Edward Norton is an excellent actor, and there is no doubt that whether it is the "fighting club" that is sought after by countless movie fans, the "First Level Fear" and "American X-Files" that have won the Oscar nomination, or the unique style of "The Kingdom of the Moon Rising", "Birdman", and "The Grand Hotel in Budapest", these outstanding works prove his talent and ability.

Unfortunately, in the "Invincible Hulk" of the previous life, Edward had almost no room for play. Even Bruce Banner's loneliness and struggle were not shown. Instead, he exposed Edward's weak scholar's temperament during the escape, and seemed out of place. This was undoubtedly a major failure for director Louis.

In fact, the bookish temperament of Bruce and the violent and madness after transforming into the Hulk can be said to be the dual nature of ice and fire. This huge difference can further highlight Bruce's inner struggle, highlighting his eagerness to get rid of the Hulk, and the visual impact it brings to the audience is also exponential. From this perspective, the third version of the Hulk, Mark Ruffalo, Edward Norton and Eric Barner have more or less possessed this temperament, and there is no big problem with the casting itself. Unfortunately, Louis was unable to make clever use of this.

What's more, Edward once played a racial discriminator in the "American X Archives", and his image of a cold and bloody perpetrator was impressive. In that work, Edward's temperament changes without any sense of incongruity, and the character is presented seamlessly. This also shows that Edward has the ability to interpret a tough character, but this is not seen in "Invincible Hulk".

From a performance perspective, there is no problem with Edward playing the role of "Invincible Hulk". He has enough ability to meet the requirements of Lance; but from a genre film perspective, Edward needs to do more training - not simply training muscles, but making the escape moves look more handsome, and even if he escapes in a mess, he must have more photogenic effects. This is crucial for superhero movies.

A simple example of comparison is Matt Damon, who is "spy-filmed" and Ben Affleck, who is "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice", both of them both train muscles. Matt is just right and even looks a little thin, but this refinement is vividly displayed in the sharp action scenes; but Ben has been a little overtrained and looks too strong, so that after he appears on camera, he looks a little fat and has difficulty moving. Many action scenes even look extremely clumsy, which seriously affects the viewing effect.

What Edward needs is not muscle, but flexibility, especially the running movements and the neat fighting movements, presenting the temperament of Indiana Jones that combines the elegance of professors and heroic elegance.

Maybe he should have asked Edward to have a detailed discussion and exchange their opinions. Although the two are friends and have maintained similar views in movies, performances, dramas, etc., the two have never cooperated. Moreover, Edward, like Lance, is an almost stubborn person who insists on meeting himself. Such cooperation is either an agreement, smooth sailing, or a disagreement, and they have to have a good conversation. Therefore, they need to have a good conversation.

From Edward, Lance also recalled the choice of two characters Betty and Brosky. In the previous life, the two characters were played by Liv Tyler and Tim Ross respectively.

In Lance's view, these two castings are not a mistake, but they are far from successful. Although acting is part of it, the more important reason is that the actors are not able to match the character's temperament. As an actor with praiseworthy acting skills, Tim seems out of place with the cold-blooded and crazy Brosky, and even some of them are out of the way. It is not that he lacks acting skills, but that neither the director nor the actor is looking for a correct entry point; Liv's role as Betty is not even a vase, and the whole film process seems to be free, and some scenes are even a bit redundant, which is absolutely fatal to a genre movie. Even as a vase, the heroine should become a beautiful landscape in popcorn-

What impressed Lance the most was "King Kong". Putting aside the quality of the movie, Naomi Watts' white dress flickering on the Empire State Building has a magnificence and tragic tragedy of Shakespeare, which really adds a lot of color to the movie. But in "Invincible Hulk", Liv spent most of her time on shirts and jeans, as if the stylist and director had no communication at all.

A truly excellent movie is crucial.

If Lance casts, it is certain that he will not choose Liv and Tim. As for the specific candidates, he needs to reconceive and think carefully after the script is completed.

The script creation process of "Invincible Hulk" is indeed exciting, but the speed of advancement is not fast at all. Lance must consider every detail, especially the rhythm control of the script, not to mention that the script's script also needs to be conceived and struck out in one word. The workload is so high that it is no less than the shooting period of "Rampant Road".

This creative process actually reminded Lance of the time when he wrote the "City of God". Even when he was away, even when he met friends, even when he was working, he would record it as soon as he could flash his inspiration in his mind. It seemed that the whole brain revolved around the story and the characters, and there would be wonderful ideas from time to time. The characters' images came to life in the mind, as if they were given life.

It was like now that he came to the coffee house thirty minutes in advance, and there was a meeting at a time, but suddenly he thought of some details and couldn't wait to start recording.

"Hey, see who this is. Isn't this Lancelot?" A voice rang in his ear, with a hint of excitement in his joy, but Lance did not look up, but raised his left hand and made a stop gesture, and then continued to focus on the toilet paper he found quickly to record something. The attitude as if no one else was around made Kevin Feige a little embarrassed.

He glanced at the toilet paper secretly, but unfortunately he couldn't see the sloppy handwriting clearly. Kevin could only pursed his dry lips and sat down carefully opposite Lance, looking left and right. The waiter cast a gaze from afar and planned to come to provide services. Kevin looked at Lance, blocking the waiter's movements, and letting his breathing lightly, for fear of interrupting Lance's work.

After a while, Lance sat up straight and quickly scanned the toilet paper. After confirming that the inspiration that had just passed by had not been missed, he folded the toilet paper and stuffed it into his pocket. Then he noticed Kevin sitting opposite him, "Kevin, when did you arrive?" Obviously, Lance didn't realize what was happening just now, it was just a subconscious action.

Kevin originally wanted to explain, but his words circled around the tip of his tongue and shook his head, "Just just sat down." He waved and shouted to the waiter, "Give me a latte, and a black forest..." Kevin looked at the table in front of Lance, with only a cup of lonely coffee, "Do you need some food?"

Lance nodded and said to the waiter, "Thank you a piece of tiramisu."

After watching the waiter turn and leave, Kevin gestured to the direction of Lance's pocket with his eyes, "So, are you still busy lately?"

"Screen, I'm still busy with Marvel's scripts." Lance said simply. There is no doubt that the Marvel Universe is now the core focus of Lance's work.

"Oh, the script." Kevin's face immediately showed a bright smile. "I must say, the script is really great. You know, the cartoonists in our company have read the script, Stan-lee, Larry-lieber, Jack-kirby, etc. We all think you have done an excellent job, wonderful, really wonderful!"

Kevin was not stingy with his praise. Five days ago, Lance sent the first draft of the script of "Iron Man" to Marvel Studios. The draft of the script was circulated within the company. Surprisingly, it won the unanimous praise from the Creative Committee. There were some pure comic details similar to the Iron Man armor setting that needed to be modified. As for the plot, characters, main line and other parts, there was no problem at all. This is definitely the first time - you know, even "Spider-Man" has won the box office and reputation, the Creative Committee has quite a complaint, because Sony Pictures has eliminated many of the comics in order to cater to the public.

Although Lance is famous and the two Oscar-winning screenwriter Jin Ren can tell his abilities in his hands; the script of "Iron Man" is still eye-catching, which is really good news for Kevin. The cooperation between Marvel Studios and Chaos Pictures is one step closer.

"I was on the phone with Theo this morning, and we have reached a preliminary consensus. The two companies will work together to shoot this work, with an investment cost of between 100 million and 150 million. In addition to the copyright of the work adaptation, Marvel Studios will also pay part of the cost to invest in the shooting. We will hold a meeting to discuss the specific situation in depth." While Lance was busy with the script, Kevin and Theo also had a lot of contact. Now the most important obstacle for the two sides to cooperate in filming "Iron Man" has been resolved. It can be foreseen that the next negotiations will go very smoothly. "So, have you made a decision? Are you planning to play the role of Tony Stark in person? In my opinion, no one is more suitable than you!"

Kevin's tone obviously became relaxed, and things went well beyond imagination.
