Save the Bachelor of Heaven

In February, the movie released was the movie "Spy Belle" starring Charlize Theron.

Charlize Theron was born in 1975, began as a model, and then engaged in acting. However, her acting career was not smooth, and she could only play some small roles at the beginning. It was not until the 2000-year-old "Diver of the Raging Sea" that she emerged.

This "Secret Agent Belle" is also a comedy film, telling the story of a female detective who is forced to change her image of a tomboy and enter the beauty pageant after learning that a criminal is going to detonate a bomb in the Miss America pageant The story of an active undercover agent.

In this movie, the heroine completes the transition from tomboy to beauty. Charlize Theron was born a model, and she doesn't mind being ugly and rude.

She shaved off her eyebrows, put on false teeth, painted on age spots, and even gained thirty pounds in "The Devil's Head" to play the serial female killer.

So she completed the role very well, not worse than the original Sandra Bullock. Her natural and unaffected performance has also won unanimous praise from the industry.

Plus this is a female-led movie, and Charlize Theron plays the heroine, worthy of the name, not a vassal of any male lead. And its theme is also to advocate women's self-reliance and self-improvement.

All the beauty pageants in history have been treated with different eyes. It seems that the beauties of the pageant are all beautiful, empty-headed Barbie dolls.

But this "Secret Agent Belle" has completely subverted this concept. The beauties are not empty-headed vases who only know how to play with their heads and compete for the wind and jealousy. They will also be sad, sad, and support each other. They are also real people. It's the organizers who are the real villains, making rules to consume women.

Therefore, after the film was released, it was very popular with female audiences. In the end, the North American box office earned 80 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office reached 150 million U.S. dollars.

For a film that focuses on women, this film can be said to be quite successful.

...

At the end of February, after Xiang Nan returned to Hollywood, he was preparing for the new year's filming plan.

The new year's projects include "Men in Black 2", "Stealing the Sky", "Wolverine", "Daredevil 2", "Signs", "Fast and Furious", "Tomb Raider", "007" Die Another Day, Fake Angels, and Pirates of the Caribbean.

"Men in Black 2" and "Super Daredevil 2" both use the original cast, only the heroine and villain have been replaced. "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun" is a grand-theft-themed movie, a remake of the original work of the same name in the 1960s; "Wolverine" is an extra chapter of "X-Men", telling the origin of the hero Wolverine.

On the one hand, let the audience know more about this character, on the other hand, in order to expand the universe of "X-Men", it also introduces the villain Saber-toothed Tiger, General Stryker, and many superheroes such as Deadpool, Ghost, Meatball, Agent Zero, and Gambit.

"Signs of the Sky" is a suspenseful sci-fi film about a crop circle suddenly appearing on a farm. Whether it was a prank, a trace of aliens, or a supernatural event... There are different opinions. The protagonist searches for the truth behind the scenes, but the final result is surprising.

Tomb Raider is a movie based on a game. Its protagonist, Laura Crawford, was once the number one beauty in the game industry and was deeply loved by players.

And she is not only beautiful, but more importantly, she is agile, knowledgeable, bold, careful, and intelligent. With her own power, she has taken risks all over the world and explored many unsolved mysteries.

This movie is Angelina Jolie's representative work, and it is precisely because of this movie that she became a popular actress in Hollywood in one fell swoop, ranking among the 20 million club.

But Xiang Nan is not going to use her anymore.

On the one hand, he and Angelina have been together for five years, no matter how beautiful a woman is, five years is enough; on the other hand, Angelina's salary is too high, it is no longer cost-effective to hire her.

Compared with famous artists, he is more willing to use lesser-known newcomers, which saves money and is easier to manipulate.

After comprehensive consideration, he plans to use Scarlett Johansson.

Scarlett was born in 1984 and made her debut in 1994. Because of her sweet and pleasant appearance, she is very popular in the circle.

Just like Mckenna Grace, she is beautiful and cute, so every time Hollywood uses a girl star, she will be the first to think of her.

Moreover, although Scarlett is young, her acting skills are very good. She has been nominated for Best Actress at the Independent Spirit Award, Best Supporting Actress at the Box Office Bomb Award, and many stars of hope. In the future, he will also win the Venice Film Festival Best Actress with "Lost in Translation".

In addition, although she debuted as a child star, her appearance has not changed since she grew up, and she is still beautiful and moving. This also allowed her to transition smoothly from a child star to an adult movie star.

Unlike some child stars, when they grow up, their appearance is completely different from that of when they were young, so they were very popular when they were young, but they became obsolete when they grew up.

Such conditions, looking left and right, playing Laura Crawford is very suitable. Beautiful and sassy, ​​with a low salary, it is much more suitable than Angelina Jolie.

...

The "Fast and Furious" series of movies was a criminal action movie in the early days, telling the story of detectives chasing a car robbery, having a misunderstanding with Boss Tang, and finally punishing criminals together.

It's only with the sixth installment that the series starts to get magical. The protagonist drives the car to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, and even Newton's coffin board can't hold it down.

Xiang Nan is going to act in this movie himself, and he will play Boss Tang.

On the one hand, with the popularization of special effects technology, the market for fist and kick kung fu movies will become narrower and narrower in the future. In the next two decades, almost no pure action movie will be able to enter the top ten of Hollywood's annual box office rankings.

Xiang Nan needs a movie to maintain his popularity, and the "Fast and Furious" series is just right.

On the one hand, it was rumored that Vin Diesel was not easy to get along with, and he dominated the crew, causing everyone in the crew to hate him. So instead of using him, Xiang Nan might as well go into battle himself. While saving production costs, it can also increase box office appeal.

...

"007: Die Another Day" is a sequel to the 007 series.

This is Xiang Nan's first 007 movie shooting after the acquisition of MGM.

The actor of 007 is still Pierce Brosnan. Xiang Nan thinks he is the most handsome 007 he has ever seen. Always suave, handsome, wise and courageous, yet humorous.

Xiang Nan didn't want to change the choice of Bond girl, Halle Berry and Rosamund Pike were just right. But fine-tune the story, after all, Xiang Nan doesn't want to offend anyone.

When the movie was released back then, it caused quite a stir, and Xiang Nan didn't want to cause trouble for himself.
