Chapter 732

In the living room of the villa of wave manor, the stantons gathered together, and everyone's eyes looked at Murphy.

"Seth, Jonah, James..."

Murphy looked at the three people on the left. "Where's your movie going?"

In November, the director and producer of all the comedies will be able to finish the post production in the fox studio. Now, the most of them are in the political studio

"The end of November." Murphy nodded and asked, "when you're done, can you get into your new job?"

These people know Murphy's plan, Seth Logan said without hesitation, "of course, no problem!"

Jonah hill and James Franco nodded, "we have the right schedule, too."

Murphy turned to the other side. Robert Downey, Jr. raised his hand and said, "I can get marvel to adjust his schedule. I'll be in your movie!"

Margot Robbie, sitting on a single sofa next to him, added, "I remember there was a female reporter in the focus team. You don't want to give this role to anyone else, do you?"

"And me." Gail gado also stood up, "I'll handle the specific affairs of the crew."

Murphy nodded. "I'll send you the full version of the script later. You'll see it first, and then you'll determine the role."

This film will be a collective action of Stanton party members! And different from the past, this is a group play. Everyone's role is very important.

This is a film without a leading role, and the real protagonist is the story.

after a brief exchange, the core creators of the crew were determined. Murphy served as the director and producer, and Gail gado continued to escort him as the producer, including four men and one woman, Robert Downey Jr., Seth Logan, Jonah hill, James Franco and Margot Robbie It happens to play the most important roles in the film, including Robbie Robinson, Mike redenzes, Martin Bain, Sasha pever and lawyer Mitchell gallobidean.

As for the specific role, it's still early, and Murphy is not in a hurry. They will discuss it after they have read the script.

After talking about this, Murphy asked Seth Logan, "has interview decided on the release time?"

"Twentieth Century Fox wants to put it in February." Seth Logan raised his glasses. "I talked to Carla Firth. It's delayed. It's probably going to be in October or November next year."

Thinking of the disturbance caused by the film, Murphy reminds us that "we can think of some ways in terms of publicity and marketing."

Much of the investment in the film came from Stanton studios, who certainly didn't want to make a loss.

However, it's not clear whether there were hackers there or some crazy guys in the United States who hyped themselves in the farce. Murphy would not tell Seth Logan about these things.

He thought for a moment and said, "let's say it's the last comedy of Stanton's gang."

"Er..." Seth Logan scratched the back of his head. "This Not quite. I'm already planning a new comedy with Jonah

In some ways, Seth logan was a relatively honest Stanton, while Jonah Hill understood what Murphy meant and said, "Seth, you big fool! It's just for you to talk and create some publicity topics. It's not for you to stop making comedy movies. "

"So." Seth Logan laughed. "It's a good idea, too."

Murphy's seemingly bad idea was quickly accepted by Seth Logan. Anyway, it's a common method in Hollywood and even in the world.

There are too many such examples.

, for example, once fans make complaints about it, Luc Besson: I only took ten films in my life. Quentin Tarantino: I've only made ten films in my life. James Cameron: Avatar 2 is about to start shooting! Redley Scott: if there's another alien in my movie, I'll cut my wrist and kill myself! Michael Bay: This is the last transformers I directed! Jack Chen: This is my last action movie. Hayao Miyazaki: I'm going to retire! Daniel Craig: no more James Bond

All these eye-catching slogans are so loud that none of them really do it.

In publicity and marketing, these are not things at all.

Some people even summed up the three lies of the world's film industry - James Cameron: I'll start shooting soon; Michael Bay: I won't make transformers sequels anymore; Hayao Miyazaki: I'll never go out again when I retire.

Some words, even from the mouth of the super director, can not be taken seriously.

Just as Murphy was actively planning new projects, "dark city" continued to be shown in North American cinemas. Although the daily box office output was already very low, and the increase in box office per week could not reach one million dollars, 20th Century Fox did not completely remove the film from North America when the film's North American market potential was about to run out File."The city of darkness" is also shown in large cities such as New York, Boston, Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles, and it will last at least until the end of January next year!

This is an agreement signed by 20th Century Fox and some cinemas. According to the agreement, from September to the end of January next year, 20th century fox will not participate in the distribution of all the box office revenue generated by "dark city".

If a film wants to maintain a super long release time in the cinema, it must pay a certain price.

In the 20th century, fox did not make these moves in order to make the box office of the film surpass that of "Avatar" in North America. People with a clear eye can see that, dragged down by the shooting case at the Chinese Grand Theater in Hollywood, "dark city" has no longer been able to compete with "Avatar" for the top spot in the box office of North America.

All of this is for the award season.

Now it's the end of October, the traditional North American awards season is coming, and all the films and companies interested in Oscar awards are already rubbing their hands.

Murphy and 20th century fox are no exception. Why did he choose to announce new projects when the award season is coming and not keep them as secret as the previous films? It directly tells the theme and content of the film. In some ways, it is also to make a difference in this award season.

It's no exaggeration to say that under the influence of a series of emergencies, Hollywood has been connected with Catholicism.

Although this situation exceeded Murphy's initial expectation and plan, it was undoubtedly very favorable for him. Especially after the news conference of the new project, there was basically a good voice from Hollywood circle to mainstream media.

Up to now, everyone can see that external factors have a great influence on the attribution of important awards.

In addition to these, the public relations between CAA and Murphy are also unfolding. The Los Angeles City Hall contacted Murphy when the box office of "dark city" exploded in the first week. Because Murphy is a real Los Angeles person, the Los Angeles City Hall wants to build a Murphy Stanton power station in order to express his contribution to the city and add a famous tourist attraction The film Memorial.

According to Murphy's request, CAA started negotiations with the Los Angeles City Hall. This kind of negotiation was not something that could be settled in a short time, so it was successfully delayed, and it has not been until now that a consensus has been basically reached.

Not surprisingly, the two sides will sign a formal agreement in December, the beginning of the award season, and officially announce it to the public, which can virtually add a lot of weight to Murphy's impact on the Oscars!

No matter Stanton studio, CAA and 20th century fox, they have launched the Oscar rush program, just waiting for the award season to start!

On November 1, Murphy didn't go out. She sat in front of her computer and landed on Netflix's website. As soon as she arrived at 9 a.m., she saw the latest play house of cards!

House of cards, as a network drama jointly launched by Netflix and Stanton studio, is different from the traditional American drama which is broadcast on TV and needs fans to "chase" and watch. Instead, it was put on the Internet with 13 episodes in a whole season on that day.

In the case of a lot of early publicity, house of cards quickly swept the Internet and became a magic play for many people!

Even some politicians are obsessed with the show.

"The house of cards tomorrow, please don't be a spoiler," said the black carbon in the White House

At the same time, he tweeted the official twitter of house of cards. The official tweet only forwarded without comment, which made the heroine Kate Mara excited and quickly tweeted: "this just happened! The president is going to watch our play

The popularity of house of cards also means that Stanton studio, which can get half of the revenue, has found a hen to lay golden eggs in the drama after game of Thrones!

However, the impact of Murphy's plot is not only as simple as the divine drama, but also challenges the production mode of "separation of production and broadcasting" in the traditional TV industry.

"House of cards" is not a simple artistic creation by the production organization, but based on the big data of the viewing behavior of 30 million users stored in the gold lettered signboard of Murphy Stanton and Netflix's website, and after analyzing the "search" and "collection" habits of netizens.

The broadcast of this play breaks the traditional mode of TV stations successively launching episodes in the past, and the episodes of a season are launched once a day by Netflix's website, which adapts to the audience's viewing habits in the Internet era, and the audience can participate in the production and promotion of TV programs through the Internet.

Profitable projects, of course, should continue to be produced.

After that, Murphy is ready to start preparing for her new film, while also keeping a close eye on the award season.
