Chapter 783 The soaring pay


After returning from South Africa, Charlize Theron had a sudden idea of ​​adopting a black man as his adopted son, but was ruthlessly rejected by Gilbert Jr.

Many Hollywood stars will adopt one or two poor children as if they are doing charity, and most of them are black people.

In the general perception of North American society, blacks are often linked to poverty, while Latinos are related to violence and crime. As for islanders and Koreans, they are generally considered very smart, and Indians are similar.

As for Chinese people, I’m sorry, they don’t get the attention of mainstream society.

Justice Gibert thinks that donating money to do charity and doing charity activities every year is enough. It is somewhat of a pity to adopt a black child.

Charlize Theron had no choice but to give up. Although she was strong outside, she still listened to Jibert's words at home.

After returning to Los Angeles, Jibert Jr. was the first to pay attention to the preparations for "Avengers".

As of now, Marvel Studios has produced five movies: "Iron Man", "Captain America", "Invincible Hulk", "Thor", and "Iron Man 2".

There are losses and profits, but overall, the overall brand value of Marvel has been greatly improved.

This time "Avengers" is the key to the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it is unscrupulous. But what makes Marvel Studios the most headache is the actors' pay.

Take Robert Downey Jr. for example, he only paid $500,000 when he starred in "Iron Man" and by the time "Iron Man 2" had risen to $10 million.

In this "Avengers", Robert Downey Jr.'s agent is sorry for the profession of agents if he doesn't ask for a pay of more than $20 million.

Although Marvel's current movie production seems to be a single movie, it is actually equivalent to a sequel movie.

The iron rule of business in Hollywood is that if you want a high pay, you should participate in a sequel to a big-money commercial film.

The Harry Potter series is an obvious example, with the Gryffindor three giants, especially Harry Potter's actor Haley Joe Osmon, and Hermione's actor Ai Mar Watson's pay has soared.

This led to the production cost of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" as high as $315 million. Fortunately, Warner shared the burden, otherwise Disney would be a little overwhelmed.

However, in order to make money to the maximum extent, after discussing with Gilbert Jr., Disney decided to split "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" into two parts.

The upper part will be released in November this year, and the lower part will be released in the summer next year.

The terrifying pay for the sequel actors is also the reason why 20th Century Fox chose to restart the X-Men story after "X-Men 3: Battle Against the Way".

By the way, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows are not the end.

Gilbert Jr. has already talked with J.K. Rowling, and the development of the Harry Potter series will continue. Before the Gryffindor Big Three, the story of Dumbledore's youth is also worth telling.

Neither Disney nor Warner will give up this gold mine, and it must be developed enough.

Back to the movie "Avengers", since it is a sequel, it will be natural for the actors to increase their pay.

Ska's pay also rose from $300,000 for "Iron Man" to $10 million for "Avengers". The rest of the actors have risen to varying degrees, pushing the production cost of "Avengers" to $220 million.

Since July, "Avengers" has been constantly releasing news to the public.

"Robert Downey Jr. walked out of the Marvel Studios building and he has been confirmed to continue to star in "Iron Man."

"Chris Evans smiled and admitted that he was very excited to continue to star in the United States. Captain. "

"Scarlett Johnson tweeted, posting a photo of himself and director Jibert Jr., and captioned: I like the role of Natasha very much." "Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth has been confirmed to appear one after another, and soon, Tom Hiddleston, who plays Rocky, has also been confirmed to continue to appear. "

News are released one after another , constantly bombarding the movie fans. Another netizen posted that he went to Xianggua Manor to pick up garbage and picked up a drawing similar to an aircraft carrier.

It contains the signature of Jr. Gilbert, and the name of this aircraft carrier, called the Aerospace Mothership.

Such a super project obviously touches the hearts of Hollywood and the public. The director's candidate has been determined, but the actors still have room for hype.

During the continuous release of information, many actors have had scandals with "Avengers".

"Gibert Jr. did talk to me about this project, and he hoped I could play a role."

Tom Cruise said: "But you know, I've been doing it lately. Busy to prepare for "Mission Impossible 4", no schedule."

Needless to say, Tom Cruise is using "Avengers" to build momentum for his new film, and both sides are riding on each other's popularity.

Little Lizi, who had just worked with Jibert, said: "I'm very happy to play a superhero. If Jibert needs it, I can't wait.

Speaking of it This is my new film "Shut Island" starring with Hulk Mark Ruffalo. If you are interested, you can support it."

In addition to these superstars, those underestimated actors are hyping it up There are more ways to do it.

Kate Larson, who has played Little Pepper in the adult version of Iron Man, said on social media that Marvel intends to use her to replace Kate Beckinsale.

Not to mention, there are many movie fans supporting it. The reason is very simple. Kate Larson looks better than Kate Beckinsale.

But this Kate is an adult film actor, and that Kate is a serious actor.

In so many years, I have never seen any actor who can complete the leap from San Fernando Valley to Hollywood, which is a natural distance.

Apart from the actor's problem, the rest of the problem is the script problem.

Although there is the original version as a reference, Jibert Jr. still wants to overcome and modify some problems caused by the original version.

From the story of "Avengers" is very simple.

Earth suddenly faces a powerful enemy, and everyone is caught off guard, so SHIELD comes out and organizes superheroes to fight against this powerful enemy.

Compared with Gibert's previous movie "Inception", the story of "Avengers" is so simple that it can be summarized in one sentence.

But it has to be admitted that only simple movies can make a big sale in the film market. A complex movie like "Inception" will never become the mainstream in the market.

At the script level, it is divided into six different parts according to the popularity and importance of the hero. Iron Man is the most popular, while Captain America is the core, and the role of these two people is the core.

As the only female superhero, Black Widow's role was guaranteed, and the rest of Thunder Hulk and Bucky could only feel a little wronged.

However, Jibert Jr. asked the screenwriter to try to balance the roles when creating the script and not have imbalanced scenes.

In the end of July, the script passed Jibert's request and was given to the actors.

In early August, Marvel Studios officially held a press conference to announce the establishment of the "Avengers". Director Jibert Jr. and six superheroes all attended the show, shocking the movie fans. (This chapter ends)
