In just three days, James Huang and Glenn Morgan came back again and sold the entire copyright of the script to Orion Films.
To this end, Orion Pictures paid a copyright fee of US$10,000.
The copyright fee of 10,000 US dollars is not very high, but it is not the lowest price either.
Many scripts in Hollywood can only be sold for a few thousand dollars, and the price similar to the script of “The Sixth Sense” is only one exception.
Meanwhile, James Wong signed a three-picture directing deal and Glenn Morgan signed a crew editing deal.
James-Huang’s remuneration for each film is only 350,000 US dollars, and does not involve any post-production share.
The rest of the remuneration are all minor issues. Orion Films will not be too fussy about it. There will be nothing missing in the director’s remuneration that should be given, as long as it is not excessive.
In contrast, Lei Sancheni was much simpler. He got in touch with James Huang immediately and began to prepare for the crew.
The initial budget of the film was 20 million US dollars, and the filming location was set in Los Angeles, not New Zealand as expected.
As for Canada!
With the scale and channels of Orion Films, it is difficult to get the tax refund quota from the Canadian government for the time being.
Moreover, the haunted house that Ryan bought before was used again.
The reason why New Zealand was not chosen as the overseas shooting location of the film this time.
The reason is very simple.
One of the most important projects of Orion Pictures, the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy, quietly started preparations in New Zealand, and Peter Jackson directly contracted the entire Wellington studio.
For a long time to come, Wellington Studios may not be able to receive the second crew.
The filming time of the crew is expected to be very long. Even the first “Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” will not be released until 2000 at the earliest.
It is conceivable that the shooting time of the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy can definitely set a record in Hollywood.
The first thing that needs to be solved is that there are a lot of elf candidates for the film. Orion Films had to contact Victoria’s Secret to prepare a group of angels to star in guest roles, which can be regarded as a mutual benefit.
With the influence of the original “Lord of the Rings” in the Western world, when future films are released, it can bring a lot of heat to Victoria’s Secret.
Similarly, “Lord of the Rings” can also use Victoria’s Secret Angels to increase the film’s promotional selling points.
Right now, Jon Felthammer is personally negotiating this matter with Victoria’s Secret executives. Once an agreement is reached, the Victoria’s Secret Angels will go to New Zealand with great fanfare at an appropriate time.
The starring candidates in the specific film are not much different from the previous life, only the candidate for the role of the Elf Queen has been slightly changed, with Cindy Crawford replacing the original Cate Blanchett.
On the “Lord of the Rings” project, Ryan will not interfere too much, just like “Ice Age” produced by Blue Sky Studios, Chris Wedge himself is already the best candidate, and there is no need to intervene.
What’s more, “The Lord of the Rings” is adapted from a famous Western book, not an Eastern one. Ryan has never read this book at all, and many plots are only a general idea from the movies of his previous life. .
Might as well hand over the crew to Peter Jackson.
Ryan looked at the time on his watch, and drove to Blue Sky Studio. As soon as he walked in, he saw Chris Wedge coming out from a distance.
“I said at least three years.” Chris Wedge looked at Ryan and said very seriously.
When Ryan invested in Blue Sky Studios, Chris Wedge once said in person that it would take at least three years to make a 3D animated feature film.
It has been more than two years since the production of “Bunnie Rabbit” was completed, and Blue Sky Studio has completed the production of the main body of “Ice Age”.
Next, only post-dubbing and production dubbing are needed. If it is soon, it will be released in summer.
Several months ahead of schedule.
“Blue Sky Studios and ‘Ice Age’ will surprise everyone.”
“Hollywood not only has Pixar Animation Studios and DreamWorks Animation Studios, but there will be another Blue Sky Studio soon.” Ryan hugged Chris Wedge fiercely.
Pixar Animation Studios and DreamWorks Animation Studios are considered to be the two most famous animation studios in Hollywood at the moment, even faintly surpassing Disney.
Chris Wedge nodded emphatically, the “Ice Age” project is Blue Sky Studio’s last stand.
If it wins, it will become one of the three major animation studios in Hollywood. If it loses, it is very likely that it will never have the opportunity to get involved in the production of animated feature films.
The two walked into the screening room of Blue Sky Studios, and Ryan was about to say hello to Sofia Coppola, Helen, and Jon Fertimer.
Suddenly, his movements froze, and his eyes fell on a rabbit doll not far away, which was more than one meter high.
What is even more surprising is that the position of the rabbit doll is exactly on the side of Anne-Hathaway, separating Natalie-Portman.
Ryan looked carefully for several times before seeing Scarlett Johansson holding a huge rabbit doll, and subconsciously felt a headache.
“Scarlett!”
“Where did your rabbit doll come from!” Ryan walked over, looking blankly at Scarlett Johansson who was holding the rabbit doll tightly.
There seemed to be a trace of tension on her face.
“It’s a gift from Sophia.” Scarlett Johansson glanced at Ryan and replied quickly.
“Idiot.” Natalie Portman cursed in a low voice, and then said: “She secretly took it from the studio booth, and it’s not the first time, every time she said it was given to her by Sophia one’s gift.”
“Natalie, shut up!” Scarlett Johansson suddenly turned around and glared at Natalie Portman.
Natalie Portman showed no sign of weakness, and immediately stared back in the same way.
Anne-Hathaway, who was sitting between the two, couldn’t help but rolled her eyes. She knew this would happen, and she would never sit between the two of them.
“Go and apologize to Mr. Chris, and put the doll back.” Ryan said expressionlessly.
During this period of time, someone not only raided Blue Sky Studio several times, it is said that even Pixar Animation Studio, she took a lot of dolls back by taking the opportunity of dubbing.
“Okay, Ryan, it’s just a doll.”
Chris Wedge came over, glanced at the rabbit doll in Scarlett Johansson’s arms, and smiled, “This is Bunny Bunny, a very cute little guy.”
“If Miss Scarlet likes it, there are quite a few of its dolls in the studio.”
The dolls in Blue Sky Studio are almost all handmade limited editions, and they will not even be sold outside.
For those girls who love dolls, it is simply a dreamlike paradise.
“Really!” Scarlett Johansson jumped off the seat and looked at Chris Wedge with surprise.
“As long as it is not the character doll in “Ice Age”, other dolls can be taken away.” Chris Wedge is very generous.
The era of Bunny Rabbit is coming to an end. Keeping these dolls is useless except for occupying space. Blue Sky Studio will usher in a new star.
What’s more, as everyone knows, Scarlett Johansson is not only the most popular child star in Hollywood, but also has a very unusual relationship with Orion Films. She starred in several big-budget films one after another, almost all of which are invested by Orion Films.
Hearing this sentence, Scarlett Johansson almost jumped up with joy, and immediately became very polite, “Thank you, Mr. Chris!”
This is not taking it secretly, but taking it openly. She can take back all the dolls she likes.
“Natalie, Anne.”
Seeing Scarlett Johansson, Ryan smiled slightly, and then his eyes fell on Natalie Portman and Anne Hathaway, “You don’t thank Mr. Chris!”
Natalie Portman was the first to react, blinked, and then said to Chris Wedge: “Thank you, Mr. Chris!”
After finishing speaking, she gave Scarlett Johansson a provocative look.
Although she didn’t have much interest in those dolls, she didn’t mind taking more for a while, and she was mad at Scarlett Johansson who had been against her all the time.
“Thank you, Mr. Chris!” Anne-Hathaway’s reaction was obviously half a beat slow, and she liked those dolls very much.
“Ryan!”
“Those are all my dolls.” Scarlett Johansson gritted her teeth, the dolls she just got, all of a sudden, she didn’t know how much she would lose.
“Be quiet, otherwise I will call your mother and tell your mother what happened just now.” Helen got up and walked over, looking at Scarlett Johansson with a blank expression.
Scarlett Johansson immediately sat down dejectedly, muttering to herself, “It’s all because of that **** ugly monster.”
I don’t know if she’s talking about Ryan or Natalie Portman.
As Scarlett Johansson quieted down, several people sat down, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Chris Wedge stepped forward to operate the projector himself.
Not long after, the lights in the projection room went out and the screen lit up.
The story of “Ice Age” is very simple. It revolves around three prehistoric animals from the Ice Age and an abandoned human baby.
The Ice Age caused animals to migrate in search of food.
The kind-hearted mammoth-Manfred, the eating sloth-Sid, and the cunning saber-toothed tiger-Diago, these three animals with very different personalities got together in order to bring a human child back home. , formed a temporary **** team, and embarked on a long journey to find their relatives.
Along the way, these three animals were reborn in conflict, and Diago was scheming, trying to lure the team into a deadly ambush set by his own species. The experience of the struggle made Diego begin to waver in his plan.
