Chapter 339: 911 on the screen
Chapter 339 911 on the screen
Tom. Hanks was still a little surprised when he received Zhang Yi's invitation. Naturally, I still know a lot about Zhang Yi. Moreover, it is also one of the directors he most wants to work with.
Although Zhang Yi is a Chinese, he is extremely famous in Hollywood, and in terms of strength, he can definitely be at the top level among Hollywood directors.
He didn't see the script of "Forrest Gump", nor did he read the novel, but he still gladly accepted Zhang Yi's invitation to star in this film.
Since he wants to shoot, Zhang Yi will naturally be attentive. Although I have a clear image of this film in my mind, it can be replicated. But this film, which appeared in advance, is simply impossible to replicate completely. After all, even if the actor uses the original cast, it is impossible to achieve the same performance.
Moreover, the original heroine, Jenny, who haunted Forrest Gump, has also changed.
Zhang Yi's new film has always attracted much attention, and this film is no different. However, Zhang Yi, like his previous films, was very low-key during filming.
Too much entertainment gossip every day is worth chasing by the media. Zhang Yi and "Forrest Gump" gradually lost their hot spots. And Zhang Yi did not deliberately publicize it.
Extreme Shadow Film Company operates extremely fast, and as a film shot by the boss, he naturally does not dare to slack off. The lead time is quick.
At the end of April, "Forrest Gump" started filming.
The filming of "Forrest Gump" was briefly reported by some media, and I was immediately attracted by the upcoming film of Jiying Film Company.
A $150 million blockbuster, written and directed by Cameron, and starring Swarzenegger, will be released in July.
It's a blockbuster, a blockbuster that's never been seen before. It was released two months later, but at this time, it had already begun to be overwhelmingly promoted.
Extreme Movie Film Company is now a succession of large-scale productions, and even some old big film companies are a little out of reach.
Zhang Yi didn't pay attention to how the promotion of the movie was in full swing in the outside world, and he wholeheartedly put his jīng efforts on "Forrest Gump". has the original version as a reference, if it is still worse than the original, then he is too ashamed.
The one who lost the reborn traverser.
Of course, above the box office, Zhang Yi did not expect to check the original version. After all, the release of this movie was several years in advance, and if nothing else, even the ticket price is different. In addition, when the film was released at that time, it happened to encounter a special period, and without that background, it is estimated that it would not be possible to reach such a high box office.
However, although this film is excellent, it is also an extraordinary goof. For example, Forrest Gump was bullied by a bad boy, and the stone hit the corner of the eye, but it was the forehead that bleed.
It's just a very inconspicuous goof. There is also a larger one, such as the statue of the goddess Zìyóu, which was restored in 1986, but when the film was filmed in 1979, the statue of the goddess Zìyóu had already been restored.
Do these goofs well, and try not to have new goofs again. Zhang Yi shoots films, although he is good at controlling large scenes, but his requirements for details have also reached a demanding level.
The devil is in the details!
"Forrest Gump" started filming at the end of April, and it took more than two months, and it was only half of the filming. Zhang Yi is so serious about this film, he doesn't have to make such an American film, to make money from Americans, and even the world, and win American awards.
If you want to do it, you have to do it well. Of course, at the beginning, I was interested in this film, naturally because of the above reasons. But after filming, I want to shoot him well, but this is not the reason.
On July 1, Zhang Yi had to stop filming and return to Los Angeles to attend the premiere of the film.
Zhang Yi is still very curious about this movie. Curious about what Cameron filmed the real events after Rì.
After so many years of 911, no film company wants to shoot this, because it is undoubtedly a pain in the hearts of Americans. No film company wants to touch their wounds. In other words, no film company is optimistic about such a movie.
No one would pay to watch a movie that uncovers their own scars.
However, at this time, Zhang Yi's appearance filmed this event that had not yet happened in advance. Americans have not yet suffered that kind of pain, and naturally they cannot talk about revealing their scars. Even, make them extremely curious.
How shocking a movie with an investment of 150 million will be. The investment in "True Lies" is only 100 million US dollars, and the scene is naturally shocking. And the investment in "Jurassic Park" is only 100 million, although there is no big scene in it, but it uses great special effects.
"911", the name of the movie, makes people feel a little strange. But jǐng shows something, because this is the American newspaper jǐng phone.
This is not a film for Zhang Yi, Cameron and Swarzenegger to collaborate again after "True Lies". It's highly anticipated. Moreover, now Zhang Yi's name, self-evident, is still very appealing in Hollywood. Cameron is also more appealing than in his previous life. As for Swarzenegger, he can now be said to be the most dazzling and charismatic star in Hollywood.
The combination of these three people, even if it is filmed as garbage, the box office will not be miserable. Of course, with such a large investment, if the box office is not hot, it will be miserable.
Participating in the premiere of "911", Zhang Yi is naturally not alone, but an actor with "Forrest Gump".
Zhang Yi, who had not appeared for a long time, appeared in front of the public, which still caused a stir.
"May I ask Mr. Zhang, I heard that the story idea of this film was provided by you, is it true?" A reporter asked aloud.
"This story was really provided by me, and then Mr. Cameron wrote and directed it. Of course, as the owner of Polar Shadow Film Company, the investment in this movie can be regarded as me. Zhang Yi smiled and said.
"As the winner of the Oscar for Best Screenplay and Best Adapted Screenplay, why didn't Mr. Zhang write the script himself, but let Director Cameron write it?" The reporter hurriedly asked.
"This script involves all aspects, I have a lot of incidents, if I had written the script myself, you would definitely not have seen this movie now. Moreover, Mr. Cameron is not only very good at directing movies, but also very good at writing scripts. Zhang Yi said with a smile.
"Can Mr. Zhang briefly talk about this movie?" Another reporter hurriedly asked.
"The story of a terrorist attack in the scriptures, the way of the attack is somewhat unexpected, but it has to be guarded against, which can be regarded as a kind of jǐng indication." Zhang Yi smiled and said.
If 911 really appeared, then don't say that Lao Tzu taught terrorists badly. Lao Tzu made this movie to show you, but you don't care at all. If something goes wrong, it's not my responsibility.
Teaching bad terrorists sounds like a. But no fool would admit it.
It is undoubtedly terrifying to be associated with terrorists.
"Mr. Zhang! Mr. Zhang! ”
Zhang Yi smiled and waved his hand, and then walked inside.
"It seems that you are a little nervous, why are you not confident in your own film?" Zhang Yi looked at Cameron's stiff face and said with a smile.
"Why aren't you nervous at all? You have invested more than $100 million in this movie, and if you lose all your money, your film company's next film plans will be affected. Cameron looked at Zhang Yi with an indifferent face, and then asked suspiciously.
He is indeed a little nervous, this is a blockbuster, if it is filmed well, he will naturally gain not only money, fame, but also many opportunities to shoot excellent movies. He is extremely enthusiastic about the "Titanic" written by Zhang Yi.
However, he did not understand. Why did Zhang Yi look indifferent, not a little nervous. An investment of more than $100 million is not so easy to pay for. He hasn't even seen this film, is he so confident in this film.
"Huh. Is it? Zhang Yi smiled and said.
He really doesn't have confidence in this film, after all, this movie can be described as an original movie, and Zhang Yi has no foundation for its box office estimate. However, even if this film accompanies it, it is estimated that it will not be accompanied much. And Zhang Yi can afford to accompany that little money.
Of course, Zhang Yi is not nervous, naturally not because of this, but because of his situation. (To be continued.) )
