Chapter 867： Are you starting to sell?

Thursday, November 13, at the icm offices in Los Angeles.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, through a brief meeting, the top management of icm formulated a packaging plan for Edward Norton.

"That's it, try to connect the itinerary as much as possible. For the rest, I will let the executive team responsible for the promotion of the ninth district keep in touch with your people."

Both parties have benefits in this matter. One wants to promote the artist while the movie screening is good, and the other wants to increase the popularity of the icm resources, so the chat atmosphere is still very pleasant, and it is basically considered in the appropriate category. Get the results you want within.

"Don't worry, Mr. Rust." The people at icm were actually quite surprised that District 9 had such an excellent reputation and achieved good results.

After talking about business, Lehman was about to leave, and a golden agent inside icm came over.

"I heard that Warner Bros. has restarted the third Batman, and wants to add the role of Catwoman to increase the lineup reserve, so... can we chat?"

"Warner himself was hesitant, and even considered a large number of related roles such as Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn. You know, Batman is easy to attract other characters. Isn't that the case with the Joker?"

The other party knew about this matter, and Layman was not surprised.

Since the Dark Knight soared into the sky last year and let Warners eat a very sweet copyright cake, the writing of the third script will definitely be put on the agenda, and it will be taken very seriously.

Nolan himself felt that the story could not be continued, but Warners was unwilling to let it go, so the two sides also reached an agreement that it would be good for Warners' screenwriting department to determine the shooting scope first.

And in addition to benefiting Batman, who is the most successful in shaping the Dark Knight?

Of course Heath Ledger's Joker.

Even if there is no over-marketing, such a classic role on the screen is still talked about by fans.

Let's just put it this way, Heath Ledger is now receiving films other than literary and artistic films. If the remuneration is for the male lead, it is very reasonable to register for 13 million to 15 million, and it is a price that meets the judging criteria.

Because after The Dark Knight, the Joker's peripherals are very popular. Apart from comic fans, the interpretation of the actor himself is of course a great bonus. You can know these data by paying attention to them.

Like at the end of 2007, Heath Ledger also called Lehman and said that he participated in the overture film of Justifiable Murder and cooperated with the actor Robert Deloney he liked very much. At that time, he took a salary of 13 million. The film tells the story of an old police detective and a new rookie detective involved in a serial murder case.

In other words, the third Batman movie, Warner Bros. also wants to launch related screen characters and harvest fans' wallets on the basis of supporting Batman.

Among them, Warner Bros. has also considered that the third film will continue to let the Joker and Bruce Wayne fight their wits and courage, but the second film has already been shaped more comprehensively, and Nolan himself thinks that this proposal will not work better... . In a word, the role scope is constantly being demolished and rebuilt, but it is particularly touching, especially the stakeholders.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

"Mr. Rust, the opinions of you and Nolan can very much affect the shooting of the project... I mean, the addition of Catwoman should be very suitable."

"Oh, what is the proper way?" Lyman pretended to be stupid. He vaguely seemed to know the other party's purpose.

"In the comics, Catwoman is a very popular member of dc's female characters. Warner Bros also made an adaptation at the time. It's a pity that the box office results of that film are not so good, but the influence is still there."

In Lyman's playful eyes, the other party said without shyness: "My Halle Berry is the star of that version of Catwoman, but I don't know if Mr. has seen it or not, her performance in it is not a hindrance. the elements of."

Lyman understood.

Speaking of which, since Catwoman's defeat in 2005, the popular artist fell directly from the front line, and in the same year she also won the Golden Raspberry Performance Award, so to say that she didn't hold back at all is of course her eyes are lying, but that movie The biggest pot is really not an actor, but Hollywood believes in the theory of achievement. If you are unlucky, it will of course be affected.

Anyway, since then, Halle Berry has had a hard time getting the chance of being a big heroine, and her agent also understands it, so after hearing about Warner's actions, I want to work hard for it, after all, Catwoman's screen appearance will leave the audience behind It's Halle Berry.

The agent said: "She went back to her hometown recently, how long will it take me to meet you in a few days?" Sleeping clothes in person, oh, no, persuade in person. Genius one second to remember 噺バ一Chinese m.x/8/1/z/w.c/o/m/

"Small question, I will propose it to Warner." But it's hard to say who to choose.

Although Halle Berry is beautiful and sexy, Lyman has no intention of maintaining any relationship with the other party. In addition to the suitability of casting, the market and fans must also be considered. Obviously, she is already in the past tense, plus The problem of age is extremely difficult to turn over, and there are too many disadvantages.

"Thank you so much."

"you are welcome."

......

Warners really struggled with the character delineation for the third installment.

Without him, there are too many characters who have entanglements with Bruce Wayne, and the story itself has to follow Nolan's system, which makes it even more difficult to choose.

In other words, they have jumped into the dark style pit, eager to reproduce the grand screening of the Dark Knight, and for this reason, those subjects with room for digging have been brought up by Warner to the category of adaptation.

So, ah, such a connotative theme of Watchmen is not the beginning, and it is far from the end.

But if you really want to add Catwoman, the original Anne Hathaway will be easier to pull up the box office than Halle Berry.

Don't worry about this matter. It is estimated that it will be next year when Warner Bros. polishes the script. The direction of the adaptation is not so easy to confirm.

Furthermore, Nolan will definitely intervene in the script adaptation. It also takes time for his brother Jonathan to communicate with Warner.

"Is the situation in the ninth district okay?" asked Lyman, who returned to the Firefly Building after the icm trip.

"The audience's response is still very enthusiastic, and the media evaluation has never come down." Ryan took out the edited film review entry and handed it to Lehman: "There are many emotional people in the industry, but if it weren't for our media and public relations expenses. How much improvement, I thought we paid a lot of money to make them so emotional."

Ryan's ridicule and those remarks that Ryman himself thought were too flattering, almost confirmed the reputation of the ninth district of the movie.

Such a posture also kept the movie's attendance rate good for the following week, even on weekdays, it was around 40%.

"Oh, by the way, what is the market estimate for this weekend's new film 007: Quantum of Solace?"

"It's more attractive than we thought, man." Ryan said seriously: "Judging from the recent publicity heat, many North American audiences are looking forward to it, plus the real scene and visual enjoyment of the ninth district, Nothing is as good as Fragrant Car Beauty's 007 Quantum Crisis with an investment of over 200 million, which is a new peak in production, and the proportion of actors and creatives is not high, so you can imagine how much thought was spent on the scene."

Similarly, this film still follows the distribution route of overseas first and then North America. It has accumulated 250 million box office in a week and a half, and its momentum in Europe has already been released. Of course, North American audiences are looking forward to the film’s screening. Some forecasting agencies directly It is pointed out that North America can break 60 million US dollars in the first week.
