Ace Hollywood

Seeing the rapid increase in the number of posts on the page, Daniel understands that his popularity has taken another leap, and he does not need to worry about the loss of popularity, because there are three Lord of the Rings, which is enough to consolidate his popularity, not to mention There is the Hobbit series.

"When you decided to get this role, did you expect this outcome?"

Looking at the posts of those crazy young movie fans, Cusa couldn't help but have some wonderful ideas about Daniel's choice.

He still remembers what Daniel said to him when he took the role. Yes, Legolas has given them such a big surprise before it even appeared.

With Fred's information pouring in to Daniel and Cusa, Triver—now a full-fledged member of Daniel's team—has also received a lot of feedback from the media network.

"It was an unexpected explosion scene."

Triver put the thick material on the coffee table, "Although "The Fellowship of the Ring" has attracted much attention, Legolas is indeed a very unimportant character. Earlier I thought that your current worth is nothing big in a movie. Playing a supporting role in a star's movie is a bit too cheap."

Triver didn't just talk about it, since he officially took over Daniel's PR, he did suggest to Cusa and Daniel that they should get in touch with Peter Jackson to see if Daniel's material could be discarded, Re-select a Legolas - Now is a critical time for Daniel. If he is single-minded in the lead role, then he is stepping on the Oscars to become a first-class role as a matter of course. But this insignificant role in "The Fellowship of the Ring" may have affected the establishment of his professional impression.

Of course, both Daniel and Cusa refused, and their reasons were the same.

Daniel did not consider this issue in terms of the huge amount of attention the Elf Prince might receive. He and Cusa both believed that the cost and potential image crisis would come naturally, compared to letting Peter re-select the personnel to shoot. More cost-effective.

However, when the current situation arises, no one will think that this role is not worth it.

The popularity of the so-called "nothingness" is definitely one of the most important things in Hollywood, and it is not on a par with the Oscars - the most obvious representative is Leonardo. Book.

How Daniel will operate this popularity will require additional work from the team collectively.

"Jerry wants to invite you to the premiere of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii."

Yep, Jerry Bruckheimer's, Michael Bay's war titular -- big enough, over $150 million, it's coming out recently, and Disney's going to have a big premiere for it present.

"To be honest, Cusa, I think people expect too much from Michael Bay, whether it's James Cameron in Titanic or Steven in Saving Private Ryan, it's far from Michael Bay. It can be compared. You look at the current media, and even Disney’s own publicity caliber, they are comparing these two works, which is a bit whimsical.”

"You don't like "Pearl Harbor" so much?" Cusa raised his eyebrows in surprise, and suddenly thought of something, "Do you think this film might make Michael Eisner step down?"

This is a bold guess.

Walt Disney CEO Michael Eisner and his lieutenant Robert Iger are both big names in Hollywood, and of course, the former is far more visible now than the latter. However, Cusa remembered that Daniel seemed to be a little more attentive to Robert, and that this shift seemed to come at a time when "Pearl Harbor" began to show its way.

Daniel didn't answer him, Robert Iger would replace Michael Eisner, and soon, he didn't know whether it was because of "Pearl Harbor", but the process was not so important, the result was important.

"So you want to reject Jerry?"

"No, make it clear to him that I'm not very optimistic about "Pearl Harbor". If I don't watch it, I can still say a few good things."

"So direct?"

"Yes, you don't like direct? Isn't Jones direct?"

Cusa rolled his eyes. He and Jones had come a little closer recently. It seemed that the two of them were really about to give birth to the fire of the **** of love.

…

"My God." Andy patted his frightened chest, "It's scary."

Daniel is going to attend a public event of Burberry today - this is the responsibility of the spokesperson, but the number of people gathered at the scene greatly exceeded the expectations of the security personnel. Even though the local police temporarily deployed nearly a hundred police officers to maintain order, thousands of people crowded at the event site. It still made everyone sweat.

The police chief communicated with Burberry and asked to cancel the event.

In fact, Burberry doesn't have much opinion. Their purpose has basically been achieved. Is there any more hot publicity than the current situation? Secondly, of course, they are also afraid of public accidents such as stampedes.

However, when Burberry announced that the event needed to be cancelled due to overcrowding, the crowd showed signs of commotion. They had to temporarily change their minds and asked Daniel to come to power to call for order.

When most of the people were sweating, Daniel came to the stage with a gentle smile, humbly and politely asking everyone to pay attention to safety.

Of course, the activity was much faster than expected. The activity that was originally about an hour lasted only 20 minutes.

When Andy got back into the car, his heart was still beating wildly.

"This is crazy popularity. I have no doubt that if Daniel walked into the crowd now, he would definitely not have a single hair left." Melissa said.

Andy nodded in agreement. The crazy look she saw in the eyes of those young girls left a deep impression on her. Daniel has always been regarded as a popular star, but such a scene is unprecedented. Those people almost wanted to swallow him.

"Danny, this may become the norm in the future. Think about it, MGM is really going to be crazy happy."

"Pretty Beauty" has entered the promotion period, Daniel's surge in popularity this time is almost equal to millions of publicity expenses for "Pretty Beauty", because most of the reports will be based on Daniel's latest work, which is "Pretty Beauty". Legally Blonde" took it out and mentioned it.

"Anyway, you still have to get a 5% share, otherwise you'll lose a lot."

Of course, this five percent is no longer enough for Daniel to give more.

Jerry Bruckheimer has replied to Kusa, so Daniel doesn't have to go to Hawaii. Jerry is not unhappy. From his perspective, what is the standard of this movie, I'm afraid it may not be necessary to wait until the film critics attack it collectively. It's just that the market is full of wonderful chemical effects, and bad movies don't necessarily have no box office. What's more, with Disney's operational capabilities, the number of openings for this movie exceeds at least 3,200 screens, with 20 million on the first day and 60 million on the first weekend. There should be no problem with the above. Although this forecast is lower than the current general forecast of over 100 million in four days, it is not bad. After all, movies such as "Shrek" and "The Mummy Return" are still reaping the box office. It is not without opponent.

Then, after Daniel met with the post-production team of "My Great Greek Wedding" to determine his ideas, he will rush to Paris to make up "Bourne Bourne". Doug Liman got a year from Universal, and he is working hard. , Daniel also had to arrange time to do some reshoots. On top of that, Peter Jackson called early and Legolas needed a lot of reshoots, which shows they've made a decision to play Legolas instead of highlighting the whole movie. Special effects, story, to suppress Daniel's Legolas.

This is a good thing—because New Line will pay a lot of money, a million.

Of course, this is inseparable from Cusa's work. In fact, the contract that Daniel signed now seems to be too out of date. 70,000, this is the price of those unknown characters in the Actors Guild who have a few lines, and it has almost nothing to do with the current Daniel.

This time, New Line and Peter decided to make up a lot of scenes. Of course, Cusa has a way to get the other party to come up with a new contract voluntarily.

One million is not the price of re-shoots, but a new compromise performance contract, UU Kanshu www. uukanshu.com for all of Daniel's performances in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

By the time he completes the reshoots of these two films, he will almost enter July. According to the contract, he needs to officially enter the promotion work of "Pretty Beauty" until it is released in mid-July.

Looking at his itinerary in the car, Daniel patted his forehead, "What about my vacation, I remember that I planned a vacation before."

Melissa and Andy looked at each other and remained silent.

"Maybe after "Pretty Beauty", I can go to escape the summer or something."

Daniel could only comfort himself like this.

At the end of May, "Pearl Harbor" was officially released. The box office of 75.17 million yuan in the first week was still quite eye-catching, but the media's evaluation was almost one-sided and negative. The film's thin plot and the actors' shallow acting skills became the biggest attack points. The next box office trend still needs to look at the word of mouth given by the first wave of audiences. From IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, of course, it has nothing to look forward to.

Daniel started to fly to Europe at this time to make up for "Bourne Bourne". By the way, he also needed to communicate with Polanski about "The Pianist". He needed to start a diet at least a few months in advance to match the figure of a pianist in World War II. , In addition, piano and history training also needs to be done.

It's no exaggeration to describe Daniel non-stop. After staying in Paris for more than half a month, he flew directly to New Zealand to meet Peter, and some old friends who had opposite scenes also flew back. At least, Daniel relieved his full of irritability - non-stop The work and the non-stop itinerary really make people feel disgusted.
