Chapter 516: 518

Roland Emmerich's Stargate, another translation, is also called Stargate.

On the original time line, the 1994 release of "the wonder of the universe" not only made a very good box office, but also, like Paramount's "Star Trek", took the "Stargate" as the main idea in the film to form a long-lasting sci-fi series. Later, it produced more than ten seasons of related TV series and a large number of sequels.

Simon has seen the original version of "the wonder of the universe" and some "Stargate" series. According to his personal standards, the plot of "the wonder of the universe" is not excellent. The key is to apply the wormhole concept to the film, which is very novel.

As a sci-fi action movie, the original action part is also very rough, which is quite miserable compared with the later mature Hollywood action movies.

Simon let Michael Bay as director this time, but also to make up for some of the defects of the original.

By the standards of popcorn movies, Michael Bay's "bang bang bang bang bang" is actually very enjoyable. The subsequent collapse of the transformers series is mainly due to the plot. In the final analysis, it is probably because Michael Bay himself is tired of directing a series repeatedly. Paramount's lack of courage to change the director is one of the reasons.

"As for the shaping of the role, commander O'Neill is a tough, resolute soldier, which is no problem. Dr. Jackson's setting is a little vague." In the office, Simon recalled James Spade's flashless performance in his memory and the thin portrayal of Dr. Jackson in the script, and said: "as a leading actor more important than Colonel O'Neill's part, I hope his character can be more distinctive. You can refer to the performances of Sam Neal and Jeff goblin in Jurassic Park

Although it is a standard commercial film, in Jurassic Park, Sam Neal and Jeff goblin successfully portray two scholars with completely different personalities. One is gentle and rigorous, the other is funny and uninhibited.

In contrast, James Spade in "the wonder of the universe" is not so much a doctor of Archaeology and Linguistics as a down and out high school teacher, giving people a sense of down and out youth in "sex, lies and video".

In the end, James spade is more suitable for literary films.

Roland Emmerich obviously thought about it, too, and said, "so, Simon, what do you think of Jeff playing Dr. Jackson?"

Simon immediately understood what Emmerich meant, with a strange expression, and said, "are you going to copy Dr. Malcolm?"

Roland Emmerich nodded, then shook his head and said, "of course there will be some changes."

If Jeff goblin is used in this "wonder of the universe", then the next "Independence Day" will be in some trouble.

Levinson in independence day, to a large extent, reproduces Malcolm in Jurassic Park. He is equally uninhibited, equally talented, and perhaps somewhat down-to-earth.

Shaking his head, Simon denied Emmerich's idea and said: "in this case, the emotional line of the script needs to be adjusted a lot. Jeff is older. What's more, it's too good to copy a "Dr. Malcolm." Jurassic Park is still on. Even next year, the audience should be more sensitive about it. I think that since Jackson can become a doctor at a very young age, he should have a kind of academic nerd character, some simple and dull, but erudite enough. "

Michael Bay, who listens attentively most of the time as an apprentice, said: "Simon, the two leading actors, one is serious, the other is dull. When a movie is made, it will certainly look dull. According to the traditional brotherhood film mode, the characters of the two leading characters should show a clear contrast. "

Simon sniffed and nodded: "this is really a problem. Let's adjust commander O'Neill's character to make him more humorous."

So he noticed that both of them were thinking. Simon looked at the time and said, "forget it. You can discuss it again in private and come up with an amendment. We'll make an appointment at that time."

They agreed, and they discussed some details. Roland Emmerich and Michael Bay got up and left.

Seeing them off, Simon rushed to another conference room in the office building.

There are already a lot of people waiting for him here, including Robert rem, who is now president of paramount pictures after several twists and turns.

Others, mainly the creators of the mission impossible series.

In addition to the long established "mission impossible" series actor Nicholas Cage, the project has been casting since the second half of last year.

The original version of mission impossible, at least in the first few films, takes Tom Cruise as the core. Although the film has a good team embryonic form at the beginning, Tom Cruise's strong character does not allow anyone to compete for his own light in a film. At the same time, for the sake of film remuneration, he does not allow others who are close to cruise Star.It was not until later that the attraction of soup to the audience was not so strong that mission impossible series paid more attention to other team members and introduced "eagle eye" Jeremy Reiner and "Superman" Henry Carville to enhance the box office appeal of the film.

This time, frankly speaking, Nicholas Cage's box office appeal is still far from that of Tom Hanks, so Simon intends to adopt a relatively opportunistic team model from the beginning.

Of course, for the sake of sequel pay, the team members will not be completely fixed. However, Luther, a computer expert played by Wen Reims, and Benjamin, a clown like Simon Peggy, who can increase jokes, will be fixed from the beginning.

Considering the freshness, the heroine needs to be replaced.

This also gives the project a lot of room to operate.

In the original version, because of Tom Cruise's various principles, the heroine is basically not the first line, absolutely can't suppress the hero's light, and can't be too tall. Cage certainly doesn't need these "Taboos".

Therefore, compared with the original version of the first film Emmanuel BEA, which is not well-known in North America, danielis entertainment plans to use a first-line actress this time.

Up to now, besides Nicholas Cage, the director has made a decision, because the original Brian De Palma wants to shoot "the dawn of love owls", Simon also thinks that the other party is not suitable.

After several searches, Philip Noyce, an Australian director who has just directed "the bell of midnight", has successfully won the guide tube. This Australian director has directed Harrison Ford's "patriot game", "burning eyebrow pursuit" and Angelina Jolie's "agent salt" on the original time line.

The box office blockbuster "midnight bell" also proves that the director, who has made personal films since he was a child, is a versatile director similar to George Miller's, and is enough to support the project.

The roles of hacker master Luther and colleague Benjamin have also been determined.

Luther is still played by the original Van Reems. Simon and Reems have worked together in the vulgar novel. Simon knows the black actor's excellent acting skills.

Simon page is still a nobody now, so Benjamin's role can only be changed, and finally Dana cavy, who is the partner of Mike Meyers in the anti intelligence, is chosen. Although the comedic talent of this actor is not as good as that of Mike Meyers, it is just right in the big commercial production of mission impossible.

Franz, played by Jean Renault in the original, was basically cut off this time.

As a big movie star in Europe, Jean Renault will not always play a supporting role in a Hollywood film project. The original version adopts two European giants, Jean Renault and Emmanuel bea. Besides being cheap, it should also consider the European market.

Simon is not worried about that.

Hollywood movies already have strong enough output attributes, so it doesn't need to use local actors to get good impression in the market. Even, sometimes forced to say so, it will make the film appear nondescript.

The heroine is still in the final stage of discussion.

Both paramount and his creative team prefer famik Jensen as the heroine of the first film.

Famik Jensen's performance in last summer's first movie "Wonder Woman" really impressed the audience and confirmed his image as a leading actress and action star for the first time.

Simon hesitated.

On the original time line, "eagle eye" and "Dachao" joined mission impossible one after another. On the one hand, eagle eye was not the core of Marvel's movie universe series. On the other hand, the ups and downs of DC movie universe made Warner unable to limit Henry Carvel's choice of other action movies.

Now the DC movie universe is different.

For Denise entertainment, DC movie universe must be a priority. Simon will never allow DC movie stars to play roles similar to their superheroes in other movies, thus consuming the popularity of DC movie universe.

In recent years, Valerie Gallino, a woman in the DC movie universe, has developed very well outside the superhero series. However, the corresponding roles, such as jasper Kobayashi in last year's peach trade, and the sexy cat girl in Batman Series, are totally two concepts.

In this time's "mission impossible", Simon hopes that the heroine has enough character, not just a vase. Simon doesn't even worry that she will suppress the edge of the hero Nicholas Cage. It's easier for the heroine to excite the audience with sparks.

If you use famik Jensen, the actress who has just become famous by virtue of wonder woman, to play a "spanking girl" in an action film, the role creation will inevitably move closer to Diana Prince, which Simon absolutely does not want to see.

In the conference room, we discussed the preparations for mission impossible for more than half an hour, but it was hard to avoid talking about the heroine in the end.

Simon no longer hesitated. He didn't want it to be too sloppy. He directly denied, "forget about famik. You'd better discuss other people. Well, not to mention Valerie. I don't want a second Catwoman in the movie. In addition, you can get in touch with other front-line actresses. Of course, I want to remind you that you only have one month. "According to the plan, "mission impossible" is expected to start in late February. If there is no accident, it will take six to seven months to shoot and finish in late September at the latest.

If you can't find the heroine when shooting starts next month, you can only look while shooting. This kind of thing is very common in Hollywood, and the first heroine's part is not too much.

For action movies, of course, it's more appropriate for action movie actresses to take part. Not only the role image, but also the shooting experience. Female stars who have participated in action movies are more suitable than those who have not participated in similar movies.

Simon directly passed famik Jensen and Valerie Gallino, the team's favorite. Everyone was a little depressed, but the work still needs to continue.

Robert REM said, "so, Simon, do you think Miss Nicole Kidman is OK?"

Simon smiles and shakes his head. "Nicole has no schedule."

Batman: The Dark Knight, which will be released next summer, will also be filmed in the first half of this year.

Nicole Kidman is the confirmed actor of poison ivy girl. With the girl's temperament, she is more suitable for mission impossible.

REM did not give up immediately, said: "I know, but, adjust it should be no problem."

Simon once again dismissed REM's idea: "I hope Nicole can concentrate on the shaping of poison ivy girl."

All right.

Everyone looked at each other.

In recent years, Hollywood blockbuster has just emerged, and there are not many female stars suitable for action movies.

Simon put the team's favorite actors all pass, but he couldn't find a more suitable person for a while.

Skip this topic for a moment and let's talk about other topics.

So busy at noon, lunch or work meal, as usual with the female assistant, as well as Amy Pascal and new world film director Denny Morris.

In the dining room, we briefly discussed with Amy the progress of the financial audit work of danielis entertainment in 1992. Simon turned to Denny Morris and asked about several recent projects of new world pictures.

There are mainly three plays.

It's a vulgar comedy. It's called detective airplane.

On the original time line, "detective plane head" was released earlier than "a fool and a melon", which is the famous work of Kim Carey.

There are two other plays, one is called "the morgue is haunted" and the other is called "evocation".

Just listen to the name, it's two horror movies.

The original time line, "the morgue haunted event" and "evocation" were both shot after the new millennium. However, the two stories were changed according to the real events in the United States, such as "evocation". Before the original production in 2013, this project had been fully prepared for 20 years. "The morgue haunted incident" is also a real story that was listed in the news of American newspapers more than ten years ago.
