Chapter 641: Elven Diamond
In January and February every year, the entertainment media in North America is not all Oscars, and the entertainment news related to the Oscars is also absolutely super hot, such as this year's "Diego Rose" and "The Artist" are the objects of countless media reports, and they are also recognized as the two most likely big winners at this Oscars. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Coupled with the fact that Twentieth Century Fox and Weinstein Pictures each contributed to their own films, "Diego Rose" and "The Artist" are undoubtedly the objects of the entertainment media's most attention and willingness to report after the Oscar nomination luncheon.
However, one day near the end of January, the entertainment media suddenly changed its direction, and the front page was full of news about two people.
Even Murphy, a guy who had just returned to Los Angeles from New York and was extremely busy with work, took the time to pay attention.
"The Matrix Directors: Fully Transgender Wachowski Brothers Become Sisters!"
This is the headline on the entertainment page of the Los Angeles Times that Gal Gadot gave him after returning home in the evening.
"The Wachowski brothers, who directed "The Matrix" and other wonderful movies, the two have changed sexually, from the Wachowski brothers to the Wachowski sisters and brothers, and then evolved into the Wachowski sisters, which really makes people feel that the roles of life have changed, and the lives of these two people are too rich and exciting."
Did they become sisters? Murphy doesn't remember very well, except that the brothers later became siblings.
This kind of thing, he was inevitably curious, and continued to look down.
"The Wachowski brothers are famous directors who have directed classic films such as "The Matrix", and they are a big touch in the hearts of fans, but the two have always been troubled by their biological and psychological gender. And in 2009, the older of the two brothers underwent sex reassignment surgery to become a woman and changed his name to Lana Wachowski. A few days ago, his younger brother Andy Wachowski issued a statement announcing that he would be transgender into a woman like his sister Lana Wachowski. ”
If it was a tabloid, Murphy would have thought it was deliberately hype, but this is the Los Angeles Times, and the possibility of such news being false is still relatively small.
"The original Wachowski brothers, the former Wachowski siblings, are now the Wachowski sisters, in the filming of the movie "Cloud Atlas", the older brother of the brothers changed sex and changed his name to Lana, and now the younger brother Andy changed his name to Lily, which is said to echo the world's first transgender Lily Elby."
This Lily Elby is a little familiar, as if she has seen it in some movie, Murphy frowned and thought for a while, but he really couldn't think of the source, so he simply gave up, and had no interest in looking down further, turned the newspaper to the other side, and found that there was an article about Margot Robbie.
He took a general look at what should have been touted by the gun text, Margot Robbie was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, although she knew that she was unlikely to win, but she also had PR moves.
"Margot Robbie - this post-90s star from Australia has a mature face that is slightly different from her age, and she has a very aggressive charm."
Since it was an article about his friend and Gal Gadot's best friend, Murphy simply read it carefully.
"In recent years, Margot Robbie has completely bid farewell to the title of 'vase' with her successive collaborations with great director Murphy Stanton, and in the two films "City of Chaos" and "Diego Rose" released this year, she has a very outstanding performance.
Gal Gadot walked over at this time, sat next to Murphy, leaned over and looked at the newspaper, and said, "Maggie must have spent a lot of money, I'll ask her tomorrow." ”
"Tomorrow? You're not going to work? Murphy asked curiously.
"I gave myself a day off." Gal Gadot hugged Murphy from the side, resting his forehead on his shoulder, and said, "I asked Maggie to come to the house for lunch. ”
Murphy thought about his itinerary, "I probably don't have time, there's a press conference for Twentieth Century Fox tomorrow at 11 a.m. ”
"It's okay, Maggie isn't a guest." Gal Gadot yawned and said, "It's enough to have me here." ”
"Hmm." Murphy nodded.
Gal Gadot pointed to the newspaper, "Don't take it, keep reading." ”
Murphy adjusted the newspaper to a position where he could read it with Gal Gadot and continued to read the praise article about Margot Robbie.
"Aussie Girl Brave Hollywood!"
Glancing at the segment title, Gal Gadot said, "Is Maggie going to preach her history of hard work?" ”
Despite growing up in a single-parent family, Margot Robbie grew up under the care of her family, her mother was a small Australian farmer who raised four children on her own, Margot Robbie was the third, and she grew up with her brother, sister, brother and two cows. At the age of 16, in order to share the financial burden of the family, Margot Robbie worked three jobs at the same time, working 17 hours a day. After graduating from Somerset Theatre School in Australia at the age of 17, Margot Rob moved to Los Angeles without hesitation and began her career as a professional actor. ”
"Someone once commented on her back then, 'She is too beautiful, so beautiful that she is so patterned, such actors often can't be popular', but this post-90s girl must be the best one even if she is a vase, and in the next few years, she diligently took on a variety of different types of films, no matter how big or small the role is, she cooperates with big names like Murphy Stanton, James Franco and Robert Downey Jr......"
Seeing this, Murphy lost interest, this kind of article used to promote public relations is basically a routine, first emphasizing how difficult life was before the actor became famous, and then showing how hard he worked, and he didn't mind creating a topic that attracted people to watch in a self-revealing way.
The self-promotion of Hollywood's stars with ordinary backgrounds is basically such a routine.
"That's right." Gal Gadot suddenly said, "I've known Maggie for so many years, and sometimes, I always think she's weird. ”
"What's weird?" Murphy asked curiously, "Why didn't I see it?" ”
"You?" Gal Gadot shook his head, "Maggie is like a good girl in front of you, how can you see that." ”
Murphy lowered his head and kissed her, thinking back to many things since he met Margot Robbie, feeling that she was normal, nothing special, if I had to say anything special, it was that when she was a child, Margot Robbie always looked like a cowboy and looked like a tomboy.
"The wildness she cultivated since childhood has not been removed." Murphy analyzed Gal Gadot, "It's all hidden in my heart, and I guess sometimes I show it in front of you, after all, you're her best friend." ”
Gal Gadot thought for a moment, thought that Murphy's analysis made sense, and said, "Maybe that's it." ”
She looked at the time and pulled Murphy up from the living room couch, "It's getting late, let's go rest." ”
Murphy threw down the newspaper and pulled Gal Gadot to the side of the stairs, and after a few steps, Gal Gadot seemed to think of something again, and said as he walked, "I recently saw a project and thought that if it worked well, it might succeed." ”
"What project?" Murphy asked, looking back.
He knows that Gal Gadot has been in this circle for a long time, and he also has some ideas about movies, not to mention her, and even Margot Robbie has started to work as a producer in some of the small projects he starred in.
Gal Gadot said very directly, "Elf Diamond! I've been following The Hobbit lately, and I think we might have a chance to get the rights to the film adaptation of The Pokemon from Tolkien's son. ”
Murphy asked, "The film rights to 'Elf Diamond' are not in the hands of Peter Jackson?" ”
"Nope." Gal Gadot followed Murphy upstairs, "He finished adapting the Lord of the Rings series and reached copyright deals with various companies for The Hobbit, but the rights to The Elven Diamond have always been in the hands of Tolkien's son, Christopher Tolkien. ”
She knew that Murphy loved the series, and said a few times that the biggest regret in her life was missing out on the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
The two went up to the second floor, and without entering the room, they stood by the porch and continued to discuss the topic.
Gal Gadot said in detail, "Due to the poor reputation of "The Hobbit", Christopher Tolkien announced in London a few days ago that he refused to transfer the copyright of "Elf Diamond", especially Peter Jackson to continue filming the series.
Murphy nodded, the "Hobbit" series could be the finale of Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" series, and it would be difficult for the New Zealand fat man to get the rights to "The Elf Diamond" again.
Whether it is the original book of "The Lord of the Rings" or "Elf Diamond", Murphy has naturally seen it.
"Elven Diamond" is a mythological epic that Tolkien spent 60 years carefully polishing, and is the beginning of everything in Middle-earth.
Such a good story is not filmed? Fans are inevitably disappointed, right?
In Murphy's view, the style of "The Elven Diamond" is still different from "The Lord of the Rings", which can be said to be a harsh, sad, carefully conceived and beautiful book, full of heroism and hope.
When this series is filmed, there is certainly no shortage of market and audiences.
"That's it, Gail." Murphy quickly made the decision, "You get in touch with Christopher Tolkien and see if there's any hope." ”
If you can get the best, if you can't get it, there is nothing to lose.
Gal Gadot picked up Murphy and went into the bedroom, "Honey, I've got something special for me tonight. ”
