Save the Bachelor of Heaven

At the next Oscars ceremony, Li An won the Best Director Award for "Life of Pi", and this film also won three awards for Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects and Best Soundtrack.

Although "The Big Short" was also shortlisted for the four awards of Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Editing, it was a pity that it was always accompanied by runners.

"12 Years a Slave" produced by Brad Pitt's Plan B Films won the best picture award, which made him so excited that he ran to the stage to receive the award.

Matthew McConaughey won Best Actor for "Dallas Buyers Club," and Cate Blanchett won Best Actress for "Blue Jasmine."

Although Xiang Nan didn't win the award, he was very happy for Li An.

This is the second Oscar for Best Director that he has won. For a Chinese-American, he has such an achievement, which is really quite good.

...

At the party after the awards ceremony, many people sought Xiang Nan for the chance to perform in "Gone Girl" and "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

Although Xiang Nan said that he would give priority to it, in fact he had already made a decision.

The lineup of "Gone Girl" remains unchanged, and it still stars Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike. After all, their version is perfect and impeccable. Moreover, he likes these two people, and he is willing to use these two people.

"Fantastic Beasts", in addition to replacing Johnny Depp with Max McColson and Ezra Miller with Penn Badgley, basically uses the original lineup.

The reason why Depp is not used is because he is going to shoot "Pirates of the Caribbean 5" and Depp is more prone to thunderstorms.

Even if Depp doesn't meet Amber Heard, with his character, it's easy to cause trouble. After all, Depp is too kind to the people around him, and he has no defense at all. Many people will take advantage of his weakness and deliberately harm him for profit.

In comparison, Max Michelson is much more low-key. He debuted for more than 20 years, and there is no bad news, and his acting skills are superb.

The most important thing is that his salary is very cheap, only 500,000 US dollars per play. With Johnny Depp's salary, he can afford to hire a hundred of him.

And Ezra Miller is also a troublemaker. Since his debut, he has been in constant trouble. He has been accused of misconduct, intentional injury, burglary, alcohol and drug abuse many times, and the impact is extremely bad.

Instead, Penn Badgley rose to fame as the lonely boy Dan on Gossip Girl. Although he is not handsome, his acting skills are very layered, and he has attracted the attention of the industry. Xiang Nan felt that he was very suitable for the role of Mo Ran.

...

"Mr. Charles, thank you for letting Emma play in "Fake Family". That movie really made her popular, and I want to say thank you solemnly." Julia Roberts also took Emma Roberts to squeeze come over.

"You're welcome, it's her who played well." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"I heard that your "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" has not yet finalized the cast, do you see any suitable roles for Emma in the film?" Julia Roberts asked again.

Xiang Nan smiled.

Julia Roberts really bothers her niece.

"The heroine in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is not suitable for Emma, ​​give me some time, let me think about other movies, maybe there is a suitable role for her." Xiang Nan laughed.

Emma Roberts' acting skills are not bad, but because she is too short, only 1.57 meters, she looks too lacklustre. And she has a sweet appearance, so she is not suitable for a role that is too complicated and domineering.

She is best suited for the role of the girl next door, silly white sweet, or bitch. The first and second female characters in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" are not such characters. With her current coffee position, it is not easy to arrange the third and fourth girls, so she can only politely decline.

"Okay, I'll let you worry about it." Julia Roberts agreed immediately without demanding.

Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.

...

In April, Xiang Nan finalized the lead roles in two films, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" and "The Gone Girl". Emma Roberts joined the cast of "King Kong vs. Godzilla" as Rebecca, a researcher at the Emperor's organization.

Although she is the heroine in name, everyone knows that the protagonists of "King Kong vs. Godzilla" are the three big monsters. Therefore, her heroine is only in name, and she is basically not responsible for fighting the box office. But if the box office can sell well, it can be regarded as a big achievement for her.

Therefore, this is undoubtedly a very good role for her who is not very famous, her acting skills are not high, and she lacks box office appeal, so Emma Roberts is very happy.

Xiang Nan was also preparing to start filming "Taken 2", which was basically his combination with Cong Shan and Zhou Dongyu, plus different villains.

Zhou Dongyu has developed very well in the past two years. After starring in "Hurricane Rescue" one year ago, he returned to the mainland and became a front-line player. He has participated in "Painted Skin 2", "1942", and "To Our Perishing Youth". , "Chinese Partner", "Heart Flower Road" and many other movies.

These films, whether on stage or behind the scenes, are the top teams in the Mainland. Zhou Dongyu's ability to cooperate with them also shows how high her status is.

But now that the filming of "Taken 2" is starting, she is naturally happier.

She still has many competitors in the mainland, and she is also known as the Four Little Stars along with Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, and Ni Ni. After she finishes filming this movie, she will be able to surpass the scope of the Four Little Stars and become an international superstar who can keep pace with Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi.

...

In May, Universal released "Gravity," starring Jennifer Connelly, George Clooney and Ed Harris.

This is a sci-fi thriller about the three astronauts who went to space to repair the Hubble Telescope. Unfortunately, they encountered a collision with space junk and the space shuttle was destroyed. At a critical moment, they must find ways to return to Earth...

There are many more movies about deep-sea phobias. Such as "The Abyss", "Extremely Cold", "Deep Sea Beasts", "Deep Sea Mystery" and so on.

But in fact, people also generally have deep space phobia, that is, fear of the vast expanse of starry sky.

But such movies are rare.

Firstly, to shoot deep space movies, the investment is relatively large. For example, the investment in "Gravity" is as high as 150 million US dollars; secondly, the story of deep space phobia is not easy to write. Over the years, only "2001: A Space Odyssey" was considered a success.

Today, the "Gravity" produced by Universal Pictures captures the horror and mystery of the vast starry sky, which is naturally unique.

Therefore, after its release, the film was well received. James Cameron even rated it as the best space movie ever made.

The "Los Angeles Times" also commented that it is not only a technical miracle, but also a movie with a soul, and it is the best experience that audiences can get in theaters.

As a result, "Gravity" was a huge hit at the box office, with a North American box office of 270 million US dollars and a global box office of 720 million US dollars, making it a worldwide sensation.
