Chapter 260: Uncle Cage and Superman
"Donnie, you're free to act. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
After whispering a few words to Robert Downey Jr. and Jessica Alba, Murphy asked Jessica Alba to go back first, and then specifically told Robert Downey Jr., "You are responsible for driving Jesse's emotions." β
Robert Downey Jr. nodded, "I understand. β
Murphy waved at him, and Robert Downey Jr. returned to the bar to practice with Jessica Alba a few times.
Although acting is a very subjective thing, but if the difference is very obvious, it is still relatively easy to be seen, Jessica Alba's last film was highly praised, and it is not unrelated to the setting of the character itself, but Vanessa in this film is an imitation cat in the comics, but the film does not show any variant factors, it is a standard vase.
Although the vase is relatively easy to make, Jessica Alba still struggles to cope with the scenes that require her to bring a little acting explosion in those scenes after filming.
In this way, Murphy improvised a scene, and if she wants to do it well, Robert Downey Jr., who plays the opposite role, is very important.
Filming soon resumes, with Wade Wilson, played by Robert Downey Jr., generously inviting everyone in the bar to drink, attracting the attention of Vanessa, who sells her body for a living, and then Jessica Alba moves to Robert Downey Jr. as before.
"What do you do?" "Mercenaries like them?" she asked. β
"No, I'm not a mercenary." Robert Downey Jr. shook his head, "I'm doing research. β
Jessica Alba's face was a little surprised, somewhat exaggerated, if it was any other situation, Murphy would definitely shout to stop, but this exaggerated expression is used in a prostitute who seduces customers. The woman is also considered to be in the right place.
She covered her mouth and asked in surprise, "Do research?" Where is it? β
Robert Downey Jr. shrugged, "Psychiatric hospital." β
"Uh......" Jessica Alba looked like she didn't expect him to answer like that, and then asked, "What can you study in that kind of place?" β
"Being studied." Robert Downey Jr. replied.
The rest of the shoot went well, and it took another two days for Murphy to finish all the scenes in the bar, and the crew returned to Fox Studios to shoot the scenes in the interior in the rebuilt set.
The filming is still full of joy, in addition to Robert Downey Jr., including Lily Collins and Krakow, all of them have successfully turned into spit masters, using various gods to spit and drive the joyful atmosphere of the film.
In addition to filming, Murphy also has to take care of some other work, the venue for the crew to shoot the climactic scene is still being laid out, because the Fox studio does not have such a large empty space, the last time he came to visit, he deliberately chose an abandoned factory some distance from Sydney, and carried out some appropriate renovations, and then used it as the final filming location of the film.
Due to the adequate preparation and the fact that Robert Downey Jr. was in very good shape, the filming went exceptionally smoothly, even slightly faster than planned, and Murphy initially planned to complete the shooting within two months, and now it is very promising that it will be completed ahead of schedule.
"Judging from the current situation, as long as Downey's form is guaranteed,"
In the studio's cafeteria, Murphy was enjoying his lunch of roast beef with potatoes while chatting with Carla Firth across the street about work, "I'll shoot in fifty days, and before Christmas, we can go back to Los Angeles and start post-production." β
Carla Firth nodded, thinking, "That gives us four months to finish post-production, which is plenty of money." β
"By the end of March at the latest, I will be able to finish the film." Murphy is confident, and that's not what he's worried about, "Kara, you need to push Twentieth Century Fox more in terms of publicity, this film relies a lot on propaganda interaction." β
The film industry has developed to the present, and there is no film that can be sold without relying on publicity and marketing.
"You can rest assured in this regard." Carla Firth took a sip from her glass of water, "I want to see the film sell more than you do." β
She put down her glass, picked up a napkin, wiped her mouth, and asked, "When will the car you sent to pick up Gail arrive?" β
"I just called before lunch." Murphy looked at his watch, "I've already received Gail, she went to the hotel first to reverse the jet lag." β
Gal Gadot flew to Australia on the weekend, but Murphy's filming did not stop, and the crew did not take a holiday, because of work, he sent a car to the airport, and when he finished work before, Gal Gadot had already gotten off the plane and got into the car.
Carla Firth suddenly said, "Gail is a good girl. β
"Well, she's very nice." Murphy fully agrees with this statement, "independent, cheerful, generous, beautiful......"
He spread his hands, "There are so many good things about her, I can't find enough adjectives." β
Of course, Gal Gadot also has some minor faults, but just like him, everyone has flaws, and there are no perfect people in this world.
Murphy put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth, and was about to say something, when he suddenly saw a strange-looking person on the opposite side walking over, but his target was not here, he just passed by with a plate, and then walked to a position in the corner.
This is a superstar, a former member of the Hollywood Club of 20 million.
"Nicolas Cage......"
Seeing this, Murphy thought of the series of blood-boiling action blockbusters in the nineties, and couldn't help asking, "He's also at Fox Studios?" What kind of film to shoot? β
This is the set, an important overseas filming base for Hollywood, and there are often stars coming and going.
"Don't you know?" Carla Firth seems weird.
Murphy shook his head, "I've been busy with our projects lately, and I haven't paid attention to anything else in the circle. β
Carla Firth reminded that "Warner Bros. is still in the pipeline for Superman Returns. β
There were too many troubles in the preparation of this project, and it is said that it may not be possible to start filming by early next year.
"Oh? Who does he play? Murphy became a little intrigued, remembering Nicolas Cage's hairline getting higher and higher over time, and guessed, "Is it Lex Luthor?" β
Nicolas Cage's bizarre appearance and neurotic performance make it a good fit to play that madman, at least a lot better than a curly hair that used to be.
"It's not." Carla Firth shook her head at first, then gave an unbelievable answer, "Nicolas Cage is the superman candidate in Warner Bros. β
βwhatοΌβ There was little news that could surprise Murphy so much, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Nicolas Cage, "He plays Superman?" β
It's a picture that's hard to imagine.
Carla Firth shook her head, "Who knows what Warner Bros. and Brian Singer think." β
Murphy tried hard to recall, and he remembered that only many big-name stars had auditioned for "Superman Returns", but there was nothing about Nicolas Cage, but he remembered that many famous stars turned down the role in the end, obviously knowing the disadvantages of playing Superman, and in the end it should be a not-so-famous actor who got the role.
Superman fixes his image more than any other superhero, and is likely to cause irreversible damage to famous actors whose careers are on the rise.
However, although Nicolas Cage is not the king of bad movies yet, there is no better choice.
It's just Superman played by Cage...... Just thinking about this picture, Murphy felt goosebumps.
But looking back, this crew has encountered so many twists and turns just in the early preparations, and Nicolas Cage may not be able to make Superman in the end.
According to Carla Firth, Bruce Berman has been intervening in the project, and before Brian Singh took over, it was close to $50 million just for the cost of changing scripts and directors back and forth.
It's good that this project is successful, but if it fails, it will be difficult for the person in charge to find someone to take the blame for him, and such a large amount of money is not something that any person who bears the blame can carry.
After lunch, Murphy and Carla Firth left the restaurant and headed straight back to the main studio where Deadpool was filmed.
As soon as Murphy walked into the studio, he saw Seth Rogen and Robert Downey Jr. chatting with a girl near the door, although the girl had her back to her, her slender and tall figure, slender and straight legs, still made him easily recognize who she was.
At the moment when Murphy saw Gal Gadot, as if he had an electrocardiogram, Gal Gadot suddenly turned his head and caught Murphy for the first time.
The eyes of the two collided in the air, and a fiery heat immediately flowed from their hearts, revealing excitement and excitement at the same time.
Although they have to make at least two phone calls a day, Murphy and Gal Gadot have been separated for almost a month, and for lovers in love, such a long time brings more than endless longing.
Murphy quickened his pace and walked over to Gal Gadot, raising a hand and gently caressing her delicate face, which was visibly tired after a long flight.
"Why didn't you go to the hotel?" Murphy said with a bit of reproach, "Didn't you say that you should go to the jet lag first?" β
Gal Gadot smiled and rubbed his face against Murphy's palm again, "I miss you." β
This sentence trumps all explanations.
Next to him, Robert Downey Jr. clasped his hands to his chest, as if waiting to see a good show, Seth Logan pulled him, and Robert Downey Jr. reluctantly followed him away.
"I'll bet you $100," he said, "Murphy will go back to the hotel with Gail soon, or he'll find a trailer to be alone for a while." β
He didn't believe these two people could hold back.
After spending a long time with these unreliable bad friends, Seth Rogan was also infected, and immediately said, "Okay, I'll bet with you." I think Murphy will continue to work and will only go with Gail when the work is done. β
The whole crew was staring at director Murphy. (To be continued.) )
