MTL - American Fame and Fortune-Chapter 845 Emma, ​​God of War with Crooked Mouth

Chapter 845 Emma, ​​the Crooked God of War

“Every few years, musicals always have a revival.”

In the studio of "Beauty and the Beast" at Disney Studios, Alan Horn, accompanied by director Bill Condon, looked at the latest costumes delivered and said: "Martin gave us a successful demonstration. Next It’s up to you.”

Bill Condon had just read the relevant reports of "La La Land", and he was feeling a little stressed. He suddenly came up with an idea: "President, can you find Martin to play the role of Beast?"

Alan Horn was quite speechless and asked directly: "Do you think it is possible? Asking a top Hollywood star to play the role of a beast that barely even shows his true face?"

Bill Condon also knows that this is a luxury, but he still has to give it a try. What if it works? He said: "Why don't you ask?"

 Allan Horn raised his hand to interrupt him: "No, do you think I haven't asked?"

 Hearing this, Bill Condon gave up.

 Martin has used "La La Land" to prove that as long as a musical film is made well, there will definitely be a market and an audience, and the market space is still huge.

Alan Horn's cell phone rang, and he answered the call and said with a smile: "Martin, congratulations, "La La Land" is a box office hit... Haha, Disney Pictures, as the distributor, will definitely do more follow-up promotions. Keep up, this is bound to be a film with a North American box office of more than 200 million US dollars, and we strive to have a North American box office of more than 250 million US dollars."

Listening to Alan Horn’s words, Bill Condon was not without envy.

And the film's reputation has always been strong.

Bill said with a smile: "Of course, I will temporarily put aside the work at hand to receive you."

Also during this Thanksgiving weekend, "La La Land", which entered its second week of screenings, maintained a stable box office trend, taking in US$38.95 million at the box office the next weekend.

He added another point: "In terms of the film business, Alan Horn respects Martin Davis's advice very much, and I believe you can understand."

 The studio continues to be busy preparing for the film.

 Bill Condon was envious.

 Including the revenue from the first four days including the Thanksgiving holiday, the film’s North American box office reached US$145 million.

 Superman is Superman after all.

 Jason asked: "Besides Martin Davis, who else has the decision-making power in the main role?"

 He ​​remembered clearly that the director of "La La Land" was born in the 1980s. Strictly speaking, this was the young director's second official film work.

"What kind of student should use the road below to open the way up." To a certain extent, Jason's words are correct. He has confidence in his customers: "Saoirse Ronan can Emma can do it better! And Emma is much prettier than she is.”

  Relying on the reputation that Superman has built over decades and its explosive action scenes, "Man of Steel" took in a box office of US$115 million in North America during its opening weekend.

 And it’s more serious than ever.

 Jason nodded: "I understand, just follow the successful ones..."

  It’s simply incomprehensible.

 Zach Snyder once again showed his biggest weakness, trying to cram too many things into the movie at once, making it impossible to tell a story in the normal length of the film.

Jason came over, and of course he had a purpose. He didn't go around in circles and said directly: "This film will soon hold the third audition for the heroine. Emma Watson likes this role very much. I'd like to trouble you a lot during the audition." Take the trouble.”

 He went to see Emma Watson, planning to wait until Martin returned to Los Angeles before making any plans.

 Amber is Bill Condon’s agent and is also owned by CAA.

 “La La Land is one of the best movies of the year.”

 Warner Bros. and DC Pictures’ new Justice League cinematic universe plan has once again started, and “Man of Steel”, which carries the countless hopes of the Warner team, will be released during the Thanksgiving holiday.

 Allan Horne left quickly.

  But the film's reputation, like Zack Snyder's other works, shows a polarizing trend.

 But for a three-hour story, he needed four hours of film time.

On Thanksgiving Day, "La La Land" had an astonishingly high attendance rate, taking in nearly 20 million U.S. dollars at the box office in a single day.

The other party was lucky enough to seize this opportunity from Martin. The box office of this movie may be equal to the total box office of all the movies he has directed.

 Praise was mostly focused on the action scenes, while criticism was mostly directed at the storyline.

During the film's promotion cycle, the creative staff were extremely busy. Martin has been traveling around the world. When the Thanksgiving holiday came, he returned to Atlanta and spent a few days with Elena during the holiday.

Emma Watson is Jason Weinberg's number one client, but after the end of the "Harry Potter" series, Emma Watson's career came to a standstill, and the development was not smooth, and she also made a " Shitgate" is such a thing that seriously affects a person's reputation.

However, with the release of the new film, "La La Land" was kicked off the top spot on the box office list.

 The latter shook hands with Bill and said, "Did Amber call you?"

 As soon as Bill Condon returned to the office, someone came to visit, agent Jason Weinberg from CAA.

 Bill pointed in the direction of the Disney Building: "Allen Horne, President and Co-Chairman of Disney Studios."

 Who doesn’t want to make a lot of money on his own head?

 Jason left Bill’s office and immediately called to inquire about Martin. CAA quickly gave him the answer. Martin went on a promotional tour with the crew of “La La Land” and was not in Los Angeles for the time being.

Bill said: "You can rest assured from my side, I will recommend Emma, ​​but if you want to win this heroine, you must get Martin, and Martin... I heard that Saoirse is one of the contenders for this role. -Ronan is Martin’s student and has a bad relationship with Emma Watson.”

 This musical with a controversial heroine has become one of the most popular movies during Thanksgiving.

Bill could only go so far and said, "Good luck to you."

Hollywood and movie fans are both forgetful, and new talents and stars are emerging in an endless stream. If Emma Watson wants to develop smoothly in this industry, she must reverse the decline.

Bill thought for a moment and said directly: "I am also very optimistic about Emma personally. I feel that she is more suitable for the role of Belle than Saoirse Ronan recommended by Disney Pictures. But Jason, you know, I am just the director of the crew. , has the right to make suggestions on casting, but has no decision-making power.”

This extremely stylized director gave him a two-hour film length, and he needed three hours to tell the story clearly.

 “This film brought about another revival of musical films.”

“The dances performed by the male and female protagonists are all incredibly beautiful, and the director’s ability to control the film is truly amazing!”

 Davis Studio and Disney Pictures will push "La La Land" into the awards season as a key award-winning film this year.

 Martin is self-aware. His performance in the film and his dancing are pretty good, but his singing is only average. Therefore, he is not even planning to be nominated for Best Actor.

Saoirse Ronan is planning to try to get nominated for Best Actress.

However, the first award the film is competing for is Best Picture.

 …

With the success of "Man of Steel", Warner Bros. and DC Pictures, which were clouded by the disastrous failure of "Green Lantern", seemed to see the clouds clearing and the bright sunshine shining on their heads. In order to boost morale and announce to the world that the Justice League cinematic universe has had a successful start, Warner Bros. and DC Pictures held a celebration party for the film immediately after the Thanksgiving weekend, inviting many media and colleagues to participate.

 Martin, as the producer and leading actor of DC movie projects, was also invited.

In the banquet hall of the Burbank Hotel, Kevin Tsujihara and Hamada were in high spirits and frequently clinked glasses with others.

 Zack Snyder is surrounded by many Warner executives and seems to have replaced Nolan as the most valued director at Warner Bros.

Henry Cavill, the new Superman, is also attracting much attention.

The Justice League universe has shaken off the shadow of the failure of "Green Lantern", created a successful start, and seems to see hope of catching up with the Marvel Avengers universe.

Nolan glanced over there and said to Martin: "They are too optimistic."

 Martin understands: “Success is hard to come by.”

Nolan pondered for a moment, and seeing no one else around, he said: "Man of Steel has a mixed reputation. If we don't make steady progress, the future development will not be too optimistic."

  Martin was about to speak when he noticed that Gal Gadot, not far away, was smiling at him. He immediately nodded in response and said to Nolan: "You understand the mentality of Warner and DC executives."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Emma Watson, who had a shoehorn face, walking in front of Gal Gadot.

It seems that this person hasn’t started fighting with JK Rowling yet.

Martin thought about it and wanted to talk to Nicholson another day to see how to turn the Harry Potter crew against each other. The old **** who likes fun would definitely be interested.

On the other side, Kevin Tsujihara asked people to call in all the people who directly participated in the filming and production of DC movies, including Martin and Nolan.

"Man of Steel" is a huge success, and director Zack Snyder deserves the first credit!" Kevin Tsujihara raised his glass, obviously elevating Zack Snyder's status and weight, and said, "Let's pay tribute to Snyder together. A glass of director.”

On this occasion, everyone was very considerate and raised a glass to congratulate Zack Snyder.

Kevin Tsujihara, as the head of Warner Group, has been criticized by countless people in the film business in recent years, and now he can finally feel proud.

At this moment, facing a group of key figures belonging to DC movies, Kevin Tsujihara decided to say a few words of encouragement: "We have made a good start now, and we must keep it up. Although our old rival Marvel The Avengers are currently ahead, but I believe DC can catch up.”

 He ​​smiled brightly and looked confident: "And compared to Marvel's superhero movies, we at DC also have our own advantages, and we will strengthen this advantage in the future!"

Former Oscar-winning actor Jeremy Irons, who has already won the role of Alfred the Butler, asked curiously: "What are the advantages? I paid a lot of attention when I played the role."

Hamada took over: "Compared to the action scenes in "Man of Steel," don't you think Marvel's action design looks like a fight between elementary school students?"

These words aroused the thoughts and memories of everyone present.

Soon, everyone nodded, because Hamada’s statement was correct.

 The action scene design in "Man of Steel" is worthy of the title of superhero.

 Not to mention destroying the world, it is also destroying a city.

 Martin and Nolan looked at each other and both laughed.

 Because if you really want to compare it like this, the action design of "The Dark Knight" can't even be considered a kindergarten date.

Kevin Tsujihara looked at Zack Snyder at this time and urged in public: "We have successfully taken the first step. The second step is very important. You must speed up preparations. "Batman v Superman" will be released in 2014 at the latest. It will be released during the holiday season!”

As soon as these words came out, Zack Snyder was under great pressure. Under normal circumstances, a movie of this size would take one year to prepare, one year to shoot and produce, and it would be released during the 2014 holiday season. The time is quite tight.

Kevin Tsujihara didn’t give Zack Snyder a chance to shirk: “We are already far behind Marvel. If we don’t catch up, DC will be forgotten.”

He is in a high position and does not lack decisiveness: "One more thing, I plan to add a subtitle to the film and officially name it "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", so that the film will fully warm up the Justice League movie."

 Zach Snyder nodded: "I agree."

This ended, Martin and Nolan went elsewhere.

Although Nolan recommended Zack Snyder to Warner, the Noves have completely withdrawn from the Justice League plan after "Man of Steel". The only connection with the DC film business is Martin's "Joker".

 Zach Snyder came over and wanted to chat with Nolan alone for a while.

 Martin simply changed places.

Gal Gadot, whose long legs were exposed under her dress, wanted to come to Martin, but stopped again when she saw Emma Watson appearing opposite Martin.

Emma Watson, who was wearing a goose-yellow evening gown, pulled up a chair and sat opposite Martin, smiling with a dimple: "Good evening, Martin."

"Good evening, Miss Watson." Maybe Martin can't appreciate this one. Seeing Emma Watson's single dimple when she smiles, she always feels like a crooked-mouthed **** of war.

Emma Watson is simple and direct: "Alone tonight? Didn't you see your female companion?"

Martin said: "I came here with Director Nolan, without a female companion."

Her agent Jason gave her clear instructions. If she gets Martin, she can get the heroine of "Beauty and the Beast". Emma Watson is confident that she is attractive. After all, she changes boyfriends equally fast.

She still kept her crooked war-god smile: "I happen to have no male partner, so why don't we make a couple."

This is not a hint, but an explicit statement.

Of course Martin understands it, but when he thinks about Emma Watson’s buttocks and **** legs covered with yellow stains in the Disney studio, he is not interested at all.

Even though I knew it was fake, the yellow mud fell into my crotch, and it was easy for people to think that it was fake.

 There is no way, I can’t do anything.

Moreover, Emma Watson is Saoirse Ronan’s mortal enemy.

 Martin declined politely: "Sorry, my girlfriend will drive to pick me up later."

  She took the initiative to hook up, but was rejected in this way. Emma Watson looked a little embarrassed and said: "We can have a beautiful night together."

 Martin looked at his watch: "It's time for me to go."

 He got up and left without even taking a moment to remember.

Emma Watson bit her lip bitterly, but there was nothing she could do.

Martin went over to say hello to the organizer representatives Kevin Tsujihara and Hamada, and then left.

As for the crooked-mouthed God of War, Martin automatically forgot about him.
