Bruce Lee biographical film, Wu Yuan decided to include it in the follow-up shooting plan after careful consideration.

But he hasn't figured out exactly when or how to shoot it.

Anyway, this is not a copied movie, you need to make your own script, you don't need to consider the influence of "copying", you can do it whenever you want.

Although there is this plan, Wu Yuan feels that this movie should not be made too early.

He still has a lot of work to do next.

After the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" is completed, a literary film will be made at the end of the year to win the award, and next year's focus will be on the release of "Gravity".

After the release of "Gravity", the "Ace Agent" series should also start filming, and whether he will direct this series himself has not yet been decided.

Even if he doesn't direct "Ace Agent" himself, Wu Yuan plans to start a commercial film at the end of 2008.

The era of Marvel superheroes is coming.

"Iron Man" was released worldwide in 2008, and after "Avatar", Hollywood will enter the era of IP blockbusters, and most of the commercial blockbusters that can sell box office are new works or sequels of various classic IPs.

There was not much room left for Wu Yuan to choose.

If he doesn't make a commercial blockbuster in Hollywood, I'm afraid he won't have much chance to shoot it in the future, unless he goes to be a tool for Marvel.

Bruce Lee's biographical film, it may not be until at least 2010 before Wu Yuan can start to prepare.

Keeping this matter in mind for the time being, Wu Yuan chatted with Kayla for a few more words, and saw that Liu Yifei was almost rehearsing, so he started the official shooting.

Perhaps, as Kayla said, every actor in Huaxia is indeed very good at fighting.

At least that's how the current actors are.

treats the play very seriously, Liu Yifei plays in person, and the moves are all in place, the movements are sharp and handsome, the posture is perfect, and it is very pleasing to the eye.

Wu Yuan looked at the monitor carefully and carefully, and was very emotional in his heart.

This kind of sharp, fist-to-flesh, real knife and gun fighting scene will basically disappear from domestic entertainment after ten years.

is different from the current rampant action scenes, whether it is a movie or a TV series, there are lively and real and sharp scenes.

Ten years later, whether it is a movie or a TV series, when the hero and heroine come to a fight scene, they basically stick their fingers in place, and then all kinds of special effects and spells come on.

The actors only need to be in place, or they are hung in mid-air in concave shapes.

With a wave of their sleeves, the dragons will go backwards and vomit blood, which is called a simple and easy.

In person, you punch me and fight with a sword?

What are you kidding, how can our brother (sister) with fine skin and tender meat do such a hard and dangerous thing?

The kung fu drama that Huaxia is proud of has become extinct.

In Wu Yuan's impression, the last movie he watched had a fight in the style of a millennial martial arts film, that is, "Embroidered Spring Knife".

After "Embroidered Spring Knife", there is no more fist-to-flesh fighting.

The martial arts coaching industry is basically withering, and there is no successor.

Looking at Liu Yifei, who was under the guidance of the martial arts instructor in front of him, brandishing a Miao knife and rushing to kill in the pirate group, Wu Yuan sighed slightly.

After all, the star is going to be eliminated by the times, this is the general trend, and he can't resist it.

I hope that before the star is eliminated, he can train Liu Yifei to become an excellent actress in literature and drama, and occupy a market in Hollywood.

There is really no future for being a star!

Compared with the filming of the previous two films, Wu Yuan is really familiar with the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" this time.

Although Depp is more floating and more capable of playing big names because of the global box office of the second part of the billion-dollar bill, under his suppression, the filming of the crew is still extremely smooth and fast.

The crew built a 60-foot-tall replica of the first half of the "Black Pearl" in Utah, and the second half was replaced by a trailer for the filming of the "Black Pearl Shadow", which was expected to shoot for 19 days, but it only took 4 days to complete, which shows how well the shooting went well.

It's just that the duration of the third part has become longer again, so even if the filming went well, it still took the crew more than four months to shoot the film from the Caribbean to Los Angeles to Utah.

On June 18, 2007, the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" was officially announced in the Los Angeles Disney No. 3 studio.

Liu Yifei, who followed the group throughout the whole process and participated in the finale scene, stood beside Wu Yuan with a bright smile and left a finale photo with him.

At the same time, the news of the completion of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" also quickly spread in the global entertainment media.

The level of development of the Internet today is not the same as that of 2000.

With the help of the fast Internet, fans around the world who followed this movie the next day knew the news of the completion of the movie, which was called an expectation.

Thanks to the high box office and high reputation of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" around the world, this sequel can be said to have been given high hopes by countless fans.

It's just that they don't know that if it weren't for the change of director, and Wu Yuan was delayed last year, in fact, they would have been able to meet with "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" in May this year.

This time "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" has indeed made a big change, even if Disney's action is fast, it is estimated that it will be released until the end of the year or next year.

Disney prefers to release it in May next year, although it doesn't need so much time to do post-production, but the schedule at the end of the year and the beginning of next year is not very good.

A movie like "Pirates of the Caribbean", which has the popularity of its predecessor and countless fans around the world, is not suitable for going to the popular Christmas file and other blockbusters to grab the market, and it is suitable for itself to occupy an off-season month.

For example, in May, June, and July, when blockbusters are not released.

"Daniel, you're really not going to pick up Pirates of the Caribbean 4 anymore?"

After the finale banquet, before Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei packed their luggage and prepared to return to China, Jerry suddenly killed him.

Faced with Jerry's sudden inquiry, Wu Yuan was very puzzled, "Isn't this something that has been said a long time ago?" ”

"I'll shoot these three, and after these three are finished, you will change the director yourself, isn't Disney also very happy?"

When filming the second part before, Jerry already knew that Wu Yuan only planned to fulfill the contract of these three parts and would not continue to shoot this series.

Disney also thinks this decision is quite correct, after all, Hollywood does have a trilogy curse, and no director can shoot four films in a series in a row, and three is generally the limit.

Since last year, Disney has been looking for a director to succeed Wu Yuan.

Why is Jerry suddenly asking about this again?

"Daniel, Disney and I have thought about it carefully, the Pirates of the Caribbean series can't do without you." Jerry showed a sincere expression and grabbed Wu Yuan's hand.

Some were disgusted by his appearance, Wu Yuan broke free of his hair in disgust, and rolled his eyes: "Jerry, we've known each other for several years, so don't come to this set." ”

"Tell me, is there a problem with this project?"

"Let me guess."

"Is it that Orlando and Kayla are not going to continue filming the series and are quitting Pirates of the Caribbean?"

"And Depp opened his mouth again and offered a sky-high salary, if he doesn't satisfy him, he doesn't plan to stay?"

Jerry smirked, embarrassed by the stabbing on his face, "Hey, Daniel, you're so smart." ”

Wu Yuan rolled his eyes again.

But isn't it, he opens the full-picture perspective, how can he not know the future of the series "Pirates of the Caribbean".

He even knows that the wife that Depp will marry in the future will also destroy Depp, and by the way, destroy the blockbuster series of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

"Daniel, our collaboration is so good, that's why I won't talk to you about that nonsense."

Jerry straightened his expression and said with a straight face: "Orlando and Kayla have confirmed that they will not join the follow-up sequel, they don't want their images to be completely bound to Elizabeth and Will, so that their future drama is basically over." ”

"And Depp, you know, he's really too arrogant, and he likes to play big names after becoming popular, whether we can talk about him again, we can't be sure."

"That way, you're the only one left on the initial team of Pirates of the Caribbean."

"If you don't take over the fourth part, then the series may be completely over."

"Daniel, you don't want the super IP you spent so much effort to create, just end up in such a hurry, right?"

"Stay, let's move on to the fourth part."

"As long as you are here, even if Depp does not choose to return to the fourth part in the end, we can start over, without Depp, we can shoot another Pirates of the Caribbean story, let him replace Depp and start a new journey!"

"As long as you're here, I'm sure the Pirates of the Caribbean series won't end!"

As the founding director of this series, Wu Yuan does have prestige in the hearts of Pirates of the Caribbean fans, although Depp's popularity is even higher and is the real soul core of this series.

But as long as Wu Yuan is still there, even if Depp doesn't act in the end, with Wu Yuan's "Dinghai Shen Needle" effect, at least half of the fans can stay and continue to support the series.

There may be no way to achieve such a good result as a global box office of more than one billion dollars, but there is still hope for three or four hundred million dollars.

This is at least better than Depp and Wu Yuan both leaving and letting this series be destroyed directly, right?

Disney is fighting for Depp to stay, and Jerry is fighting for Wu Yuan.

As long as one of the two can be obtained, then the follow-up sequel will have confidence.

However, Wu Yuan is really not interested in "Pirates of the Caribbean 4", this series has brought him enough popularity and popularity, and also sent him to the billion box office club.

If he continues to stay in this series, it is impossible to make a breakthrough in the box office results of the second part, which will only be bad for him, not good.

Retreating from the rapids is the right thing to do.

"Jerry, I'm sorry, I've already got my film plans for next year and the year after, and I really don't have time to take over Pirates of the Caribbean 4."

Wu Yuan spread his hands: "You know, I have made this decision since last year, and I have planned for my career in the next few years. ”

"You'd better ask for another master."

"Hollywood brings together the best commercial directors in the world, and I'm sure Disney will find a better director than me to take over the series."

"If we have the opportunity in the future, let's work together again."
