I'm a movie star on earth

Chapter 479 "Creed" boot

At the end of May, "Creed" officially started filming in Studio 23 of Warner Studios.The first scene is the scene where the protagonist played by Lee Hyuk and the reversed self fight in the corridor.

For this scene, he trained for half a month with action actors of his own size, and it was time to witness the results.Before the filming started, director Nolan and Li He took a group photo, and assistant Yuanyuan posted it on Weibo and Li He's personal Twitter.

"This is the second collaboration with director Nolan. This time I'm the protagonist. I feel a lot of pressure. I look forward to giving you wonderful performances..."

In the group photo, Li Hyuk and Nolan are standing together in suits and leather shoes, which looks like a male god duo.The photos also aroused heated discussions among fans, and Da Mi Mi Studio also bought a hot search for this, and successfully grabbed the headlines.

From this point of view, Li Hyuk is no different from those traffic stars, they are all masters of creating topics and hype, and they are also good at buying headlines.Just like what the sunspots said, posting photos can make headlines, and the entertainment industry is all the same.

The majority of passers-by and netizens didn’t feel much. After all, they have seen a lot in the past few years, and it’s better for Li He to buy headlines than those fresh meat with little traffic. At least Li He has works.

The public is always very tolerant of actors with works, as long as it is not a big mistake, they don't care about the trivial matter of buying popular searches and hype.However, everyone is not so polite to traffic stars who buy hot searches, and there are countless abuses and ridicules.

But the traffic has fans controlling comments, resulting in fans' rainbow farts under Weibo, which can't be read at all.

Warner Pictures, the distributor of "Creed", has also started to promote the film in the early stage. One of the easier things to do is that Lee Hyuk has a certain popularity foundation in North America, and the old money of "La La Land" has not been eaten until now. use up.Therefore, the protagonist is Li Hyuk, and it did not arouse fierce reactions from other groups other than Uncle Hei. Many Chinese even expressed their surprise.

The reason why Uncle Black objected is also very simple, because John David Washington did not become the leading actor.In order to balance Uncle Hei's sensitive mind, Nolan gave a relatively important supporting role to a black actor, Don Cheadle, who played the role of Rhodes in "Iron Man", which barely soothed Uncle Hei's sensitive heart.

Nolan has always liked to be quiet when making movies, and the film went straight into shooting without even having a launch conference.The protagonist played by Lee Hyuk fights with the reversed self. This scene took a full week of filming to meet Nolan's requirements.

Although it was filmed at Warner Studios in California, USA, the scene actually took place at Oslo Airport in Norway. Nolan took the scene before shooting, and then built a real scene one by one for shooting.

After filming the action scene for a week, Li Hyuk has a heart-to-heart relationship with the action actor who fought with him, and the two of them played tacitly, so that the final effect is very good.

The assistant Yuanyuan is always on set to take care of Li Hyuk. Seeing such a handsome fighting scene of Li Hyuk, she wants to shoot a video and upload it on Douyin, but the crew will not allow this kind of thing.

In fact, the training videos of Li Hyuk and a group of actors have already been circulated on the Internet, including a set of extremely weird action routines, which made the netizens stunned.

And a remake team on the domestic B station set up the plot by itself, and reproduced the action routines in the training video, which made domestic netizens shouted that it was excellent and enjoyable.

The copied video was also uploaded to YouTube abroad. Many international friends exclaimed that Chinese Kung Fu is awesome, and the popularity of the video further increased.However, what everyone is most curious about is how the film will present these weird anti-physical action scenes. It is said that director Nolan is shooting real shots, real shots, not special effects.

Actual filming means that the actors have to go into battle in person. To complete this action, one or two paragraphs is okay, but the whole film is like this, isn’t it a bit too crazy?
In fact, this is all speculation by the media and netizens. The specific content of the film is estimated to be difficult for anyone except Nolan to grasp, including several leading actors.

During the filming break, Lee Hyuk accepted an exclusive interview with Warner's media "TMZ", in which he talked about the story content of the film. Lee Hyuk told the reporter: "Yes, actually I didn't understand the script."

The reporter looked surprised and said, "Didn't understand? Is the script difficult to understand?"

"Actually, it's not just me, including Robert and Elizabeth. We didn't understand it. When I read it for the first time, I thought I understood it. The second time I felt that I didn't understand it. After the third time, I was completely dizzy." .”

"How did the filming work?" Can you still shoot if you don't understand the script?Reporters said they could not understand.

"Everything is under the control of Director Nolan. He is undoubtedly a movie genius and one of the best Hollywood directors I have worked with. Before each filming, he will explain in detail how we should shoot this scene and how to do it. In order to achieve the effect he wanted, in fact, except for the action scenes, the shooting of the film will be tiring, but other times are better." Li Hyuk replied.

On the other hand, Nolan accepted an interview with "Time" magazine at the same time. He said that the film needs to be very smart to understand, and it is a very brain-burning film.

The key words are brain-burning, fans who follow Nolan understand, the film is probably another Inception type film.But in fact there are still differences between the two. "Inception" seems to be brain-intensive, but in fact the story structure is a traditional three-stage drama structure, that is, receiving tasks at the beginning, executing tasks in the middle, and completing tasks at the end.

The reason why the audience burns their brains is because Nolan set up a blindfold, which makes the audience and the protagonist feel like a dream all the time. By the end of the film, it is already hard to tell whether it is a dream or reality.

But "Creed" is different. In essence, it has a little religious color. Nolan himself believes in fatalism very much. He believes that the choices people make in life are predestined, and the subjective choices you think are predestined. all right.

And this kind of thinking is also used in the creation of "Creed". Every time the protagonist of the film makes a choice, he thinks it is his own subjective action, but he does not expect to be understood by his future self, and all his actions are destined. of.

And the structure of the film is also a special giant loop structure, that is, from the beginning to the end, how to shoot depends on the director's scheduling.

The two interviews did not reveal much, but it was enough for Nolan fans to look forward to.In fact, Nolan's popularity in China is higher than that in Hollywood, and even Nolan is a bit overblown and deified.

Many of Nolan's films have received higher evaluations in China than abroad, and have also attracted a large number of fans.This strong cooperation between Li Hyuk and Nolan can be said to be reasonable for both parties. Nolan can continue to strengthen Chinese movie fans, and Li Hyuk also takes this opportunity to continue to broaden his path in Hollywood. It can be said that it is a win-win situation.

But movies are never just about movies, especially this kind of cross-country and ethnic cooperation movies, the complex situation behind it is beyond imagination.
