……
On March 20, on the empty round table on the official website of the Avengers, the horn sè on the seat was finally updated, and sitting in the first place was Samuel L. Jackson, the actor of the commander "One-Eyed Man" Nick Farry Horn Sè!
The commander of "One-Eyed" appeared in "Iron Man 2", which sold 1 billion at the box office last year, and he is also the initiator of the "strongest alliance in history". He believes that it is necessary to gather superheroes from all walks of life to save the world from the invasion of dark forces. So the "Avengers" came into being.
In addition, "Iron Man" Robert Downey Jr., "Thor" Chris Hemsworth, "Captain America" Chris Evans, "Hulk" Mark Ruffalo, and "Black Widow" Scarlett Johansson, who was highly recommended by Li Donglai, plus his own "Hawkeye" corner Sè, is complete.
On the same day, Marvel Studios' highly anticipated new film "The Avengers" officially started shooting in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. A group of film creators appeared together and participated in the start-up press conference
With the addition of such a super celebrity, even if there is nothing to do with Li Donglai, it will be one of the most anticipated movies by global fans in the summer of 2012.
Acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2009, The Avengers will become the first Marvel film to be marketed and distributed globally by Disney Studios as the rights are gradually recycled. The film is based on the manga of the same name, which has been published since 1963. It has always been one of the hottest comics sold by Marvel.
"The Avengers" is directed by Lee Dong-rae and written by Joss Whedon. Produced by Kevin Phigie, chairman of Marvel Studios, it is expected to be released worldwide on May 4 next year.
Joss Whedon is also a Hollywood celebrity. Li Donglai wrote a script with him for the first time, and both felt that they benefited a lot. Their thinking is the same, they all pursue fast-paced and coherent xìng, stimulate xìng, and require no urine spots throughout the text.
The filming of the blockbuster is widely implicated. Due to many contracts, although the film is distributed by Disney, Disney's logo xìng castle will not appear in the final credits. Instead, the 100-year-old Paramount Peak, a change that stemmed from an agreement signed between the two in October 2010.
Because Disney acquired Marvel, it got back many comic book rights.
As compensation for the loss of the global distribution rights of "The Avengers" and "Iron Man 3", Paramount will receive 8% of Disney's revenue from the release of "Avengers" and 9% of the revenue from "Iron Man 3"; Besides. Paramount also has the sole right of attribution for any marketing of the two films, which means that although Disney has the sole distribution rights for the two films in the world, it cannot add its own logo to the film.
So many big names joined. The value of the actor alone is astronomical. The film's previously announced initial budget was $220 million. Later, the design of the scene became bigger and bigger, and after calculating it, it was found that 220 million was far from enough, so it was immediately added to the budget of 250 million US dollars.
And this figure, most of the actors still join in the way of box office sharing, which reduces the premise of budget costs.
Phantom is also one of the investors, and they are very sincere to express their willingness to invest a sum of money to take risks together. Because this investment budget is really huge, if you don't get a box office of 1 billion. Even Disney is not confident that it can make money. In the end, the Phantom worked public relations, and also through guò under the efforts of many parties. Eventually, the Phantom was allowed to join, and they made a small $50 million bet.
As soon as the $250 million budget was announced, it still attracted the attention of the industry.
The hugely expensive 3D blockbuster "Tron: War" released this year has just lost money and even took off his pants, which shows that Hollywood is not so easy to make money. In fact, Hollywood releases new movies every day, and less than 24% of them actually make money from the North American box office.
Even in today's era of rampant 3D blockbusters, the investment of 250 million is very scary.
……
At today's press conference, many superhero props were placed early, such as Iron Man's red sè armor, Hulk's rubber molding, Captain America's styling, and so on.
The fans in the audience couldn't help but be excited in the passionate music, and many reporters were also at the scene.
The first to appear was "S.H.I.E.L.D." Samuel L. Jackson, who came to the microphone booth, greeted the audience first, and then took the lead in inviting his left and right hand partners, "...... Detective Cullison's actor Clark Gregg, and Black Widow Scarlett Johansson, whom you all know......" There were fierce screams at the scene, "Thor, Chris Hemsworth, and the first Avenger in anime history, Captain America, Chris Evans......"
Everyone appeared in regular clothes, and the two muscular men shook hands heavily when they met.
"Let me introduce you again, new member Tony Stark, he's finally here, scream......"
Then Robert Downey, a little with long hair, walked up with his hands in his trouser pockets, and as soon as he appeared, he leaked all kinds of domineering sideways, showing his super popularity. High-five and hug everyone one by one. S.H.I.E.L.D. smiled and asked him to preside, Donnie was not modest, walked to the podium, and said this cynically: "Oh~~ Listen to everyone, the audience should not step on it before I continue to speak." I know I'm looking a little weird today, but I'm playing as a humble guy because I'm joining this super punctual lineup. I didn't mean to deliberately mention other movies on this occasion, have you seen Inception? ”
The audience immediately screamed, "Inception" has many fans, and it is the same as the director of this film.
"This is probably the most ambitious movie I've ever seen, and eh, Marvel is going to capture all the most popular superheroes and make a movie, and that's the most ambitious movie I've ever seen...... Hey, hey, GOD, I don't know why I want to laugh. He suddenly let out a nervous chuckle, "Well, we're 100% behind this new addition, and you'd better welcome him with a round of applause." Let's have Mark Ruffalo, the long-lost actor of 'Hulk' Bruce Banner......"
"Hulk" this time abandoned the previous Hulk version of the starring role, and replaced it with this year's Oscar nominee for Best Supporting Actor Mark Ruffalo. Mark is not only an excellent actor, but also an excellent director and screenwriter. The production team re-chose Mark Ruffalo to play the Hulk, and felt that his restrained image was very similar to Bruce Banner.
Downey finally shouted: "The most important thing in an ambitious work is, of course, to find a soul character first, so who will it be?" Finally, we have a warm welcome, our new member 'Hawkeye' Li Donglai, who is also our director! Li Donglai! ”
Li Donglai also walked out with a smile and a smile in his home clothes, and the applause in the room was continuous.
He took the microphone and smiled, "OK, I'll give you a brief explanation." I have only one wish in my life, to make shocking movies, but this dream is no cooler than this movie. ”
In the midst of a chaotic scream, he shouted, "I have to thank Kevin Phage, the chairman of Marvel Studios, and Disney for trusting me so much to direct this film." And found such a dream team. This is the Avengers, the 'strongest ever' that everyone has to encounter. "To be honest, when they first found me, I thought it was a joke. I never thought they would be able to find so many big names to work with on this film, and I thought I might mess up this qiē. Because I was completely unprepared, especially when I was going to be an actor. I need your support (screaming)...... OK, great, thank you, I feel so much better! ”
After that, according to the process, everyone took pictures together, and then sat on the stage to be interviewed by reporters.
Fortunately, there is no reporter brain-dead this time, and he dares to slander Li Donglai on the scene whether he can play the role of Hawkeye.
When the press conference for the launch of "The Avengers" ended, Li Donglai's title as a great director of commercial films in the United States was confirmed.
Such a large lineup, such a daunting investment.
When the media and filmmakers were shouting crazy, many fans were looking forward to seeing how Li Donglai would spend the $250 million this time.
Since "Inception", he has frequently taken over super blockbusters. The investment of more than 200 million in "Inception" did not take long in the past, and then the investment in "Iron Man 2" approached 200 million. This time, "The Avengers" simply went directly to 250 million, and the huge investment handled was staggering.
Of course, with the power of such a large lineup, the word "Avengers" has also begun to appear frequently on newspaper TV, and various stories about the original comics have gradually become known to people.
People are speculating about what the plot of the movie will be?
No matter how much the outside world speculates, for everyone in the crew, filming has begun.
Li Donglai is no stranger to 3D shooting, but the progress in the opening stage is still slow, and the ubiquitous special effects are a headache.
Li Donglai's filming focuses on smoothness, so it is even more necessary to have a strong behind-the-scenes production team. This scene has not yet started filming, and the next scene will be ready. And there are too many things that need to be involved in this qiē, and most of the stories take place on the streets of New York, so you can imagine the difficulty of filming.
Heraldic also joined the crew as an assistant to the director after dealing with domestic affairs. Before he came, he had a good chance of learning English. The first time he approached the special effects masterpiece zuò, he was a little nervous, but more excited. At the same time, he is like a sponge, wanting to absorb more knowledge, and then go back and instill it into his own movies like a recharge. (To be continued......)
