Chapter 1939 1941 [Giant Pit]
"Daredevil", Xiang Nan plans to invite Ben Affleck to star.
Ben Affleck was born in 1972 and made his debut in 1979. In 1990, he cooperated with Xiang Nan in "Honey, I Shrunk the Children" and achieved very good results.
Ben Affleck also got more performance opportunities because of this, and his development in the past few years is still very good. He has successively starred in "School", "Buffy the Vampire Hunter", "Youth and Confusion", "The Cool People" and so on. Now he is one of the new generation of actors, who is quite eye-catching.
The reason why Xiang Nan invited him was because he was tall and handsome, and he was more suitable to play Daredevil. On the one hand, he also has potential worth investing in.
Ben Affleck can write, direct and act, and "Good Will Hunting" with Matt Damon won nine nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor .
The "Escape from Tehran" directed by myself also won the Oscar for Best Picture. He himself has also been nominated for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor many times.
Through these awards, it can be seen that Ben Affleck is still very capable.
The heroine of "Daredevil", Xiang Nan is going to be selected through auditions, trying to choose a young, beautiful, capable actress.

"Jedi Men" is a police action movie. Originally a movie starring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith, it tells the story of two Miami police officers who were ordered to investigate the disappearance of artifacts and fight wits with criminals.
This movie not only has a tense plot and grand scenes, but also the biggest highlight is that Martin Lawrence and Will Smith's gags and bickering jokes add a touch of light-hearted humor to this exciting police film. Entertaining.
Xiang Nan is still planning to star in the movie with Martin Lawrence and Will Smith. After all, apart from them, it is hard for him to think of anyone else who can replace them.
The heroine is Claudia Schiffer. This role has little playing time and doesn't have too many important roles. It's basically just a vase. Claudia Schiffer can still complete the role.
…
"Interview with the Vampire" is a movie co-starred by Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, and it is also known as one of the most beautiful movies in history.
This movie is also adapted from the original work of the same name. It is about the love and hatred between three vampires, and it is actually a literary film.
But because of the blessing of the two superstars, this "Interview with the Vampire" still achieved great success. With a global box office of 230 million US dollars, it is definitely a blockbuster.
In addition to Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, Xiang Nan recommends Natalie Portman as a candidate for the little vampire.
With her appearance and acting skills, I believe she will be more suitable than Kristen Dunst.
…
"Apollo XIII" is adapted from historical facts. When the Apollo 13 moon landing spacecraft exploded, the three astronauts used their wisdom to return home safely under the extremely difficult environment.
This created a miracle in the history of spaceflight. It was also a sensation in the past. It is the memory of countless Americans, and it is also an event that has been included in history.
So putting it on the screen now will definitely get a lot of attention. In fact, after the film was released, it achieved great success. Not only did it explode in word of mouth, it was nominated for nine Oscars, and it also achieved a box office of 350 million US dollars worldwide.
…
As for Xiang Nan himself, he is preparing to shoot "Vapor Secret Order".
It was originally starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, with a global box office of nearly 360 million US dollars. It is a very successful action blockbuster.
For such a successful movie, Xiang Nan naturally tightened his grip on himself first.
As for the heroine, Xiang Nan hasn't considered it yet.
He wanted to choose as many new faces as possible, so as to bring more freshness to the audience.
Otherwise, always working with acquaintances will really give you a sense of déjà vu.
After all, he has played too many police officers before, and he is almost becoming a professional police officer.
…
In addition, Xiang Nan plans to ask Monica Bellucci and Sophie Marceau to co-star in The Wachowski Brothers' "Flowers".
Both of them are beauties, and working together is guaranteed to be interesting. In real life, they also worked together once. That was "Don't Look Back" which they co-starred in in 2009.
But at that time, Sophie Marceau was already forty-three years old, and Monica Bellucci was also forty-five years old.
And now they are at their most beautiful, I believe that just seeing the two of them doing lace is worth the fare.
…
In February, Universal released "Bridges of Madison County," starring Kevin Costner and Michelle Pfeiffer.
Last year, when Xiang Nan invited Kevin Costner to star in this film, he was still preparing to shoot "Water World" with the support of Columbia Pictures.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan persuaded him and invited him to star in "The Bridge of Madison County". For the sake of previous cooperation, Kevin Costner accepted Xiang Nan's invitation and turned down Columbia Pictures' "Future Water World".
Seeing this, Columbia Pictures hired Sylvester Stallone, who had just turned salty. As a result, the production process of this drama can be described as twists and turns, with constant troubles.
Because "Future Water World" builds the scene on the sea, and the sea is moody. Strong winds, huge waves, heavy rain...I don't know when it will come.
The set at sea alone was blown down by strong winds three times and had to be rebuilt. As a result, the cost is greatly increased.
Columbia Pictures originally invested 60 million U.S. dollars, which was considered a big cost at the time. However, due to the damage of the background, an additional 30 million U.S. dollars was added, which is close to a 100 million investment.
Coupled with the harsh environment in Shanghai, many actors suffered from nausea, diarrhea and other discomfort symptoms, which also delayed the progress of the filming. The film that was originally thought to be finished in three months has not been finished after six months.
Stallone complained that the experience of making this movie was as miserable as living in hell. So Kevin Costner is very glad that he didn't take this drama, and thanked Xiang Nan for it.
After the launch of "The Bridge of Madison County", the box office and word of mouth are very good.
The North American box office is 80 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is 180 million U.S. dollars.
Kevin Costner and Michelle Pfeiffer both showed their extraordinary acting skills with this film, and at the same time declared their amazing box office appeal.
