readx;??? readx;.

After six months of global screenings, "Hurricane Rescue" was released from the Democratic Republic of the Congo in early December, ending its global screening journey, and after the film ended with a North American box office of $235.78 million, the number of tickets it has obtained so far is not too high, only $34.78 million. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the $34.78 million was enough to push the global box office of "Hurricane Rescue" past the $500 million mark, and the final global box office accumulated $517.54 million.

For a film that costs only $40 million to produce, the profit is astronomical.

But Warner Bros. wasn't going to give up, and they then talked to Duke about finding a new team to make a sequel to the film.

Presumably inspired by the profitability and influence of the spin-off animation of The Matrix, before the new sequel film, Warner Bros.'s TV series division, intends to produce a series of TV episodes about Brian? Mills hasn't had some stories about when he retired.

Since the timeline will be much earlier, the series will inevitably use a new cast, and Liam? It is simply impossible for a popular actor like Neeson to star in a TV series, even if the other party agrees, it is after paying an unimaginable price.

There may be many popular movie stars who make cameos in popular TV series, such as the long cameo lineup of "Friends", but movie stars whose careers are on the rise, no; Several people are willing to star in a TV series.

On the contrary, those TV series stars with frightening income and fame often squeeze their heads into the film industry, and the people who are really successful in the transformation of popular TV series stars in movies can only be described as rare.

Many movie stars are indeed TV series in their initial stages, but with a little research, it is not difficult to find that they starred in TV series. It's all small characters who don't fit into the stream.

Those TV series stars who have become famous, after the end of the TV series, if the transformation is not successful, they can't find someone like Aniston who puts Brad from time to time? Petra's good way of coming out and saying a few words will soon be forgotten.

For example, the actor of "Prison Break", who was once relatively popular, was cut after this series. is basically forgotten in the corner, even if you can get a few roles in the movie, it is also the kind of dispensable small supporting role.

The same thing, except for James? Cameron is still favored, Spielberg wants to control investments, and Woody, whose brain circuits are fundamentally different from normal people? A few directors such as Allen, film directors whose careers have not reached the end of their careers, rarely really participate in the production of TV series, and even if they act as producers, they are often just famous.

In fact, in most countries and regions around the world, the status and style of big-screen stars and small-screen stars are completely different.

After all, there is only one Jennifer in the world? Aniston.

It's not just a "Hurricane Rescue" TV series. Warner Bros. has more plans, but they're waiting, waiting for Duke to turn Batman over and make a TV series that will launch some of DC's second-tier heroes.

After the background explosion scene, the hangar of Hughes Aircraft Factory began to be rebuilt, and Duke gathered the cast and moved into the Warner Studios studio to continue filming as planned.

In the studio. Duke sat behind the monitor and looked at Christian standing in the bat cave? Bel. Maybe it's because he has starred in small-budget independent films in the past, he has very little acting experience in front of a green screen, or maybe it's a five-day break that has allowed him to reach a peak in Iceland and stand in a rocky bat cave, Christian? Bale didn't put Bruce? That feeling of Wayne intersecting with bats again shows.

β€œcut!”

Duke shouted to stop. Leaving the monitor, walking into the makeshift set, stepping on the rocky floor made of polystyrene, walked to Christian? In front of Bell, Bell's head is slightly tilted. It seems to be very distracted.

Seeing that he was thinking, Duke didn't speak, and looked around the bat cave, he also hoped that Bell would get back to his state as soon as possible, the bats were added in post-production, and he couldn't really catch hundreds of bats and put them here.

Even if they are caught, they will not obey human commands.

When Bell came to his senses, Duke walked back and said directly, "Christian, this is a very representative scene, Bruce?" Wayne went from being afraid of bats to bravely standing up and dancing with bats, which was an important shift in his psyche, fear gave him strength, and he was about to become the embodiment of fear! ”

"I understand, Director." Christian? "I'll adjust as soon as I can." ”

While in Iceland, he communicated enough with Bell and Neeson about the characters that Duke said no more and returned to his director's monitor.

He gave Christian? Bell had ten minutes to adjust, and when the time was up, Duke said to the field reporter, "It's time to start." ”

"Scene 47, Act I," the reporter stood in front of the main camera camera with the sign in hand, "Now on!" ”

Christina? Bell walked into the bat cave, lowered his head and turned on the fluorescent lights, with the help of the reflection of the lights, looked up, and then he closed his eyes and turned his head, as if he had encountered something very frightening, and even people squatted on the ground, but Henry in the Himalayas? Ducat's training of him, both physically and mentally, has allowed him to face his fears bravely.

Despite the absence of bats, Christian? Bell was much better than the previous performance, he slowly stood up, faced his fear, bravely stood up, his arms outstretched, his head slightly raised, the shadows of the past seemed to all disperse, and a person who lived with the darkness stood up!

β€œgreat!”

Duke complimented, don't wait for Christian? Bell relaxed, and said, "You're doing well, but I'm sure you can do better, take a five-minute break, and get on with the show!" ”

In the actors' lounge area, Liam after putting on makeup? Neeson standing in Tina? Fei looked at it for a while, pinched his chin and said, "It seems that Duke and Christian have a lot of feelings." ”

"Hmm." Tina? Fei nodded approvingly, "His requirements for actors' performances have always been not very high, as long as the performance is above the passing line, he can generally pass, this movie is an exception." ”

Indeed, Duke has taken a stricter attitude than ever before to demand that the actors perform in their performances.

The action scenes of the Batman trilogy, compared with his past films, are neither dense nor intense enough, if the actors play mediocre, the literary dramas, especially those involving the character building, will infinitely magnify the actors' flaws, thus affecting the entire film.

What if Bruce? Wayne is like Legolas, who comes out to play cool and handsome during fights, and acts as a backdrop board during literary plays, and Duke will never ask Christian like he does now? Bel.

This reaction to Bruce? The scene where Wayne stands up in fear, Duke shoots it on and off five times before he shouts through.

Subsequently, Christian? Bale went to put on makeup, and Duke took the crew to a nearby set to shoot Liam? Neeson vs. Christian? Bell's rivalry between them.

Like the Joker vs. Batman, Bruce? Wayne vs. Henry? The peculiar relationship between Ducats is also the highlight of this film.

Is this a Henry? Ducat's psychedelic drugs refined from blue flowers, combined with field training, guided Bruce? Wayne's drama of overcoming the fear in his heart.

Although there are action scenes in it, the elements of the action scenes are almost negligible, Liam? Neeson's tone and lines are key.

"Feel how fear blurs your senses, allows the power of fear to distort your body and mind, and takes control of everything you do, and this power of fear belongs to you, embrace your deepest fears, Bruce!"

Because it was filmed in a studio, Duke took the approach of live recording, Liam? Neeson's tone also fluctuated, as if he were a messenger from the darkness, "Merge with the dark forces of fear and give your full attention!" Throw your heart and soul into it! Control your whole body as you want......"

Despite the heavy weight of the actors' performances in the filming, Duke is also trying to move Liam? Nissen and Christian? Bell's enthusiasm, adjust their state, the state of the actors will also fluctuate, when the two are in good shape, the filming progress will be extremely fast, and when the state is down, it is often difficult to complete the day's plan on time.

Throughout December, Duke spent Christmas with his mother in New York on the shoot at Warner Studios and Hughes Aircraft Factory, and from mid-December, Liam ? Nissen and Christian? Bell was at his best, and by the time 2004 and 2005 had passed, the filming was about a week ahead of schedule.

If this rate continues, all shots will be completed before the end of January 2005.

Of course, the remaining scenes are still rare, because there is only one concept car, and the other Batmobiles will not be in place until the New Year, and all the scenes of the Batmobile speeding and car chase are all left by Duke to be filmed in the back, and one of the super car chases has to be filmed on location in downtown Chicago.

Just after the New Year of 2005, eight Batmobiles and models built by Lamborghini were shipped to Los Angeles and delivered directly to the hangar of the Hughes aircraft factory.

Just like Duke requested, several Batmobiles that can be driven are all monster-level existences, and he also drove a few on the spot and experienced the feeling of turning over Batman, although the Batmobile is not refined enough and looks a little rough, but it is absolutely cool.

Lamborghini and Warner Bros. are also preparing to launch a sales version of the Batmobile after the film's release.

Of course, this must be a weakened version of the Batmobile, after all, the car used by the crew is not suitable for long drives, and the fuel consumption is as high as one gallon per mile!

With the short New Year's holiday over, Duke led the crew to Chicago with eight Batmobiles. (To be continued......)
