Heads Up Hollywood

The global box office of "Spider-Man" has accumulated more than 1.19 billion US dollars, becoming the second highest-grossing movie in film history after "Titanic". It is also reasonable for Tang En Pictures to hold a grand celebration party.

The celebration reception was personally arranged by the president of Tang En Pictures, Bill McNick, and arranged in the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills. Senior executives from Universal Pictures, Marvel Entertainment, Marvel Pictures, etc. were invited. Of course, "" Spider-Man crew.

This was a very formal occasion. Tang En and Natalie attended in costumes and appeared on time, which immediately attracted the attention of the entire reception.

Prior to this, the golden couples that everyone generally paid attention to were the male and female protagonists of "Spider-Man" James Franco and Jessica Alba.

"Director, long time no see. You look really good." James Franco had sharp eyes, and he might have been staring in this direction. When he saw Tang En appearing, he immediately ran over with a flattering expression on his face. , and complimented Natalie, "Miss Portman, your dress tonight is so beautiful."

"Thank you." Natalie smiled very professionally.

Tang En's heart was as calm as water.

Once upon a time, he was very optimistic about James Franco, and even made him a superstar similar to Leonardo Ricaprio.

However, regarding the dispute between Disney and Twain Pictures, James Franco was vague and silent, which greatly reduced Twain's impression of him.

In terms of IQ and EQ, James Franco is absolutely top-notch among actors, but because he is too smart, he always thinks of being a fencer, and no one can offend him.

Tang En hates this kind of person the most!

Even if everyone scolded Mel Gibson, saying he was stupid, irritable, and even racist, the loyalty and courage he showed at the critical moment of "being stupid" was worth remembering by Tang En for a lifetime.

Looking at James Franco's eyes again, Tang En lost the friendly and professional smile in the past, "It seems that you are doing well, pay attention to keeping fit, and in half a year, the sequel of "Spider-Man" will be released. Time to start."

"I know, hehe, I specially hired a nutritionist to guarantee that when I shoot the sequel half a year later, I will be in a stronger body than I am now!" James Franco signed a super-long film contract with Marvel Studios. There will be no escape from the character "Spider-Man".

Now that he has thought about it, since "Spider-Man" has caused a worldwide sensation, this role is destined to bring him an unparalleled halo effect. He wants to play Spider-Man well from life to career. this role.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the belated Jessica Alba also came over and looked at Tang En with complicated eyes.

Knowing that the two were having an affair, Natalie found a random reason and went to chat with someone else.

Seeing Jessica Alba, Tang En also felt a little uncomfortable.

Tang En's relationship with her was very short, and the relationship ended after the filming of "Spider-Man".

The reason why she was chosen as the female lead in "Spider-Man" was because of James Cameron's recommendation on the one hand, and on the other hand, Tang En really enjoyed her beauty.

But when filming "Spider-Man," problems arose.

This is a situation that has not been encountered before filming "Titanic", "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", and "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace".

Jessica Alba's face is... hard to shoot!

In the previous life, this girl was favored by Cameron, but she still wandered between the second and third lines, not without reason.

In terms of appearance, Jessica Alba is beautiful and stunning, and it can be called flawless. Compared with the three leading actresses that Twain has worked with before, Kate Winslet, Nicole Kidman, and Natalie Portman All must be beautiful.

However, film is a flowing art, which is fundamentally different from taking photos. It is not about looking beautiful, but looking good when you take pictures.

Otherwise, there are so many vase roles in Hollywood movies, and a large-scale casting is required. Just choose from the Victoria's Secret Angels, which almost includes the most beautiful faces in the world.

But the fact is that the face of a Victoria's Secret angel is usually only suitable for shooting floor plans. In other words, their faces are somewhat similar to the faces of Internet celebrities in later generations, they are all 2D faces, and what movies need is 3D faces.

For example, Kate Winslet in "Titanic", when the camera lens surrounds her with a 360-degree surround, the audience will not only not play, but will be immersed in the aesthetic and romantic atmosphere.

But when filming "Spider-Man", Jessica Alba caused Twain a lot of trouble.

Every time you shoot Jessica Alba's face, you have to find a good angle to make it stunning. It seems that the beauty of many Internet celebrities can only be maintained at a 45-degree angle for selfies.

It's not that shooting Jessica Alba from other angles isn't beautiful, it's just that it's not uniform!

When you shoot Kate Winslet in a 360, the beauty is uninterrupted, continuous, and Jessica Alba is not.

From the front, Jessica Alba's face is beautiful, soft, and flower-like.

But when changing the angle, the problem arises. Although she is of mixed race, she still has the characteristics of a Caucasian in the final analysis, with deep-set eye sockets, a high nose bridge, and a sharp jaw, which show strong and stubborn characteristics, which are completely different from the beautiful appearance of a positive Asian.

On the front is a beautiful and soft face that conforms to the aesthetics of Asians, and on the side is a sharp and cold face that conforms to the aesthetics of Europeans and Americans.

In the shaping of movie characters, a huge proportion is facial expressions, and Jessica Alba's face is obviously not suitable for detailed multi-angle close-ups.

With such characteristics, it is doomed that her acting path is very narrow, and she has to choose one or the other when shooting her face. For example, "Dark Angel of the End Times" gave up a lot of frontal close-ups and replaced them with more side shots to show the sharpness of her agent.

This is an innate condition, even if Twain turns a stone into gold, it cannot be changed.

He discovered this problem when he was filming "Spider-Man", so he kept Jessica Alba at arm's length, because he knew that she was created by Eli Emanuel as the first sister of the Endeavor agency.

But Tang En was really powerless.

"Hey Jessica, I heard you got a film?"

"Yes, "The Other Side of Heaven", I am the female number one." Jessica Alba's sweet smile really shined through the entire reception.

"Oh? Then I really want to congratulate you."

Jessica Alba shook her head modestly, showing a few white teeth, smiling sweetly, "It's all based on the momentum of "Spider-Man."

Tang En said with a smile: "There are still several "Spider-Man" films to be made, and your role is indispensable."

"Thank you." Jessica Albad paused, and took a deep look at Tang En. "In any case, I must thank you. "Spider-Man" was a turning point in my career."

"hehe."

Tang En smiled awkwardly, this topic was a bit uncomfortable.

Jessica Alba didn't have a high-level face, but her emotional intelligence was also a big problem. She didn't see Tang En's embarrassment at all, she pursed her lips, and said in a low voice: "Tang En, if...you still want to, I will always Can."

"Ahem..."

Tang En almost choked.

Of course he knew the meaning of what the other party said, but he was really not interested in having any more intimate super-friendship with her.

It's not good to pay back!

There are too many beautiful girls in Hollywood, no matter how beautiful Jessica Alba is, Twain will not face difficulties for a little beauty and create awkwardness for himself.

He did this kind of thing for physical enjoyment, not mental torture.

At this time, Dunn's little secretary, Ira Fisher, came to the rescue.

She is not tall, wearing a red and black striped body-shaping short dress, with a pair of high hats on her feet, trotting towards this side without any regard for her image, which attracted many people's attention.

"Be careful, don't fall!"

Tang En was startled, quickly took two steps, held her arm, and blamed, "Why are you running?"

Isla Fisher was out of breath, ignored Tang En's question, swallowed, and said nervously, "Eisner...Eisner is here!"

"who?"

"The chairman of Disney, Michael Eisner!"

"ah?"

Tang En's eyes suddenly widened, and his face instantly became extremely ugly.

Why is he here?
