Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 776-Someone is very worried
The crew of "The Mystery of Troubled Waters" is having a great time on the island of Mauritius.

The crew of "Criminal Investigation Season 6" is scratching their heads in the Big Apple.

The "Criminal Investigations" series was originally planned to produce eight seasons + a prequel, and creator Jonathan Nolan completed the story framework of the seventh season in October 2015.

As a result, after the fifth season was released, Warner Bros. and CBS had irreconcilable differences over issues such as viewership and advertising revenue sharing.

This caused Warner Bros. to announce in anger that it would stop renewing the series.

The "Criminal Investigations" series came to an abrupt end in the fifth season, leaving many viewers extremely confused and puzzled. They wrote to the official email address of the crew to inquire about the reason.

Some fans even surrounded Jonathan Nolan and demanded an explanation and future arrangements from him.

At that time, Jonathan Nolan was preparing a new project inspired by his wife, so he did not make any commitment. It remains a mystery whether the "Criminal Investigations" series can be revived.

Last November, Netflix and Lionsgate teamed up to secure the copyright and prepared to continue the series.

At the same time, the film assures the audience that the original cast will be brought back as much as possible, but due to the deaths of the characters played by Taraji, Caviezel, and Amy Acker, certain adjustments have to be made.

John Reese and Officer Carter can only appear in flashback scenes.

Jim Caviezel just happens to not have the time to revisit his old dream. His uncle is switching careers to become a producer and has begun to participate in the administrative management of the "Westworld" crew.

Similarly, Taraji P. Henson, who plays Officer Carter, is filming the series Empire.

Amy Acker was limited by the death of her character and could only transform into a "machine" to participate in subsequent episodes to help the protagonist team continue to prevent or disrupt crimes.

When Jonathan Nolan revised the script this year, he deliberately made Amy, Sarah and Chen Yu play ambiguity.

In the second half of the fifth season, Sarah gradually awakens her normal emotional perception. Faced with Amy, who has changed a lot, she wants to continue her love, but feels that "machines" cannot replace roots.

On the contrary, through constant contact, he began to feel attracted to Chen Yu and wanted to get to know this new partner better.

But she was worried that one day Chen Yu would die tragically in the street like Gen.

The emotional scenes in the sixth season are mainly supported by Sarah, Amy and Chen Yu.

Sarah and Amy had relatively heavy tasks. Chen Yu was responsible for cooperating with the two sisters in the performance. According to the script, he would only occasionally rush to the front alone to lead the rhythm.

In fact, Jonathan Nolan has been very considerate of Chen Yu. Nearly 80% of the emotional scenes in the script have been replaced or deleted. After all, the latter is not good at interpreting these.

Amy has appeared in the same frame with Chen Yu five or six times this year. Although she only appeared as a guest star, the two of them more or less developed a tacit understanding during this period.

Sarah, a direct descendant of the Iranian royal family, has never had any contact with Chen Yu.

Sarah's only knowledge of Chen Yu was that he was a world boxing champion, and the movie "Knives Out" was indeed exciting enough for her to watch it again and again.

So when Sarah got the script, she was worried about the emotional entanglement scenes between herself and Chen Yu.

The first five seasons of "Criminal Investigations" received rave reviews, partly because the creative team wrote the emotional scenes very restrainedly and did not exaggerate the audience.

In the sixth season, Nolan slightly changed his style. Sarah didn't know how the audience would evaluate it after it was aired.

To be honest, Sarah didn't think she could cooperate well with Chen Yu in the ambiguous scenes. Born in the early 1980s, she is almost 40 years old.

No matter how perfect the makeup is, it cannot make up for the age gap. Sarah suggested that the creative team reconsider and not force the characters to create a sense of contrast.

After thinking about it for a few days, Abrams, the director and producer of the sixth season, also felt that the suggestion made some sense.

It looks like Jonathan Nolan is still immersed in the Westworld series.

When revising the script, we also referred to the framework of "Westworld" and added some flesh to it.

If the ambiguous scenes between Sarah, Chen Yu and Amy are separated, then another actress will have to join the cast. Kick-Ass star Chloë Grace Moretz (21 years old) and Hannah Dakota Fanning (24 years old) are both interested in starring in "Who's Who".

But these two are only willing to sign for one season and refuse long-term contracts. Sarah, Amy and others are all willing to sign for two seasons or more.

As for Kevin Chapman, he sold himself to this series.

Currently, Jonathan Nolan prefers to sign Kick-Ass Moretz, while Hannah Dakota Fanning is attracting Abrams' attention.

Moretz won because she had worked briefly with Chen Yu and she was a fan of the former.

Netflix hopes that Abrams will consider actresses from South Korea, Japan, or Chinese actresses, which will help Netflix open up the East Asian market.

Netflix has basically lost hope and fantasy about entering the Chinese market.

However, moderately inviting Chinese artists to join its dramas can consolidate Netflix's bottom-line ratings share and audience base in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

Lionsgate doesn't want to allow Korean or Japanese actresses or artists to join the crew and mess things up, so it would be better to sell them the overseas remake rights.

The Korean version of "Knives Out" has been completed and is expected to be officially released around Christmas.

Currently, the leading male and female actors Koo Kyo-hwan and Lim Yoona are intensively promoting this work.

The last time Chen Yu went to Seoul on a business trip, he was invited to participate in a variety show with Yoona Lin to help promote and cheer for the Korean version of "Knives Out".

Chen Yu was eager to finish filming the commercial and go home to look after his wife and children, so he simply turned down the invitation.

However, Lotte Productions and Display Cabinet Productions did not give up and used various channels and connections to lobby Chen Yu to help.

As a result, Chen Yu will have to find time to go to Seoul again in the near future.

The crew of "Mystery Tracking" is currently mainly worried about how to coordinate the schedules of the main actors.

Chen Yu has "Berlin Intelligence Station Season 1" waiting to be filmed, and at the same time he has to take into account the preparations for the second season of "Knives Out".

The script for the second part of "Knives Out" has been finalized. Chen Yu will not only continue to be the male lead, but will also invest a sum of money in this work, about 50 million US dollars.

Dilraba Dilmurat Studio provides an overview of offline promotional activities in three East Asian countries.

Of course, when it comes to a specific place, the model of subcontracting at all levels is still implemented.

Subcontracting at various levels is a tradition of publicity and marketing among the three East Asian countries. Once something goes wrong and accountability is sought, the overall party can do its best to share and absorb its own problems.

In any case, European and American companies have no chance of winning lawsuits in the three East Asian countries.

Similarly, Korean and Japanese companies have also been cheated by their European and American counterparts.

At 3 o'clock this afternoon, Abrams, the director, producer and director of "Criminal Investigation", will fly to Mauritius.

Li Zheng prompted Chen Yu to take a week to practice with other actors and work with the new script to get a feel for the role.

Also ask him whether he would rather partner with Moretz or with Fanning.

Or maybe Chen Yu has his own candidate, and Abrams will consider it.

For example, if the new Bond girl Anna can join the crew, Nolan promises to be willing to change the script!

Emma Roberts is also possible, but this young lady has no suitable schedule from October this year to March next year.

Lily Collins seems to be interested in returning to the small screen.
