"I met Kevin Feige the other day. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

In a moving car in Beverly Hills, Carla Firth said to Murphy, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "He called me several times in a row to meet me. ”

Gal Gadot next to him asked curiously, "Is it about the schedule of "Thor" and "City of Chaos"?" ”

Murphy also looked back at Carla Firth with concern, and Carla Firth nodded and said, "That's right, he wants us to change the schedule." ”

"How is this possible?" Gal Gadot shook his head, "If we change the schedule, isn't our pre-promotion done in vain!" ”

Kara Firth laughed and said unhurriedly, "So, I turned Kevin Feige down." ”

Hearing her say this, Murphy turned around, the beginning of the summer file is a good time, in his own opinion, it is better than the Memorial Day schedule at the end of May, and the movie "Thor", compared to the "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" on Memorial Day, "Transformers 3" released in mid-June, and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" during the Independence Day holiday, "Thor" is an out-and-out soft persimmon.

The prime time of the first weekend of May, coupled with Thor such a third-rate superhero, Murphy and Carla Firth of course have to pick soft persimmons to pinch.

And arranging "City of Chaos" to be released at the beginning of the summer season can also avoid colliding with other major titles that have already set a release date for Twentieth Century Fox in the summer file.

For example, "The Hangover 2", which changed the director and some actors, was released in mid-May, "X-Men: First War" was released in early June, the latest "Rio Adventure" was released at the end of June, and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" was released in mid-July......

Add to that Murphy's "City of Chaos," the five films that Twentieth Century Fox featured in the summer of 2011, and of course it would be tragic to spread the schedule apart, otherwise it would be tragic to form a situation of competition with its own.

Murphy looked into the distance, approaching the mansion that James Franco had not lived in Beverly Hills, and asked, "What else are you talking about?" ”

"Hmm." Kara Fitch didn't hide it either, and said directly, "After I refused to change the schedule, Kevin Feige wanted to make a deal with me to avoid competition. ”

"Is it done?" Murphy didn't look back.

"Do you think two films can avoid competition?" Karafis asked.

Murphy didn't answer, and the answer to the question was obvious, how could two films released on the same weekend not form a competitive relationship?

Carla Firth then added, "I made a verbal agreement with him that the two films would avoid as much competition as possible, and that would be in no one's favor." ”

Twentieth Century Fox and Walt Disney, the distributor of "Thor", both belong to the ranks of the six major Hollywood companies, and the six major companies compete and cooperate, but the competition will not be without a bottom line, and the vicious competition without a bottom line can be said to hurt each other.

This aspect is handled by Carla Firth Murphy is reassuring enough, and Carla Firth will definitely not hesitate when it is time to retract his hand, but when the time is right to hit his competitors, Kara Firth will definitely not let go.

The car slowly drove into James Franco's mansion, which was bustling with people, booms, cameras and makeup trailers, and almost turned into a Hollywood set.

In fact, this is one of the main filming locations for Seth Rogen's new film "The End of the World", and Murphy, Gal Gadot and Carla Firth came to participate in the filming of this film.

Murphy's post-production work is almost over, leaving only a handful of unfinished work, such as adding soundtracks, sound effects editing, and subtitling, to Michelle Williams for the time being, who can devote himself to the filming of the film for the time being.

"The End of the World" was prepared in early March and officially started filming, and Murphy didn't have many scenes in it, and he didn't play a good role.

Coming to the set, filming was underway, Murphy saw Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill busy directing the crew, and didn't go over to say hello, led by two staff members, went to the men's and women's dressing rooms with Gal Gadot and Carla Firth respectively, and after a simple makeup, he came to the wide lawn in front of James Franco's mansion, patiently waiting for his role.

Standing here for a while, Murphy saw quite a few familiar faces, many of whom could be described as Hollywood stars.

In addition to the Stanton partisans and their respective girlfriend friends, Seth Rogan, Jonah Hill and James Franco have brought in actors like Jay Baruchel, Craig Robinson, Nicolas Cage, Selena Gomez and more. Moreover, there are also cameos from stars such as Paul Rudd, Emma Watson, Taylor Swift and Rihanna.

Of course, most of them just make cameos.

It's a party scene, and when Gal Gadot and Carla Firth come over, Murphy is soon informed that they're ready to go on the stage to participate in the filming.

The scene to be filmed is not difficult, Murphy and Gal Gadot both appear in the film as real people, they accept the invitation and come over to the party held by James Franco, because something happened to leave early, and then the world changes drastically, and the good people are protected by the beams of light coming down from the sky and enter heaven smoothly, and notorious guys like the Stanton party naturally continue to stay in the world like purgatory to do evil.

"Murphy ......"

On the set, Murphy and Gal Gadot stood in front of Seth Rogen and listened to him say, "You and Gail went around the party, and then you met Carla Firth, had a casual chat, and said goodbye to James and left in a hurry." ”

He turned back to Gal Gadot and Carla Fez, "What you usually do at the party, just do now." ”

Gal Gadot and Carla Firth nodded one after the other.

After getting acquainted with the moves twice, filming soon began, and basically all the celebrities who participated in the cameos, including Murphy, wore their own evening dresses to the party, and Gal Gadot and Carla Firth were no exception.

Murphy took Gal Gadot in his arms and wandered around the party, stopping to chat with people from time to time, Seth Rogan did not set the lines here, and completely watched the cameos play freely, so that there was no limit to the performance, and it was also conducive to the improvisation of the stars.

The party is always going on, and the filming is actually divided into two parts, on the sides where they basically don't interfere with each other, Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill each shoot with a team, Jonah Hill shoots scenes with some professional actors such as James Franco and Robert Downey Jr., and the requirements for him as a temporary director are not too high, and a person like Murphy with mediocre acting skills, Seth Rogen of course has to watch it personally.

There is a camera that always captures Murphy and Gal Gadot from the side front, Seth Rogan is not stupid, knowing that Murphy's acting skills will definitely be complained about, but he, a big director, rarely plays a certain role, but it is very conducive to the film to create topics and promote it.

I have to say that these guys from the Stanton Party have been somewhat influenced by Murphy.

Since they are all real-life identities in the film, and the performance is also played on the spot, Murphy and Gal Gadot walked not far away, and before they could find Carla Fez, someone came over to say hello.

"Hi, Murphy."

A blonde girl in a sky blue short dress suddenly walked up to Murphy and Gal Gadot, "Long time no see." ”

"It's been a long time." Murphy tried to be as natural as he could, "Hello, Miss Swift. ”

Taylor Swift turned to look at Murphy, "Hello, you're Miss Gal Gadot, right?" ”

Gal Gadot nodded slightly, as if attending a normal party, and said politely, "Hello, Miss Swift." ”

"You're so lucky." Taylor Swift grinned, "To be Murphy's girlfriend." ”

There was an extremely secret sarcasm in this sentence, and people like Murphy could naturally hear it, looked at Gal Gadot, and said, "I'm the lucky one!" ”

Gal Gadot smiled slightly, not bothering to bother with this kind of little girl at all.

The embarrassment on Taylor Swift's face flashed and he said, "We'll talk another day." ”

With that, she voluntarily moved out of the way, and Murphy and Gal Gadot continued to walk forward, perhaps with the camera turned to the front, reminding Murphy that he was filming a movie......

The existence of the camera just appeared in his mind, the expression on Murphy's face instantly stiffened, and the steps he took also changed, maybe there was not much difference with the naked eye, but it was captured by the high-definition movie camera lens, and the natural expression just now, it was inevitable that there was a very big change.

“cut！” Seth Rogen's voice rang out to stop, "Murphy, take it easy, be natural!" ”

Murphy nodded slightly, and quickly adjusted his breathing.

Seth Rogan, knowing that Murphy would direct the actors, but his acting skills were quite average, came over and whispered, "You just behaved very well, forget that this is a movie, forget the camera lens, this is a normal party, you have to party many times a year." ”

"I know." Murphy adjusted his breathing, "Give me a few minutes to adjust." ”

Gal Gadot gently shook his hand, "Honey, calm down, don't be in a hurry. ”

Having said that, but in the later shooting, how could Murphy not find the state, as a director, he knows very well how to shoot the play and how the actors should act, and let him perform in person, but it is difficult to do it.

Even though he knew that he could be himself in life, he couldn't ignore the camera at all, which led to the interruption of filming one after another.

After breaking the original state of nature, the character became extremely complex for Murphy, and in addition to playing himself in the film, he also had to play another version of himself, which was like putting himself and another self together. (To be continued.) )
