Chapter 508： benefit

The success of "The Mist" is beneficial to several actors involved.

New York, the central square of Manhattan.

The already lively streets gathered more people than before, and unexpectedly, these people did not go to the nearby commercial brand stores, but gathered together, holding support cards in their hands.

A passerby glanced at it and found that the names of actors such as Nicolas Cage and Eva Green were written on it. Thoughtful.

Yes, the road show of the crew of "The Mist" is not over yet, but it is also coming to an end.

A line of main creators appeared one by one in the host's introduction.

Subsequently, the promotional content of the event was launched.

Among them, the one who feels the most different is Eva.

With the role of Carmody in "The Mist" being cursed by the audience, she feels as if she has got a new situation - as Cage said, playing a role that is not positive and being scolded by the audience, although it doesn't feel very good It's good, but it also means that the character is successfully created - a villain who is not scolded is not a good villain.

What's even more interesting is that the film critics gave her a high evaluation this time, and no longer say that she is optional. This is a good thing.

In the past, she was often ridiculed for not being able to perform. Even in big dramas like "Row to New York", as the heroine, she did not have a high sense of presence in the scene, and she was vaguely suppressed by the little girl played by Fanning - although the audience recognized the image very well, But the poisonous film critic did not give up teasing her.

But after "The Mist", it seemed that everything was reversed - the audience did not accept her role, but the critics praised her well.

Even in the interview, those media reporters recognized her modestly, and seemed to think that her performance was very good.

During the usual roadshows, the host also takes good care of her and always leads the topic to her side.

And all these made Eva very confused.

However, she seems to understand why those actors with good market appeal like to take on some roles with performance space, or simply go to the independent literary and art circle to polish their acting skills - an actor who occasionally sells well at the box office or is supported by someone, but wants to leave In the long run, it depends on your own business capabilities.

For people inside the industry, they can always distinguish who is the shooting star across the sky or the mainstay of the industry.

In other words, Eva has been improving compared to her former self.

From running the show, acting as a supporting role is difficult, and she has already successfully served as the heroine of a movie, but it is not the kind of eye-catching vase - vases come every year, and big heroines are rare, even the most profit-seeking Hollywood has its own Set of actor standards.

For example, most of the performance opportunities are based on strength, and traffic is based on traffic.

And after the routine roadshow ended, the group went to NBC to record the show.

Here, almost the entire production team is revolving around them, ignoring a few singers and dancers who are not welcome and have no popularity.

Well, it's very Hollywood.

The more popular it is, the more popular it is, and it will be respected by capital, even if it only appears as a cash cow.

Just like recently, after caa raised her contract condition level and became more favorable to Eva.

After all, as soon as "The Mist" was released, in addition to box office incentives and remuneration, various advertisements, commercial endorsements, and invitations to participate in activities came one after another, and others gave her money to make her soft-hearted. Brands that conform to their own image will only accept advertisements.

Moreover, after this time, her salary has been quoted at 8 million, and she must also participate in the North American box office share.

This figure is more difficult to see among second-rate male stars, but it represents the first-line threshold among female stars. The characteristics of Hollywood's contempt for women will never change. It's not as good as a male supporting actor who can see that the essence of Hollywood is still male power, and there is no so-called equality-many female stars have publicly complained about this kind of injustice, but what should Hollywood do, or how to do, even even Brokerage firms think so too.

After all, in a top game of power, more than 95% of those in power, such as directors, producers, photographers... are all men, how can we talk about equality?

However, the irony is that Hollywood is a place where feminist voices are quite loud. Just shouting and not changing is amazing.

As for the male protagonist Cage, he is also very meaningful, giving interviews and various high-end parties all day long.

Of course, compared to Eva, who had just tasted this kind of scenery, she would still be confused and frightened. Cage had long been used to it.

Among them, Samuel also has a relatively large income from the actor's career. This black movie star has participated in many works, but there are not many big box office sales.

With the success of "The Mist", the salary will naturally go up, and the producer who provided the script is also in constant contact with him.

Of course, some people are proud and others are disappointed. Will Smith, who has ended his promotion, has been very melancholy recently.

His agent, who was so eloquent before, boasted that the prospect of the project "Rivals in Love" would be a crime if he didn't accept it, and he also said that he would broaden his acting career.

The results of it?

This project was originally intended to be small and broad, and the biggest player in the entire crew was him. Although he made a profit, his role was not well recognized by the audience.

It completely consumed his market appeal.

why?

The lover he played in the play is a master at teaching men to pick up girls. Once the date is successful, he will be rewarded.

In this movie, there are some stereotyped depictions of women. Several characters in it are a little jealous and compared, and Smith seized this mentality and gave the client a sufficient plan for bait.

How should I put it, the front of the character is too frivolous, and I feel very disrespectful to women. If it weren't for some of the plot whitewashing in the back, this wave would be a wave of female fans unpopular.

After all, it's not good for your favorite idol to play an affectionate and frivolous role, especially now that Will Smith doesn't rely on his acting skills. His agency initially positioned him as a black idol template. The image is very positive, very humorous, and it is a weapon to capture fans, especially for those black audiences, but I am so satisfied with Will.

After all, his skin color is a plus.

But even so, after the box office of "The Rival of the People" was not satisfactory, some topics came up, which gave Will a headache.

She also needs to spend extra money on public relations to restore the public image she has created.

A combination of factors made Will Smith uneasy. The new agent, James Lasseter, was fired when he had been in contact with the agent for less than half a year.

Of course, he selectively forgot that "The Rival of All People" was more affirmed by him. After all, even a brokerage company can't force actors to choose plays, let alone an agent?

However, there is always a victim.
