"Ghostbusters 2" immediately sent out invitations to the original team members, and sure enough, they all ran into some trouble.

Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and others all want to come, after all, they all owe Xiang Nan a big favor. But the key is that they are all filming now, so the schedules cannot be missed.

After they became popular, they were booked into countless dramas, one after another. They were no longer the small actors who were unlikely to get a role in the past year.

They all expressed their willingness to make guest appearances, but they were unable to take on the main role and star in the whole show.

Xiang Nan was also mentally prepared. He knew that after these celebrities became famous, it would be impossible for them to get together. Being able to make a cameo would already be a great deal.

Just like "Wulin Gaiden", before the filming started, the leading actors were basically young actors. After the filming started, they all became popular. It is impossible to get together to make a sequel.

Fortunately, he was also prepared. If these people really couldn't come, he would write them to set up branches in other cities. At the last moment, he would let everyone come out to show unity, which would be exciting enough for the fans.

Xiang Nan then re-searched for new team members and quickly made a decision.

Kevin Costner, Mel Gibson, Bruce Willis and Pierce Brosnan, these mid-career stars who will become huge hits in the future, are now mostly second- and third-tier artists.

Kevin Costner debuted in 1983 and played an important role in the first movie he starred in. Unfortunately, all the scenes were later deleted. However, his acting skills and professional attitude still attracted the attention of the industry.

It wasn't until 1987 that he participated in "The Untouchables" and officially became famous in the industry.

Mel Gibson has already made his debut in 1977, and has his own famous work "Mad Max". This movie became a sensation and profoundly influenced a large number of film and television works in later generations.

However, this movie was only successful once. By the time the third film was filmed, the box office had dropped to more than 30 million US dollars, making it basically no longer profitable. Mel Gibson also faced the threat of becoming obsolete.

Bruce Willis and Pierce Brosnan are now television stars. Their starring roles in "Moonlight Detective Agency" and "The Steele Chronicle" are very popular.

However, TV stars and movie stars are not the same concept, and their grades are very different.

For example, the six leading actors in "Friends" can be considered top-notch in the television industry. But when they go to make movies, most of them can only make small and medium-budget movies, and they are not even starring roles, but only supporting roles.

Therefore, after the four of them received Xiang Nande's invitation, they all agreed immediately. For them, this was really a great honor.

…

As for the heroine, Xiang Nan is also planning to replace her.

The heroine of the first film was Phoebe Cates. She was very beautiful and very popular when she appeared in the film. She was a newly popular teen idol.

But Phoebe Cates comes from a privileged family, her father is a television producer and her uncle is a film director, so she is not very career-minded.

After filming "Ghostbusters", she even took a year off and did not take any roles. She only focused on love and fun, which led to a decline in popularity.

And because she had so many scandals, Xiang Nan was unwilling to use her again, so he was ready to change the heroine. It just so happened that Nicole Kidman came to the United States with him, and before any arrangements were made, Xiang Nan decided

She plays the heroine.

This naturally made Nicole very happy.

She knew how successful "Ghostbusters" was. After it was released the year before last, it had grossed 240 million U.S. dollars in box office worldwide. It was re-released last year and made tens of millions of U.S. dollars. The cumulative box office was nearly 300 million U.S. dollars. It can be seen that

How successful it was.

As for Xiang Nan's movies, sequels are often more successful than their predecessors, so she also has confidence in "Ghostbusters 2". Once this movie is released and becomes a hit at the box office, she can use it to gain a foothold in Hollywood. Just think about it.

All excited.

For this reason, she became more proactive and enthusiastic towards Xiang Nan.

…

"Ghostbusters 2" production began immediately.

At the same time, the nonsensical comedy movie "The Princess Bride" starring Mia Sara, Keanu Reeves and Johnny Depp has officially been completed and will be released soon.

This movie is a spicy spoof of Disney princess movies. Disney princess movies began production in 1937 and have a history of nearly 50 years.

These animated films are quite popular. Even decades after their birth, Disney can still rely on them to earn hundreds of millions in licensing fees every year. They can be said to be Disney's cash cow.

It is also because it has been around for a long time and is popular enough that the American people are familiar with it. Therefore, it is particularly popular now that it is being parodied.

Therefore, after the movie was released, the box office was quite good. The final local box office was 56 million US dollars, and the global box office is estimated to exceed 100 million US dollars.

Compared with the investment of less than 10 million US dollars, this movie can be said to be a great success.

Therefore, Mia Sara has stabilized her position as a first-line and second-line woman. As for Keanu Reeves and Johnny Depp, they became an instant hit and successfully made a name for themselves in Hollywood.

…

Seeing that the market response to the spoof movie was so good, major film companies couldn't help but invest in it.

Various spoof comedy projects have been launched one after another, and Xiang Nan has invested in the "White Head Detective" project.

"The Detective" was originally a comedy series launched by ABC in 1982. However, because the content of the series was too advanced, the audience was not used to this kind of nonsensical spoof. Therefore, after six episodes, the TV series

Got chopped.

Just like when "Westward Journey" was first released, it was difficult for mainland audiences to accept it. The box office was not good at all, and it even caused the investment company Caixing Pictures to close its doors.

Who would have thought that a few years later, this movie, which was once dismissed as cultural garbage, would become popular on the Internet and become a classic of Chinese films.

The same was true for "The Detective", which was not taken seriously at first. In 1988, the original team adapted it into a movie, and the result was a great success.

The first two films both entered the top ten in the annual box office rankings. Although the third film did not enter the top ten, it also achieved good box office results.

Therefore, when the spoof movie became popular and the producers of the original "White Head Detective" crew began to promote the "White Head Detective" project everywhere, Xiang Nan found them and invested 12 million US dollars.

He believes that this movie will bring him huge returns.

In addition, he has also prepared a project called "Detective Airplane Head".

This movie is Jim Carrey's famous work. It tells the story of an animal detective who helps the team find the mascot dolphin Snowflake. Jim Carrey used his comedy skills in this film to turn a case that was not too complicated.

, the performance is full of fun and full of effects.

Therefore, Jim Carrey became an instant hit and became a famous comedy star in Hollywood.
