Entertainment: God-level director

Chapter 205

The next afternoon.

Lin Ran came to Ranmeng Pictures and went directly to Wang Ziwen’s office.

“Lin Ran, there is news from the United States that the preliminary preparations for the”Return of the Clown” project are almost complete.”

Wang Ziwen said before Lin Ran could sit down.

“Do you want to direct it yourself or hire another director?”

Lin Ran did not rush to answer, but began to think deeply.

To be honest, he was not very interested in horror movies, but considering the huge success of”The Return of the Clown”, it would be a pity not to direct it himself.

You know, in the past life The director who directed this film, Anders Muschietti, had basically no movies to film before”The Return of the Clown”. In addition to three short films in the past 20 years, he has only directed one full-length film, also with a small budget. horror film.

But after the success of”The Return of the Clown”, Anders Muschietti was immediately spotted by Warner Bros. and directly signed 5 film contracts.

In addition to”The Return of the Clown 2″, there are also Including”The Flash”,”Battlestar”,”Attack on Titan”,”Time Machine” and other four major investment science fiction films.

It can be seen that the film”The Return of the Clown” has a positive impact on the career of director Anders Muschietti. How big!

If you direct it yourself and have this movie that is a huge success all over the world, you will be able to gain a group of fans in other countries, and you will not be completely unknown in Western countries when”Super Body” is released.

You know , other countries are not like our country. As long as a foreign movie is imported, it can get at least about 10% of the film schedule.

However, if the production team of imported movies from other countries is not well-known, then dozens of theaters will open the movie when it is released. It is basically impossible to get much box office.

This is why a Chinese-language film can be released in the United States, but if American theaters do not schedule films, it is basically the same as not being released.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran decided Said:”I will direct it myself. This movie is a familiar one to me for”Super Body””

“Are you even that good at horror movies?”

Wang Ziwen asked jokingly

“Although it is a horror film, it generally belongs to the category of commercial films, and its essence has not changed. As long as you grasp the core elements of horror films, it is not too difficult. Lin

Ran smiled and said

“Well, I hope you will also make a hit in the field of horror films.”

Wang Ziwen nodded in understanding. With her previous success, she had already blindly trusted Lin Ran, so she stopped asking any more questions.

“That is required. Lin

Ran smiled mischievously, and then said:”I have already written the script of”Super Body”, but now I have to direct”The Return of the Clown”. I don’t have time to draw the storyboard script, so I will leave it to others.” The storyboard artist will do the drawing, and there are other preliminary preparations that you can start.

《”The Return of the Clown” is just a horror film, and I plan to only be responsible for the directing part. I will leave other editing and other editing to professional people in Hollywood, so it can be completed in two months at most. The preliminary preparations here are probably almost done, so there is no need to waste time.”

“Well, I will set up the project immediately.”

Wang Ziwen nodded.

After talking about the matter, Lin Ran returned to his office and thought about the casting of”Super Body”.

Other preliminary preparations can be handed over, but he must personally control the casting.

The heroine is undoubtedly The original choice for the important role of Dilraba and Professor Norman was Morgan Freeman.

But Lin Ran was a little worried that the MEETOO incident that would break out next year and sweep the entire Hollywood would happen as scheduled, and in this incident, Morgan Freeman Liman was also involved in it, and there was a big fuss.

At that time, under the extreme political correctness, if Morgan Freeman appears, it will definitely have a great impact on the movie.

In order to avoid the possible consequences Risky, Lin Ran plans to replace this famous black actor and replace him with Will Smith.

Why choose another black actor?

The reason is simple, just fight for it.

If you want to win the box office in the United States , there are certain political principles that must be followed when striving for them, although he is also very disgusted with this kind of political correctness.

Next is Mr. Zhang, the leader of the hey gang. In the original version, this role was played by South Korea’s Choi Min-sik. Lin Ran planned to replace him with a domestic actor, such as Wang Yanhui, who had collaborated with him in”I’m Not the God of Medicine”, was more suitable for this role.

But in the end, Lin Ran decided to continue to let South Korean actors star, so that he could win more box office in South Korea.

However, he replaced Cui Minzhi with Song Kanghao, who told him that the South Korean actor he wanted to work with the most in RM was Song Kanghao.

Of course, Song Kanghao meets the requirements in terms of image and acting skills, and his appeal is not weak. With him The box office for starring in South Korea should be guaranteed.

After these three important roles are confirmed, Lin Ran is not going to choose the other roles with less roles himself, and will just leave it to the casting director.

That night.

A high-end restaurant, in a private room

“Have you received the script? Lin

Ran looked at Dilraba opposite and asked with a smile.

“Yes, received.”

Dilraba nodded and said with some surprise:”I have watched some and like the setting of the heroine very much. I have always wanted to make a modern action movie.”

“You are tall and have long legs, so you will look great in action scenes. Lin

Ran said with a smile.

In his previous life, he had seen a set of Sprite advertisements shot by Dilraba Dilraba. Her agent style left a very deep impression on Lin Ran. She was very handsome, simply cool and beautiful.

This is also Lin Ran immediately thought of the reason why Dilraba Dilraba could star in”Super Body”

“This movie is shot according to the Hollywood model and will invite many international actors. The most important supporting role will be played by Will Smith. It will also be released in many countries around the world, so you need to do physical and movement training in advance. When shooting, you have to do it yourself, rather than hiring a stand-in. Lin

Ran said solemnly.

It has to be said that in terms of actor professionalism, Hollywood actors in general are inferior to those in China.

Even those top names in the 20 million club, in action scenes, as long as they are not particularly dangerous, they are almost They all do it themselves, and often train for several months in advance.

In China, most of the current action scenes are performed by martial arts.

Even in the filming of TV series, there are various All kinds of substitutes, as long as the real face is not shown, just find various substitutes to shoot

“Well, I will.”

Seeing Lin Ran’s solemn words, Dilraba also became serious.

After dinner, Lin Ran drove Dilraba back to Courtyard No. 1, and the project of”Super Body” was approved, and it was also a global blockbuster. The news quickly spread within the circle, instantly attracting all parties to take action.
