"Incredible! 'Lovely Bones' Scramble Result: VIY Beats Peter Jackson" - Yahoo News

Christmas has just passed, and there are a lot of news developments in the film industry, such as a review and summary of the year, plans and prospects for the new year...... The new situation of the high-profile film genius Ye Wei, "a number of independent new projects" has finally been announced.

What a great Christmas and New Year's gift!

Kelsey, Debbie, Haylei...... Donner, Ellis, Baretta...... This time, almost all VIY fans were not disappointed, it was boiling on social networks, it was too pleasantly surprised, Ye Wei's domineering public statement on the blog before the festival was not a shout, but a ......

BANG！！！！！！

The-Lovely-Bones，WIN!!!

Everyone said and thought that Ye Wei had lost this competition and lost to the sea, but the result was the opposite.

This bad boy, won.

This project, which has been established for five and a half years since its establishment, has been tossed and adapted by the original author, and the Peter Jackson team has been involved for two years, and Ye Wei has only been two months.

And such a heavy story, how could it be that a family and a group of people grow up?!Ye Wei, who is less than 18 years old, defeated 44-year-old Peter Jackson, who has a happy family and two children, after making a violent and hurting people?

That's Peter Jackson! Does the greatness of the Lord of the Rings of New Zealand need to be said more?

Moreover, the project budget revealed by the Jackson team is more than 60 million, and Ye Wei is only announcing the grade of 30 million now! He won with twice the budget.

Peter Jackson's fans can't accept it! Even the fans who want him to make blockbusters can't accept it, it's a shame! The noble Peter the Great actually lost to Ye Wei like this......

Neutral fans were also shocked, and most of the news headlines in the media would be marked with exclamation points, and the content and comments would use words such as "unbelievable", "unexpected", "reversed", etc., and "Alice Siebird was fascinated by a child prodigy" was a very accurate description.

What kind of ecstasy did VIY perform?

Alice Siebold told "Variety" so movingly: "We had a long talk, and I knew all about his beating, I was a person who hated violence very much, but I forgave him. All I can say is that he is a very emotional man, and his respect, equality and gentlemanliness towards women are rare. ”

Speaking about the TLB adaptation rights, she added: "He has a moving insight, he loves Susie, which makes me extremely relieved and relieved to give him this story, and I am completely moved." ”

But why? The Peter Jackson team's insights don't work? reputation, budget, participation time, life experience...... Everything!

"A big thank you to Peter for their contribution to TLB over the past two years, it's not that they're not good enough. Siebold uses humor to address this poignant question: "I just thought Susie would have liked Wei, he was really young, handsome, talented, and not married." ”

In the midst of the controversy, the dust has settled!

This best-selling novel with a sensitive subject matter will be brought to the big screen by Ye Wei.

According to reports, Ye Wei will recently complete the private acquisition of TLB adaptation rights, and he has already revealed that he will serve as the director, producer and screenwriter of the project, and it is even rumored that he will personally play Susie's Asian boyfriend "Ray" during his lifetime.

However, there is no exact news about what producers TLB will invest and cooperate with, when the release schedule will be, and whether it will be Ye Wei's next film.

Because it's really a new project!

Soul-Surfer，STILL-ON!!!

Bethany Hamilton wrote on her blog: "VIY has talked to me about the beating, and I know he did something wrong, but he's not a bad person, and the other person is at fault first. God has taught us how to love and forgive, and I will not be angry with him for that, and I hope that he will be at peace in this matter sooner rather than later. ”

It's definitely a counterattack to all kinds of rumors recently, but all the secrets can do seems to be exciting, SS is still going on! There is also no fixed schedule, I don't know how to make zuò, I only know that Ye Wei will take over the three major creative positions of production director and editor.

Not just exciting, but shocking!

Even die-hard fans who are familiar with VIY will exclaim What-The-Fuck! Perhaps there are only a few people in the world who are not surprised.

Along with these announcements, there is another project, Winter'sBone, BEGIN!!

"Winter's Bones" is an adaptation of Daniel Woodrell's yet-to-be-unpublished literary film project, the story of a poor girl in the mountains looking for her father.

Is it a bone again, is it a girl's theme, is it a literary drama, is it an independent film?

The media and the public can't help but be stunned, just talking about it? Is it the kind of project that digs a hole, doesn't work out for several years, and naturally miscarries?

In fact, he is helping Woodrill build momentum to sell books?

"When I read the first chapter of it, I was determined to make it into a movie. Its bleak and cold words took me into another world, and I watched how a young girl was strong and unyielding in the test of fate, unable to express my feelings, let's use a movie. Ye Wei said this on his personal blog, which was quoted by the media.

Amazing news one after another, but he didn't say much, thanking Alice Sieberd, thanking Bethany Hamilton, thanking those who were tolerant and trusting him, but not much.

It's enough to be in an uproar, which of the three projects comes first, which comes later, and when will we see it?

"I'm not going back to high school, so I have a big chunk of free time. Ye Wei revealed his decision to drop out of school to the media for the first time, "I can't be idle these times, I love to make movies, so make movies, next year I will do my best to make these three projects, if you are happy, you will see three strong, kind and beautiful girls on the screen next year, Bethany, Susie and Rui." ”

In this regard, he emphasized: "Making three good films a year, this is my goal, and I will try my best to achieve it." ”

It's not a joke! It's not an exploitation film! It's not a long time in the making!

The first reaction of movie fans is not excitement, not surprise, April Fool's Day is coming in advance, but the New Year has not yet passed!

VIY will produce three films in 2006 within the next year, "Soul Surfer", "Lovely Bones", and "Winter Bones", and will also participate in the production of "Carrie the Witch".

It's not a question of completion, it's all about the budget, is there really an investor investing in it, and what will be the quality of the shot?

Lionsgate announced almost simultaneously that it would participate in the investments in SS and TLB and that it would "work to win the rights to their distribution," with Lionsgate CEO Jon Philheimer putting it succinctly: "It's a big deal." And "We are honored." ”

Not only Lionsgate, but also a number of independent film companies including Pretong and the Weinstein brothers, independent brands of major studios such as Fox Searchlight and Focus, as well as invisible predators like Amperin Entertainment, are all interested in investing in Ye Wei.

Counting the North American box office alone, Ye Wei's current rate of return is 40 times that of the horror, and if he invests 1 yuan, he can receive 40 yuan at the box office. Insiders in the industry sighed: "The genius is crazy, but he is not dead, and he still has huge investment value." ”

The situation suddenly reversed!

Rejected all commercial film contracts, rejected large checks, rejected Hollywood, VIY, Endeavour!

"Three movies a year, that's what VIY does!" shouted Doodle75. "HAHAHA, HE'S GOT TO THINK THE HOLLYWOOD GUYS ARE STUPID AND CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT!" SMILING ZESTO. "Our prodigy is in berserk mode! Sit down!" MikeFJR shouted. "I doubt it's like VIY is sprinkling, is he okay?" Seemmad wondered......

Whether it works or not needs to be verified by time, there are already more pages of these three projects on IMDb, and there are also more of them in the list of works on Ye Wei's personal page, all with a parenthetical "pre-production" of pre-production, and there is not much information when you click on it, and the Cast column is still blank.

If it does, the names of the actors will be displayed there.

When Ye Wei's three projects surfaced, the next hot topic became, who will be the leading actors? "Bethany", "Susie", and a mountain girl "Rui" who doesn't know who?

If Peter Jackson directs, there really is no such topic, but a handsome director who is about to turn 18 years old will naturally have scandals.

Although Ye Wei already has a girlfriend. The gossip media during the Christmas holiday does not rest, TMZ news, Toronto people photographed Ye Wei and Nina Dubov skating in Nathan Phila Square on Christmas Eve, and in the relatively clear mobile phone photos, the two were holding hands and skating and laughing, looking very happy.

This undoubtedly shattered the previous breakup rumors, and the relationship between the two was not affected by the beating, and they were still a sweet couple.

But it does not hinder the excitement of the media public, talented and beautiful women are the eternal passion of human beings, even if they don't date, there are too many topics in their careers alone, how many young talents are there? There are many in the field of music, and there are only one geniuses in the film right now, like concentrating all the strength.

He never let down the good deeds.

There is also a bomb news announced at the same time, the industry has been blown up, and the industry has also been blown up!

"Ye Wei will hold a talent show for a number of new projects for the heroine/supporting actress cast" - "The Hollywood Reporter":

"Ye Wei announced three new project plans for 2006, although there is no script yet, the project investor has not yet been determined, and there is a great possibility of shelving.

But he acted quickly, and he couldn't wait to choose the actress and the supporting actress actors, these are all girl characters. He announced that a draft will be held in late January to find suitable candidates, at an undecided date.

Girls who want to participate should get ready to star in the film of this talented director, and maybe you will be the next hot star. 』

The news was widely reported, with media coverage such as "Hollywood Reporter" and "Behind the Scenes", which are mainly aimed at industry professionals, as well as media outlets such as Entertainment Weekly and the film edition of "Los Angeles Times", as if it were the casting of "Harry Potter" and "Spider-Man".

Not every project can have this kind of attention, which is really new and exciting.

It is indeed a rare opportunity, not to mention "Rui", "Bethany" and "Susie" are already in demand, plus VIY. Nina Dobrev has risen to prominence, Abigier Bryslin has a high probability of being nominated for an Oscar, and Anna Sophia Robb is already a popular child star.

Three projects and three heroines, there is something to fight for.

There are even entertainment websites that make amazing headlines like "The Little Tyrant Chooses the Princess".

However, there are also a lot of doubts in the media, quoting an agent as saying "For well-known actors, the draft is too rude", and he is not optimistic that there will be well-known actors to participate, like Emma Watson + Ye Wei, who has been fried for a long time, it is impossible, unless there is a special audition.

Watson is a superstar among teenage actors, and she must be specially invited to act in a movie, and if she wants to audition, the two sides will talk again.

No matter how many projects are invited, you can't invite them to audition, your agent can't pass a pass, and you can't get popularity if you want to, at most you can add a behind-the-scenes footage and add a piece of "What role once invited Emma Watson to audition and was rejected". Draft? with those nobodies? For J.K. Rowling's sake!

Not to mention Watson, only new actors, young actors, and actors who have no agent will run to the show.

Ye Wei probably can only choose some new faces. Many agents such as WME and ICM replied to the investigation of "Variety", "This is exactly what he wants." "But there will be no fewer people participating in this talent show, and VIY can attract countless girls. "Brokerage companies are waiting for the results, and those selected by Ye Wei may become stars. ”

※※

In the United Kingdom, after learning of the news of the draft, Emma Watson called SAA's agent.

"I'm going to participate in Ye Wei's character draft. ”

"Emma, your schedule ......"

"I don't care about the schedule for now, and then discuss if I have the intention. ”

"Ye Wei has been crazy and stinky recently, and it is not a good thing to have anything to do with him. You don't need to participate in auditions to get roles, he didn't even invite you! I don't know if this is his hype, the roles have already been decided. ”

Emma Watson had already decided that she would meet Ye Wei, a film genius, for a while, no matter what her agent said, "I want to participate." ”

I'll be 16 years old in April next year, and it's time to play something else.

"Little lady, I have to warn you, that guy beats women!"

"What's wrong with women? It must be wrong for a man to beat a woman? It's okay for a woman to beat a man? 'Women are weak, women can't fight,' this is sexism! Men can beat women, and women can beat men. Can you beat Hillary Swank? I'm glad Ye Wei doesn't think like you. ”

"Sorry, you're right......"

......

Los Angeles.

"Draft?" After hearing the news, Dakota Johnson's heart moved, and the idea of participating could not be dissipated as soon as it arose.

When she was 10 years old, she made a cameo role in "Crazy Alabama" directed by her stepfather Antonio Banderas and starring her mother, and she has not acted again, but she is interested in becoming an actor in the future, and she will probably be an actor.

She will be 17 years old on her birthday in October next year, and her biggest achievement is to be the Miss Golden Globe Award this year. The moment of VIY's nomination was read by her, his movie was so good, of course she wanted to play his new work......

Attend!

At the Golden Globe Awards dinner on the 16th of next month, I will first find an opportunity to ask Ye Wei what the situation is.

I really want to have sex with him.

......

Los Angeles, after knowing the flurry of new news, Liz Olsen laughed for a while, it's funny, three movies a year, it's so cool!

The draft will be a good opportunity, or a good opportunity that you like. I want to continue to study drama, and I have the opportunity to go to Russia to further my studies in Stanislavsky's ideas in the future, but it is almost enough to be a B corner on Broadway, and I will be 17 years old in February next year, and I have not been able to go on the stage, which is not interesting.

Go to his draft party and fight for the role, die to Hollywood, long live independent films!

Rui didn't know what Bethany and Susie were saying, she was more interested in Susie, and Susie was more challenging.

How would he shoot a rape-rape scene? Nude-play? Liz thought about it, no problem, no problem to dedicate herself to art.

She decided to wear a set of men's style clothes to participate, like saying to Ye Wei, "You have made me so manly", but how to start when introducing yourself?

"Jesus, Walter!"?

......

When Ye Wei announced the three projects, Emma Roberts let out a long sigh, "What's wrong with "The Other World"? So warm, beautiful, and humorous!

His favorite novels were put aside by him, and it was uncomfortable. It's uncomfortable, of course, to participate in that draft, like TLB and "Winter's Bones", she knew it first!

Without Liz, she wanted to play Susie, because she really could play "Ray", and asked him that Siebold did ask for it!

What are you thinking about? He plays Ray, she plays Susie, that's good, at least one kiss!

Mr. Harvey? Who cares.

will be 15 years old in February next year, and she will play Susie...... That's really the best birthday present.

......

"Wei!" Denver, Anna Sophia excitedly called Wei, "I'm going to participate in your draft!Can I play Susie?"

"I want to ...... No, not in terms of age. "Wei's voice is a little low, do you have a cold?

"Why? I'll be 13 next year, and Susie will be 14 when she dies!"

"On December 8 next year, you will be 13 years old, and you were 12 years old before. ”

"What does that matter?"

"The relationship is that you are too small, and your appearance can't play Susie. ”

"No ......"

"Yes, but you can try Lynsie, maybe. ”

Anna felt quite disappointed, but when she asked Master Gia more about it, because she was too busy to talk on the phone, she was relieved to hear how Gia was answered.

Here's how Master Gia recounted:

"Boy, can I play something?"

"Play Mr. Harvey, go for you. ”

"You have to do this!?"

"Not necessarily, but there's no need to show mercy to my assistant. ”

It doesn't sound like he's in a good mood.

......

The well-known or unknown actors who can play girls in age and appearance are alarmed.

Actor dream, star dream, model, Ye Wei's fan fan, Ye Wei's admirer......

Haydn Panettiere, who will be 17 next year, told her agent, "I'll go for it." ”

"It's okay to have fun. Next year, the 18-year-old Ramo Willis decided that although Ye Wei is very faceless, after all, he made the old man angry and went to make a show.

"Ask Ye Wei, can I participate. "Next year's 16-year-old Kristen Stewart instructed his agent," his reply told me not to miss a word. ”

At the end of next year, 18-year-old Emily Browning intends to participate, who would have thought that the boy she saw on the set two years ago would become a teenager director? The film industry is like this, a very small person, because one or two movies, can reach the top of the industry, or fall from the top of the industry to the abyss.

She called her agent, "I want to participate in Ye Wei's draft, but I have a little misunderstanding with him." ”

......

"I've got to do this, here's my chance!"

Hearing that Ye Wei was going to hold a talent show, the girl was excited, she will be 16 years old in August next year, and she began to chase her dream of being an actor at the age of 14.

However, she is still confident, her performance is getting better and better, and she knows how to audition more and more, this is the best opportunity!

is not aimed at a specific role, she is more confident that she can be appreciated by Ye Wei, everything is difficult at the beginning, just get a role, the role of any project is good, even if it is a trick, as long as a name appears in the cast, Jennifer Lawrence, it is good. Challenging.

How would he shoot a rape-rape scene? Nude-play? Liz thought about it, no problem, no problem to dedicate herself to art.
