Chapter 459 Women’s Careers
Sijia has a job in 2004, and the others will not be idle either.
After Charlize Theron expressed great interest in "Mad Max 4: Fury Road", Warner will not consider anyone else.
However, director George Miller's health has not improved, and the project has not been launched.
George Miller also suggested that Warner executives, if they couldn't wait, could let Gilbert Jr. take over the project.
But Gilbert Jr. said he was unavailable, and it was impossible for Warner to keep Gilbert Jr. busy with this project. Warner and DC hope that Gilbert Jr. will finish his work on "Warriors" and quickly save Gotham City, but not to shoot other projects.
On Disney's side, Robert Iger has nothing to say. After all, this is something that Gilbert Jr. has already reached an agreement with Warner.
However, Robert Iger is pushing hard for Disney to win the distribution rights for Marvel Studios' first movie to compete with DC's superhero movies.
On the Marvel Studios side, after a long period of planning and under the guidance of Gilbert Jr., the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe has been formed and has entered the third phase of the Marvel Universe.
The reason why we have only reached the third stage is because the fourth stage is too confusing. Little Gilbert didn't understand it himself, so he didn't bring it up for now.
Such a clear plan shocked even Marvel executives who were setting foot in the film industry for the first time.
It turns out that this is the planning ability of the top directors in the world today? According to this plan, Marvel movies will be available in ten years.
Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios, was so shocked that he regarded this plan as a treasure and a trade secret, carefully guarding it and only a few senior executives knew about it.
Logically speaking, a newly established film company will usually make a film to test the waters and not make any long-term plans.
This is also the reason why there were some inconsistencies in the early stages of previous Marvel movies. At that time, Marvel was just testing the waters and did not have such a clear long-term plan.
But things are different now. Little Gilbert has pointed the way.
Although I don’t know why Little Gilbert is so confident, given his past performance in the film market, Marvel executives have great trust in Little Gilbert.
How do you say this kind of trust? It’s as if God said little Gilbert is not worthy of trust, and Marvel’s top management will continue to trust little Gilbert. It’s such an exaggeration.
Therefore, according to the plan, Marvel Studios will start the production of the first "Iron Man 1" in 2006. The reason why we have to wait until 2006 instead of now is mainly because of Gilbert Jr.'s decision.
If it had been produced in 2004 and released in 2005, it would have coincided with "Batman Begins," which he directed.
The delay is to divert the competition between DC and Marvel. He is a shareholder of Warner, and DC is a subsidiary of Warner, and he also has a share.
Of course, this is just Gilbert's wishful thinking, and competition is inevitable.
But compared to DC, which still doesn’t know how to save itself, Marvel Studios’ path is undoubtedly broad.
Interestingly, Tom Cruise actually expressed his willingness to star in "Iron Man" to Gilbert Jr. before. But then Tom Cruise said that he was no longer interested.
This actually puts little burden on Gilbert. When the time comes, he can just choose Robert Downey Jr.
Robert Downey Jr. is definitely not as popular as Tom Cruise, but his advantage is also obvious, that is, he is cheap enough.
Robert Downey Jr. is also a better fit than Tom Cruise for a cinematic universe that needs a long-term franchise.
Going back to Charlize Theron's work, the "Fury Road" project has been temporarily shelved, but Charlize Theron is not lacking in projects.
She will next star in the biographical film "The Life and Death of Peter Sellers" with Geoffrey Rush, John Lithgow and Emily Watson.
There's also the romance film "The Big Three," co-starring Penélope Cruz and Stuart Townsend, and many other projects are in the pipeline.
It seems that these projects are not very good, but there is no way. Little Gilbert has only heard of so many famous Hollywood movies, and there are many that he has never heard of, so it is normal.
Things went better for Naomi Watts. Little Gilbert had at least heard of the "King Kong" project.
In addition, Naomi Watts took over two movies, a romantic comedy and a literary film, aiming to win awards.
Little Gilbert had never heard of it. He found out that it was not run by Harvey Weinstein and did not interfere. Little Gilbert is cautious, and he still remembers the Harvey Weinstein incident, so he has always been on guard against it.
But it now appears that Harvey Weinstein has given up on the idea, or that he gave up after that night.
After all, there are so many beauties in Hollywood, so there is no need to offend little Gilbert for a Naomi Watts.
From here we can also learn about Harvey Weinstein’s hobbies and his preference for petite beauties. Of course, men are philanthropic, and they are not only petite, but also vegetarian and vegan.
In addition to these movies, Naomi Watts has also agreed to guest star in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". The film is directed by Tim Burton and stars Johnny Depp.
Naomi Watts plays Mrs. Bucket, the mother of little Charlie.
In fact, generally speaking, famous A-list actresses will not take roles such as mothers in commercial movies unless they have no other choice.
Because once you play a mother-type role in a commercial movie, it means you are marginalized and have no chance of becoming a popular role.
Naomi Watts is very calm about this. Life is enough for her. The actress has been among the top actresses in Hollywood for a long time.
Now that I have children, making movies is more of a hobby.
According to Naomi Watts, from now on she will occasionally film movies to satisfy her interests, and then return to her family to take good care of little Gilbert and the children.
Of course, after accepting "King Kong", Naomi Watts always has to show off her remaining star power.
Actresses will decline after they reach thirty. She is thirty-five and almost thirty-six. It is not easy to maintain the status of a superstar.
Cameron Diaz is pregnant and has temporarily put down her work to focus on raising her baby.
Jennifer Connelly has also taken on a few roles, one of which, "The Fairy Wife," is quite interesting.
Gilbert Jr. freed up Jennifer Connelly's schedule to play Rachel in "Batman Begins."
Little Gilbert didn't like Katie Holmes or Maggie Gyllenhaal, so he chose Jennifer Connelly.
This role is quite important. It just so happens that Jennifer Connelly has not participated in many A-level productions. Little Gilbert took her to experience it.
It is worth mentioning Anne Hathaway. After "Lord of the Rings", Anne Hathaway was actually a bit embarrassed.
Although Anne Hathaway gained high popularity with the role of Arwen. This also led to her embarrassment in choice. The movies she watched looked down on her, after all, there were so many actresses in Hollywood.
And if she likes her movies, she usually doesn't like them herself.
So if you can't do a good job, you can't do a low job, so you can only accept some movies that are not so bad and make do.
However, there is still a surprise that a fantasy movie "The Chronicles of Narnia" approached Anne Hathaway and hoped that she would play a role in it.
Anne Hathaway readily agreed, she liked the positioning of this role.
It can be seen from several of Gilbert's women since childhood that famous actresses are embarrassed in Hollywood.
Hollywood is a completely male-dominated society, where men dominate everything. Therefore, female roles in A-level major productions usually cause fierce competition among Hollywood actresses.
It is because they know that opportunities are rare, and big projects are not waiting for them every day, so they need to grab them and fight for them.
Even the women supported by Little Gilbert are in this state, let alone the other struggling actresses.
Therefore, the position next to Hollywood big shots is very popular, and the problems that can be solved by sleeping with them are actually small problems.
