After solving the most important thing of "Breaking Dawn", Guy Oserry couldn't help but relax. He marked the matters to be changed on the contract and asked the secretary to change it. He could sign the contract in a while. Then he looked up at Lee Junyi and asked, "Do you know the new director of "Breaking Dawn"?"
"You guys are all making such a big fuss, how could I not know?" Li Junyi rolled her eyes. After all, Dingfeng Entertainment lacked the foundation of a large company and was still a little impetuous in dealing with things.
Although Dingfeng Entertainment still reflects the potential of a large company in terms of pay and box office dividends and knows how to make choices, Dingfeng Entertainment's handling of the director is still a bit hasty.
Long before the release of "The Lunar Eclipse", Dingfeng Entertainment began filming "Breaking Dawn". Before David Slade's works had been judged by the public, Dingfeng Entertainment announced that "Breaking Dawn" would launch a new director, and directly excluded David Slade. Dingfeng Entertainment planned to use four directors in the "Twilight" series of four movies. Since the style and quality were already different, we should simply seek new things to the end. This made the media discuss it for a while.
When Tingfeng Entertainment announced the director's candidate for "Dawn", it caused heated discussion. In March, Tingfeng Entertainment began to look for directors. The list included Sophia Coppola, the daughter of Francis Ford Coppola, who once directed "Lost Tokyo" and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director; Gas Van Sant, his representative work "Milke", added Sean Penn's second Oscar for Best Actor; Bill Conton, his representative work "Dream Chasing Girl", won Jennifer Hudson for Best Supporting Actress.
It can be said that these three directors are famous directors, which shows that Tingfeng Entertainment has a very high vision now. Once this list comes out, the media mocked Tingfeng Entertainment for a wishful thinking. It is not difficult to get a famous director in a youth idol movie. From this detail, we can see that Tingfeng Entertainment does have a sense of impetuousness as a nouveau riche. It is indeed a difficult task to find a top famous director in the "Twilight City" series to direct the "Twilight City" series. But the fact is that Tingfeng Entertainment not only found a director, but also one of the directors on the list, Bill Conton.
Speaking of Bill Conton, he is not a very high-profile director. He has been involved in the film industry for more than 20 years, and his works are only a few. In addition to the "Dream Girl" who won eight Oscars and finally won the Best Supporting Actress Award, he adapted the script of "Chicago" in 2003, which is currently the most well-known movie. This movie adapted from the musical of the same name and won six Oscars, including the Best Picture. It can be said that Bill Conton is a director with personality but strength that cannot be ignored. He confirmed that he will direct "Dawn", which successfully triggered media hot topics. This news has been announced for nearly a month, and media will come out to discuss it from time to time: Is Bill Conton's mind watered?
All this doubts became a new round of discussion after the release of "Luminous Eclipse". Through "Luminous Eclipse", David Sred proved that the "Twilight" series can still be filmed well, and his directorial ability has also been affirmed. How will Bill Condon direct "Breaking Dawn", whether the quality of the film can surpass the "Luminous Eclipse" and whether there will be a new miracle at the box office.
"Don't say that there is a big reason why Condon directed "Dawn" is because of me?" Li Junyi joked, and after saying that, he felt a little funny: because he was too narcissistic, he burst into laughter.
Unexpectedly, Guy Oserry did not smile with Lee Junyi, nor did he show any sign of refutation. Instead, he kept looking at Lee Junyi with a meaningful smile, which made Lee Junyi's smile gradually solidify, "Is it true?"
Guy Osher nodded and confirmed. "You also know that our script is like that. To be good at it, we can only look at the director's ability, but also watch the actors. Conton was willing to consider it because of your relationship. After that, he struggled for a long time and finally made a decision." Speaking of this, Guy Osher leaned forward slightly, as if there was a secret to tell Lee Junyi. He lowered his voice and said, "Before making the decision, he had a meeting with Nolan." It seems that Christopher Nolan, who was keen on Lee Junyi, who had a sincere appreciation for Lee Junyi.
When he heard Guy Oseri say this, Lee Junyi smiled and pointed to his shoulder, "Ya Li is so big. When I meet Condon, I should think carefully about how to please this new director." Guy Oseri made him laugh at the opposite side.
Although I found it strange that David Sred had done well enough in the "Lumber Eclipse", the director who wanted to change "Dawn" was decided before the "Lumber Eclipse" was released. What kind of work Bill Condon would shoot is also worth looking forward to. For Lee Junyi, changing the new director and re-adapting to the shooting rhythm is no longer a big problem, and he is really curious about the results of the four works of "Twilight" in four colors.
After everyone agreed on the contract, Lee Junyi and the main actors of the movie gathered in the conference room. As usual, they still had to meet the director and determine the next shooting schedule. Dingfeng Entertainment said as early as the end of last year that it would probably start shooting "Dawn" in summer or autumn. The "Harry Potter" series lasted for a long decade, and there were many reasons. The most important one was that the protagonists also grew up slowly in the original work, and the movie had this time to slowly brew. But in "Twilight", Edward is a vampire who will never grow up,
It was only two years since Isabella foresaw Edward to transforming into a vampire, so the movie could not be extended. The filming must be completed when the state of the main actors is basically consistent, so that the film can be maintained at the maximum authenticity of the movie. Of course, struck while the iron is hot and making a fortune is also one of the ideas of Tsukuba Entertainment. Therefore, not to mention the shooting of the "Crescent Moon" and "Moon Eclipse" are very closely linked. Before the "Moon Eclipse" was released, "Dawn" was put on the shooting schedule. It is not surprising that the final decision results are directly announced.
Lee Jun-yi was talking in a low voice with Taylor Lotner about the signing process just now. It seems that Taylor Lotner, whose popularity has soared, is also very well treated, with a pay of $7.5 million and a box office dividend of 3%. It can be seen that Jacob, a werewolf character, is also highly valued.
At this time, the door of the conference room opened, and Guy Osherey walked into the conference room with a man. Needless to say, it was Bill Conton.
Bill Conton is a forty-five-year-old young man. Although he is already middle-aged, he has a baby face, less than 1.7 meters tall, brown black square glasses, and a simple and friendly smile on his lips, which makes him feel more friendly. From his appearance alone, he is a person who is easy to get along with.
Bill Condon waved at everyone like a child, and said with a smile, "Hello everyone, I am Bill Condon, I will work with everyone in the next few months. I hope everyone will work happily." The words actually had nothing to say, they were all polite words, but Bill Condon had a big naughty smile on his face, and his tone of speaking was like an old child, which made people laugh, and everyone in the conference room immediately smiled.
"If nothing unexpected happens, 'Dawn' will start shooting in the first week of August," Bill Conton originally asked Guy Oseri to introduce it, but Guy Oseri sat down and signaled to let Bill Conton come. Obviously, it was to make everyone more familiar with the new director. Bill Conton did not refuse and said directly, "We will shoot in New Orleans first. In about a week, we will go to Esme, Brazil to shoot."
This time, the "Dawn" filming was also flying everywhere, including New Orleans and Baton Rouge in the United States. Baton Rouge is a big city more than 100 kilometers away from New Orleans, the capital of Louisiana, and is close to the Mississippi River. Foreign shootings include Vancouver and Brazil in Canada, and they will definitely be running around again at that time.
"It is worth mentioning here that 'Dawn' will be divided into two screenings, but they will still be filmed together during shooting. That is to say, we will shoot the weight of two movies at once to ensure the consistency of the shooting. As for the editing, it is a matter of the later stage." Bill Condon's speech was still very concise and clear, without much nonsense, and he directly pointed out the focus of the conversation.
"Harry Potter and the Holy Grail of Death" is divided into two episodes, which is a compliment and criticism. On the one hand, it is because there is too much content to explain in the finale, and one movie really cannot accommodate it. On the other hand, it is naturally the distribution company Warner Bros., which is going to make a big profit on this money tree. It is the best idea to divide the two episodes into two episodes.
Obviously, "Breaking Dawn" has also been imitated, but if you want to look at the reason carefully, it is no different from the finale of "Harry Potter", and it is nothing more than the above two reasons. For actors like Lee Jun-yi, there is not much difference. They are also filming movies, but the filming content is more, and the cycle will be longer, that's all.
Lee Junyi looked at the expected shooting time of "Breaking Dawn". It will be taken from August to the end of October. If the shooting progress is wrong, it may be until the end of November. After all, it will take a lot of time to shoot two movies this time.
Seeing this itinerary, Li Junyi's first thought was, what should SBS's golden autumn plan be done? Maybe it will turn into a severe winter plan. However, Lin Xiyuan told SBS that Li Junyi's itinerary was uncertain, and it would not take time until October and November, so there may not be any conflicts, it just needs Lin Xiyuan and SBS to adjust.
The second thought that appeared in Lee Junyi's mind was that filming started in August, would the album be released in advance?
