The filming plan for the sequel to "Red Dawn" was soon known to the public.

DreamWorks has filled in the name of this sequel "Red Dawn Red Alert" in the new planning table! Seeing such a name, almost all the media and the public are speculating whether this film is going to be a war movie.

When they saw the list of directors, screenwriters, and actors, they were even more excited.

Alex's name is prominent, he wears many hats, he is both a director, a screenwriter and an actor. This situation is simply unprecedented, Alex has a habit of making movies, that is, he only shoots the first part, and basically does not participate in the subsequent sequels, at most he doubles as a consultant.

Now in this "Red Dawn" series of movies, Alex is not satisfied with the first film, and he will continue to shoot the second part, and it is also a trinity of writing, directing, and acting! What's even more exciting is that in this movie, the three Carpenter siblings will all star, and they are all important actors.

When the news broke, those fans were almost driven crazy with excitement. For a long time, people have been very interested in the collaboration of the three Carpenter siblings, whether it is a record, a TV show or a movie, as long as their siblings appear, they will immediately attract a lot of attention.

In fact, not long after the release of this movie, there was news that a sequel would be made. The audience is also eagerly awaiting, waiting for DreamWorks to shoot a sequel. Unexpectedly, after waiting for nearly a year, the presidents of the United States were assassinated, and they didn't wait for the sequel to this movie, and there was no relevant news.

This is not a sequel to the movie. Alex originally wanted to shoot early, he likes to do everything at once, and he doesn't do it one at a time, like squeezing toothpaste.

Originally, when he made the movie, it was just to promote the Internet plan, and when he wanted to make a sequel, Richard and Cullen had to play roles in the sequel. had no choice but to revise the sequel script, and then let Bruce Lee teach the actors some basic kung fu moves.

By about the time, Kennedy had been assassinated.

This time. Even if there is more free time. It is also impossible to shoot a sequel and release it out. Everyone is staring at the JFK murder case, where is the time to focus on other things. Even the movie "Red Dawn", which predicted the killing of the president, did not dare to mess around in this limelight.

After the dust settles on the presidential case and the social order in the United States returns to normal. Alex, for his part, also escaped the limelight of reporters. That's when he planned to shoot a sequel to the movie.

This time. He not only wanted to make movies, but also games, comics, and novels.

The game has been handed over to Blizzard to get first, and as for the comics, Marvel has also arranged for Marvel to organize people to draw it. In terms of novels, Alex did not plan to write on his own, but recruited some third-rate authors to write the storyline according to a unified story background framework.

After all of this was arranged, Alex went back to filming the movie.

In this society, the influence of movies is far stronger than that of comics, novels and games, and even in the 21st century, the influence of movies is still very strong. Many comics, novels, and games are made into movies only after they have gained a certain popularity. It wasn't until the movie was released that the popularity really peaked.

Alex is paying attention to the same thing!

Focusing on movies, supplemented by other comics, novels, and games, the influence of each theme is expanded from various peripherals. Now that the popularity of "Red Dawn" is quite high, and the name is also very loud, he will not be brain-dead to start a new series and attract the audience from scratch to accumulate popularity.

However, with the current level of film special effects skills, it is really a headache to want to make a large-scale war movie for future generations. What's more, he can't make a sequel into a war documentary, there must be a storyline in it.

At first, Alex scratched his head very much, and he didn't know what to make up a story, so he put the sequel plan on hold for many months. It wasn't until now that he had the idea to describe the changes in an ordinary American family after the upheaval of the war.

In the sequel to the film, Alex is no longer Agent Mike, but plays a soldier who has just returned home from the battlefield in Vietnam to visit his family, only to encounter a Soviet invasion. In addition to his father, he had a younger brother and sister, during which time his father died for resisting the invasion.

In order to take revenge, and at the same time to awaken their compatriots, who were ruled by the Soviet Union, they began a hard guerrilla war.

The selling point of this movie is still the science fiction elements and kung fu action, as well as the family concept and affection of Americans, love and so on. It is a movie that is very much in line with the mainstream appetite, and the shooting cost will not be too high except for some big scenes at the beginning.

Due to the depiction of a local battle scene, the protagonist Mike and the number one villain of the first part will only appear as background characters, and will not participate in the interaction with the main character. This can lead to a lot of disappointment, after all, the audience wants to see the villain played by Bruce Lee meet Alex again, and their previous two frequent duels are still talked about.

On the set of "Red Alert", Alex directs a group of actors, all of whom are soldiers from the U.S. Army, but at this time they play the mighty Red Army soldiers.

"After these people walk over, then the magnetic explosion infantry!" Alex spoke to the actors, gesturing to the special infantry units next to him wearing steel armor and marked with scythes and hammers.

Known as the "Magnetic Explosion Infantry", these units are capable of attacking enemies with powerful magnetic energy waves, which are generated by the portable magnetic blast coils they are equipped with. In the movie, there are many scenes that show their power, and they are a very terrifying class.

In the setting, the magnetic explosion infantry is a very valuable unit, so the protagonists really face only one or two, not many. However, this is already a headache, because in addition to not being afraid of being crushed by the tank army, the magnetic explosion infantry is in the event of an emergency power shortage. The Magnetic Blaster can also recharge the base's Magnetic Storm Coil, allowing it to continue to be used to defend against enemy forces.

They filmed the military as the Soviet Red Army marched into the city after it invaded the United States.

The magnetic explosion infantry was followed by Apocalypse tanks, helicopter gunships, MiGs and Kirov airboats, among others. All the Soviet army appearances were based on red, giving it a chilling feel that was both cold and bloody.

These weapons and equipment that are ahead of the times are designed by Alex with detailed drawings, and then handed over to the special effects team and props team to make them. In order to achieve the desired effect, DreamWorks invested millions of dollars in the production of props in this film. But. The results are pretty good. At least it makes people feel very realistic when they see it, that's the same thing.

In this film, in addition to the Soviet army, there is also the Vietnamese army, which is in line with the background of the times. as well as catering to the needs of an American audience. After all, this time. The Americans also fought the Viet Cong in Vietnam to the death. The Vietnamese are sworn enemies of the Americans.

Alex arranged the storyline of the story of the invasion of the United States by the Soviets and Vietnamese.

Then in this film, Asian faces are indispensable. This has enriched the elements of the film a lot and attracted the attention of many foreign audiences. Especially in Southeast Asia, people in this region basically only watch Hong Kong and Japanese movies, and the power of Hollywood movies has not yet been able to radiate in, but this film by DreamWorks should be able to make history.

Although the number one villain played by Bruce Lee was rarely photographed, Alex still arranged for Bruce Lee to be the martial arts instructor and worked with the camera crew throughout the process. At this time, Bruce Lee is no longer the former Wuxia Ameng, he not only worked as a screenwriter but also as a director and filmed many kung fu films.

These kung fu films sold well in the United States, and although they didn't win the box office, they were basically able to make a lot of money, and they repeatedly broke box office records in Hong Kong, Japan, Southeast Asia, and other places.

In the eyes of others, it is inevitable that Bruce Lee can achieve such results.

With Alex's support and DreamWorks' resources, even a near-miss director can make a name for himself, not to mention that Bruce Lee himself is also versatile, able to write, direct, and act! In addition, the kung fu craze is booming in the United States, cultivating a large market group, and every kung fu movie will be watched in the cinema.

Because of Alex, Bruce Lee was excavated several years in advance, and kung fu movies are much hotter than in the original history. Seeing such an opportunity, the Hong Kong film company is ready to move, and they also want to come over and get a piece of the pie.

At first, they wanted to hire Bruce Lee over, but it turned out that he had already been taken over by DreamWorks and signed a ten-year contract. What's more, Bruce Lee is doing well in Hollywood, and there is no reason to go back to Hong Kong to swim in that little pool.

In desperation, Hong Kong film companies had no choice but to find their own "Bruce Lee" in the mainland, the most daring of which was the Shaw Brothers Film Company, which invested huge sums of money more riskily than the Great Wall Film Company and Phoenix Film Company, and made a lot of kung fu movies at once, wanting to bring out more well-known martial arts stars than Bruce Lee.

As a result, Shaw Brothers followed suit and suddenly grew into one of the largest film companies in Hong Kong. Its influence spread throughout the Chinese community, and many films were sold to Taiwan, Japan, and Southeast Asia, making a lot of money.

Seeing this inspired Shaw Brothers to have an even more ambitious goal, they wanted to land in Hollywood. Do everything possible to break into the international market with your own films, this time when filming "Red Alert", DreamWorks took the initiative to cooperate with Shaw Brothers under the guidance of Alex in order to find a large number of Asian actors.

If you really want to sleep, someone will send a pillow, and Shaw Brothers was overjoyed, and sent all the martial artists and actors on his side to be selected and used by DreamWorks. It's just that Alex wasn't very interested in the personnel they sent, and he didn't find out who he knew, so he found another actor in the United States to play the role of the number one villain in this movie.

The actor is also Chinese, and he is quite famous, when Alex saw his photo, he immediately remembered: "Isn't this nicknamed "Traitor Jian"? This guy is a veteran traitor in Cantonese movies! It's done, let him be the number one villain! ”

In this way, Shi Jian became Captain Li in the movie "Red Alert", and he is the number one villain in this movie. When the news came out that he would play the main role, everyone thought that Shi Jian would become another internationally famous actor after Bruce Lee.

Alex's vision is not covered, as long as the movie stars he values can soar in the end. (To be continued......)
