From "Pacific War" to "Love Crazy", Renly has been rolling in Hollywood for two and a half years. This year, he ushered in an upward momentum across the board. "300 million in North America, and then 100 million in "Love Crazy", the speed of rise is really unstoppable.

Especially "Love Crazy". It's not as simple as Renly's second straight showing of box-office appeal.

In "Fast \u0026 Furious 5", Renly is only the third protagonist. Even if the momentum is sensational, the media is lively, and the audience is booing again, the major film companies and industry insiders will still take the credit for Fan- On Diesel and Paul Walker. Just look at Universal Pictures' attitude.

Now, "Crazy in Love" is not only the first North American film with Renly as a leading actor to break 100 million yuan, but also as the leading actor in a romantic movie - just like Richard Gere, George Clooney, Matthew -Like actors such as McConaughey, such films will always be an important magic weapon to gain the female audience market.

First there was the tough-guy "Fast and Furious 5", and then there was the romanticized "Love Crazy". Renly's market value is no longer the same.

In fact, the North American 100 million of "Crazy Love" is even more incredible than the North American 300 million of "Fast and Furious 5": this is an independent film work without stars, gimmicks, and no box office potential, and now However, it broke the shackles of market rules and wrote a breakthrough that has not been achieved since 2001. As a well-deserved number one hero, Renly's status and weight are naturally rising.

After "Fast and Furious 5" created a box office miracle, "Entertainment Weekly" once wrote an article, whether Universal Pictures contributed to the fire is unknown, but it is certain that Cornell McGregor There is no intention to make war with Renly as jade.

In the article, Cornell stressed that Renly still needs to prove himself. The success of "Fast and the Furious 5" has made countless people start to get hot, and there are countless voices who are chasing Renly, but the biggest contributor to the success of this film should be director Justin Lin, followed by supporting the series of films to the fifth part. Fan and Paul, again, it was Renly who brought the chemistry. The so-called "300 million in North America" ​​is a victory, but Renly needs to calm down and look for opportunities to prove his market value, not just a third protagonist.

After this article was originally published, it was poured down like a bucket of cold water on the raging fire of the summer vacation, causing a lot of controversy, but there are more supporters.

But just a few months later, "Love Crazy" turned out, but it was like a straight punch, which was strong and firm to Cornell's cheek, fast, accurate, and powerful. Without any words, success is always the best response to doubters.

There is no counter-attack that will ignore the "crazy in love" to break the law of the market, even Universal Pictures will not. To be precise, Universal Pictures will not. For the six major Hollywood film companies, being prepared to seize the opportunity, accurately measure the trend, and prepare to predict the future is an important magic weapon for them to stand firm.

There is no need to wait for the North American box office of "Crazy Love" to break 100 million. It was only the second week that Focus Pictures expanded its screenings like crazy, but "Crazy Love" easily defeated "Iron Armored Steel Fist" with a strong performance. , to win the North American weekend box office chart, which is enough for Focus Pictures - Universal Pictures naturally knows how difficult it is to achieve this result.

This was a crucial turning point for the "Fast and the Furious" sequel talks.

As "Entertainment Weekly" said, Renly needs to prove himself more, and now, Renly has proved that, which means that with one rumor and two sequels, the market potential is skyrocketing, not just Renly's personal box office value , but Renly's added value to the "Fast and Furious" brand has become the key to shaking Universal Pictures.

What's more, Andy Rogers is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

After the Toronto Film Festival, the latest news came out from inside Disney, "Crazy in Love" attracted much attention in Toronto, Renly beat George Clooney and Brad Pitt to become the king of popularity, which made Renly in "different". The leading actor in "Star Wars" has seized the opportunity in the audition. This Disney's annual drama, with a budget of 250 million US dollars, is definitely a blockbuster work.

At the same time, according to internal rumors, the negotiations between Paul Walker and Universal Pictures hit the rocks, and it was heard that Vin Diesel, as a producer, has become more and more powerful in his creative concept of the sequel of "Fast and Furious", and his personal role has increased. At the same time, requiring more personal dazzling parts, relatively speaking, Paul's role was severely cut.

Paul himself does not matter, but Jordana Brewster, Gal Gadot, Cheng Kang and others expressed their dissatisfaction and stood behind Paul one after another. reason? It's very simple, because their roles also need to be adjusted.

The rumor was subsequently denied by Fan himself, and Tyrese Gibson also said that the rumor was false. But Paul, Jordana, Gale and others avoided talking. Renly, who is the center of attention, has repeatedly refused to respond in Toronto, saying that all attention needs to be focused on the "crazy love" propaganda.

On October 5th, Universal Pictures officially started casting for "Fast \u0026 Furious 6". The selection of important roles this time has reached double digits, demonstrating Universal Pictures' determination to push the series to a new peak. It has attracted a lot of attention in the Hollywood industry, attracting potential rising stars such as Joel Kinnaman, Charlie Hunnam (), Bill Skarsgard (Birard), Liam Hemsworth, etc. Notice.

Rumored, in the midst of a sequel, Dominic

, Hobbes will face more severe challenges. Therefore, the crew needs more potential and powerful actors to join. In the fifth, they made the name of Hobbes; then in the sequel, they can make the name of another newcomer again.

what does that mean?

Later, during the "Love Crazy" promotion, Renly addressed the "Fast and the Furious" sequel head-on for the first time in two months.

"Yes, of course, we're actively discussing it. I'm looking forward to the role of Luke Hobbs, I mean, he's not quite like the other characters I've played. Maybe a little bit thicker, maybe a bit more direct and hot , but he's certainly an interesting character. I'm hoping to unearth more to give this work more meaning. But, it's been a rough ride and we still have a lot of work to do. So, let's Let's wait and see."

This gesture of goodwill is widely seen as a sign of a consensus between Renly and Universal; and, that's not all.

Paul Walker attended the "Crazy Love" Los Angeles fan meeting, and in an interview, he also said, "I'm very much looking forward to working with Renly again. Last time, I had too little head-to-head with him, I'm looking forward to a good fight. Enemy? Yes, of course, Brian and Hobbs are enemies. As for friends in the future lol, I'm looking forward to Renly for the role of Luke Hobbs more possibilities.”

No mention of his contract renewal, no mention of his friendship with Fan, just focusing on Renly. Of course, this can be explained that this is the home ground of "Crazy Love", and it is not suitable to talk about too many other works, but the media smelled abnormal.

Despite this, Renly and Paul have made positive comments, which also gives the media reason to believe that the "Fast and the Furious" rumor and sequel is really coming, at least Universal Pictures is walking in the right direction. on the road.

But then, rumors broke out inside Warner Bros., that the actor in Tim Burton's "Shadow" favors Renly. Because Tim likes the retro and elegant temperament of Renly, which coincides with the hero of the new work. The news has been widely discussed, and if true, it would be the first time since 2003's "Big Fish" that Tim has used an actor other than Johnny Depp for the lead role.

Immediately afterwards, the latest news came from "Alien Battlefield", and Renly was infinitely close to the final contract of the male protagonist. For a while, Renly's limelight was unparalleled. At least three blockbuster male protagonists were locked in Renly—even if not, they had entered the final stage, and these three works were all super blockbusters. Such a hot situation is enviable and exciting.

In the midst of this uproaring news, people in the industry have always maintained a wait-and-see attitude, because they know that there are variables in everything before the official decision is made. What's more, these news are really flying in the sky, and it is difficult for them to be true or false. It is not an easy task to identify and find the truth of things in the chaos.

Even being in it is no exception. That was the case with Jack Wallace and Dwayne Johnson.

Dawn knew that things didn't go as smoothly as the media suggested. Because the "Fast and the Furious" crew contacted his agent Jack as early as the beginning of September, but this time it was not Neil-h-Moretz, but Michael-Fortrey. They invited Dawn to play a major role in the sequel, and promised that the role would never be too light.

In this regard, Jack expressed skepticism. He believes that, in fact, the positions of Dawn and Renly have been reversed, and the crew just wants to use Dawn as a sharpening stone, but now Renly has the advantage that Dawn did not have last year: "Speed ​​and passion/love 5" success. Therefore, Jack is not optimistic about this negotiation.

But even so, Jack was ready to give it a try. Once seized, such an opportunity would skyrocket, just like last year's Renly; even if they missed it, they had nothing to lose.

But with the development of time, Jack's conjecture is gradually becoming a reality: Universal Pictures has always been reluctant to give up Renly, although Michael and him have always been close, and the negotiations are all very smooth, but once again fell into trouble in terms of remuneration. A dead end, at present, Michael still has no plans to let go. Such a situation seems familiar.

Suddenly, the office door was slammed open, and Jack's assistant came in and said anxiously, "Andy Rogers is on Line 3."
