Chapter 747: "Suicide Squad" is released
Outside the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, Cindy Crawford stepped out of the courtesy car in full costume and was immediately surrounded by the cheers and screams of fans on both sides of the red carpet.
Today is Wednesday, December 14th.
The day of the premiere of another blockbuster "Suicide Squad" in the DC Cinematic Universe series.
After the third Victoria's Secret show, Cindy moved to the East Coast to start preparing for "Fair Games", which will start filming early next year.
Although Simon Westeros made it clear that he was not optimistic about this movie, Cindy Crawford was not willing to give up in the end.
The heroine of a blockbuster movie with a production cost of $50 million is not so easy to get.
However, Cindy also conveyed Westeros's attitude to Joe Silver, the producer of "Fair Game", that no one in Hollywood will not pay attention to the opinion of a young tycoon, not to mention that it is a big project involving a $50 million investment, and the script has been revised, and it is said that Sylvo has personally communicated with Westeros to obtain some opinions.
Cindy's attendance at the premiere of "Suicide Squad" was not an official arrangement, but she took the initiative to ask for an invitation and came uninvited.
Mainly to increase their own exposure.
After three consecutive Victoria's Secret shows, the competition in the fashion industry is becoming more and more fierce.
Relying on the accumulation of popularity, Cindy Crawford has been in the first place on the model popularity list launched by the Eagle portal in the past two years, but her points on the list have been pulled closer and closer by latecomers.
Of the top five supermodels who rose under the hype of Elite in the 80s, only she and Claudia Schiffer are still on the top 10 list. Linda Ivan Golinsta was squeezed out of the top 10 this year, Black Pearl Naomi Campbell was dumped, and Christy Durington simply got married and had children and quit the fashion industry.
Many fans have questioned the fairness of the list on the Igrit portal, but Cindy knows that there is probably no other list in the circle that is more authoritative than the one on the Igrit portal, because the list is completely based on the supermodel's public endorsements, catwalks, covers and other qualifications for the accumulation of points, rather than the rankings in fashion magazines that are highly subjective and inevitably have public relations factors in the past.
With this careful thought, it did not prevent Cindy from walking through the red carpet of the premiere in a variety of styles.
Finally, signing autographs in front of the photo wall, Cindy is led by the staff to a lounge backstage for important guests. Many guests took the initiative to come over to cheer today, and Daenerys Entertainment will not slack off on these details.
There were already a lot of people gathered in the lounge.
Cindy greeted everyone warmly, and quietly roamed around, regretting that she didn't see a certain guy.
There are a lot of 'acquaintances' in the circle.
The intimate waist and leg essence are very lily-like, and there has been gossip in the circle more than once that the two of them have a lace edge tendency, and I don't know what a guy will think if he knows it.
Stephanie Seymour, who made Cindy gnash her teeth last time, also brought her fiancé to join in the fun.
There are also Eva Hertzkova and Daniela Pusteva, who are just rising Elite female agents Grace Spurt this year, and some media predict that both women are expected to squeeze into the top 10 of the model popularity list next year and win the supermodel title. Without Qusi Gauff, the other party probably has a job.
Nicole Kidman, who had just hugged Cindy, suddenly asked, "Cindy, are you looking for Simon?"
Cindy hurriedly came back to her senses, did not deny it, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, he doesn't seem to have come over yet." ”
Nicole smiled with a slight sense of superiority: "I just asked Amy, and unfortunately, Simon won't be coming over tonight." ”
"Huh?"
Ni can be confused by Cindy, pointing to Daenerys Entertainment CEO Amy Pascal, who is talking to Terry Semel not far away.
Cindy certainly knew who Amy Nicole was talking about, but she didn't expect a guy to even attend the premiere of such an important movie. Could it be that there is a feud between Daenerys and Time Warner? Thinking about it, Amy Pascal was present in person, as if he had a good conversation with Time Warner CEO Terry Semele, and it was obvious that there was no contradiction between the two sides.
Nicole actually knows better.
A new film written by a guy himself has recently started filming, and he must have gone to the set. As for the filming location, it is obviously not in Los Angeles, maybe Australia, so it can't be in time for this premiere.
In fact, I want to take the opportunity to discuss the renewal of Victoria's Secret endorsement with Westeros tonight.
Of the original five spokespersons, the other four were less famous, so they all signed for five years, and only Cindy signed a three-year contract, which expires next year.
The current Victoria's Secret show is far beyond an ordinary commercial performance for models.
Whether they can be on the Victoria's Secret catwalk, whether they can get the theme opening and closing, have become a symbol of a model coffee position, especially the Victoria's Secret brand spokesperson, after having such an identity, the resources of the entire Westeros system will be inclined to them intentionally or unintentionally, which is almost obvious to everyone in the circle.
The reason why Cindy was able to stabilize her coffee position was also due to her identity as the spokesperson of Victoria's Secret.
If you lose this aura, even if you want to focus on Hollywood in the future, it will not be so smooth.
The original endorsement contract was paid $5 million for three years, and if the Victoria's Secret brand growth in recent years is purely based on the growth of the Victoria's Secret brand in recent years, if you want to renew it, Cindy's high price of $5 million per year is not too much.
However, the fact is that there are countless goblins staring at Cindy who are about to give up this position, and Victoria's Secret official interest in renewing the contract with her does not seem to be so strong.
If you want to renew your contract, you can get Westeros' approval more than anyone else.
Speaking of which, at the afterparty of the Victoria's Secret show last month, Cindy wanted to discuss the matter with Westeros, but unfortunately was disturbed by Stephanie Seymour and had to put her thoughts down for a while. I only hope that Westeros will forget the that Stephanie Seymour revealed.
It wasn't until the staff came over to inform everyone to enter the screening room that Simon Westeros didn't show up.
Six o'clock sharp.
In a hall full of celebrities, journalists and fans, the host gave a brief speech and the screening began directly.
Cindy Crawford put aside the mess for a while, just as if it was a pure movie-watching.
After the opening credits of Daenerys, Warner Bros. and DC Studios, the first thing that appears on the big screen is the speeding aerial footage, accompanied by the roar of helicopters and radio conversations, and beneath the helicopter is a small town, a chaotic town already shrouded in smoke and flames, with crowds of vehicles crashing around like ants and frequent gunshots.
It's just this set of suspenseful and hot shots that directly bring the attention of everyone in the hall into the movie.
Of course, for the filmmakers on the scene, there is also a lot more to see from this set of shots.
Burning budget.
This is the most basic premise, and ordinary films are really unaffordable.
Moreover, the opening set of shots and sound effects are also top-notch, and some filmmakers are already thinking about how to learn from them.
on the big screen.
The camera quickly shifted to the face of a man in the helicopter cabin, and viewers who had slightly watched the trailer of "Suicide Squad" recognized that this was the male protagonist Rick Flegg played by Fong Kilmer.
At the beginning, Warner also thought that Fang Kilmer's popularity was not enough to support the actor, and tried to invite Mel Gibson to play this role, and the summer "The Line of Fire", although it was a group drama led by Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, the gangster played by Fang Kilmer also left a deep impression on the audience, and his popularity increased greatly.
No sooner had the close-up shot of Fang Kilmer been frozen than a hurried voice came over the radio: "The target has left the town, he is fleeing to the mountains, ah......"
There was a scream, and silence returned to the radio.
As the helicopter turned, Rick Flegg grimly checked his gear one last time, put on his gas mask, and said to his men who were waiting behind him, "Follow me." ”
Moments later, the helicopter lowered its altitude, the cabin opened, the ropes were dropped, and a dozen special operators skilfully slid off the helicopter.
This part of the shot is completely shot with the participation of real special forces, and the whole process seems professional and smooth, and after editing, it gives the audience a wonderful sense of immersion and substitution.
Just after completing the assembly on the roof of the town, an explosion sounded again not far away.
With the reminder from the helicopter, Rick Flegg rushed towards the target without hesitation, and the audience soon saw a terrifying figure surrounded by flames destroying everywhere like crazy, Rick Flegg led people closer, just in time to see a remnant of the special operators on the ground being engulfed in flames and turning into ashes in a blink of an eye.
This terrifying scene stunned everyone at the scene, and only Rick Flegg did not hesitate to raise and shoot.
Gunshots rang out.
The figure surrounded by flames screamed, looked at it fiercely, turned and ran.
Rick Flegg chased after him without the slightest hesitation, and a group of subordinates behind him also reacted and followed, and one of the deputies also reminded: "Rick, it says to live." ”
Rick Flegg looked at the hellish scene around him and said coldly, "First of all, we have to live." ”
For the next five minutes, chases, fights, and deaths, and when the terrifying figure surrounded by flames finally came to the edge of a cliff with nowhere to escape, an anxious Rick Flegg directly stripped off his gas mask and looked at the figure not far away with bloodshot eyes.
“Son of Bitch!”
Scolded like this, Rick Flegg did not hesitate to raise his gun and point at the figure in front of him, who was also at the end of the crossbow, a cloud of black mist suddenly fell from the sky, but he vaguely saw a slender woman's figure blowing at himself, Rick had not yet recognized whether this was a hallucination or not, and his body had fallen unconscious without obeying the call.
The picture is also dark.
When the light came back on, the camera had already turned to a hearing hall, where a fat black woman was giving a presentation to several bigwigs on the stage, while on the big screen there was a video of Rick Flegg leading the team at the beginning of the movie.
"Vengeful demons, possess the ability to manipulate fire, and are so powerful at healing themselves that ordinary weapons cannot cause fatal damage to them. In this pursuit, we lost a total of 37 special operations personnel, and if it weren't for the succubus who also has superpowers, he would still have escaped in the end, which once again proves the feasibility of my proposed plan, we need to form a team of superpowered people to help us carry out some tasks that ordinary soldiers can't do. ”
Amanda Waller's conversations with several federal executives began to appear on the big screen with credits and crew subtitles.
In the screening hall, there is a thrilling chase that even audiences who are completely unfamiliar with DC Comics can fully enjoy, which is also the effect Simon hopes to achieve.
The opening drama, interspersed with subtitles, quickly introduces the general background of the whole thing.
Faced with the constant emergence of various superpowers across the Federation, Amanda Waller, who is jealous at heart, believes that humanity needs to create a team for checks and balances, and has been lobbying the top of the government for this purpose. After the Cyborg Incident, the mother box that had fallen into the hands of humans was accidentally lost, and the federal leadership urgently needed to find it, and Amanda Waller's plan to activate the 'suicide squad' of superpowered criminals was finally approved
After the end of this background introduction and the title of 'Suicide Squad', the feature film officially begins.
Rick Fleg, who was seriously injured in a fight with the Vengeful Demon, had just left the hospital when a sedan stopped in front of him, and a sexy girl in a black OL suit got out of the car.
The last memories of the coma surfaced, and Rick Flegg was wary: "It's you?"
The girl held out her hand to Rick Flegg: "Hello, Mr. Fleg, I'm Joan Muon. ”
Rick Flegg paused, but still reached over, "Thank you for saving me last time." ”
The girl smiled slightly, and there was a little more strange evil in her expression: "Mr. Fleg, it seems that you are very self-aware. ”
Rick let go of the other party's slender hand and said, "So ......"
The girl handed over the document she had just held in her hand when she got out of the car: "This is your appointment, and from today onwards, we will work together." ”
In the screening hall, looking at the sexy girls on the big screen, many people couldn't help but feel amazing.
This is Natasha Kinski.
Therefore, some people also thought of the scandal between the girl and Simon Westeros.
However, this European actress with a charming temperament plays the role of 'succubus', which is indeed very suitable.
Simon's choice of Natasha Kinsky, who he hasn't been in touch with for a long time, is also by no means a personal preference, because the image does fit. In fact, the first choice was Isabel Adjani, if you talk about the role of a bewitching witch, no one is more suitable than this actress, but unfortunately, the 39-year-old Isabelle Adjani has a bit of a fat figure, but the role of the succubus needs to be slim type, Simon's condition to ask the other party to reshape was refused, and he can only give up regretfully. So the role fell to the second candidate, Natasha Kinsky.
