Chapter 528： Representative of the American Spirit

"Hello everyone, viewers, this is a live news program from the TV station, I am..."

In the TV screen, a reporter holding a logo microphone is talking in front of the set, and there are at least dozens of reporters behind him, "This is the studio area of ​​Universal Studios. We have the exact news. Marvel Comics is the latest. The filming of "Captain America" ​​has been filmed here for three days. According to insiders, Ryan Jenkins, who is beloved by fans, played the role of Steve Rogers..."

Suddenly, the picture turned to the distance, two black cars drove over one after another, and the reporter's voice sounded at the same time, "It is Ryan's car that came over..."

"Mr. Jenkins, how do you feel about playing Steve Rogers?"

Then, countless noisy questions sounded from the TV. Watermark advertising testWatermark advertising test

"Ryan, Steve Rogers is the best symbol of the American spirit. You also have this trait in your body. Isn't that why you decided to play this role?"

"The U.S. needs heroes now, and it needs heroes like Captain America. When will this movie be released?"

"I heard that Miss Nicole Kidman will play Peggy Carter, are you all coming together again?"

"Ryan..."

"Mr. Jenkins..."

Although the reporter was surrounded by the two cars, the windows were never lowered. With the assistance of the studio staff, the car slowly drove into the studio area, and finally disappeared in the TV screen.

"Ryan did not give an interview, but we believe that he will give us the greatest Steve Rogers ever."

After a long conversation from the reporter, the picture was transferred to the studio, and the two guests analyzed it.

"Although we have had the most difficult moments, America desperately needs heroes now."

"Yes. Our movies can't be commercial only for the sake of business. In addition to the heroes who have been sticking to Manhattan in reality, the people also need spiritual encouragement. We need a big screen that fits this era and represents the United States. Spiritual hero."

"Captain America, born at a time of national crisis, is the best candidate. Marvel Comics made the smartest choice."

"They are smarter. They have found the best representatives of American culture and American spirit today to star in this movie. Think about it. Who is more suitable to play Captain America than Ryan?"

"We have reason to expect this movie. It will re-awaken the greatest American spirit of that era and help us tide over the difficulties again..."

In the media these days, you can see the news of Captain America everywhere. Irene Kruger is a fan of comics himself, and he is very interested in bringing such a heavyweight comic to the big screen.

Frankly speaking, although the TV station's words are a bit exaggerated, he also believes that there is no more suitable candidate for Captain America than Ryan in all of Hollywood.

Turn off the TV, and Ilan Kruger, who lives in New Orleans, walks to the desk. Turned on the computer and wanted to find more information about Ryan and Steve Rogers from the Internet.

I typed ‘Captain America’ in the Google search bar, and tapped the search button lightly, and a large number of organized related news appeared on the display screen.

There is the origin of the birth of Captain America. There is also a list of some cast and crew members, and even an official website...

Although not a media practitioner, Irene Kruger also knows that the producer has spent considerable effort on publicity, and the film has just started shooting.

The promotion of a movie is a long and tedious process. What Ryan and Marvel want to create is a huge series. It can be said that they racked their brains in terms of promotion and set a large budget.

The Internet, TV, print media, and every surprise movie released are their propaganda positions.

With the launch of "Captain America", the previously tepid publicity work has also officially started to warm up the market in advance.

The film is deeply affected by the social environment in which it is located. The impact of 9/11 will not change significantly within two to three years. The work of a patriotism and American spirit such as "Captain America" ​​will definitely be welcomed.

During this period, even the "Patriot Act" could be passed, and the influence of Captain America, which represents traditional American values, can be imagined.

In the Universal Studios studio, Ryan is wearing Captain America’s iconic uniform, holding a shield, and knocking, kicking, and shielding an enemy, bringing down a member of the Hydra armed to his teeth. .

However, if you take a closer look, you can tell that the stuntmen are upside down or fly out before his fists and shields reach his body.

"Cut!"

David Fincher's voice sounded, "Ryan..."

Raising his head, Ryan took off his helmet and walked towards the camera. It was not easy to invite David Fincher. Although the other party agreed to be the director, he stated that he would only direct the first part.

"Is there any problem?" Ryan came to behind the camera.

"I think your power should be increased." David Fincher motioned to the cameraman to replay the footage just taken, and clicked on a few fighting shots. "All tricks are removed, and the action is simpler and more direct. "

"I thought it was simple and straightforward enough now."

After joking, Ryan shouted to the roaring commando on standby, "Tiger, come here."

The Roaring Commando is definitely a large collection of various races, and Tiger Chen played the Asian member.

Ryan’s preliminary action training was completed under the guidance of Tiger Chen. With the success of several action films and Ryan’s support, he completely established himself in Hollywood and served as the action director of this film. one.

The action director gathered several action directors together and discussed how to improve the fighting scenes. Ryan and David Fincher chatted a few more words and returned to their rest area.

"Hi, John." Ryan greeted a thin actor sitting here.

"Hello, Ryan." The other person stood up and shook hands with him. "I didn't expect me to be your stand-in."

"Sit, you are welcome."

After the other party sat down again, Ryan took off the shield attached to his back and handed it to his assistant, "We should communicate and communicate more in order to strengthen understanding."

The actor named John James nodded and asked about Ryan's behavior habits very professionally.

Although he does not have the unusually developed muscles of the previous life, Ryan is also a standard sportsman. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as strong. In the first quarter of the film, he will play a role at most. For a little one hundred and thirty pounds, using traditional make-up techniques is obviously not enough.

At the beginning, the special effects team wanted to use some of the special shooting techniques used in "The Lord of the Rings", such as dislocation and looking up shooting, using some props and environments to cover key parts, but the film involved too many shots in these aspects. , It is easy to wear help.

So the film crew found him a stand-in for him from the London Shakespeare Company, that is, Mr. John James. Although the two are very different in size, at first glance, the other looks like a reduced version of him.

In particular, this drama actor has a specialty, he is extremely good at imitating others.

In fact, before the filming started, Surprise Pictures contacted Industrial Magic Light. The special effects company deliberately found two very different characters, one thin and one very strong. They filmed some standing, sitting and walking movements, and then passed them through. After the series of special effects were processed, a completely feasible conclusion was reached, and it also provided the crew with statistical data on the difficulty and time of production.

According to the scheduled plan, the filming started to focus on the scenes in the studio, because the other actors have not yet been in place, most of which are the plots of Steve Rogers and the Roaring Commando.

Here, Ryan also met old acquaintances. Ryan Gosling passed the audition and got the role of James Barnes, which is the future Winter Soldier.

He can be regarded as the person who sang for Ryan at the beginning, and the development is the least smooth. Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera have become a new generation of young queens, and Justin Dingblake is also a certain Important members of the idol team, even Jessica Simpson has started her own business.

Only Ryan Gosling gave up singing and dropped out of school to become a pure actor after leaving the Mickey Mouse club. Unfortunately, he has not really become famous until now.

"Don't worry, I have seen some of your roles."

In other words, it is also a past acquaintance. When chatting outside of filming, Ryan will also say a few words of encouragement, "Thomas, you will soon have your own moment."

For Ryan, except for the action scenes, such a superhero movie is easy to control, and David Fincher's requirements for acting skills are not too strict, although the action scenes will inevitably be unexpected, but After the running-in period of booting , the overall progress is fairly smooth.

Besides, this is not a movie going for acting and awards. Ryan will not ask for hardships. The difficult action scenes are naturally completed by professional stunt doubles.

"For this movie, we must first ensure the spirit represented by Captain America."

When the old man Stan Lee came to visit the class, he discussed the plot of the movie with Ryan and David Fincher, "The fighting and special effects are all for this spirit."

"What America needs most now is the spirit represented by Captain America." Ryan agreed with the old man. "As long as this aspect is prominent enough, coupled with excellent special effects and fighting, the box office of the movie is definitely not a problem."

"Why do I always feel that you are being pulled on a boat heading for the wrong road?" Of course, David Fincher knows that the first factor in such a movie is business, and catering to the market is the prerequisite. "Ryan, if I shoot in the future, A literary and artistic film, and you need an excellent actor like you, you..."

"No problem." Ryan nodded, not waiting for David Finch to be happy, and deliberately added, "As long as you are willing to pay me the full amount." ()
