Chapter 660 Prejudice is also reliable
Like the previous time, Coty Horn was very direct and said, "I heard that you bought Marvel and reorganized Marvel Entertainment, and are preparing for the Iron Man project?"
Ronan roughly guessed what she was going to: "Yes."
Kotie Horn laughed out a pair of rabbit teeth and said, "Can I come and play with a role?"
Ronan said directly: "You are too young and not suitable for the heroine. In the setting, he is a more mature working woman. Keti, your shrewdness and compulsiveness are very suitable, but the age gap is too big."
"Yes." Coty Horn was not disappointed. She played the role more out of interest and immediately changed her mind: "Where is the supporting role? Like "Mean Girl", can you find a small supporting role? It doesn't matter if you don't, I just want to enjoy the drama."
Ronan did not answer directly, but recalled it. It seemed that Coty Horn performed well in "Mean Girl". According to the evaluation of Shahai Entertainment, the score could be around 70%.
This is pretty good for young actresses, especially the guest appearances.
Ronan thought for a while and said, "There should be a small supporting role. This way, I asked the assistant to say hello to the producer Kevin Feige. You go to the crew to see what specific role it is, I can't just interfere directly."
Anyway, there will be no shortage of young female characters in the movie "Iron Man".
There are many small characters like female reporters, flight attendants and drink girls.
Kotie Horn was very smart and stopped at the right time, without much intention, and said, "Thank you, Ronan." Her voice lowered slightly: "It's up to you, I can live up to the play, I really don't know how to thank you."
Ronan smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Kotie Horn said again: "I'll treat you to a meal when you have time."
Rona waved her hand: "You really don't have to be so polite."
Coty-Hone said seriously: "You have to let me express it?"
"I might ask you to help you in the future." Luo Nan was not polite.
"No problem." Coty Horn was also generous: "If you need me, just say it."
Ronan nodded and changed the topic: "Do you still write the script?"
"I wrote a few, but I was not very satisfied." Ketie Horn said the truth: "Last time you reminded me, I became much more awake. Writing scripts is not easy. I especially studied for a while, but I found that what I wrote was a mess. After graduating from West Lake High School, I went to the California Institute of Art to study."
Ronan asked: "Plan to develop towards screenwriters?"
Kotie Horn thought carefully and said, "No. It's the same as acting, just interested. If you like it, do it. If you don't want to do it, give up."
With her family background, she does have such capital.
Hearing these words, Ronan couldn't help but think of the director of "The Hornet", and he could only say that some things really can't be envious.
The script for Transformers has begun to be written, the project will be launched soon, and a suitable director is needed.
Ronan considered and invited James Cameron, but James Cameron refused. After filming and producing "Deep Sea Alien", the King of the World entered the laboratory to study and improve the new 3D shooting and production technology, completely interrupting the contact with the outside world.
Then there is Michael Bay.
From a commercial perspective, Michael Bay is very suitable, a director who can always shoot great productions with excellent commercial effects at a relatively low cost.
But Michael Bay's problem is well known.
There is also the director of "The Hornet", which Ronan specifically understands. Talawes Knight has just entered the Lycra animation studio and served as an assistant director and assistant producer for Tim Burton on the crew of "The Ghost Bride". His practical experience is better than nothing.
Talawes Knight's dad hasn't bought the Lycra animation studio yet.
If Talawes Knight is invited to serve as the director of "Transformers" at this time, the success or failure of the project will be second. The real problem is that if the movie fails and Talawes Knight has to go home to inherit tens of billions of property, it would be a tragedy...
It makes people feel sad when thinking about it.
Ronan cannot let this tragedy happen. The tragic fate of returning home to inherit tens of billions of property should not have happened to Talawes Knight.
"Transformers" is still time to be launched, and Ronan still has to consider who the director invites.
Of course, from the perspective of maximizing business interests and minimizing risk coefficients, Michael Bay is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
In addition, the copyright of Hasbro's "Special Forces" series is also in the hands of Shahai Entertainment. Since the Special Forces and Transformers once appeared in the same world in the comics, Ronan is also considering whether to place the two in the same universe to create the "Transformers" universe.
But how to measure the strength of both sides is a major difficulty.
You can't let the Duke kill a Decepticon just by playing alone, and the snake jumps out and cuts the Megatron or Red Spider, right?
Ronan joked: "Sometimes I think about it, I envy you."
"Envy me?" Coty-Horne shook his head: "What do I have to envy? Many people say that I am drunk and dreaming of death and have no pursuit."
She said seriously: "After a while, I may have to support myself as work."
Ronan understood the meaning of this. The failure of "Catwoman" had a great negative impact. Warner Bros., especially the senior executives of the Pictures, needed someone to be responsible for this. Kevin Tessulhara used the advantage of power to successfully pass the blame. Coty Horn's father Allen Horn unfortunately became the first person to take the blame. The position of the president of the Pictures Company will definitely not be able to be saved and is already handling all matters of resignation.
Relativity Entertainment has a lot of cooperation with Warner Bros. Ronan knows some related situations.
He asked, "How is your father's side?"
Kotie Horn shrugged slightly: "It's not that way, the islanders are too treacherous."
Ronan asked directly: "Where is the new job?"
Coty Horn has always been very relaxed, and the facts are like hers: "Water Disney has sent an invitation to my father to take over Tony Close as CEO of Disney Pictures."
Ronan instantly remembered the answer from this casual chat. Allen Horn actually wanted to join Disney Pictures!
"This position is not easy to do," said Ronan. "Disney Pictures has achieved average results in recent years."
Kotie Horn smiled and said, "I don't know much about this either."
Ronan did not continue this topic. After saying a few words, he picked up the phone and dialed Kevin Feige in front of Coty Horn, and briefly explained the situation.
This kind of small role that is not much better than a cameo appearance, there were no strict requirements for the selection of actors. Kotie Horn also had the performance of "Mean Girl" as a precedent, so naturally there was no problem.
Coty Horn quickly said goodbye and left, saying that he was going back to prepare for the audition.
Ronan has worked with Coty Horn once and knows that even if she is a guest star, she is very professional and serious.
These are the basic requirements for filming. Most actors, even big-name actors, will take a long time to prepare before starting filming.
For example, Robert Downey Jr. has already started to work out for the shooting of fitness.
The film market in North America is relatively mature. If you want to become popular for a longer time, you also need to work hard.
After all, watching movies requires money to buy tickets and time to go to the theater. For viewers, the cost of fraud or buying traffic on the Internet is much higher.
It is easy to fake traffic on the Internet, but the cost of fake movies is much higher. Some celebrities who claim to have tens of millions and hundreds of millions of fans can use the box office to divide the box office by the ticket price to see how many fans there are at a glance.
Besides, how many of them are meant to see how bad the audience is?
But Brother Bao had the courage to go to the boxing ring to challenge in order to defend his reputation as the "No. 1 director in bad movies".
For some people, it is too dangerous to star in movies before boxing is done well...
The competition in the film market is fierce and cruel, and there is no need for any department or other related parties to take action. The fierce competition in the film market will naturally eliminate some movies and related personnel.
When layers of artificially created glamorousness are stripped away by ruthless market competition, the consequences are not much different from the collapse of the character. If the relevant personnel cannot bring back enough returns, they will naturally be downgraded.
Having said that, some bad movies can win by marketing, but when the whole nation begins to hate a special star group, the more crazy marketing it will increase the public's disgust.
To be honest, there are indeed those actors in the world who are very talented without hard work, but unfortunately they are not the group.
The prejudice in people's hearts is often an insurmountable mountain, but this mountain is also reliable.
In August, the North American box office of "Batman: The Moment of War" quickly exceeded 150 million US dollars, and the film was released in more than 50 overseas markets. With the help of North America's good reputation and box office effects, coupled with the world-class popularity that Batman itself has, the overseas box office will soon be close to 150 million US dollars.
By the time the first weekend was over in August, the global box office of the film had already reached $312.03 million.
At the same time, "The God of Death 3" was out of stock after only five weeks in North America, and the box office in North America remained above $85.95 million.
Death will not leave here. "Death is Coming 4" will start preparations on time in the second half of the year, and James Huang will return and continue to serve as the director of the series.
But this time, James Huang will also serve as the producer.
Ronan basically gave the director completely the power to the mature routine series "The God of Death".
Meanwhile, the North American box office of "Wedding Producer" exceeded $250 million.
But the film's overseas response was mediocre, with the overseas box office just exceeding US$100 million.
