Chapter 923 Superhero Blade
Hollywood, Universal Studios, Song Ya was surrounded by groups when she arrived, and she helped to put on a special vest similar to a breastplate, thick leather pants, a leather trench coat and leather gloves, and big sunglasses...
In Los Angeles in late April, he felt trapped in a sweltering iron shell. "I couldn't breathe."
"Try to get used to APLUS, you have to wear these in most scenes."
The two co-directors, Catherine Husband and Zack Snyder, stepped back and joked, admiringly, "It's great! It's cool! This is what we want as a superhero."
"hehe."
Song Ya lowered her hands and looked at her tall and handsome self in the mirror. From head to toe, all her attire was black except for the silver belt buckle, giving her a stern and mysterious aura.
He thought in his heart that if the light was dim, it would be difficult for others to find this Son of Night, even though the Blade Warrior is a hybrid of human and vampire, and has the ability to walk in the sun...
"It's like Batman with sunglasses replaced by masks," he complained.
"For superheroes, the settings are similar." Zack Snyder laughed.
The stylist helped to fasten the samurai sword strap from the back. The buckle was located on the chest. It was still silver and had the 'Logo' pattern of Blade Warrior on it. A pump-action double-barreled shotgun with an exaggerated shape was stuffed in, and there was a nondescript silver bayonet at the muzzle.
"We have also prepared a beautiful custom motorcycle for you. It's not finished yet, but don't worry, it won't be used yet." He pressed the spring-loaded fake knife tip a few times and laughed.
Everything is Batman, Blade Warrior also has a 'special equipment provider' similar to Ah Fu Butler: vampire hunter Abraham Whistler, after the hair stylist took care of Song Ya's hair, he soon met the The actor who played the role, the country singer Kristofferson, also won three Grammys, but that was all in the 1970s, and now the old white man is just a Hollywood green leaf with good cost performance.
"Let's take a group makeup photo first."
I only had time to exchange greetings with the old man before a staff member came over to urge him. Because of Industrial Light & Magic's special effects delay warning, the Blade Warrior crew was in a hurry to catch up with the work. Fortunately, the project budget was not high, and most of the supporting roles were Hollywood fringe people with ample schedule, except for the heroine who was still helping the highest crisis. Halle was all there.
Of course, this does not include Charis, who is far away in South Africa and still has a big belly. At present, her name is not even listed on the cast list.
Song Ya was just taken to the set where the 20th and 30th actors were scurrying around,
Doing my part, standing in the C position in the middle of the front, and then silently waiting for the supporting actors to find their positions. Behind the photographer, producers such as Catherine and Yeremov pointed to the actors, and Kingsley was beside him. And several other powerful Hollywood agents.
"Hi, my sweet son."
Taraji, who played the blade warrior's mother, turned around to take advantage of the verbal advantage, but was frightened by the boss's look.
Apart from old country singers and Taraji, the villain Tim DeKay is the most well-known. He played a lot of supporting roles in the hit TV series Seinfeld, but he is currently a newcomer in the film industry, and he is cheap enough.
Oh, by the way, there is actually a more famous actor, Cixi Lords, a legendary fierce girl who used a fake ID to enter the San Fernando Valley at the age of sixteen, and started her own production company at the age of eighteen. high yield.
This nearly thirty-year-old meat bomb who had put on a red hair set due to the need of the plot found an opportunity to come over and make a few remarks, and after being perfunctory by Song Ya, he wisely stopped teasing him. His appearance is no longer what it used to be, but his current net worth may be the most lucrative actor in the whole crew except himself. He is more stable than Harley and can compete with the old country singer.
She is also the only actor who has worked her way from the San Fernando Valley to being gradually accepted by Hollywood, although she can still only play some low-paid female supporting roles, and most of them are stereotyped roles that show off their sexiness.
"Cheese! APLUS, you don't have to laugh! Just keep being cool!"
After taking a group photo with the supporting actors in black and white, and then continuing to take makeup photos with the main actors, Harley was not there, and there was no time to do the promotional work, so the Blade Runner project unfolded in chaos...
"The APLUS car disappeared in the mansion of the porn star Xue Linfen in San Marino. He claimed that he was only going to visit their common child, but the reporter of this newspaper waited until the early morning of the next day to see his convoy leaving..."
It's okay, the hip-hop star's routine operation, Song Ya, who is single again, doesn't bother to hide it anymore, let the paparazzi dig up the news, anyway, it's not me who is tired and hungry waiting all night.
"APLUS, the camera flow is roughly like this, he jumps over from the side, punches, and then you..."
I am the most popular fashion superstar in the crew, the protagonist of the story, and the superhero. As long as I am there, everyone will be around, and Catherine and his wife are no exception. Song Ya knew that the reason for all this was because he was the only one in the crew who could carry the box office alone, and there was already a very successful precedent, Hollywood people believed this.
He couldn't help thinking of another superhero movie, The Phantom, which is somewhat similar to Batman. Blade Warrior must not follow in the footsteps of the first bad movie that was danced out of my life to achieve box office crushing, otherwise Hollywood will treat him trust will end here.
After all, this is not an "Apocalypse" movie of its own.
The Chinese-American action director wearing a blond long-haired headgear talked about the play very carefully, and then helped to correct the actions and rehearse over and over again. He himself will also act as an action stand-in for a supporting actress.
The plot of Blade Warrior is very simple. The superhero chases the bad guys and kills them. He encounters a little setback in the middle, and then cooperates with the heroine to win a big victory. There are some emotional dramas, funny passages, hot fights, and visual spectacle interspersed in the middle. .
But fortunately, the core of the story of Blade Warrior is not as old as Phantom Man, and it is slightly more innovative than superhero blockbusters such as Batman. A superhero movie, of course, and the first African-American superhero movie.
For me, all the difficulties lie in how to play beautifully. This is not something that can be solved by just practicing horse stance and basic moves for a while. It’s enough to perform almost in place in front of the camera, and leave the rest to post-production special effects and editing.
Hollywood has been frantically absorbing the talent and technology of Xiangjiang Films recently, but it doesn’t matter if they are still arrogant or confident. In short, they firmly refuse to copy them all, but try to integrate them into a model acceptable to Omi audiences. They are still in the It's a time to find the balance between the straight-forward fighting moves of Mi-style and the beautiful moves of Oriental Kung Fu.
Just like the samurai sword on my back, it may be nondescript in the eyes of Orientals, but it is the most familiar oriental weapon to Western audiences. The book "Chrysanthemum and Sword" is very well-known in the United States, plus the memory of World War II and the book for many years Cultural output, the main creative team including Marvel stubbornly refused to replace it with other things.
"Ahhh!"
A martial artist jumped up high, yelling and rushed towards him. Song Ya kept in mind the instructions of the two directors to focus on being cool, with a blank expression...he basically had no extra expressions in the whole play, dancing out my life The facial paralysis acting in the first part is enough.
Stepping aside, he quickly slashed sideways with the samurai sword, and slashed and pulled on the samurai, and then the opponent fell to the ground, motionless as if dead.
"Very well, let's continue to rehearse the next scene, hurry up..."
What needs to be filmed in advance is the opening nightclub scene with the most actors and the most ambitious in the whole show. The blade fighter kills one evil "vampire" after another, not only with a knife, but also with the shotgun. It can also breathe fire, and when the fire is finished, use a bayonet. According to the setting, the bayonet is made of silver, which can suppress the regeneration ability of vampires.
In short, superheroes relying on equipment to kill the audience is a traditional Hollywood art.
Although the movements can't be completely done, Song Ya can still bear hardships when he is serious. He rehearses hard and basically doesn't play big names except that he is very unapproachable. There are also practical reasons for being unapproachable. Except for Zack Schneider and Taraji, he basically There are few acquaintances to talk to, and it can also resist the harassment of many "motivated" actors and actresses.
"Boss, Rick Rubin has agreed to sell his shares in American Music Magazine. Delay and Mrs. Flock are already rushing over."
A few days later, Taraji, who returned as a guest assistant, reported, "They will buy Louise's report for the American music website."
"I see. Remind me when the time comes. I will also meet with Rick Rubin."
Song Ya, who was undergoing makeup, remained expressionless.
"Will you fight on the spot?" Taraji asked.
"Don't make me laugh, Taraji, it's brewing."
Song Ya, who was put on a windbreaker, strode towards the set. In the nightclub lobby, the'vampires' had just finished enjoying the blood donation feast. Their bodies and the ground were all red, and everyone looked at him, and there was silence.
"Departments ready!" cried Catherine's husband.
Song Ya put on her sunglasses, stood upright, and stood in front of the camera where the slide rails had been laid.
"!"
The sound of hitting the board sounded, and the vampires rushed over like a tide. The camera retreated along the slide rail, and Song Ya drew out his samurai sword and met him head-on.
