"The first superhero movie after Imperial Pictures acquired Marvel, "Iron Man", the big-screen copyright of this work has just been repurchased from New Line Films, plus the investment has reached 1.5 billion US dollars, it can be seen that Dr. Li is optimistic about this series.

However, in the case that Tom Cruise and others were interested in starring, the final actor was chosen to Robert Downey Jr., who had a drug scandal before.

Although Robert Downey Jr. claimed that he had completely quit drugs, in the past ten years, many times and his current state, many people have questioned it, which also makes people curious about the reason for this decision, but Dr. Lee, who is in Seoul, South Korea, has not responded ......! —The Hollywood Reporter.

Of course, Lee Chung-hee is too lazy to respond to these reporters, and he doesn't need to explain what he decides to others.

Robert Downey Jr. completely quit drug abuse at the beginning of this year, and he also married the producer, which was the real beginning of his reform, and Lee Chung-hee also believed in him.

It's not good to take * drugs, but it's better than selling, and going to be a traitor, he ruined himself, since he can change it now, of course it's the best.

Moreover, the effect of the topic will undoubtedly make more people pay attention to "Iron Man", even if this series is destined to be successful, but more attention, when he comes forward to make a statement, it will definitely have a better effect.

After the acquisition of Marvel by the Imperial Group, Marvel has been split into two parts, one part of which is under Imperial Pictures and the other part is under Imperial Press.

Actually, Marvel is not having a good time now. Successful superheroes. Basically, they have sold the rights to the big screen to other companies.

For example, "Iron Man". The film shooting rights of this comic have been obtained by Universal in 90, but because of market prospects and other issues, this project has been shelved.

This is also very normal, many film and TV series production companies will buy the copyright, but the real ones to be filmed account for less than a few tenths, or even one percent.

There are works. After buying, it's normal to not shoot for the rest of your life.

"Iron Man" was like this, it was put all the time, and then, at the beginning of 96, 20th Century Fox Film Company became interested in this heroic figure, and also found Nicolas Cage, Tom Cruise and others, who were very popular at the time.

However, the project was established many times, but in the end it was still unsuccessful. Finally, the end of the last century. Quentin Tarantino has basically completed the script of "Iron Man", but 20th Century Fox Films, because of its cooperation with New Line Films, incidentally transferred the filming rights to the other party.

This brought Quentin Tarantino's relationship with 20th Century Fox to a freezing point for a while.

Now, "Iron Man" has returned to Marvel from a new line of films, or to Imperial Pictures.

Then, starting with "Iron Man", Marvel's superhero movies will become the biggest success in the entire world film industry in the next ten years, but at this time, basically no one realizes this.

"Iron Man" has entered the operation period of the production project, but that is only one of the films that Imperial Pictures will release next year, and for Lee Chung-hee, there is nothing special.

He still stayed in Seoul and officially began to prepare for the movie "The Two-Faced King", and he himself will play the leading role.

This news is more sensational than "Iron Man", after all, this is another film he wants to star in, and it is still an absolutely pure Korean movie, before, whether it was in "My Sassy Girlfriend", or "Sunshine Sisters", "Strange Her" and other Korean movies, he was just playing soy sauce.

And "Inception", in the final analysis, is still a Hollywood-style movie.

In this regard, not only the Korean people, but also the media of other countries are very interested, and Lee Chung-hee also held a small press conference on the production of "The Two-Faced King" by the way after a leisurely rest for more than a month.

However, although it is a press conference, except for the actor and director, the other candidates have not been decided.

The press conference was held in the afternoon, which allowed him to spend a leisurely morning, have lunch, take a lunch break, and play word games with these reporters during tea time.

Even if the first question has nothing to do with this conference, he doesn't care.

"What do you think about Robert Downey Jr., which is being discussed outside quite a bit now?"

Lee Chung-hee shrugged, "Don't ask me, you should first ask George Clooney, the director of "Good Night and Good Luck", how he could use an addict to make a film that was nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture!" ”

As soon as I saw his attitude, everyone knew that he was not very happy with this question, so he turned away, and at this time, the host also called his family, the reporter of the "People's Gazette".

"People's Gazette" is a newspaper officially distributed by Imperial Entertainment across the country this summer, and it is also a paper media that has been prepared since the beginning of last year and spent a year and a half to build.

Although it has only just started, it has received a lot of attention, after all, it was started by Dr. Li's company himself.

But the "People's Gazette" is still very low-key, at least for the time being, although with the circulation after the crazy gift, it is already similar to the "Central Daily" controlled by Samsung.

"I heard that in "The Two-Faced King", it is about the story of Gwanghae-kun, a king with mixed reputations in history, everyone is curious, why don't you choose the greater King Sejong to write a script and play that great character?"

"That's a good question?"

Lee Chung-hee smiled and gave the other party encouragement before he continued: "Well, just like you just said, King Sejong is very great, which will undoubtedly make everyone more picky, and I will be under a lot of pressure, and I think I should be cautious when I don't fully understand and master that great monarch."

As for Gwanghae-kun, in fact, I happened to see some wild histories and thought it was very interesting, and the two-sided nature of this character, in the drama, is also more conflicting tension, so that the imagination has more room to play.

Well, one more thing, what I'm writing now is not a serious biography of the emperor, but a story, an interesting story, and at the same time telling some life principles in the story, etc., if it's too strict, I don't want to, that's why I choose Gwanghae-kun......! ”

""The Two-Faced King" is a pure Korean movie, so what about Hollywood-style production, will there be it next year, some people say, your Hollywood works seem to be getting fewer and fewer?" ABC

"That's what you said, right?" Lee Chung-hee smiled dumbly, "Since 01, I have at least one Hollywood movie every year, and there are two at most, and people like me are already very prolific." ”

"You say that there is little Hollywood, and we also say that I have never made Korean films, and the British side, after "Charlotte Holmes", said that I should have some British movies, and Japan and China have long said that I should make some local characteristics,"

Lee Chung-hee shrugged, "I'm just alone!" ”

"However, everyone says that you can make a movie in just a month!" A reporter from the Los Angeles Times said: "So, six films a year only take six months!" ”

"You're a rookie, right?" Lee Chung-hee said with a smile: "But, man, since you are in this industry, you should know the most basic knowledge, a movie is not only the process of shooting, but also the preparation in the early stage, the production in the later stage, and so on."

I shoot fast because I don't want to waste the time and energy of the actors in the process of filming, there will be accidents outside the performance, so I will do more work in the early stage of preparation, the general director two or three months, I may take four or five months, and then, the production in the later stage also takes two to three months, now, you calculate, how long does a movie take, understand, if you understand, don't say such embarrassing words in the future......! ”

"'The Two-Faced King' is a more Korean movie, will it be released worldwide?"

"Of course," Lee Chung-hee nodded, "I think good movies know no borders," to be honest, "The Two-Faced King is not a particularly outstanding work, but it can't stand his current popularity."

In this era, fans are becoming more and more influential in the entertainment industry, and his popularity is even greater.

Therefore, from now on, it is time for him to slowly export Korean and Chinese culture to the world, and "The Two-Faced King" is just one of the small representatives.

In a word, according to the "New York Times", as long as he starred, filmmakers all over the world will happily pay for it without watching the sample film, and they are afraid that if they pay less, if they pay slowly, the opportunity will be gone.

This is caused by the madness of fans, to put it mildly, even if it is a super bad movie, there are definitely enough people to cheer for it.

"Can you tell us about your plans for next year?" BBC, "Will the success of Charlotte Holmes make you have more plans for the UK?" ”

Lee Chung-hee smiled, "Well, I'm not very clear about next year's affairs now, because this matter is not decided by me alone, and I still need my brokerage team, plus some relevant colleagues in my company to discuss, there will be details, that, probably around Christmas." ”

"Well, roughly speaking, "Avatar" will be released in the summer, this has been determined, and then this "Double-Faced King", in addition, everyone should also know that the record is something that I will spend a lot of time on next year, and even the year after next year, I will continue to make the lyrics and songs invited now."

Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled and shrugged, "Oh, there will probably be a love movie, well, just next year, I have already written the script, and I am quite excited, but because I am too excited, I have to calm myself down a little before I dare to officially try ......!" ”

Wow, as soon as he said this, others were even more excited, saying that he didn't seem to have been involved in the purest love movies in the past two years, and many fans still miss his previous works very much. (To be continued......)
