Chapter 319： Punisher

For the "hired hero group" proposed by Kevin Feige, Dunn held a conservative attitude.

But this statement is really exciting!

According to the current schedule of Marvel Studios, "Spider-Man 2" will be released in 2002, "Daredevil" and "Ant-Man" will be released in 2003, "Spider-Man 3" and "Ghost Rider" will be released in 2004, and 2005. 'Iron Man', 'Ant-Man and the Wasp' hit theaters...

In February 2006, "Thor" was released; in May, "Daredevil 2" was released; in July, "The Avengers" roared!

If the "Hero for Hire Group" is really established, the first assembly can be completed in 2008, including Spider-Man, Ghost Rider, Black Widow, Punisher and a group of supporting heroes, and even Daredevil will not affect In the case of his personal stalwart image, he can also make a cameo appearance.

What a great idea this is?

2006, Avengers Assemble, 2008 Heroes Assemble, 2010, Avengers Assemble, 2012 Heroes Assemble...

Well, the big gathering every two years!

Marvel Studios will completely dominate the superhero movie market, and the "X-Men" series and DC Comics series will completely become tasteless.

Because of Dunn's appearance, there is no "Spider-Man Universe" in Hollywood in this life, so the emergence of "Heroes for Hire" led by Spider-Man may not be impossible!

"No hurry, there is still time, wait and see."

After the meeting was over, Dunn stretched and returned to the office, muttering to himself.

Unexpectedly, Kevin Feige also followed.

Dunn glanced at him in surprise, thinking he was struggling with the "hiring a group of heroes", and said with a smile: "Kevin, frankly speaking, your idea is very good! But at present, there are risks. Marvel The film industry can only have one cosmic system, and the core pillar must be the Avengers. If you rashly develop another alliance, it is likely to cause chaos.”

"I know that this requires the test of time and the market." Kevin Feige did not follow Dunn's gesture to sit down, but stood respectfully in front of his office with the attitude of a subordinate, " Boss, I want to say something else."

"Oh?" Tang En gave him a deep look and smiled, "Okay, let's talk about it."

Kevin Feige said slowly: "Marvel has too many superheroes, there are too many heroes, and they are not suitable for making movies. If you rely on the big screen alone, it will bring huge potential to Marvel Studios. waste."

Tang En smiled and said, "What do you mean... do you want to make it into a TV series?"

Kevin Feige said sternly: "It is not suitable for too dark content to appear on the big screen, but there is no need to worry about it on the TV station, and I heard... The company is recently making great efforts to support the starz TV network, and the breakthrough is the content field, right? ?"

"Kevin, I have to admit that your thinking is too lively!" Dunn laughed, in a good mood, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"I want to supervise a TV series!" Kevin Feige straightened his chest and looked directly into Dunn's eyes, "I know, my work experience is not enough, but in the process of making "Spider-Man", I have understood the entire process of film and television production.”

Dunn is a young man, he is only 23 years old this year.

But after being in this industry for a long time, he seems to have forgotten his age, and like many of his peers, he bears some age discrimination.

Kevin Feige is a great talent, but he's not yet 28 years old this year...

In his previous life, at the age of 27, Kevin Feige participated in the production of "X-Men" as a production assistant in 2000; in 2002, he participated in the production of "Spider-Man" as a production assistant. make.

By 2003, 30-year-old Kevin Feige had become a veritable executive producer. He had a full voice in the crew, and supervised the production of "X-Men 2", "Daredevil" and "Green". Giants" three films.

Since then, Kevin Feige has participated in the production of every Marvel movie, until 2007, when he was in charge of Marvel Studios at the "young age" of 34.

Then, he persuaded the bigwigs of Marvel Entertainment to go bankrupt to take out loans, pull investments, take risks independently, and produced "Iron Man", which was a huge success in one fell swoop.

Definitely a young and promising Hollywood producer!

It's just that his current experience is lacking. He has only participated in the production process of Dunn's "Spider-Man", and his qualifications and experience are slightly weak.

Tang En pondered for a while, not wanting to pour cold water on him, "What is the direction of the TV series?"

""Punisher"!"

Kevin Feige obviously thought about it for a long time and blurted out, "Strictly speaking, the Punisher is not a superhero. He is the elite of the Marine Corps. Because of the unfair treatment, his personality has changed greatly. Such special agent characteristics, There are many development angles and good prospects for adaptation. More importantly, he is a New Yorker and has two good friends, one is Spider-Man and the other is Daredevil!"

Tang En saw through his thoughts at once, shook his head and laughed, "Kevin, aren't you making up your mind?"

Kevin Feige scratched his head, "This... it's better for the Punisher to make a cameo appearance in the movies of "Spider-Man 2" and "Daredevil", at least in the form of Easter eggs, to make a wave for the Punisher publicity."

Tang En did not reply immediately, half-squinted his eyes, leaned back on the boss chair, crossed Erlang's legs, and tapped the desk rhythmically with the index finger of his right hand.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "You are an executive of Marvel Studios, and at the same time you are also involved in the production of "Spider-Man 2" and "Daredevil", whether it's an Easter egg or a cameo. , For specific matters, you go to discuss with the director."

Kevin Feige is overjoyed, such a statement is completely recognized, "Boss, thank you, I... I will definitely work hard..."

"Wait!" Dunn waved his hand and interrupted him, "You must first take on more responsibilities as an executive producer, assist Nina, and supervise the production of "Spider-Man 2". After the film is completed, I will decide whether to let you independently produce The Punisher based on Nina's feedback."

Kevin Feige didn't hesitate, and immediately said loudly: "Boss don't worry, I will definitely do my job well, assist Director Scott, and make "Spider-Man 2" smooth. !"

Seeing his confident statement, Tang En sighed, "Although "The Punisher" is a TV series, it is necessary to grasp the scale and have correct guiding values. The Punisher is a violent murderer, But we can't turn the TV series into a **** killing show, we need to show more shining points of human nature, and we need to maintain the image of Marvel Studios."

When Kevin Feige heard this, tears almost fell.

Dunn also said just now that he would decide whether to open the "Punisher" project based on Nina Jacobson's feedback. But this passage has already shown his attitude. After the filming of "Spider-Man 2", he will be given a chance to show himself.

Controlling a project alone, even if it's just a TV series, is a great test of personal ability.

It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get such an opportunity at the age of 28!

Christopher Nolan was able to get the opportunity to take charge of such a big production as "Daredevil" at the age of 30 because he had such an excellent, mature and complete reputation as "Memento" before.

In addition, Dunn will personally serve as the producer of the "Daredevil" project, and Nina Jacobson will assist in the production, which is double insurance.

Kevin Feige had almost no resume before this, and only worked in the "Spider-Man" crew for a period of time. Even if he will accumulate some experience in "Spider-Man 2", at such an age, he can master it alone. A project that is unprecedented.

"Boss, I promise you, I... I will definitely not betray your trust!"

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?

Dunn's trust made Kevin Feige, a young man, with hot and bright eyes.
