The North American premiere of “Rush Hour” did not choose the traditional Thursday night, but chose Friday at midnight, and the premiere on the other side of the Pacific was exactly twelve noon.
On the first day of the film, it opened on a scale of 2,800 movie theaters, which is enough to reach the level of Hollywood commercial blockbusters in terms of the scale of release alone.
However, the scale of the premiere of “Rush Hour” was not very large. Orion Films did not invite any big star guests, and only a few friends who had worked with Ryan came to cheer.
Such as James Cameron, Nicolas Cage, Scarlett Johansson, Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and others.
James Cameron directly brought the two leading actors in “Titanic”, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, together.
“No, no, I absolutely believe in Ryan’s vision.”
“Rush Hour is sure to be a great action movie.”
When he came to the interview area of the premiere, James Cameron changed his appearance some time ago and became more attractive, attracting the attention of countless reporters.
“This is an action movie that is different from the traditional Hollywood. The protagonist in the movie has almost done all the fighting moves himself, which is unbelievable.”
James Cameron praised “Rush Hour”, and then walked into the guest room without changing his expression.
In fact, he hadn’t seen the film at all.
“Thank you Ryan.”
Coming to the guest room, James Cameron warmly hugged Ryan, “The next project, I am going to shoot a 3D movie with a budget of about 240 million US dollars.”
“Moreover, some technical exploration is needed in the early stage.”
Having said that, James Cameron looked a little embarrassed.
Not to mention the film’s investment budget of 240 million U.S. dollars, the fact that he continued to increase investment alone made most film companies frown.
As for the project he said!
James Cameron had already written an 80-page script in 1994 before filming “Titanic”.
It’s a pity that with the Hollywood shooting technology at that time, it was difficult to meet the expected shooting requirements.
In the end, he could only choose to give up temporarily and turn to filming “Titanic”.
“James, I have already said that Orion Films will invest in your next film, and $240 million is not a problem.”
Ryan didn’t care about the budget of up to 240 million US dollars, “As for technology exploration, we can first invest 10 million US dollars in the name of Orion Films.”
In his previous life, James Cameron, in order to shoot “Avatar”, not only spent money on researching 3DIMAX technology for shooting, but also invented a 3D camera system himself, and even promoted the replacement of 3D screens with theater companies.
It can be said that James Cameron is not shooting a film, but promoting the development of Hollywood film shooting technology and theater companies.
“I heard that the Blue Sky Studio you invested in will release a 3D animation feature film soon!” James Cameron didn’t care about the initial investment of 10 million US dollars, but asked about the Blue Sky Studio.
“The film will probably be released in the summer.” Ryan didn’t hide it.
“A studio that can produce 3D animated feature films.” James Cameron was secretly startled.
“I hope to get technical support from Blue Sky Studio.”
The computer CG animation technology in the digital field may not be comparable to that of Blue Sky Studio, and it can even be said that the computer CG animation technology of Blue Sky Studio is currently only better than Pixar Animation Studio.
“No problem.” Ryan agreed.
James Cameron nodded, did not continue to discuss the matter, but asked in a low voice: “Orion Pictures intends to undertake the overseas distribution of this film alone?”
There are no secrets in Hollywood.
What’s more, the overseas distribution of “Rush Hour” is not a secret.
“It’s not Orion Films, it’s an overseas distribution company I invested in in the UK.”
Ryan explained, and said: “Except for North America, this film is mainly released in Southeast Asia. As for Europe and Latin America, we have to wait until the film is released in North America.”
“In any case, when it comes to the overseas distribution of films, you’d better be careful.” James Cameron reminded.
In this regard, Ryan smiled and said thank you, without much reaction.
At this time, the two leading actors in the “Titanic” movie, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, walked in.
James Cameron took the initiative to introduce, “This is Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, the two leading actors in the movie “Titanic.”
“Hello, Mr. Ryan Gosling, very nice to meet you.” Leonardo DiCaprio’s tone was very polite, without the air of a popular star.
In contrast, Kate Winslet had a strange look in her eyes, “Mr. Ryan Gosling, I really like the videos you have shot.”
“Hello, Mr. Leonardo, Miss Kate.” Ryan glanced at Xiao Li warily, and a future competitor appeared.
It is said that Xiao Lizi once had 56 supermodel girlfriends, and their tastes were very similar to Ryan’s, so he had to be vigilant.
After chatting for a while, Ryan left the guest room, found Angelina Jolie, and suddenly felt a bright light in his eyes, “Hi, your dress today is really beautiful.”
Different from the dress of the previous few days, Angelina-Jolie straightened her long hair, and her long hair fell naturally. She matched it with a **** dress, revealing a large **** bare back, looking hot and charming.
Proper goddess fan.
“Be careful, I don’t want to steal the limelight of the premiere and get on the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper with you.” Angelina Jolie gave Ryan a slight look.
Right now, it is a public place, not a private one, so we need to pay attention to some influences.
In any case, she has not yet officially divorced, and if she gets too intimate with a playboy, it will definitely turn into a negative scandal.
“Okay.” Ryan shrugged helplessly, “Change the subject.”
“Orion Pictures intends to prepare to shoot an action-adventure film with a female protagonist. The script is adapted from the computer game “Tomb Raider” of the same name. The initial budget will invest around US$75 million to US$80 million.”
“You can take some time to come to Orion Films recently, which can be regarded as participating in the internal audition of the crew in advance.”
“The only requirement is that as the leading actor of this film, you need to sign three film contracts at once.”
Ryan bought the copyright of the film adaptation of “Tomb Raider” a long time ago, but he has not prepared to shoot it.
Originally, it was planned to shoot this film with Charlize Theron as the core.
However, Charlize-Theron’s aura is becoming more and more reminiscent of the former emperor, completely different from the image of the heroine in the game.
And Angelina Jolie in front of her is the best candidate.
Perhaps, Angelina Jolie’s real famous works in her previous life were “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” and “The Girl Who Moved Soul”.
But for audiences on the other side of the Pacific, when mentioning Angelina Jolie, the first thing that comes to mind is her image in “Tomb Raider”.
It can be said to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Movies with female protagonists!
$75 million to $80 million budget!
With the sudden news, Angelina Jolie couldn’t help breathing quickly.
At the same time, thinking of the rumors about Ryan, as long as you give what the other party wants, you will definitely reap unimaginable rewards.
The only thing that makes it a little difficult to choose is the need to sign three films at once.
“Sorry, I need to go back and discuss it with my agent.” Angelina Jolie showed an apologetic expression.
For many things, she needs the advice of her agent.
“sure.”
Ryan said empathetically: “In the short term, this film will not be ready for shooting so quickly, at least until “Rush Hour” is released overseas.”
During this period, Ryan needs to carefully polish the script, and minimize the dissatisfaction of the game fan base without changing the original plot.
Speaking of which, many movies adapted from games will be complained by game fans after they are released.
The film company needs to shoot ~www.mtlnovel.com~ from the perspective of the majority of the audience, not just for the game fan base, so a balance between the two needs to be grasped.
“Thank you.” Angelina Jolie breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and it was a top-notch commercial film.
“It’s okay.” Ryan looked at the time and greeted Angelina Jolie, “Let’s go and watch “Rush Hour”, hoping to get a good box office result.”
In addition to “Rush Hour”, a film produced by Warner Bros., “Desperate Assassin” will also be released today, also opening on a scale of 2,800 cinemas.
There is another similarity between the two films. Hollywood evaluation agencies and industry insiders are not optimistic about these two films.
The former “Rush Hour” turned out to be a Chinese actor and a black actor, plus a commercial director.
The latter “Desperate Assassin” is a film under the title of “Desperate End of the World” sequel.
“The Fugitive”, released in 1993, had a North American box office of $183 million and a global box office of $368 million.
This film is also the first Hollywood film to be released on the other side of the Pacific in nearly a decade.
It’s a pity that “Desperate Assassin” is not a sequel to “Desperate End of the World” in the true sense, but a derivative film.
The protagonist Harrison Ford in “The Fugitive” did not appear in this film, but the protagonists in the film are Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Downey Jr.
To put it bluntly, this is a film that makes money in the name of “The Fugitive”.
(This film is called “Desperate Manhunt 2 Local Fa-rectification” in China. By the way, I watched “Neon Clothes Love” in the middle of the night last night. The first hour of the film is very bright, and the second hour is no need to waste time. )
