Chapter 712： Zombie World War

The time is approaching Thanksgiving. The first audition of the crew of "Fast and Furious 3" is over. Jaina-All passed smoothly, and the crew is notified that she does not need to participate in the second audition and will directly come to the crew to participate in the final audition with makeup in mid-December. OK.

Jaina-Quan took advantage of the new season of "Intern Gray" and will not be filming for the time being. She went back to Korea and actively contacted female artists with outstanding appearances through her previous agency.

However, she solemnly told the former brokerage company that they must not be overhauled and be as pure as possible. Even if they have used a knife, they are of the type of minor repairs like hers.

After Jessica Felton returned to Los Angeles from Europe, Ronan asked the crew to sign a safety agreement with the main actors to restrict them from engaging in dangerous activities such as drag racing during the crew.

Even if every actor has accident insurance, if there is an accident, the crew will still have considerable trouble, and it is not impossible to be investigated by the actors' union.

Ronan is also taking precautions.

Through his contact with Heath Ledger, Ronan understood one thing. Some things can’t be done if he wants to. In the ecological environment of this country and Hollywood, even if he interferes with other people’s Freedom of life is still a thankless thing.

I work and you pay, what do you do in my spare time?

This is very common among Hollywood stars.

There are some things, it is enough to do it once, Ronan will not be foolish to do it a second time.

Therefore, it is enough to ensure that the actors do not have accidents while working for Shahai Entertainment.

Ronan is just a producer and film company owner, not a nanny.

Besides, Hollywood stars have a million ways to die, do they have to stare at them for 24 hours?

This safety agreement basically guarantees that the actors will not have major safety issues during their work.

In my spare time, the crew can't control it either.

This week, George Romero’s "Land of the Living Dead" has also finalized actors, and the crew will travel to Canada after Thanksgiving to begin preparations for a series of filming.

George Romero reopened his zombie road.

Due to the success of "Dawn of the Living Dead", Hollywood's traditional zombie films have a tendency to rise again. Twentieth Century Fox bought a zombie-themed script called "28 Weeks of Surprise"; Robert, who just finished the production of "Sin City" -Rodriguez is also preparing to shoot his own zombies and movies; Warner Bros. has purchased the remake of "Zombie Out of the Cage".

Robert Lee specifically found Ronan's office because of the zombie theme.

"Looking at the current trend, zombie movies will become a trend in the future." Robert Lee said: "Although we have obtained the copyright of "The Walking Dead", George Romero is also shooting new zombie movies, but it is not an increase. The copyright reserve?"

Robert Lee has bought copyrights everywhere in the past few years. With the accumulation of experience, his vision has gradually become sharper.

The original theme of zombies, which has been declining, will indeed become an important force in the film and television market in the future. Ronan is very aware of this and asked: "Did you find something? Have a good work recommendation?"

Robert-Lee took out a few pages of copy paper and handed it to Ronan. Ronan took it over and looked at it. It was a little messy handwriting, obviously a copy of the manuscript.

"This is..." Ronan took a quick glance.

Robert-Lee explained: "Don't worry, this is with the author's permission, as long as it is not spread."

Ronan nodded slowly, and continued to look at a few pages of copy paper.

"When we promoted the movie, we used the "Zombie Survival Manual"." Robert Lee briefly introduced: "The author of the "Zombie Survival Manual" is Max Brooks, the director of "Robin Hood Crazy" and "Vampire Crazy" The son of Mel Brooks, I just gave you the manuscript that Max Brooks just started to create."

He thought about it, and then said: "I met Max Brooks at a party a few days ago. Because I have been in charge of the company's copyright business, he took the initiative to find me and chatted with me about his new work. I took a look. , I find it interesting."

Ronan quickly browsed, collected the manuscript and returned it to Robert Lee, saying, "It's really interesting."

These few pages are written in the framework of the novel. Zombie subjects have encountered the greatest extinction crisis for human beings. The zombie epidemic has spread globally. As the male protagonist, the United Nations investigator went to the source of the virus to find a solution to the crisis.

Looking back, Ronan felt that this setting was a bit familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Reminiscent of Max Brooks as the son of a Hollywood director, it is estimated that he has been adapted into a movie.

Ronan asked, "Just started creating?"

Robert-Lee replied: "I got the setting and the framework, and only the beginning of the official content was written. Max Brooks said that he would continue to modify it, so I didn't want it."

Ronan nodded slowly, and then asked: "Has Max Brooks confirmed the name of the work?"

"I'm sure." Robert-Lee replied: "I heard him mention that it was called ".z"."

The reaction in Ronan's mind is the Chinese translation of "World War Zombie"?

No, it should be called "Zombie World War", or "Zombie World War"!

Which movie did Brad Pitt play? The one that runs faster than rabbits! It seems to have been clamoring for a sequel, waiting for Brad Pitt's schedule.

Ronan wanted to remember the starting point. It is said that Brad Pitt specially invited David Fincher as the director to shoot the sequel.

In this way, the previous films have not failed at least.

Hollywood studios are pursuing profits when making films. A film cannot bring profits and will never start a sequel.

Thinking of this, Ronan said to Robert Lee: "You talk to Max Brooks. It's best to get the right to adapt the novel before it goes public."

Robert Lee responded: "Okay."

He didn't wait much, and soon left Ronan's office.

Robert Lee just left, Ronan received a call from David Fincher. He and Lindsay Bill were both optimistic about an actress, the Canadian actress Rachel McAdams, and the audition effect was also good. Not bad.

Ronan thought a little, and felt that this candidate was also good, and gave a positive reply.

Rachel McAdams was helpless in Hollywood. He had been to Hollywood a few years before he became famous, and finally returned to Canada as a loser. He returned a few years later and achieved success.

In most cases, it is not easy for such a helpless actress to be mixed in Hollywood.

Carefully study the information of Hollywood's newly-known stars in recent years, and it is not difficult to find that many people are either graduated from a professional film and television school or have inextricable connections with this circle.

To be precise, the second generation of stars and the second generation around the Hollywood industry, the proportion of Hollywood's new emerging actors is increasing year by year.

They naturally have various advantages, and they can be supported by all aspects involved in the network of contacts. This road is much smoother than ordinary people.

Of course, helpless people also have the opportunity, and the best ladder to climb is clearly there.

Catch it, and become famous in one fell swoop, and the investment will be rewarded.

Some things about Rachel McAdams are not secret in Hollywood circles, and there are even rumors among the entertainment media.

Rachel McAdams has a good public image to fans and the media, fresh and full of sunshine, like the goddess of the school, but she has a coquettish side in secret, which is very in line with the personality of the heroine.

The front is like a goddess, but behind...

Sweet and **** Rachel McAdams’ acting skills are relatively good, maybe not as good as Natalie Portman, but much better than Jessica Alba.

Originally, Marvel Entertainment and Kevin Fitch wanted to invite Rachel McAdams to play the role of Pepper in "Iron Man", but Rachel McAdams refused because of a comic superhero movie.

Unexpectedly, she went back to audition for "girl".

Maybe this role can help her win the prize.

Many actors will face this choice. Should they be awarded first or commercial first?

Once Rachel McAdams made a faint move on Marvel. In the early years, he refused the more weighty pepper. Later, the development did not go well. Seeing the popularity of the Marvel series of movies, it took a lot of effort and got the role and Christine Palmer with a smaller portion.

According to the news from Lindsay Bill, Rachel McAdams is willing to get only half a million US dollars in order to get the heroine of "girl".

This is a very smart actress, and after working with Ronan many times, it is obvious that the film is going for the awards season.

In order to win prizes, many actors often take the initiative to lower their prices when they choose low-cost movies. UU reading www.uukanshu. cm

Rachel McAdams was willing to take the initiative to lower the pay. Of course, the crew had no reason to refuse. The two sides soon began formal negotiations.

David Fincher’s filming rhythm is very slow. It took more than half a year from the early planning to the preliminary preparations, but it will also take several months to enter the shooting stage.

This is also his consistent style. David Fincher is a typical example of slow work and meticulous work. He is not a prolific director, and usually only a film will come out in about four years.

Think about Spielberg. At the peak of his creation, he had done two films a year.

Thanksgiving Day is approaching, and the North American film market is beginning to become very crowded. After large-scale publicity, "Museum Wonderful Night" will also be opened in North America. I look forward to bringing the whole family a happy holiday to the audience.

In addition, Warner Bros’ epic "Alexander the Great", Universal Pictures’ "BJ Single Diary 2", and Miramax’s "Cow Class Spring" purchased at the Toronto Film Festival are also sharpening their swords. , Prepare the big cake for the risky Thanksgiving holiday schedule.
