Chapter 619: Pirates of the Caribbean 2 is coming

On June 3th, the new movie "Mission Impossible " starring Tom Cruise was released.

Tom Cruise's appeal is still quite amazing despite his divorce and various negative news. The film grossed 6035 million U.S. dollars in its first week.

It is worth noting that Paramount was quite satisfied with the first week box office, and the film's overseas performance was also quite good.

If Mission: Impossible 3 repeats the same path as its predecessor, Paramount will probably be quite desperate and there will be another storm.

But now under normal circumstances, although the profit is not much, at least it will not cause tension between Paramount and Tom Cruise.

Gilbert Jr. did not attend the event, but still helped promote it on his social media account.

At the same time, he also told Tom Cruise: "As agreed last time, I want to play a cool agent."

Tom Cruise said no problem: "Sure man, it must be a cool agent."

The interaction between the two attracted a lot of people's attention, and some people left messages saying that they were looking forward to Gilbert Jr. appearing in "Mission Impossible".

It is not uncommon for directors to make guest appearances in movies. Gilbert Jr. has also made guest appearances in a few movies, but not many.

Mission: Impossible 3 only lasted a week, and on July 7, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest was released.

Since Gilbert Jr.'s "Pirates of the Caribbean 1", the hype about the second film has never stopped. And this time the sequel has a new director, which makes fans a little worried.

But fortunately, the original cast has returned, with Johnny Depp continuing to play the charming Captain Jack Sparrow, Orlando Bloom continuing to play Will Turner, and Keira Knightley playing Elizabeth Swann.

The most surprising thing is the return of Geoffrey Rush. He was very impressive as Captain Barbossa in the previous episode, and he returns again in this episode.

This is a film he produced, and little Gilbert took time out to attend the premiere with Scarlett.

Because of the influence of the previous film, the film has accumulated a certain number of fans. In addition, the quality of the trailer is quite good, and the premiere was quite lively.

Walking quickly along the red carpet as usual, little Gilbert met the creators.

Everyone respects him as a great director, especially Orlando Bloom, who is currently struggling with the "The Hobbit" project and naturally hopes that Gilbert Jr. will support him.

"Director Gilbert Jr."

"Orlando, how are you doing recently? I heard you are resuming training?" asked Gilbert Jr.

Orlando Bloom said: "Yes, the skills I learned while filming The Lord of the Rings are no longer good, so I need to pick them up again."

"That's good," Little Gilbert nodded and said, "I've seen the internal preview of Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Your performance is very good and you have made great progress. Keep it up."

"Thank you, director. I will try my best." Orlando Bloom looked delighted.

After Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley also came over to talk. Scarlett looked at Keira Knightley's ordinary figure and nodded with satisfaction. Little Gilbert looked down on such a woman.

After chatting with Keira Knightley, little Gilbert saw Johnny Depp.

This Hollywood weirdo always wears weird clothes even at movie premieres. In public, this is actually very rude.

However, in this country where people pursue freedom, originality and showing their uniqueness, Johnny Depp has won a large number of fans.

Based on this point, people will not care about slight impolite behavior, but it can even bring about topics.

"John, did you go partying again last night?" Little Gilbert asked when he saw Johnny Depp looking dizzy.

Johnny Depp laughed and said, "Hey! Director Gilbert, you have no idea how hot those girls were last night."

Little Gilbert frowned: "Although this is your private life, I still want to remind you to pay attention. Your image is related to the success or failure of the movie, so you need to be extra careful."

Gilbert Jr.'s serious reminder made Johnny Depp serious, and he promised: "I will pay attention, Director Gilbert Jr.."

There is nothing much to say about the movie-watching process. Director Stephen Sommers fulfilled Gilbert Jr.'s requirements very well and made an excellent commercial film. It is worth mentioning that Keen Richards of the Rolling Stones played Captain Jack's father in the film. When Johnny Depp played Captain Jack, the prototype was Keen Richards.

The second and third parts of Pirates of the Caribbean are produced together, just like the second and third parts of The Matrix. The second part will be released this year, and the third part will be released next year depending on the situation.

Judging from the reputation of previous previews, the quality of the film is still quite good.

After the film screening session, Gilbert Jr. asked Scarlett how she felt: "How did it feel?"

Scarlett thought for a moment and replied, "I think it's pretty good. The graphics have improved a lot and the plot is full of highlights. Especially Johnny Depp's performance. No wonder so many people like it."

Gilbert Jr. said: "Johnny Depp took $4000 million from the two films, plus a share of the box office, so it's not unfair to him."

"If the movie continues to be popular, will there be a sequel?" Scarlett asked.

"It's natural. Even if I don't want to do it, Warner and Disney won't miss it."

"You'd better be careful, in case Johnny Depp asks for too much. Now it seems that the film cannot do without his wonderful performance."

Scarlett is right. The last time Johnny Depp played Captain Jack Sparrow, he was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor.

Although this is more of a credit to public relations, it at least proves how popular Captain Jack Sparrow, played by Johnny Depp, is.

Gilbert Jr. naturally knew the importance of Johnny Depp to the series, but he didn't think that he could make Johnny Depp willingly reduce his salary just by asking.

Even if Johnny Depp is willing, there are so many people around him. His agent, friends, and family will not agree.

Sometimes a celebrity is not just a celebrity. A huge interest group can be formed around the celebrity. These interest groups actually suck blood from the celebrities.

You say, how can the stars not know? Of course they know, but stars also need these vampires to satisfy certain needs of their own, such as vanity.

In Hollywood there is a very special profession called celebrity friends. These friends eat, drink and have fun with the celebrities, have fun with women or men, or neither man nor woman, and even have parties with the celebrities.

The role of hangouts is to flatter and make celebrities feel comfortable.

There are many scandals in Hollywood caused by friends. Angelina Jolie's early scandals were all exposed to the media by her friends.

So most people working in Hollywood have some issues with their brains.

Later, Gilbert Jr. accepted another interview with the media and praised the main creators of the crew.

"It's a great team, they've done a great job," Gilbert said. "It's an interesting thing.

Stephen told me that when the crew was filming in the Dominican Republic, just solving the food problem was a big problem.

There were 600 crew members going to the Dominican Republic, and more than 400 people were hired locally in the Dominican Republic.

For this island country that embodies the Caribbean style of 200 years ago, the filming of the movie has made the local area very lively.

在重要的拍摄日，饮食部门要为780至840人准备一日三餐，仅早餐就需要1100至1500枚鸡蛋、100至160磅熏肉、80条面包、50磅香肠、10多箱水果等等。

All food, except for those grown in the Dominican Republic, is shipped in from the United States.

Just for the dietary issue, the crew made tremendous efforts to ensure the completion of the film.

Here, I want to express my respect to the crew and hope that everyone will like this movie."

The premiere ended in a lively manner, with considerable media attention.

Perhaps it was because of the previous film, or perhaps it was because the film was indeed well-made, but after its release, the film burst out with incredible energy.
