When the right opportunity presented itself to create an eye-catching topic, Murphy never hesitated, so what the female reporter said immediately aroused his interest, and he gave up those routine answers. A more appropriate answer came to mind in an instant.

Frankly speaking, "City of Chaos" has a good reputation, but it can't get rid of the limitations of non-sequel original films, and the box office growth doesn't seem to match the total investment of $300 million in production costs plus publicity expenses.

Especially starting from tomorrow, a new week will kick off, and "City of Chaos" will face the test of working days. If we don't create more topics in publicity, maybe it will be the same as most original films. After the weekend, it will face a sharp decline in the box office.

It is normal for box office sales to decline on weekdays, but if the daily income of tens of millions of dollars drops to two or three million dollars, no one wants to see it.

Of course, Murphy had his own purpose in throwing out such an answer.

The female reporter was also very good, and immediately asked curiously, "Why did you prepare the film in the first place? We haven't seen a similar film released before?"

"It was just a plan, but it was not implemented in the end." Murphy deliberately kept it off. "To be precise, the production company rejected the plan."

For a director like him, everything that happens is news, let alone such a big event that the film project was once rejected.

All the reporters present realized almost at the same time that this was a piece of movie news that could cause waves, and they were also very curious about which production company would reject such a director's project as him.

Brad Hansbain, a reporter from The New York Times, asked, "Murphy, what company is it, can you tell me?"

"Hmm..." Murphy looked a bit embarrassed, as if he didn't want to talk about it.

The female reporter urged, "Your movie fans must want to know about this."

Then another reporter booed, "The public has the right to know!"

"yes!"

"Which company is it?"

There was a mess of questions all around. Murphy raised his hand and made a downward gesture. After the surrounding voices became quieter, he said, "A few years ago, I was going to cooperate with Warner Brothers..."

Hearing the name Warner Bros., all the reporters pricked up their ears. Those who are well-informed know that although Murphy, Warner Bros. and DC Comics collaborated on the masterpiece "Man of Steel", because of the remuneration and the adaptation route , the quarrel between the two parties was not very pleasant.

Now that it started, Murphy never thought of stopping, "How should I put it? Everyone should be able to see that "City of Chaos" is not a story, but a series of stories."

The reporters nodded lightly. This was already evident in the video. James Franco's magician was specifically told that he was definitely not out to play soy sauce, and the murderer behind the murder of Reina seemed to be Jay Rachel. Paul's congressman's father, this character has not yet been resolved.

This film obviously has a next one, maybe even two next ones, to form a complete trilogy.

Murphy has changed the whole story, and he is not worried about copyright disputes with DC comics, "I wrote this trilogy about "City of Chaos" for Batman at the earliest."

"What?"

"what?"

"Batman?"

"The Batman Trilogy?"

"He thought about adapting Batman?"

There was a commotion among the reporters at the scene, and none of them seemed to have expected that the name Batman would come out of Murphy's mouth.

"Yes, it's Batman!" Murphy wanted this effect, and continued, "Although "City of Chaos" has changed a lot from the original project, story and plot I prepared for Batman, the film framework and theme It hasn't changed."

He smiled, "Actually, Batman's identity as a dark knight is very suitable for this film."

Those present were all journalists who specialize in movies and Hollywood, and they have done some research on this industry.

Think about the hero of "City of Chaos", and then think about Master Bruce Wayne. If New York is replaced by Gotham, the setting of Master is the same as that of Chris Dane, which is very suitable for the theme and theme of this film. atmosphere.

In some respects, these two characters are a little bit similar, for example, they both lost their fathers in childhood, but Bruce Wayne's father is a real good man, and Chris Dane's father is only real in front of his son nice guy.

Murphy sighed a long time, "Unfortunately, Warner Bros. thought that my adaptation completely overturned the comics, was too dark and heavy, and rejected that plan, so I can only start from scratch..."

Having said that, he shook his head vigorously, looking very regretful.

The New York Times reporter Brad Hansbain asked again, "Murphy, can you talk about why Warner Bros. refused?"

"They think the story is too dark, heavy and depressing..." Murphy shrugged, "I don't know the rest, you have to ask Warner Bros."

Murphy winked, and Grace, who was accompanying him, immediately stood up and said loudly, "This is the end of today's interview, thank you for your concern!"

Several bodyguards separated a passage and sent Murphy and Grace to the RV. Gal Gadot and Margot Robbie were already waiting in the car.

"Grace." Murphy ordered, "Inform Kara Firth and Bill of what you just said, and let them handle it as appropriate."

He glanced at Margot Robbie, then lowered his voice, and said to Grace, "Notify our black fan organization, spread relevant news on the Internet, and make sure to stir up this topic."

After he had an idea, he cooperated with CAA to form a loose network troll army into a more professional anti-fan organization.

Professional black fans are more efficient and targeted than cyber trolls.

Moreover, the development of the North American Internet has reached the current stage. Since the "Blair Witch" in the 1990s, the Internet trolls that Hollywood has been using have fallen behind. More professional Internet hype tools are also people like Murphy. indispensable.

The video of Murphy's interview was uploaded to Youtubie almost immediately, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.

In less than half an hour, relevant information on social networking sites represented by Facebook and Twitter was also widely followed and reposted. Coupled with the addition of Murphy's black fan organization to add fuel to the flames, regarding "After Chaos" City's connection to Batman and Warner Bros. quickly became a hotly debated entertainment topic.

Murphy and Warner Bros. were the focus, and unfortunately, the latter was basically the villain, especially among DC fans.

A user called 'I love Bruce Wayne', after reposting the video of Murphy's interview, wrote on his Twitter, "Seeing the thrilling and dark and heavy theme of "Chaos City" has everything behind it." I can imagine how wonderful it would be if this story happened to the master! Originally, Murphy Stanton might give Batman a new life on the big screen, but it was given to him by the pigs of Warner management. destroyed!"

A message on Facebook, representing the voice of many DC fans, "Think about the wonderfulness of "City of Chaos", think about Clark Kent's glory through "Man of Steel", Bruce Wayne misses Murphy - Stanton, probably the biggest regret in Batman's life!"

Someone followed with a comment, "I feel sorry for the master!"

Another person who forwarded it wrote, "Seeing the video of Murphy's interview today, my heart is broken. I will watch "Chaos City" tonight to soothe my heart."

This is just one of the representatives. Many DC fans who didn't pay attention to "City of Chaos" before, after reading these news and information, the most direct idea is to buy tickets and go to the theater to watch this movie, and Murphy brought DC before. Superhero movies have never been better, and they won't be disappointed after seeing them.

Although Chris Dane and Bruce Wayne have very obvious differences, but the common dark attributes still make DC fans feel quite emotional.

"If Chris Dane is replaced by Bruce Wayne, the whole story will definitely become more soul-stirring!"

"I strongly urge Murphy to come back and continue directing DC's superhero movies, especially the reboot of the Batman movie. He will definitely bring us a dark epic!"

Similar voices emerge in endlessly on social networking sites.

The top executives of Warner Bros. and DC Comics have also become the targets of reporters and paparazzi. Regardless of whether they participated in the talks with Murphy at the beginning, they will all be asked why they rejected the "Batman" movie proposed by Murphy Stanton.

Some reporters even went to the premiere executive of Warner Bros. Bruce Rosenblum and asked him face to face, "Seeing the popularity of "City of Chaos" and the box office are quite good, do you regret rejecting Murphy-Stein?" Ton' and the like.

All of this annoys Bruce Rosenboom, and now he has to bear the scapegoat that his predecessor made.

In this series of word-of-mouth marketing and publicity hype, as the direct competitor of "City of Chaos" this weekend, "Thor" has received less and less attention, and inevitably marginalized, while starring in "Thor" "The several actors of ", apart from being criticized for interviews and having no acting skills, they hardly received any positive comments.

One of the most famous Natalie - Portman is no exception.

She said nothing and never expected that after many years, she would act in a commercial masterpiece again, and she would get these.

On Monday morning, Natalie Portman was sitting in the VIP restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel, drinking skim milk, reading the newspaper just delivered by her assistant, and seeing the hype about "City of Chaos", there was always something in her heart. An indescribable depression.

This Murphy Stanton is shameless to the extreme!
