They were all so into the drama!
Chapter 642 The stressed out old white man
Due to the abundant funding, the actors of Now You See Me are quite good.
Except for Huo Mingjie, who plays the protagonist, the rest of the actors are basically familiar Hollywood actors.
Morgan Freeman, who played the black old man in The Shawshank Redemption, and Michael Caine, who played the old butler in Batman...
There is another hidden protagonist in this movie, who is an agent of Forberle on the surface, but the mastermind behind the four knights.
In the movie, he has to fight wits and courage with the leader of the four knights played by Huo Mingjie. And it was not until the last moment that his true identity was revealed.
Such an important role was played by Nicolas Cage.
He started to work to pay off his debts this year. As long as he is willing to pay, he is willing to take any job.
Even if he plays a supporting role for Huo Mingjie, a young man who is "new to the game" in Hollywood, he is willing to...
In fact, there was no heroine in the movie at the beginning. There was no female in the four knights of the protagonist group. It was a pure male drama.
But in order to attract attention, one of the four horsemen was replaced by a female actress, who performed a water tank escape magic at the beginning of the movie.
For this kind of figure-showing role, the crew also chose Megan Fox, who was praised as a sexy goddess because of her figure-showing at the beginning of "Transformers".
She was kicked out directly because she offended the film producer before, and she didn't even have a role in "Transformers 3"...
Just by picking and putting together, New MGM put together a star-studded and quite intimidating crew for Huo Mingjie!
Huo Mingjie is actually a little bit overwhelmed here, after all, his fame in Europe and the United States is just so-so. He is the kind of person who has many fans of his appearance, but his foundation is very shallow.
But almost nothing happened during the filming process. The most difficult thing was actually the mistakes made by the actors in the magic performance shots.
After all, they just learned a few tricks before the filming, and it is inevitable that there will be some problems during the filming...
Apart from that, there are no other problems, and the filming progress is very fast!
As for why these Hollywood stars don't want to "bully" Huo Mingjie, an outsider, together?
In order to support his boss, Leon, the president of New MGM, simply served as the producer himself and stayed in the crew!
Huo Mingjie really couldn't suppress these Hollywood stars just by reputation. But the capital behind him can make them obedient...
Today, Leon finally got rid of the word "temporary" on his head, and officially took over as the president of New MGM with the support of Huo Mingjie!
The first movie after the reorganization of New MGM, "007: Skyfall", has also had its world premiere some time ago.
The results obtained are quite surprising!
The box office results in North America alone are as high as 290 million US dollars.
The global box office has not been counted yet, but all parties estimate that the final total box office can reach 1 billion US dollars!
This box office is better than the box office results of "Inception".
It can only be said that movies can really make money by "feelings"!
Even though this movie can only be considered as passing, it easily earned a lot of box office revenue with the "007" brand.
That's why everyone is trying to develop some IP, and even Green Media is trying this year...
With such achievements, Leon, an elite white man, finally got what he wanted, and with Huo Mingjie's nod, he officially became the president of the new MGM!
The movie "007" has a lot of audiences and a higher exposure rate.
It stands to reason that Huo Mingjie, who also starred in it, should have his fame improved again like he did in "Inception".
But things didn't go so smoothly!
A handsome Asian face appeared in the movie "007", playing the role of "Dr. Q", which did cause some discussion and brought some attention.
Even in the mainland, it also caused fans to be excited and congratulated their idol for starring in a Hollywood blockbuster again.
However, the charm of the character "Dr. Q" is really not as good as "Fisher, the heir of the energy empire" in "Inception".
Although it caused a lot of discussion, it only helped Huo Mingjie to become familiar to European and American audiences, and his fame did not cause any qualitative change...
Leon, who had just officially taken office as president, was probably worried that his position would be unstable because this role did not bring fame to his boss like before.
So he quickly found Huo Mingjie who was filming in the crew, and patted his chest to assure:
"Boss, you don't have to worry about it. Now our new MGM company can provide you with more resources!"
It has to be said that Leon, an elite old white man, has some skills.
MGM, which was originally in decline, has obviously regained some of its former glory in his hands over the past year.
Not only the "007" series of movies, he also started the filming of "The Hobbit" last year, and has been constantly involved in cooperation with several other major Hollywood companies.
The resources now in the hands of the new MGM are no longer as scarce as they were when it was just reorganized.
Now, even if Huo Mingjie doesn't invest more to make him the lead actor, he can still get Huo Mingjie into the major Hollywood crews just by exchanging resources with Hollywood!
In order to show the authenticity of his words, Leon continued:
"Boss, do you have any movies you really want to participate in?"
"Jurassic Park series, or Transformers series? These are all projects that are planned to be launched this year or next year, and I can definitely help you get involved."
Looking at Leon's flattering gesture of loyalty and dedication, Huo Mingjie couldn't help but touch his nose with a guilty conscience.
Previously, Huo Mingjie had been using the "president" position to hang on to Leon, the old white man, and it seemed that the old guy was a little stressed.
It seemed that he was afraid that Huo Mingjie would take his position again if he was not careful.
"Leon, you don't have to do this at all..." Huo Mingjie said helplessly.
Leon suddenly realized what he said and said:
"Yes, boss, you may not want to play a supporting role."
"I remember that Marvel has a Chinese hero. Do you need me to think of a way..."
Marvel's Chinese hero?
Isn't that just the disgusting Shang-Chi!
Huo Mingjie paused, turned his head and looked at Leon, and said in a deep voice:
"No, I don't care about the status... But don't mention the Chinese hero in Marvel to me again, I don't like it very much!"
Leon blinked his eyes and finally closed his mouth.
Well, it seems that the boss doesn't like Marvel...
