crew's successive unfortunate events recently, many people began to spread rumors of "curses", and Lindsay and others were even more "convinced", which made Sid speechless.

If you want to say that in North America, a place with advanced technology, there are really some industries that really believe in some kind of ethereal things such as curses and luck, and the film industry is one of them.

There are also many such deeds in history, such as when filming "Cleopatra", the most expensive movie in history, Fox wanted to imitate MGM's "Ben-Hur".

The latter not only brought MGM back to life, but also won 11 Oscars and made epic films a Hollywood trend for a time.

And "Cleopatra" first replaced the heroine with Elizabeth Taylor, who was in full swing at the time, paid her a million-dollar salary, and in order to restore it realistically, almost rebuilt an ancient Roman city in a one-to-one ratio.

And the decision to temporarily replace the heroine with Elizabeth Taylor also made the filmmaker suffer a lot later.

First of all, it was an unimaginable million-dollar salary at the time, and then during the filming process, Elizabeth Taylor and the actor Richard Burton deliberately spread a scandal through Fox, which originally wanted to stir up the scandal to attract popularity.

But the problem is that at that time, Elizabeth Taylor was a married woman, and Richard Burton was a married man, and the entire European and American society was an extremely conservative mainstream era, and such scandals not only did not bring benefits, but were disgusting.

And then Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton even faked the real thing, made real feelings, and the scandal turned into derailment, which completely shocked the entire Western world, and even the Vatican Holy See issued a special statement for this, condemning the two "throughout".
