The family dinner hosted by Natalie Portman’s parents was more like a work-oriented working dinner, and everyone’s topics were almost focused on work.
During the period, Natalie Portman’s father’s tone was somewhat complaining.
Natalie Portman turned down the role in “The Seagull” because of “Spider-Man” and “Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones.”
This is a Chekhov play, directed by Mike Nix and co-produced by the Public Theater in New York.
In this regard, Ryan did not explain too much, but just shrugged, saying that Natalie Portman does not need to appear in a Chekhov play.
He is not saying that “The Seagull” is not good. For a nineteen-year-old girl, it is obviously a very rare opportunity to be on the stage of the New York Public Theater.
However, compared to “Spider-Man” and “Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones”, “The Seagull” is not that important.
Avi-Allard once again talked about the shooting location of the crew.
He has already contacted an Australian studio through an intermediary company, and the other party said that he can vacate three studios and a certain number of offices for the “Spider-Man” crew.
This intermediary company works closely with the Australian Government.
Ryan only hesitated for a moment, and then chose to agree. Tens of millions of dollars in tax refund funds are not a small number.
After the dinner, Ryan refused Natalie Portman’s parents’ request to stay, and went back to the hotel by car.
“What are you thinking about!”
Ryan came to the hotel cafe to find Famke-Jensen who was alone, and then the two went back to the room together.
“Nothing, I just feel that you are very busy.” Famke-Jensen said.
She changed into a fur coat with a corset, black tight-fitting trousers and knee-high boots. She looked like a goddess, especially her tall figure, which looked very charming.
“I also want to relax, but unfortunately there are too many things to deal with.”
Ryan closed the door casually, walked into the room and poured two glasses of whiskey, handed one of them to Famke-Jensen, and said, “However, when “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” is released in the summer, I guess it will be fine.” Much easier.”
As long as the box office of “Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring” meets expectations in the first weekend, then the rest of the work can be handed over to other staff members of Orion Pictures.
As for Gladiator!
Ryan admitted that the original “Gladiator” did well at the box office and was a relatively successful film.
However, the plot setting and character creation of this film are obviously not as good as “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring”, and “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” is an adapted film, which has a large number of original readership support.
It can be said that the two are not at the same level at all.
“What about “Spider-Man”?” Famke-Jensen took a sip of the whiskey, put the glass on the table, took off his coat, and threw it on the sofa.
While admiring Famke-Jensen’s figure, Ryan said, “Spider-Man probably won’t start shooting until later.”
Natalie Portman, one of the leading actors in the film, needs to join the filming of “Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones” in June, and she will not be able to join “Spider-Man” until the end of August or September at the earliest crew.
In order to stagger the shooting time of the two crews, Ryan set the shooting of “Spider-Man” in August.
It is estimated that the crew will be able to finish filming around December, and the next year will be spent on special effects production and post-production.
“Can I attend the premiere of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring!”
“When I was in school, I found time to read the original book of this film.” As he spoke, Famke-Jensen walked up to Ryan and sat down, raising a pair of slender legs and shaking them gently.
“Of course.” Ryan agreed, then reached out and stroked Famke-Jensen’s long hair, and said, “Famke, you are really charming.”
Hearing this, Famke-Jensen smiled gracefully, and faced Ryan’s eyes without a trace of timidity, but responded boldly, “Then do you want to try a better experience!”
Ryan didn’t speak, he hugged Famke-Jensen into his arms, raised her chin, and observed her face up close. Her skin was smooth and delicate, with a creamy texture. She was indeed a rare beauty.
All of a sudden, the clothes on the two of them slipped off one by one… (10,000 words omitted below).
The next morning, warm sunlight poured into the room from the curtains, dyeing it with a faint golden brilliance.
Ryan opened his eyes and looked at Famke-Jensen in his arms, showing a smug expression.
Although it was only a transaction, he still experienced a great enjoyment.
Thinking of this, Ryan couldn’t help but gently stroked the smooth skin in his arms. It was as soft as jade and as white as snow. It was indeed a pleasure.
“You can sleep for a while!” Ryan stopped moving his hands, a little apologetic and looked at Famke-Jensen who opened his eyes in his arms.
“If you can be quieter, I can indeed sleep for a while.” Famke-Jensen complained a bit.
However, next, her actions were very fiery. Famke-Jensen hooked Ryan’s neck with both hands, and said very bluntly: “Unexpectedly, your place is amazing.”
“If I knew this earlier, I should have asked you to experience it when I was on the crew of “X-Men”.”
“My dear, you are also great!” Ryan looked at her exposed large skin, and his hands were very dishonest on her smooth belly, gently stroking, “And, we can do it again.”
“Good suggestion.” Famke-Jason smiled charmingly, and leaned into Ryan’s arms, revealing a pair of slender and smooth long legs.
The height of 1.82 meters is fully displayed, and the seductive curves are enough to drive any man into madness.
Ryan’s eyes fell on her long legs, feeling the soft body in his arms, how could he bear this kind of temptation, and directly pressed her…
Next, an intense exercise is over.
Famke-Jensen lay quietly in Ryan’s arms, raised his chin slightly and looked at him, “It’s a great deal, I really want to keep going.”
“Honey, we can keep trading forever.” Looking at the lazy Famke-Jensen, Ryan said with a smile, “You are a good trading partner.”
On this point, Ryan is absolutely telling the truth.
After a while, Ryan got up and left the hotel. Although he was a little bit reluctant, he had to take a flight back to Los Angeles today, so it was impossible for him to fool around with Famke-Jensen all the time.
As for the roles of Storm Girl and Phoenix Girl.
Even without the luscious deal last night, he wasn’t about to agree to a script revision.
It is in the interests of Orion Pictures to let Stormy be the heroine of the film, or even act as a vase role.
What’s more, it’s too early to talk about this matter now. “X-Men” has not yet been published, and the specific audience reputation has not yet come out. It is impossible to modify the script casually for the time being.
Of course, the internal test screening of “X-Men” is very good. The Phoenix played by Famke-Jensen has almost been recognized by the readers of Marvel comics, and it has not caused any harm to the reduction of Storm’s role. What a bad response.
The reason is very simple. In the latest “X-Men” comics published by Marvel Comics, the characters of Wolverine and Phoenix Girl are mainly highlighted, and the existence of Storm Girl is downplayed.
It has to be said that getting Marvel Comics can play a big role in the superhero movie plan.
Back in Los Angeles, Ryan only took a day off before devoting himself to the preparations for the “Spider-Man” crew and the release plan for “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring”.
He checked the list of candidates for the male lead’s audition. There were no fewer than thirty or forty candidates, and there were quite a few well-known names among them.
Ryan just looked it over briefly, eliminated some inappropriate age and appearance images, signed the list of audition actors, and sent it to Avi-Allard to prepare for the audition.
Compared with the male lead audition, some other passer-by actors and less important roles, as usual, most of them were thrown to Xingkong Economic Company.
It doesn’t matter who plays these small roles. Most of the time, the crew decides based on personal image, salary, whether there are referees, etc.
Then, he specifically communicated with the assistant director Joseph Aspmonti to do a good job in the training of stuntmen and security work.
During the filming of “Spider-Man”, stuntmen were required to perform a lot of dangerous actions, and the leading actors in the film hardly had any action scenes.
This is what makes the shooting of “Spider-Man” different. As long as the two are similar in size, it is difficult for the audience to distinguish the actor from the stuntman.
Meanwhile, promotional posters for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and Gladiator can be seen all over North America.
With the support of DreamWorks and Universal Pictures, the promotion scale of “Gladiator” is slightly better than “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring”.
Until the last weekend in April, Orion Films held a special promotional event.
On Saturday, April 29, there was a dense crowd above the Plaza of the Hilton Hotel. In addition to hundreds of reporters, there were also a large number of readers of the original book, fans, and even a few news broadcast vehicles of the TV station.
Countless audiences in North America and Europe are about to enjoy an unprecedented show.
A female hostess of a TV station under Time Warner held a microphone in her hand and turned her back to the crowd in the square, “It’s 9:00 a.m. Eastern time in the United States. At present, hundreds of reporters and tens of thousands of viewers have gathered at the scene. , it is less than an hour before the catwalk of the Lord of the Rings Angels.”
The camera quickly switched to the runway at the entrance of the hotel. Countless reporters, fans of the original book and fans of Victoria’s Secret all stared at the runway.
At ten o’clock in the morning, Orion Films will stage a big show with Victoria’s Secret, and more than forty Victoria’s Secret angels will appear at the same time.
“Next, let us look forward to the performance of the elves and angels in the film “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.”
“I believe it will be an unforgettable catwalk.”
The camera switches again, this time directly to the interior of the hotel. The audience in front of the TV can see tall, well-dressed angels.
Among them, Heidi Klum and Adriana Lima were interviewed by on-site reporters.
In addition, “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” cast members, Ian McKellen, Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortensen, Cindy Crawford, Sean Austin, Orlando Blue Mu and others will also appear on stage one by one.
For this reason, Orion Films not only contracted the Hilton Hotel, but also paid an astonishing amount of money.
The price of Victoria’s Secret Angels has always been synonymous with expensive.
This is based on the good cooperation between the two parties, and the event itself also has a promotional effect on Victoria’s Secret Angels.
Otherwise, Orion Pictures would have to pay even more.
“Ian, don’t be nervous for a while.”
Ryan patted Ian-McLean on the shoulder and joked, “After all, what you are about to face is a group of the most beautiful elf angels.”
After a while, several main actors in the film, including the members of the Fellowship of the Ring, will walk to the runway surrounded by a group of elves and angels.
“Okay, I admit I was a little nervous.”
While talking, Ian McClain subconsciously glanced at the model dressing room and said, “Ryan, are you interested in going over to take a look?”
“I don’t think the angels will reject you.”
Hearing this, Ryan suddenly thought that Scarlett Johansson had said the same thing back then, and it seemed that the model in the dressing room happened to be Cindy Crawford.
“If you don’t want to be kicked out by Cindy.” Ryan spread his hands and said, “You can try it.”
“Also, Sophia seems to be there too.”
Victoria’s Secret Angels may not mind being visited, but Cindy Crawford and Sofia Coppola may not be so easy to talk to.
“Forget it, I don’t want to be kicked out by Sophia.” Ian McClain quickly shook his head.
With Sofia Coppola’s character, he will be kicked out almost 100%.
At this time, Peter Jackson came over and said with some concern: “Can the event start earlier? I’m afraid the atmosphere outside the crowd is too crazy, and they can’t even control the scene.”
In the United States, there are not a few things like uncontrollable scenes.
“do not worry.”
“I’ve had someone call the Los Angeles Police Department to ask for more officers. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com” Ryan said with a smile.
When calling, he also specifically mentioned the investigation progress of the “X-Men” crew poisoning incident, so as to avoid the LAPD deliberately delaying the increase in the number of police officers.
Ian McLean didn’t stay long, nodded to Peter Jackson, and walked towards the dressing room. He needed to reapply his makeup.
“Just now Ridley called to apologize and will try his best to persuade DreamWorks to delay the release of “Gladiator”.”
Peter Jackson lowered his voice and said, “He doesn’t want to see two films released at the same time.”
Ridley Scott is not only the director of “Gladiator”, but also the director of “Black Hawk Down”, and has a good cooperation with Orion Films.
He didn’t want to see two films released at the same time.
In this way, it will not only affect the box office of “Gladiator”, but also the relationship with Orion Pictures.
