2069【Pirates of the Caribbean 5】

Xiang Nan then began to train Bella Thorne, Gal Gadot, Lan Yan, Ni Ni, Megan Fox, Holland, Ryan Reynolds and others.

"I'm very optimistic about your future, don't let me down." Xiang Nan said to his brother Holland.

Among them all, he is the youngest, plays the heaviest role, and is working with Xiang Nan for the first time.

"Yes, Mr. Charles, I promise to work a hundred times harder." Tom Holland nodded.

Xiang Nan also nodded.

Anyway, the contract has not been officially signed yet, and he still has a few months of observation time. If Tom Holland and Bella Thorne do not perform well, he will not give them another chance.



In August, "Iron Man 3" was released.

Although there is a proliferation of superhero movies these days, not to mention how many superhero movies Universal has released, even Warner next door is not idle.

Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Green Arrow, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Suicide Squad...these superheroes have all been launched or are in production.

In addition, there are Hellboy, Underworld Police, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers... there are all kinds of them, no less than thirty kinds.

But although there are many superheroes, Iron Man is still the most popular.

On the one hand, he is full of charm. He is both a talented person and a short-lived person, a swinger and an infatuated lover, both responsible and careless.

He is a contradictory and three-dimensional character, more charming and likeable than other superheroes.

Boys like him for being smart, rich, cool and responsible; girls like him for being handsome, infatuated, and a prodigal who will never change his mind for money. Therefore, even though Xiang Nan has repeatedly weakened his core position in the Avengers, he is still the most popular

Welcome superhero.

After the release of "Iron Man 3", it also achieved very good box office. The final North American box office was US$490 million, the overseas box office was US$805 million, and the global box office was US$1.21 billion.

"Iron Man 3" is also the first stand-alone superhero movie to earn more than 1.2 billion US dollars at the box office, which can be said to have made history.

Such results also made Warner, Paramount, Fox, etc. next door cry.



In September, "King Kong vs. Godzilla" will be released.

Both monsters have the title of king. Not only are they equally powerful, they are also equally popular. It can be said that the dragon in the cloud meets the dragon in the mist, the tiger going down the mountain meets the tiger going up the mountain, and the needle points against the wheat awn.

Which one is strong and which one is weak? Naturally, you have to fight hard to know who is the real king of monsters.

However, the movie didn't say who won or lost in the end, because the two of them were fighting and aimed at the Mechagodzilla created by humans.

After beating Mechagodzilla, King Kong and Godzilla parted ways, and neither cared about the other.

This is actually a deliberate design. After all, the two monsters are equally popular, and fans will not accept whoever loses, so the best way is not to decide the winner, so that no one has anything to say. Just like "Freddy vs. Jason"

, in the end, neither lost nor won.

And it's different from the original version of "King Kong vs. Godzilla." The original version was filmed after "Godzilla: King of the Monsters." Mechagodzilla used Ghidorah's energy, which led to Godzilla's death.

Hatred and aggression.

But now that Ghidorah is not dead, Mechagodzilla naturally has nothing to do with it. It follows the original work and is a mechanical monster created by humans with the intention of fighting Godzilla.

After all, Godzilla caused huge losses to human society when he appeared before, so it was inevitable that humans would prepare to deal with him.

However, Mechagodzilla not only offended Godzilla, but also King Kong, and was torn to pieces. In the end, humans who wanted to control nature swallowed all the bitter consequences.

"King Kong vs. Godzilla", with its gorgeous special effects, grand scenes, and wonderful story, finally won a very good reputation and box office.

In the end, the box office in North America was US$250 million, and the global box office exceeded US$700 million. For a work with a production cost of US$200 million, this is a very good result.



In October, "Pirates of the Caribbean 5" will be released.

Captain Jack returns again, bringing with him Henry Turner, the son of Will Turner and Elizabeth Yin, and Carina, the daughter of old enemy Barbosad.

In this part, they will search for the legendary trident of Poseidon, the king of the sea. It is said that as long as it is broken, all ocean curses can be broken.

In this way, Will Turner, the captain of the Flying Dutchman, can reunite with his wife Elizabeth Yin, instead of having to be intimate only once every ten years.

But in this way, people who were subject to the curse in the past will also return again. For example, the terrifying Davy Jones. And without the Flying Dutchman to extradite the dead souls, the sea god Calypso will also become furious and take revenge.

Therefore, this laid the foundation for "Pirates of the Caribbean 6".

The return of Captain Jack Sparrow is a big surprise for every movie fan. Therefore, even before the movie was released, the audience was already looking forward to it.

Therefore, as soon as it was released, fans flocked to it, and the box office on the first day exceeded 100 million US dollars, which was really amazing. In the end, the North American box office was 200 million US dollars, and the global box office was nearly 800 million US dollars.

This result is worse than "Pirates of the Caribbean 4", and the reputation is not as good as the previous one. The reason for this is probably because Captain Jack Sparrow took a back seat and Henry Turner and Carina took on the leading roles.

.

However, such results are considered good. At least Universal Pictures made more money than the previous film.

Because Captain Jack Sparrow was the protagonist when filming the previous film, Universal Pictures also offered Johnny Depp a sky-high salary, wishing they could give him a third of the budget.

In this movie, he was a supporting actor and his salary was reduced by half. Although the box office was less, Universal Pictures also paid less. Overall, it was actually more profitable.

Moreover, Xiang Nan is also trying to replace Depp.

After all, he is old now and will soon turn sixty.

No one wants to see an old man with a wrinkled face flirting around, even if that person is Depp.

What's more, there are so many action scenes in "Pirates of the Caribbean". Depp is not Xiang Nan. He doesn't practice kung fu, and he is usually full of wine, sex and wealth. Therefore, he is just over 50 years old, and he looks like he has been hollowed out.

It's impossible to fight for a few more years.

And "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a very, very good IP, but Xiang Nan doesn't want it to be tied to death with Depp. So now he is trying to develop new characters.
Chapter completed!
