Hollywood legendary director

The success of "The Mist" is beneficial to several actors.

New York, the central square of Manhattan.

The already lively streets gathered more people than ever before, and unexpectedly, these people didn't go to the nearby commercial brand stores, but gathered together, holding a support sign in their hands.

Passers-by glanced at it and found that the names of actors such as Nicholas Cage and Eva Green were written on it.Thoughtful.

Yes, the roadshow of the crew of "The Mist" is not over yet, but it is also coming to an end.

The main creators of the line appeared one by one in the introduction of the host.

The promotional content of the event will then be launched.

Among them, Eva feels the most different.

As the role of Camodi in "The Mist" was cursed by the audience, she felt as if she had been in a new situation-as Cage said, she was scolded by the audience for playing a non-positive role, although it didn't feel too good. It feels good, but it also means that the character is successfully created-a villain who is not scolded is not a good villain.

What's more interesting is that the film critics gave her a high rating this time, and no longer said she was dispensable.This is a good thing.

In the past, she was often ridiculed and would not perform. Even in big dramas like "New York Trip", as the heroine, she did not have a high sense of presence in the scene. She was vaguely suppressed by the little girl played by Fanning-although the audience recognized the image, But the venomous film critics didn't give up teasing her.

But after "The Mist", everything seemed to be turned around-the audience did not accept her role, but the film critics praised her well.

Even in the interview, the media reporters recognized her modestly and seemed to think her performance was very good.

During the usual roadshows, the host also took good care of her, always bringing the topic to her side.

And all these made Eva very confused.

However, she seems to understand why those actors with good market appeal like to take on some roles with performance space, or simply go to the independent art circle to polish their acting skills-an actor, occasional box office sales or some support, but want to go In the long run, the bottom line is its own business ability.

For people in the industry, they can always tell who is the meteor that crosses the sky or the mainstay of the industry.

In other words, Eva has always been improving compared to herself.

It’s hard to play supporting roles, and has been able to successfully serve as the heroine of a movie. It is not the kind of eye-catching vase-vases are available every year, and the leading heroine is rare. Even the most profit-seeking Hollywood has its own. Set of actor standards.

For example, most of the choices for acting opportunities are based on strength and flow based on flow.

After the routine roadshow was over, the group went to nbc to record the show.

Here, almost the entire production team is revolving around them, ignoring the few singers and dancers who are not welcome and not popular.

Well, this is Hollywood.

The more popular they are, the more they are sought after and will be respected by capital, even if they only appear as a cash cow.

Just like caa recently raised her level of signing conditions and became more favorable after Eva.

After all, as soon as "The Mist" was released, in addition to box office incentives and remuneration, various advertisements, commercial endorsements, and invitations to participate in events came in abundance. Others gave her money and made her feel soft-this is still carefully selected under the advice of agent Johnson. Only brands that match their own image will receive advertising.

Moreover, after this time, her salary has been quoted at 8 million, and she must participate in the North American box office share.

This number is more difficult to see among second-rate male stars, but it represents the first-line threshold among female stars-Hollywood’s characteristics of despising women will never change. After all, an Oscar actress who participates in a movie is still a heroine, and the pay is returned. It’s better to be able to see that Hollywood’s essence is still patriarchal, and there is no such thing as equality. Many female stars have publicly complained about this injustice, but what Hollywood should do, or how to do it, even Brokerage companies also think so.

After all, in a top power game, more than 95% of those in power, such as directors, producers, photographers... are all men, how can we talk about equality?

However, the irony is that Hollywood is a place where women's rights shout loudly.Just shouting and not changing is also great.

As for the male protagonist Cage, he is also very meaningful, accepting interviews and various high-end parties, all day long.

Of course, Eva, who only tasted this kind of scenery in comparison, would still be confused and panic. Cage has long been used to it.

Among these, the actor whose career gains the most is Samuel. This black movie star has participated in many works, but the box office sales are not much.

With the results of "The Mist", salaries have naturally risen, and the producers who provide the script often contact him.

Of course, some people are frustrated and others are frustrated. Will Smith, who has ended his promotion, has been very melancholy recently.

His agent used to exaggerate the prospect of the project "The Enemy of the People" if it is not followed, it would be a crime, and he also said that it would broaden the scene.

The results of it?

This project was originally designed for the purpose of being small and big. The biggest card of the entire crew is him. Although he is profitable, his role is not recognized by the audience.

It completely consumed his market appeal.

why?

The love saint he plays in the play is a master of teaching men to pick up girls. Once the date is successful, he will get paid.

This movie has some stereotyped descriptions of women, and the characters in it are a bit jealous and comparable, and then Smith seizes this psychology and gives the client sufficient bait.

How should I put it, the character is too frivolous in front and feels disrespectful to women. If it weren't for some plot whitewashing in the back, this wave is a big wave of female fans.

After all, playing a passionate and frivolous role by my favorite idol is not good, especially now that Will Smith does not rely on acting skills. His agency previously positioned him as a black idol template. The image is very positive and humorous. Capturing fans is simply a weapon, especially for those black audiences who are too satisfied with Will.

After all, his skin tone is a plus.

But even so, after the box office of "Rivals of the People" was not satisfactory, some topics emerged, which made Will a little headache.

You also need to spend extra money on public relations to restore your public image.

All the factors added up, Will Smith was not calm, and the new agent James Lasseter was fired after he had been in contact with the agent for less than half a year.

Of course, he has selectively forgotten that "The Enemy of the People" is more affirmed by him. After all, even a brokerage company cannot force actors to choose a show, let alone an agent?

However, there is always a victim.
