"Do you want to notify them now? Or call them when you go back?" Justin Bediri had no objection to Evan Bell's decision, so he directly agreed with the decision.

Evan Bell thought for a while, "How are the other interviews going on today?" Although most of the actors in the "Blood Will Come" crew are mostly tricksters, not everyone can enter the crew, and the entire interview process is still relatively important.

"It went a lot better than expected, but it won't end today, at least it will be done tomorrow." Justin Bediri, as a senior casting director, has a clear grasp of the casting process in his mind, "and the most important thing is I still haven't found an actor for several of the characters." The so-called important here refers to the characters that have lines in the drama, and even the drama that plays a role in the development of the entire plot.

Evan Bell nodded, "Then call me after the interview is over."

Robert Faris stood next to him with a smile, "You are Gargamel, you usually seem so amiable to children, but now you make them suffer so much." This is right, the process of waiting for the interview results is a kind of torment

Evan Bell shook his head, "You don't describe it properly, the evil of Gargamel is written on my face, at most, I'm the big bad wolf dressed as the grandmother of Little Red Riding Hood." This serious answer made the meeting room. Everyone laughed, "If your child is suffering, I don't mind to inform him in advance, anyway, the interview result will not change unless Teddy wants to continue watching the child's interview tape and select another batch of interview children. ?"

Teddy Bell's simple and honest face suddenly showed a twitching expression, which is really rare, but think about it, after watching more than 800 interview tapes, if you want to continue, it is indeed a real torment. , it's no wonder Teddy Bell looks like this

Although Teddy Bell didn't speak, Justin Bediri still stood up and made a clearance, "Let Teddy relax a little, isn't he enough for the past two days? Let him rest." Teddy Bell is also rare Playing with the treasure once, he cooperated with a relieved expression, which made everyone laugh.

Things have been really busy in Eleven Studio recently. Although Teddy Bell doesn't have to manage directly, as CEO, his task is not shoes, especially Evan Bell has started to work again, which makes Teddy Bell The workload on my body has started to rise again. It has just begun in March. First, utube has to face the challenge of Hulu.com, and then the preparations for the filming of "Blood is Coming", and the preliminary preparations for "Mad Men" have also come to an end. "Three Hundred Spartans" is coming soon

Evan Bell began to prepare for the shooting of "The Blood Will Come" in Los Angeles, and the progress is very good. At least the selection of the small actors has been satisfactorily resolved, and it must be estimated that the filming can officially start within a week; and at the same time, Eleven Studio's long-prepared "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" will finally be officially released

In the just-concluded 2006, Eleven Studio launched three films, "High School Musical", "The Queen Wearing Prada" and "Perfume", of which the first two works are not directly related to Evan Bell, which is also Eleven For the first time since the establishment of the studio, it was the first time to separate from Evan Bell for the production of a film. "High School Musical" and "The Queen Wears Prada" both showed amazing appeal, both at the box office and word of mouth, which made everyone's eyes shine. , which also made "Three Hundred Spartans" attract everyone's attention when it was put into filming

"Spartan 300 Warriors" invested 65 million US dollars. This investment is on the same level as "Perfume", and Eleven Studio invested in such a film for Eleven without Evan Bell. For a studio to be considered a large-scale production, it is very necessary to have an adventurous spirit, which also shows that Eleven Studio is gradually getting rid of the strong influence of Evan Bell and showing stronger competitiveness. The work "Bada Three Hundred Warriors" has also become a touchstone for testing Eleven Studios, and it has a very important reference role for major film companies to further define the competitiveness of Eleven Studios

"High School Musical" achieved great results without competition in January last year, so it's not too surprising; the stunning performance of "The Queen Wears Prada" in the summer season was the first time everyone realized Eleven Studios The energy of the "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" is now a new indicator: Is Eleven Studio a surprise or a continuous high energy?

In fact, the choice of the "Spartan 300 Warriors" to move up in March when the competitiveness is not strong is also the result of discussions by Thomas Lansingcott-Laporte and others. This is not a lack of confidence. The distribution strategy plan specially researched by the film market is very important for a work, and choosing a correct schedule and correct strategy to release the work has a decisive impact on the promotion of the film

The style of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" continued the popular "Sin City" in 2005. The "Sin City" was able to create good results because there was a correct schedule, and they chose April 1 Released in a low season like Japan, it finally won a box office of 70 million US dollars in North America and 160 million US dollars worldwide. Compared with its investment of 40 million US dollars, this is definitely a A big win so "Sin City" is also known as one of the last remaining blockbusters of 2005

Strictly speaking, "Sin City" is not a blockbuster in the traditional sense. Its comic style style was not expected to create box office success at the beginning of its release. The reason why "Sin City" can achieve such excellent results, The schedule is one of the decisive factors. If it is placed in the summer season, under the impact of commercial blockbusters, the box office will definitely be compressed a lot, then perhaps you will not be able to see this unique comic adaptation movie.

Therefore, this time, "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" chose to be released in March in the spring file. It is also after comprehensive consideration. It can be seen from here that although the scale of the eleventh release is not comparable to that of large film companies, it is still very sophisticated. The admirable Thomas Lansing and others did not make mistakes in the distribution strategy of Sony Columbia Pictures. You must know that Sony Columbia Pictures suffered a lot from the mistakes of distribution, and its distribution department is also among the major film companies in North America. One of the most criticized members and after the establishment of Eleventh Release, starting from "Brokeback Mountain", the distribution strategy has not made any mistakes in the general direction, and even showed the foresight and awareness that many big film companies do not have. This is really commendable

"Spartan 300 Warriors" chose to be released on Friday, March 9th, and there is another work "Super Gift" that was released at the same time as Abigail Branslin. After receiving a lot of attention, Abigail Branslin has won countless attention with "Little Sunshine", and she has taken a lot of works. In "Super Gift", she is only a supporting role, but the producer However, she was promoted as a point of view, which obviously means that she can win more attention.

In addition, a week before "Spartan 300", "The Ride" starring John Travolta, David Fincher directed Jake Gyllenhaal and starring Robert Downey Jr. "Zodiac Killer" is also quite competitive at the box office

Under these circumstances, professional film critics have made predictions about the box office of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" in the first week, and everyone believes that the range of $35 million to $40 million will be the epic movie. The first weekend box office results are really not high for the investment of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors". It can be seen that film critics still lack confidence in the box office. On the one hand, it is because of the off-season in spring. On the one hand, it is also because of the decline of epic movies in recent years.

Since the end of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, Hollywood's epic movies have emerged one after another, "Troy", "King Arthur", "Celestial Kingdom", "Houhao"... One after another, but these works, without exception, all fall in On the box office data, some people even asserted: epic movies are dead!

Under such a situation, it is really hard to give people confidence in an epic film with a literary flavor like "Three Hundred Spartans". UU Reading believes that it will create a box office miracle, not to mention , this film has no box office appeal superstar, the entire cast is unknown, the only thing worth paying attention to is Michael Fassbender, who once had a relationship with Evan Bell in "Mysterious Skin" The cooperating actors have indeed attracted a lot of attention, but this is not enough to make people find the bright spots that make achievements at the box office

The only reason why film critics are willing to bet is Eleven Studios! Whether epic films can be brought back to life in the hands of Eleven Studios led by Evan Bell is also the focus of everyone's attention. Although "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" does not have Evan Bell's participation, it is well known that in Evan Bell -Under the influence of Bell, Eleven Studio's selection of works is unique and can always give surprises, so the reason why Eleven Studio is willing to make an epic movie like "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" is worth exploring, for sure It is this work that has something to look forward to, which naturally became the most eye-catching point of the movie when it was released.

So, "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" came, and it was officially released on March 9 in the mixed eyes of everyone's doubts and expectations.
