Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 747 Iron Man

In March, Tang En will complete the recording of his first album.

Because he has released a single before, in order to continue the singing style, genre and musical skills, he once again possessed the ability of "Prince" Prince. Currently, 10 songs have been created.

Including "tik_tok", "just_give_me_a_reason", "see_you_again", "bang_bang", "poker_face", "fireork" and other hit songs.

Because this album mainly supports new female singers under Universal Music, Tang En chose mostly songs with female vocals.

Of course, music is just a trail in the entertainment industry.

Movies are the trump card.

After the Oscars, all of Hollywood goes into action.

Dozens of film projects started at the same time.

Among them, there are 5 commercial blockbusters launched by New Universal alone!

They are "Ant-Man 2", "Iron Man", "Daredevil 2", "King Kong" and "Night at the Museum".

In addition, in April, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" directed by Tim Burton was launched; in May, "The Da Vinci Code" directed by Ron Howard and "Harry Potter and the Chocolate Factory" directed by Mike Neville Goblet of Fire" was launched; in June, "Thor" directed by Matthew Vaughn was launched.

In July, New Universal's most important movie project of the year - "The Avengers" was launched, and the director...Dawn Walker!

There is no doubt that among the several major productions, Marvel Pictures has taken the lead.

However, the preparations for the film were not all smooth sailing.

Ant-Man 2 and Daredevil 2 are both full-fledged sequel projects, so rest assured.

The director of "Thor" Matthew Vaughan has a ten-year production career, but he has only made one film "Layer Cake". Although he has a good reputation, he has less experience in filming. There was some controversy within Marvel Studios when he was chosen as the director.

In the end, Tang En made the final decision.

Even more troublesome is "Iron Man"!

As early as September last year, the project was established, the director was Jon Favreau, and the starring role was Robert Downey Jr.

However, with the prosperity and fame of Marvel movies, especially after the release of "Ant-Man", the popcorn tendency has become more and more serious, and the age of the audience is getting lower and lower.

"Iron Man" will also be a light-hearted and humorous popcorn movie.

But it wouldn't be great to cast a junkie with a lot of bad convictions in the lead role?

When the media heard the news that Marvel Pictures chose Robert Downey Jr. as the protagonist, they had strong doubts about it.

Even within Hollywood, many people secretly hinted to Tang En that it was a wrong choice to support Robert Downey Jr.

The film started, and Tang En specially went to the film road in Penang, California to visit the crew of "Iron Man".

"How's it going, Bob?"

Tang En's target, of course, is Robert Downey Jr.

This is the key training object.

Although Marvel in this life does not need to be saved by Robert Downey Jr. However, the role of "Iron Man" he played is undoubtedly the most pleasing and most in line with the public's psychological expectations.

Just like "Black Widow" played by Scarlett Johansson.

The superheroes they represent are much more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people than actors such as the US team, the Hulk, Thor, Ant-Man, and Spider-Man.

Why?

Because Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson are almost the best actors in the main roles of the Avengers universe.

"Everything is fine, thank you."

Robert Downey Jr.'s gratitude to Tang En was from the inside out.

Last year, it was Tang En's speech when he was awarded the honorary policeman of Los Angeles that moved him and made him make up his mind to completely quit drugs!

Then, good luck came.

He received an invitation from the crew of "Iron Man".

Tang En punched him on the chest, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have practiced well in the past few months, and your body is strong enough!"

"I haven't been the protagonist for a long time, and it's such an important project, I will do my best." Robert Downey Jr. took a deep breath and was very polite.

Tang En nodded and said: "Of course, I believe you. Don't worry about what the outside media say, they are all a bunch of ignorant idiots. Your performance in the past few months has made me and the entire "Iron Man" crew feel It's your belief. The role of Iron Man is tailor-made for you!"

"Thanks."

There was a bit of excitement in Robert Downey Jr.'s eyes.

He knew that his unbearable experience in the past had a bad influence on the crew.

Originally, the "Little Pepper" candidate that director Jon Favreau valued was the new "Sweet Sister" Rachel McAdams.

As a result, Rachel McAdams was afraid of cooperating with an addict, afraid of affecting her "sweet sister" image, so she chose to refuse.

This is how Twain recognized Jessica Chastain as "Little Pepper".

Tang En smiled, his eyebrows twitched, "Is there any problem with the contract?"

Robert Downey Jr. was a big client!

He will be the ace actor of Marvel Studios in the future!

Then, I heard Robert Downey Jr. excitedly say: "I have always been a loyal fan of the original Marvel comics, let alone 10. If the series will make 15 sequels, I will insist on making 15 sequels." Hero!"

Tang En's expression was a little strange.

Looking at his swearing appearance, if Tang En had not had the experience of foresight, he would have almost believed it.

In the "Iron Man" series in the previous life, only "Iron Man 3" was filmed and it was impossible to shoot.

"Iron Man 4" has been in preparation, but has been unable to start.

Robert Downey Jr. offered a salary of 50 million U.S. dollars, plus an astonishing salary condition of 10% of box office profit dividends.

It's too exaggerated, it's even more ruthless than Tom Cruise's "Mission: Impossible" series!

Now, it is the lowest point of Robert Downey Jr.'s career, and Marvel Pictures can certainly buy the bottom.

According to the usual practice, it will continue to be the Overlord Clause, the same as "Spiderman" James Franco, 10 film appointments, no less!

$20 million pay cap.

Lock it up with a contract first.

Hey, acting skills!

Sure enough, he is an acting actor!

However, it is a pity.

With 10 film contracts on his body, Robert Downey Jr. can only wear the invisible cloak of "Iron Man" in his life, and he will never have any illusions about Oscar.

The roles are solidified.

Unless you can win the Oscar actress by gaining weight, shaving your eyebrows, and acting ugly like Charlize Theron.

What is not broken is not established. For many actors with solidified images, only by appearing in another strange image and showing superb acting skills can they impress the judges.

Another example is last year's Oscar winner Nicole Kidman.

She won the award for "The Moments" because she wore a fake nose when she performed, which completely changed her inherent beauty.

Of course, this is all for later.

If Robert Downey Jr. can be more sincere and less perfunctory like Leonardo in future contacts.

Then, after creating huge value for Marvel, Twain might help him break through and win awards.

After all, in terms of acting skills, he is qualified.

Tang En and Robert Downey Jr. hadn't chatted a few words before Isla Fisher hurried over with a bad expression, holding a magazine in her hand.

"What's wrong?"

Tang En was a little strange.

She was holding Vanity Fair magazine.

The Oscars are just over, and Vanity Fair is on top of its best-selling season, with lots of very popular entertainment news and exclusive celebrity photos.

"There is a report, it's too much!" Isla Fisher opened the magazine and handed it over.

When Tang En saw it, his face turned cold.

This is an investigative report on the Woody Allen incident.

It's a long report.

The content...has a clear suspicion of being biased towards Mia Farrow. (https:)
