Chapter 2043 2045 [Gal Gadot]
"The role you want to play is the Black Widow in "Iron Man 2", Natasha Romanoff." Xiang Nan said afterwards.
The original version of Black Widow was played by Scarlett Johansson, and she also completed the role very well. The Black Widow she plays is sexual, beautiful, intelligent, and brave. She is a beautiful woman with a variety of charms and fascinated thousands of men, but also a strong-willed and well-trained heroine.
It's just that Xiang Nan didn't intend to let her take the role. The reason is actually very simple, that is, Scarlett Johansson's salary is too high.
Now she has become a first-line movie star in Hollywood by starring in "Tomb Raider", "The Nanny Diary", "Midnight in Barcelona", "The Prestige" and other movies, with a salary of more than five million US dollars.
The Black Widow is an important role in the Marvel Avengers universe, and she needs to appear in a lot of movies, and she is the heroine in many movies.
Therefore, her salary accumulation will be very high. If the pay for the first part was $5 million, then the pay for the last part may rise to more than $25 million. Coupled with the box office dividends, it is very possible for a movie to take away 100 million US dollars.
But if Gal Gadot is used, the salary for the first film is only 50,000 US dollars, and even if it increases later, it will not be too outrageous. This saves a lot of money.
Moreover, Gal Gadot's conditions are very good. He was born as a beauty pageant champion and has also worked as a model. His appearance, figure, and temperament are impeccable.
Especially as a soldier who has served in the army, he is a person who has held a gun seriously. It is really suitable to play the role of agent Natasha Romanov.
…
"Are you familiar with this character?" Xiang Nan asked again.
Gal Gadot shook his head. She was born in Hebrew, and she hadn't read any superhero comics since she was a child, and she didn't know who the Black Widow was.
"But don't worry, I will hurry up and buy the manga to read." She said again immediately.
"Well, in short, she is a former Soviet agent who was absorbed by S.H.I.E.L.D. after the collapse of the Soviet Union and became a member of the Avengers.
She is beautiful, sexual, smart, and brave. She is the embellishment and glue in the team, and has ambiguous relationships with many heroes. Xiang Nan simply explained, "I think you are very suitable for this role." "
"Yes, I think so too." Gadot laughed. She is also **** and beautiful. As for being smart and brave, she can also act.
"Very good." Xiang Nan nodded, "However, you can't be too complacent. You have many competitors, like Scarlett Johansson, January Jones, Jessica Alba, Megan Fox And Alexandra Daddario and others are interested in playing this role, so you have to work harder."
"Yes, Mr. Charles, I will definitely work hard." When Gal Gadot heard this, he really started to get nervous.
The actresses mentioned by Xiang Nan all follow the sexual route, and their appearance, figure, temperament, and fame are all better than her.
Especially Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba are big stars. To compete with them, I really have to work hard.
"I also hope you can help me more." Jia Duo looked at Xiang Nan again and asked for help.
"Don't worry, I will help you." Xiang Nan patted her knee with a smile and said.
…
It is about the greedy and indiscriminate construction of nuclear power plants by human beings, and the breeding of Muto, a monster who specializes in eating nuclear materials, causing fatal disasters. Fortunately, the ancient behemoth Godzilla rushed to hear the news, and the couple fought fiercely with Muto, and the world returned to a better place.
The story of this movie is a remake of the 1954 version of "Godzilla". Although the story is a bit older, but with the addition of new special effects technology, the scene looks better than the version more than 50 years ago.
Especially the scene where Godzilla fights the two Mutos is even more shocking, bringing the audience the most passionate and passionate movie-watching experience.
Therefore, the box office performance of this movie is not bad. In the end, the North American box office was 180 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was 420 million U.S. dollars.
Compared with the investment of 140 million US dollars, it is already very good.
…
In the same month, the relationship between Xiang Nan and Gal Gadot achieved a breakthrough.
Although the whole world now knows that he is married, this will not hinder his popularity with women in the slightest.
After all, what affects women's popularity is appearance, fame, wealth, and power, and has nothing to do with whether they have a girlfriend or whether they are married.
And Xiang Nan has also finalized Gal Gadot to play the black widow, and began preparations for "Iron Man 2".
…
In October, "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" will be released.
This movie is also the conclusion of "The Hobbit". And since Tolkien's other works on "The Lord of the Rings", such as "The Silmarillion", "The Unfinished Tale", "History of the Central Plains", are unwilling to sell the film and television adaptation rights, this should be the last one produced by Peter Jackson Movies related to The Lord of the Rings.
Although Peter Jackson was very unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
And this finale of "The Hobbit", after its release, the box office response is still very good. After all, it is the last one, even if it is out of feelings, these fans will support it.
Therefore, the final box office in North America was 250 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was as high as 960 million U.S. dollars.
Although the "Hobbit" trilogy is not as popular as the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, it is still a good magical adventure film, and the box office performance is also very good.
So Xiang Nan expressed his satisfaction, and he suggested that Peter Jackson, if he really couldn't let go of "The Lord of the Rings", he could consider adapting the "Warcraft" series.
The "Warcraft" series is the most popular real-time strategy game in the world, with sales of more than 10 million copies, and its influence in Europe, America and even the world is no worse than "Lord of the Rings".
And the "Warcraft" series is also very epic. From the struggle between the ancient gods and the elemental lords, from the unification of Azeroth by the trolls to the struggle against the Zerg, from the birth of the night elves to the explosion of the Well of Eternity, from the invasion of the orcs to the destruction of the tribes, from the destruction of Draenor From the destruction to the fall of Lordaeron... Countless heroes, countless legends, and countless tragedies were born during this period.
Xiang Nan felt that the adaptation of "Warcraft" is actually quite good.
After reading the outline of the story of "Warcraft", Peter Jackson was very interested in this story, so he agreed to take over. However, he no longer plays in person, and will only act as a producer later.
Xiang Nan agrees. Let's be honest, Peter Jackson is already famous by now. From the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "The Hobbit" trilogy alone, his income exceeded 700 million US dollars, which is definitely a rich man.
It's understandable that he doesn't want to work hard to film anymore. Just like Cameron and Lucas, they don't film often anymore.
