1987【Charlize Theron】

"Fake God" is another masterpiece of Jim Carrey. It tells the story of the protagonist, a reporter, who is unhappy with his work, love affairs, and life. He often complains that God is unfair. God is annoyed by his nagging and decides to

Let him do his job instead.

The male protagonist was enjoying it at first, but then he realized how much trouble he had caused...

The theme of this movie is somewhat similar to "Groundhog Day", "Remote Control of Life", etc. It uses some fantastic events to make the protagonist understand that instead of complaining again and again, it is better to start with himself and change his attitude towards life.

, live every day seriously.

Although the theme is old, it is really interesting to incarnate God, so after the movie was released that year, it earned nearly 500 million US dollars at the box office.



"Pirates of the Caribbean" is Johnny Depp's masterpiece. Disney's original purpose of filming this movie was to advertise the pirate ship attractions it added to Disneyland, so it was prepared to lose money.

After all, Hollywood movies that involve water have always done poorly at the box office. "Waterworld" and the pirate-themed "Cutthroat Island" both learned this lesson and suffered miserably.

Unexpectedly, this movie turned out to be a huge success, and as a result, five movies were made in a row, earning billions of dollars, and giving Disney an IP that is guaranteed to make money without losing money.

With such a profitable project, Xiang Nan will naturally not go cheap for Disney. He plans to ask Johnny Depp to make this movie. When the time comes, this attraction will be added to Universal Studios.

Coupled with Hogwarts in "Harry Potter" and Dinosaur World in "Jurassic Park"... Universal Studios will be even more lively than Disneyland.



Xiang Nan then invited Charlize Theron to meet.

"Congratulations, Charlize, "Beauty" has good reputation and high box office. You finally became famous this time." He smiled and congratulated Charlize Theron.

"I would also like to thank you. Without your support, I wouldn't be where I am today." Charlize Theron said gratefully.

A script as good as "Beautiful Agent" is actually very rare. Because Hollywood has always been a world of male stars. In the 20 million club, almost all are men, and there are almost no women.

Moreover, in the film, most of the women are men's vassals, and most of them have the attributes of a vase. There are very few characters who are not men's vassals and do not hold the male protagonist back.

That's why it's so rare for "Beautiful Agent" to have a female lead. And such a resource happened to fall on her, which made her a great success and became famous in one fell swoop. Naturally, she has to thank Xiang Nan for making it possible.

"You're welcome. It's only because you have enough strength and performed this role so perfectly that you made this movie so successful." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Thank you for your compliment. I think I didn't do well enough." Charlize said modestly.

"No need to be modest, I just have a movie recently that I hope you will star in." Xiang Nan laughed, and then told Charlize Theron the story of "Surprise", "I hope you will play the heroine."

After listening to the story, Charlize Theron nodded.

"Surprise" is a commercial film, and with Xiang Nan in charge, the box office will definitely be good. And although she has become famous with "The Secret Service", she still needs good works to maintain her popularity.

After all, there are really too many beautiful and good-acting actresses in Hollywood. Therefore, this movie "Surprise" is very suitable for her.



Entering March, Universal Pictures released Eminem's biopic "8 Mile."

Eminem is one of the most outstanding rappers in the United States today. Rap ​​was originally a music type unique to African Americans. It emerged in the late 1970s and has flourished today.

Because hip-hop is rebellious, entertaining, and casual, and is more trendy and exciting than other music types, it is very popular among young people.

However, because hip-hop is mostly composed of African-American singers, it is difficult to spread it in white society.

Just like rock music, it was popular in the African-American community as early as the early 1950s, but it was not until Elvis Presley came out that rock music began to become widely popular in the white community.

The birth of Eminem just filled this gap. He instantly won the love of countless white fans and became the most popular hip-hop singer.

"Eight Mile" was a movie written based on Eminem's personal experiences after he became famous. Many of the plots in the film actually happened to him, so Eminem was particularly good at acting. There is a sense of involvement. Even though he is a newcomer in the entertainment industry, he still contributed outstanding acting skills.

"Eight Mile" truly shows the world of hip-hop and the living conditions of underground singers. It is real, rough and powerful. Coupled with the participation of popular superstars, the box office performance is still good.

In the end, the box office in North America was US$110 million, and the global box office was US$230 million. For a newcomer, it is really amazing to achieve such results.



March is also the time for the Oscars.

Mel Gibson's "Gladiator," Tom Hanks' "Cast Away," and Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" are all favorites to win the award.

Xiang Nan also walked on the red carpet with Charlize Theron.

For the past month, he has been with Charlize every day, preparing for the filming of "The Last Day".

As the contact deepened, the relationship between the two became closer and closer, and the final result was naturally that they hit it off. Therefore, at this moment when Xiang Nan was walking on the red carpet, Charlize Theron was in a particularly high mood.

"Charles, you and Charlize walked the red carpet together, are you going to work together again?" the host asked with a smile.

"Yes, we are preparing a movie recently. It can be said that it is a type of movie that I have never acted before. I hope the fans will like it," Xiang Nan said.

"Oh?! A type that I have never acted before? Can you tell me a little more?" the host asked excitedly.

"Okay, let me reveal a little more. I might be the villain in this movie." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Villain?!" the host became even more excited.

Xiang Nan has only played positive roles since his debut, in "Die Hard", "Lethal Weapon", "Speed", "Mission: Impossible"... I am afraid this is the first time he has played a villain, so it is naturally novel and interesting, and This will also be a major selling point of "Fast and Furious".



Then the award ceremony was officially held.

Xiang Nan has no other awards shortlisted, so he is focusing on "Gladiator", "Cast Away" and "Lord of the Rings" to see which film can win the Best Picture Award.

"Actually, your "Gladiator" and "Cast Away" are fully qualified to win the Best Screenplay Award." Charlize Theron said aggrievedly for him.
