Yang Jian thought about choosing an action movie for Drew Barrymore to lay the foundation for her to star in "Charlie's Angels" in the future.
But he thought about it and couldn't find a suitable action movie with a female protagonist. Some movies that will be popular in the future may not be popular in this era. It is difficult for movies with female protagonists in this era to get high box office without a market, and the chance of being popular is not high.
Small.
Moreover, if a movie like "Kill Bill" is made, Barrymore's figure is not suitable for playing the heroine, but Cameron Diaz can be.
The risk of transformation is too great, so let's film the genre that Barrymore is good at. She is very good at acting in romantic comedies, and her age doesn't feel out of place when she plays a college student.
Yang Jian explained with a smile: "We are going to take a fashion route in this movie. The heroine constantly changes into different clothes, as fashionable as possible. I want to choose the color you like, pink, which can be seen everywhere in the heroine's home."
Luxury shopping bags, even the pet dog is wearing famous brands.”
"In addition, this is not a simple chick movie. The core of the story is about strong women, self-awareness, eliminating stereotypes, etc. The plot will also touch on some sensitive topics such as sexual harassment in the workplace, cheating, etc. that everyone is concerned about today. I think this movie
The movie is bound to be a hit, and we can consider making a sequel in the future."
The four girls listened to Yang Jian's explanation and thought he was so awesome. A basketball star talked about movie scripts very clearly. He was more professional than most screenwriters and directors. He even thought about the popular elements of the movie.
They all felt that there was no other person on earth who could achieve the level of Yang Jian.
Cameron asked curiously: "How did you come up with such a story? It has nothing to do with your life, right?"
"Yes, how did you come up with the story about the lawsuit?" Naomi was also curious and had never heard Yang Jian say it before.
"This is an adaptation of a true incident at Harvard University." Yang Jian said lazily.
"Huh? There are hot girls like this at Harvard?" Barrymore's eyes widened.
"Of course, Harvard is not full of nerds. Am I not the best example?" Yang Jian gave an irrefutable example.
He broke the stereotypes that Europeans and Americans have about Chinese people. Chinese people can become the number one player in the NBA. Why can't hot girls be admitted to Harvard Law School and fight lawsuits?
"The story of Harvard is completely different from the story of the script. I just used such a gimmicky concept. I have a good memory and I remember some gossip after hearing it in school. I don't know the beauty and makeup skills, so I asked Drake
Complete the content with Diane." Yang Jian said casually.
Barrymore asked: "What was the original story like?"
"A beautiful girl from the law school fell in love with a handsome guy from the medical school. One day, the handsome guy saved a patient from a sudden illness, but he was sued by the patient afterwards because the patient had sequelae and the handsome guy was not qualified to practice medicine. The beautiful girl worked hard to become stronger.
I helped my boyfriend fight a lawsuit and finally won."
Naomi sighed: "I think this story seems more attractive."
Yang Jian shook his head and said with a smile: "No, if it is shot like this, it will not be a comedy and it will not win the box office. Moreover, the story is too long, so it is obviously more suitable to make a TV series."
You can't go to Harvard University to verify these things. Yang Jian said that there is a prototype in the school, so who would deliberately check it? There is no way that a beautiful girl from Harvard Law School will pop up and say "I am this person."
The truth is of course that Yang Jian plagiarized it. He had seen this comedy in his previous life and had an amazing memory and almost remembered all the content.
The original movie was released in July 2001, co-starring Reese Witherspoon, Luke Wilson, and Selma Blair. Reese was nominated for the 59th Golden Globe Award for Best Musical and Comedy Film.
She won the Actress Award and became famous in one fell swoop.
The movie's box office was astonishing, with an investment of US$18 million and a global box office of US$124 million. With this film, Reese became recognized as "America's Sweetheart". In fact, she has an average appearance and is only 156cm tall.
In a parallel world, Reese made a guest appearance in "Friends", playing Rachel's sister Jill Green. She has not made a guest appearance yet, and in reality her relationship with Jennifer Aniston is very ordinary. Yang Jian copied her success
Masterpieces don’t feel guilty.
Both Barrymore and Reese have sweet temperaments, so they are very suitable for this movie. They are also about the same age. If filming starts this year, Barrymore will be younger and more photogenic.
In the afternoon, Drake and his girlfriend Diane Kruger came to the villa and brought a detailed script. After reading it, Barrymore liked the story even more and immediately decided to shoot this next part.
As long as the box office once again exceeds 100 million after the movie is released, Barrymore's status as a celebrity will basically be secure and he can hit the front line in the future.
The box office sales of her recent movies have all exceeded 100 million, and they have exceeded 100 million in North America, and are heading towards 200 million globally. If this continues, she will become one of the female stars with the highest box office appeal in the world.
Huaer Pictures is very busy producing multiple movies a year. Barrymore is not solely responsible for it, just let others take over. In addition to Drake, Jon Favreau can also be a producer and has experience.
With Zack Snyder, this new director was also drawn into the circle by Yang Jian and became one of his own.
Just because Zach didn’t do a good job in DC movies in the parallel world doesn’t mean he’s incompetent. The key is that someone has to keep an eye on him and not let him mess around with the content, and don’t give him too much power. His shooting style is praised by a large group of people.
His fans are even called "Zaslin"...
Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire also came to Seattle, and they have been fine recently.
The success of "Titanic" gave Leonardo countless glory, but it also gave him the baggage of being an idol. His salary has soared and it is difficult for him to take on new movies. There are not many crew members to hire him, so someone is looking for him.
He doesn't like the script yet.
This movie made Leonardo recognized by people anytime and anywhere. The media rated him as the most beautiful actor in the world, and the public only cared about his gossip and appearance. As for his own dedication and efforts, he was completely ignored.
neglect.
From the dedicated performances to the public only pursuing appearance and neglecting the actor's own quality, to the trouble caused by the media's gossip and gossip. This series of environmental changes hit the growing Leonardo hard, breaking his original strength and idol
A balanced state of both.
"I hope people will remember me because of my work, not because I have become a glamor star of the year." Leonardo came and asked Yang Jian: "Brother, do you have any other movies like "Out of Control"?
A similar script? If I write another drama with great acting skills, maybe people’s minds will change.”
The two have known each other for a long time, and Leonardo would not be polite to him.
Yang Jian laughed and said, "That's really not true. Do I think I am a god? I have too many things to do this year and I have written a lot of songs."
"When you write the script again, give me priority. You know I will definitely be able to perform well." Leonardo said with a smile.
He will not lose his love for acting. Although it took him 10 years to recover from the experience of "Titanic" and find his former self.
In the parallel world, Leonardo was silent for more than two years before he started working again and filmed "The Beach". Then he received a Razzie nomination for Best Actor for this film, which was a standard bad movie.
Yang Jian would help Leonardo avoid this pit, but he couldn't figure out how Leonardo could fall in love with that bad script. The story had no highlights, and it wasn't a big production. Maybe the crew gave him too much money.
Now Leonardo's situation is slightly better, because he starred in "The Big Brother". The film's global box office reached 200 million US dollars, and his acting skills were unanimously praised.
There are many people who believe that Leonardo is a talented actor, rather than just focusing on his appearance and thinking that he is an idol actor.
Leonardo has also been affected by the butterfly effect in his life and is currently single.
In the parallel world, he met Czech supermodel Eva Herzgova in 1998 because of his appearance in "The Man in the Iron Mask". This was Leonardo's first "Victoria's Secret" model girlfriend, and she became his future girlfriend.
Criteria for choosing a girlfriend.
Eva is recognized as one of the sexiest women in the world in the 1990s. She and Leonardo met at the premiere party of the movie "The Man in the Iron Mask". At the time, she was still a married woman, and her husband was Bon Jovi's drummer Ticao-
Thores.
Having missed this relationship, Leonardo has not yet fully awakened.
