“I’ve decided to work with Michael.”
Roland Emmerich smiled slightly, “Of course we will choose a Hollywood film company as our partner.”
“Orion Films is also one of the objects of investigation.”
This is a very large project, and the initial calculated investment scale is likely to exceed 100 million US dollars. Roland Emmerich and Michael Ovitz need someone to share the risk.
Besides, the success of any project is not a simple matter, such as publicity channels and distribution channels.
“Roland, you are right.”
“We need a partner with a distribution channel,” Michael Ovitz said, smiling at Ryan.
As long as it can bring enough benefits, he doesn’t mind cooperating with Orion Pictures.
“I wish you a happy cooperation.”
“Also remember to send a copy of the script and terms of cooperation to Orion Films.” Ryan nodded.
In their previous lives, Roland Emmerich and Michael Ovitz sent the script and cooperation conditions of this film to all second-tier and above film companies and studios.
Let a group of film companies and studios make a decision within 24 hours whether to agree to cooperate, and the film will be directed by Roland Emmerich.
Almost all film companies and studios, faced with an investment project of hundreds of millions of dollars and harsh conditions, almost unanimously chose to reject it.
In the end, only 20th Century Fox, a film company, chose to accept these terms.
Although Ryan doesn’t know the specific terms of cooperation, he can be sure of one thing. With Roland Emmerich’s status, he will 100% offer a sky-high salary and box office share.
There is also Michael Ovitz’s packaging service, which will also share the film’s box office share.
However, Ryan is leaning toward taking the project
Of course, we have to wait until we read the terms of cooperation.
As for the reason is very simple, the name of this film is called “The Day After Tomorrow”.
A very popular movie in the previous life, even if you can only share part of the profits, it is still a good investment project.
“Hi Ryan.”
As soon as Roland Emmerich and Michael Ovitz left, Angelina Jolie and Adriana Lima walked over together with a very intimate look.
Ryan didn’t show any embarrassment, and hugged the two very naturally, “Why are you two together!”
Angelina – Jolie in addition to filming “Tomb Raider 2”, she also filmed another film “In 60 Seconds”, starring Nicolas – Cage, busier than Ryan.
Adriana – Lima is most of the time to stay in Europe catwalk.
Compared with the United States, Europe is the center of the fashion industry.
“I just came back from Europe and happened to come across Lima.”
As she spoke, Angelina Jolie’s eyes fell on Charlize Theron. She had an exquisite appearance and a tall figure, making it impossible to pick out any flaws.
What surprised her the most was that Charlize Theron had a very strong aura, as if she was a high-ranking queen, full of confidence and sharp-edged.
“Charlie, your aura is getting stronger and stronger.” Angelina Jolie let go of Ryan, and gave Charlize Theron a hug. Charlize Theron whispered something in her ear.
“Get together at night.”
“Just the three of us, remember not to tell Ryan.”
After speaking, Angelina Jolie let go of her hands and introduced to Adriana Lima: “Lima, my new partner.”
Charlize Theron naturally understood what she meant by partner, and couldn’t help but rolled her eyes.
“Hello, Lima.” She looked at Adriana-Lima and greeted friendly.
“Hello, Miss Charlie.” Adriana Lima had a somewhat restrained expression.
The three people were full of smiles on the surface, as for what they thought in their hearts, I am afraid only they knew.
However, they are all smart people, even if they have dissatisfaction, they will not express it, otherwise there will be no deeper communication.
“Let’s talk first.”
Ryan saw Dan Logan not far away and nodded slightly, “I’m going to say hello to Dan Logan.”
After speaking, Ryan walked up to Dan Logan, “I thought you would represent Warner to the UK.”
To be honest, the influence of “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” in the film far exceeds that of North America.
This is an inevitable thing. In the whole film, from the original author to the Golden Iron Triangle are all British, and they have unparalleled recognition in the UK.
This is one of the reasons why Orion Pictures and Warner Bros. agreed to put the film’s premiere in the UK.
There seemed to be a hint of a smile on Dan Logan’s face, he pointed to Charlize-Theron and the three not far away and said: “Wow, your taste seems to be the same as the media reports, you like tall models .”
Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie are both models, and Adriana Lima is a Victoria’s Secret Angel.
“This is one of my pursuits.” Ryan was not at all embarrassed, but very calm.
This kind of thing is not only very common in Hollywood, but also normal.
Even, there are countless people whose lives are more chaotic than Ryan’s.
What bisexuality, fetish…children and so on.
You can find a lot of them casually.
“A great pursuit.”
Dan Logan quickly got down to business, “I just talked to Rowling, as long as the next “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” continues to be filmed in the UK, she can agree to speed up the creation.”
Ryan nodded and said, “No problem, you can promise her.”
“Also, it’s better to hurry up, we need to make a few more films before the young actors grow up.”
There are many child stars in Hollywood.
At the same time, there are child stars who are forced to leave Hollywood every year due to the reason of voice change and age.
If he remembers correctly, besides Emma Watson, among the young actors in the golden iron triangle, the other two young actors became more disabled as they grew older.
To put it bluntly, it is a long disability.
Even, strictly speaking, Emma Watson when she was a child was absolutely adorable to the extreme, and even Ryan thought she was prettier than Scarlett Johansson.
But Emma Watson, who has grown up, is much worse than when she was a child. It cannot be said that she is disabled, but her appearance and spirituality have also been discounted.
“Don’t worry, the next “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” will be released in time for Christmas next year.” Dan Logan naturally understood the key.
It is impossible for the crew to change actors, the best way is to speed up the shooting.
During the period, there is still a long period of time to wait for the young actor’s voice change period to pass.
In other words, the shooting needs to be temporarily suspended in the middle.
In addition, there are disputes over remuneration.
The salaries of the young actors in the first two films were pitifully low. In the future, they will face problems in terms of salary. The crew and the agents of the young actors are arguing with each other.
“Don’t forget, there is also the issue of salary.”
Ryan said very cautiously: “I would rather increase the amount of the basic salary, and I don’t want the crew to sign three box office sharing agreements.”
The film crew signed multiple film contracts with several young actors at one go, and the film can be a big hit at the box office all over the world at any time, so it is inevitable to increase the film salary.
The basic salary is okay, no matter how much it increases, it will not reach astronomical figures, at most it will reach more than 10 million US dollars.
What about the box office share?
In the entire series, none of the films has a global box office of less than 700 million US dollars, and the total box office of the 8 films is 7.8 billion US dollars.
Otherwise, Warner Brothers in the previous life would not have pitted the golden iron triangle once in the last film.
“Payroll is a real headache.”
Dan-Logan felt a bit of a headache, “Fortunately, we still have time.”
Speaking of this, Dan Logan changed his voice, and when it came to “Catwoman”, this was his main purpose tonight.
“Ryan, what do you think of Catwoman?”
“Someone inside Warner proposed to make a superhero movie based on the Catwoman character.”
Hearing Dan Logan’s words, Ryan smiled and patted him on the shoulder, “Superhero movies are destined to become one of the mainstream themes in Hollywood. Warner decided to restart the DC superhero movie shooting plan. This is a very wise decision.”
“The superhero characters of Marvel Comics and DC Comics in the future will surely dominate the global box office market.”
I said a lot, almost all of which revolved around superhero movies, and didn’t mention “Catwoman” at all.
Ryan doesn’t know what to say about a blood-spitting movie called Warner Bros. Loss ~www.mtlnovel.com~.
He hasn’t even read the script or the shooting plan, so he can’t directly say that he doesn’t like the shooting plan of “Catwoman”.
Besides, he can’t wait for Warner Bros. to get into trouble.
“Orion Pictures has shown the potential of superhero movies.” Dan Logan smiled.
Now that the superhero films under Marvel Comics can be successful.
Then DC’s superhero films can also be successful, even surpassing Marvel Comics and Marvel Pictures.
As for why I chose Catwoman!
According to a survey by Warner Bros., in recent years, the proportion of North American women and minorities watching movies has been increasing, and the “Tomb Raider” produced by Orion Pictures has been a great success.
Let Warner Bros. see a new market.
