Chapter 390 The King of Horror Movies
May 4.
The film "Tomb Raider" produced by Zhuke and co-produced by Paramount and Wald Pictures will be officially launched today at Paramount's Film and Television Base.
Director: Simon West;
General Producer: Juke Wald;
Executive Producer: Tom Harris;
Chief Screenwriter: Juke Wald;
heroine: Angelina Jolie;
Actor: Haha, it is not important at all for this film;
Total production cost: US$80 million.
Although the film "Tomb Raider" had held a press conference for the start of filming before, when the day of filming was launched, it still attracted a large number of media reporters to come and report.
However, this time Zucker did not accept an interview.
Even the entire Tomb Raider crew refused the interview.
Man, I started filming today, and it doesn’t make much sense to be interviewed. After all, my heart is still early before the movie is released, so I don’t rush for a moment.
"Mr. Wald, thank you again."
In front of Zhuke, a young man with yellow skin and dark hair was very excited to express his gratitude to Zhuke.
"You're welcome, you are a classmate of Sack, and I think you have good potential. I think it's very worthwhile to support you." Zhuke showed great enthusiasm.
His name is James Win, 23 years old, graduated from the Melbourne Film and Television School in Australia, and is an Australian Chinese and his ancestral home is Malaysia.
As a young director who has just left school, he just came to Hollywood and came into contact with Hollywood giants like Zucker. His excitement completely overflowed his face.
"Thank you~"
Not to mention James Win, even those directors in Hollywood who have been famous for a long time, will not have the courage to refuse the olive branch offered by Zucker.
This is Zucker's current power in Hollywood!
"Mr. Wald, Director Simon West, asked me to inform you that the film will officially start 10 minutes later. He asked you to prepare."
A voice rang out not far from Zhuke.
The person who came was Sack McNick Jr., the producer assistant of the Tomb Raider crew.
Sack Jr. was brought into the group by Zhuke, and he is the grandson of Old Bill.
Otherwise, a newcomer who wants to become a producer assistant who invests in $80 million in movies, he doesn't have to think about it, and he knows that this is impossible.
"Okay, I get it, tell Director Simon that I'll be there later," Zucker glanced at his watch.
"I understand, boss." Xiao Sak responded and left in a hurry.
He is such a lively and energetic young man.
Of course, when he left, he blinked at James Win. After all, the two of them, plus Ray Warner, were both classmates from Melbourne Film and Television School; and he introduced James Win to this job opportunity.
Zucker looked at James Win in front of him again and patted him on the shoulder: "Now, I will give you the opportunity to be the deputy director of the Tomb Raider movie. As for how much you can learn, it depends on your own."
"I will not let you down." James Winn assured loudly.
James Win also clenched his fists to strengthen his confidence.
He just left school and served as the associate director of a film with an investment of $80 million, and his start was a very high.
You know, even a great director like Zach Schneider was wandering in the advertising and mtv circles for several years before he could enter Hollywood!
Even if the deputy directors in the film crew are mostly working as chores, and not only have one assistant director, this opportunity is indeed very rare and is the object of envy of many people.
"Boss, do you think he is capable of making it?"
Chief assistant Alexander looked at James Wen Yuan's back and said, "There are no 100,000 young directors like this in Hollywood, and there are definitely more than 10,000 people. I have not found his shining points for the time being."
"Haha, you know nothing!" Zhuke couldn't help but laugh and scold.
Alexander: "…..."
Young director James Win, he has no highlights?
Isn't this kidding?!
James Wen, also known as Wan Ziren, will be the director who will be named "the king of horror films" in the future.
"Saw", "Dead Silence", "Landed", "Summoning"......
These well-known horror movies are all created by James Win.
At the same time, the two film directors of "Fast and Furious 7" and "Aquaman" have achieved terrifying box office worldwide, and it is also James Win.
Especially his famous work "Saw"!
With a production cost of just over 1 million US dollars, it has created a big film that swept the world's box office and achieved a box office of over 100 million US dollars. It is definitely a typical example of "making big with small profits" among Hollywood movies.
The most important thing is the "Saw" movie, which is a series of movies;
In other words, it can keep shooting and continuously delivering dollars to Zucker, which is a gold mine at all.
"Mother of Saws" Ray Wonal is currently working on the WB TV network under Zucker. Moreover, he will be the screenwriter of the movie "Saws" in the future and the leading actor;
Now, James Winn is also working under Zucker.
“Haha~”
Zhuke couldn't help but think: "Movies such as "Saw", "Dead Silence", "Luxing", "Conjuring" will also belong to Wald's movies, and I, Zhuke Wald."
Even Zucker couldn't help but imagine that he could imitate the Marvel Cinematic Universe and create a horror film universe.
.........
Ten minutes passed quickly.
With Zucker's nod and at the command of director Simon West, the film "Tomb Raider" officially started filming.
Angelina Jolie, the actress who plays the heroine Laura, appeared first in the camera. Her clean and cool look made people shine.
"Wow, what a beautiful girl!"
"His double xiong is really strong, there is something inside."
"Absolutely, even the buttocks are covered."
"Wow, Angelina Jolie's tights look alone is definitely worthy of many moviegoers entering the cinema!"
At a corner of the crew's shooting venue, more than a dozen supporting actors couldn't help but talk in a low voice.
Of course, they will definitely whisper very quietly. After all, the scene needs to be received. Fortunately, they are far away enough, otherwise director Simon West would definitely scold them to death and let them all get out.
Angelina Jolie, now it is different.
At the just-passed Oscar ceremony, she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as a supporting actress in the movie "The Soul-Evering Girl".
The net worth and pay have increased slightly.
Therefore, the Paramount executives who originally complained about Angelina Jolie's role as Laura and complained about her role as the actress, the actress, stopped talking about her.
.........
The same day.
When the filming of Tomb Raider began, Wald Pictures also issued two official announcements.
"The Ninth District" is about to start filming, and actors are now being recruited publicly;
"The Queen of Prada" is about to start filming, and it will recruit actors from the public;
As soon as the news came out, a wave of waves was immediately set off among Hollywood agency and actors.
Chapter completed!
