How huge the influence of Hollywood's top superstars is, Tom Cruise is a good example. Not only does he have his own royal team, after taking over a script, he takes over the production of the entire work, focusing on him from the beginning to the end, and tailor-made it; and the selection of other actors by the crew must go through him nodding and deciding, even The heroine was chosen by him.

That's true of Jack Reacher, it's true of Forsaken, and it's true of Edge of Tomorrow. That's the real top producer; Vin Diesel was a junior producer on "Fast and the Furious" by comparison.

In other words, without Tom, there would be no "Edge of Tomorrow" in the last life, not to mention the success or failure of the box office. Success is because of Tom; failure is because of Tom. It's a paradox, but it's normal in Hollywood, and "Small Shadow" is another case.

So what about this time?

Can "Edge of Tomorrow" be filmed without Tom? In the absence of Tom, the screenwriting, production, lighting, photography, art and other links will all be reshuffled. Can "Edge of Tomorrow" still guarantee the quality of the previous life? In the absence of a big name, is the director still willing to take over, or is the director willing to accept Renly?

In the absence of Tom, the co-stars of the crew will inevitably have undergone earth-shaking changes from the previous life. Is it guaranteed that "Edge of Tomorrow" will win the hearts and minds of film critics? In the absence of Tom, Warner Bros.' investment costs and publicity budgets are bound to change dramatically. Can "Edge of Tomorrow" break the situation of the previous life and achieve a big box office success?

...

"Renly?" Andy and Roy exchanged glances. Renly held the script and was stunned for a long time, as if he was lost in thought, reminiscent of his usual state of reading the script in the crew, but he was completely stunned. For ten minutes, Renly didn't say a word, didn't move, both of them were a little worried, and finally Andy called out aloud.

Renly jumped out of his thoughts, raised his head, and then saw Andy and Roy asking questions, and his thoughts began to return to his senses.

"It's getting late today. You just came back from vacation, so just rest well." Andy continued, "The two scripts are put here first, you read them first, and then we will discuss." After that, Andy said Ready to get up and leave.

"Aren't we rushing for time now?" Renly's voice stopped Andy's movements, and then he saw the confident and calm smile on Renly's face, "Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to wait all night, today. Come right here in the evening."

A smile flashed in Andy's eyes, "Even if you are in a hurry, you won't be in a hurry these few days. This is not the ever-changing stock market." With that, Andy's words became more relaxed.

Time must be urgent. The more time is left for him, the more space he has to perform. Recently, Universal Pictures has been doing a lot of action. Andy's idea is to borrow the recent Toronto Film Festival and the release of "Crazy Love". Convenience and seize more advantages. However, Renly needs time to read the script, and the next period of time will definitely be busy, so Andy gave the script to Renly as soon as possible, giving him enough time to read the script in depth.

"But if the decision can be made as soon as possible, I can start working as soon as possible, which is of course a good thing." Andy continued, his eyes still on Renly, and he could not guess what Renly was thinking at the moment.

"Then you get in touch with the 'Edge of Tomorrow' crew. Tim Lewis or someone else, that's your job," Renly said neatly.

Andy smiled habitually to hide his surprise, but then he realized that he was not an opponent but a partner, and his surprised expression gradually showed, and his brows could not help but frown, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure." Without any hesitation, without any hesitation, Renly pulled his chin indifferently but firmly, "I will read both scripts further, even if it is not for the audition, I will read them. That way, even if I make the wrong choice, I can show some regrets by screwing up the audition."

Seeing that Renly was still joking, the surprise in Andy's eyes gradually turned into a real smile, "I mean, are you sure? Is there no other choice?"

"Are you talking about the other scripts from the last time?" Renly opened the skylight and said brightly, "I have read all those scripts, and I have no interest in Quentin." Renly solemnly told Roy and Andy Declaring their position, the humorous tone made the two exchange their gazes, and both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Other words, I agree with Roy's conclusion. 'Dragon Tiger Youth Team' and 'Ring Messenger' are items worth considering." Renly formally affirmed Roy, although the three did not express it on the surface, this sentence Everyone has a different weight in their hearts. At least, the cooperation has had a good start. "But the 'Dragon Tiger Youth Team' is over. As for the 'Ring Messenger'..."

Renly paused for a moment, considered his words, and then said, "I haven't read the script of 'Edge of Tomorrow' yet, so I can't make a judgment. However, the two works have similar themes and the same genre, and the characters may also have similarities. So, no matter which one you choose, it doesn't seem to make much difference. But, let me state in advance that if the script of 'Edge of Tomorrow' is really too bad, then I will stick to 'Ring Messenger'. Or, 'Black Shadows also keep their chances."

The last sentence added made Andy chuckle. Renly's tone can be heard, he is right

"Small Shadow" is really not very interesting, and the subject matter, style, type, and role seem to be unable to arouse Renly's interest. But Renly hasn't completely rejected it yet, it's nothing more than looking at Andy's face.

However, Andy couldn't pretend to be generous and just give up "Shadow". To be honest, among all the current projects, "Soul Shadow" has the greatest chance of success and is the most suitable. But Andy also needs to rethink, can Renly really fit Johnny's style?

"Okay, I see." Andy was still a little hesitant in his heart, but he knew that Renly was not an impulsive and willful person, and since he made a decision, it must have been carefully thought out. Also, "Ring Messenger" and then "Edge of Tomorrow" also speaks to Renly's interest in sci-fi movies, which is a good thing.

Even if the final collaborative project is not "Sombra", but "Edge of Tomorrow" or even "Ring Messenger", this is an acceptable result. If it wasn't acceptable, Andy wouldn't have submitted these scripts in the first place. Even if Renly was going to star in "Pitch Perfect," he could only agree with tears in his eyes.

"Read the script first, and leave the rest to me." Andy said this before leaving, and then he said goodbye to Roy, and tonight's informal meeting officially came to an end.

But Renly didn't rush to sleep, but actually started flipping through the script for "Edge of Tomorrow". It was a tough decision for Andy, but not so difficult for Renly.

Science fiction movies, this is indeed a type of film worth challenging. Now the types of science fiction movies are very wide. "Alien" is science fiction, "The Martian" is science fiction, "Moon" is science fiction, and "Gravity" is also science fiction. There must be a reason why this type of film can endure and continue to make good works.

Personally, Renly also likes quite a few sci-fi movies. The greatest sense of achievement in acting in sci-fi movies is not in the performance itself, but in living in the space of human exploration of fantasy, the unknown, the known, and the mystery, whether it is the universe and space, or the time and space shuttle in different dimensions, or a black hole Theory, whether it is a high-cost commercial masterpiece or a small-cost independent work, is in a world full of latitude and longitude, which is a great pleasure for actors in itself.

What's more, "Edge of Tomorrow" is a commercial film that Renly likes very much.

As works of similar themes, "Source Code", "Ring Messenger" and "Edge of Tomorrow" are more or less similar, and everyone has their own favorite type. In fact, in terms of comprehensive media reviews, " The 84 points of "Ring Messenger" is the highest, the 74 points of "Source Code" and the 71 points of "Edge of Tomorrow" are comparable, but in terms of box office, none of the three works can be called amazing. "Edge of Tomorrow"'s global 370 million easily overwhelmed the two competitors - of course, Tom Cruise's factor must be taken into account.

Personally, Renly's favorite is Edge of Tomorrow.

As a popcorn commercial movie, although the plot of "Edge of Tomorrow" is simple, the character building, main line advancement, and branch line assistance complement each other. The movie holds up. Not only the viewing process is hearty, but the viewing effect is also addictive.

More importantly, William Cage, played by Tom in the last life, is actually too templated, and almost follows Tom's usual routines and settings. There is nothing new about the role. During the performance, Tom even has some Stiff, and certain scenes feel awkward and embarrassing.

But what if it was Renly? If the script does not need to be fully developed with Tom as the core, then, can we reduce some handsome plots and add some plots related to the main line and characters? Some plots full of characters like friendship in arms?

When comparing "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Ring Messenger", Renly personally prefers the former; when comparing "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Fast and Furious 6", Renly personally still chooses former. Now, the opportunity is in front of him, and he naturally won't miss it.

Although it is said that without Tom, "Edge of Tomorrow" may no longer be the "Edge of Tomorrow" that Renly saw in the last life; although it is said that without Tom, "Edge of Tomorrow" is like a time bomb, there are too many There are many uncertain factors. But no matter what the result is, you will never know until you try it. It's never been Renly's style to be timid before a fight.

The first step is to read the script, to be precise, read the original script without the Tom Cruise factor.
