Chapter 689: Return to Marvel (3)

"So, unless Warner has full control, DC can't make a good movie, but their Wonder Woman did give me an idea...

Kevin, we've been talking about Black Widow indie movies for a long time, and now Marvel has the ability to make the first movie starring a female superhero.

We should pay attention to female audiences in North America or around the world, think of "Twilight", women's spending power is also an objective box office income..."

Kevin fell silent, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the marble table.

If it is said that in the decades of Hollywood's film history, there is a strong female color, or the audience is dominated by women after the release of the movie, the "Twilight" series is a work that can never be ignored.

From the perspective of professional film critics and men, many people criticize this movie as worthless, as if changing those bloody Mary Sue idol dramas into movie versions and putting on the halo of vampires.

It's understandable that men don't like this, perhaps they are jealous of Edward's popularity and looks in the movie, as well as his innate aristocratic temperament.

But I have to admit that this work, which was not favored from the beginning, caused a sensation among the female group after its release, which completely shocked the outside world.

It was probably from that time that there was a special group of female directors in Hollywood.

"There are not many female characters in Marvel's cinematic universe today, and so far, there are only two of the most popular, Pepper Pepper Pepper and Black Widow Natasha.

The former is always associated with Iron Man, and as long as Iron Man appears, the existence of Little Pepper will be indispensable, so that only Black Widow remains..."

Lee Hyun-cheol and Kevin had the idea of making a superhero movie with a female color for a long time, but due to various factors, they stalled.

At the end of the day, there were very few films within Hollywood that featured women.

If you compare the salary of male and female Hollywood movie stars, you will find that the difference between the two is very obvious, and Hollywood is not only a high incidence of racial discrimination, but also sexism.

An actress can get a salary of one or two million dollars, which is already the top treatment in Hollywood.

But in the case of actors, it is just a mid-stream level, just compare Donnie and Johnny Depp.

"Lee.... You're really attached to the Black Widow project..."

Kevin has never refused or denied that he did not want to make a "Black Widow" independent film, and the two-year gap left by Lee Hyun Chul has led to the project being put on hold indefinitely internally, and most of the directors disagree, believing that "this is not the right time".

But with the release of "Avengers 1" at the box office, and "Black Widow" has gained a wave of fans all over the world, as the only female member of "The Avengers", she is indeed qualified for Marvel to set its eyes on her, otherwise she is really sorry for the "first sister" status that Marvel gave her.

"Tell me... Are you between you and Scarlett..."

Gossip is human nature, and in Kevin's view, Lee Hyun-chul suddenly became interested in the Black Widow project from a certain point.

He even wanted to participate in the investment, and Kevin could see that he was very confident in the results of "Black Widow".

Of course, he didn't know that the reason for Lee Hyun-chul's interest and confidence in "Black Widow" was that DC boldly started filming "Wonder Woman" a few years later, which caused unprecedented praise.

"Kevin... When did you change careers to become a paparazzi..."Li Xianzhe pushed Kevin back with a face.

"Before, we felt that the project needed to be put on hold and that the timing was wrong, but now I feel that we should start and I can write the script.

I also wanted to try to write a story that would be enjoyed by female audiences.

What's more, if you keep pushing it off like this, Kevin, you have to consider Scarlett's age, and when she retires from the screen in the future, you won't be able to shoot it if you want to. ”

With the bloody example of Toby Aoi in front of us, one can't accept a man with a scumbag face playing Peter Parker, who is always a student in the comics.

Similarly, people can't accept an old woman with butterfly prints on her face to play the role of young Natasha.

"And... Marvel has avoided this project for a long time... I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand those feminist attacks..."With this advice from Lee Hyun-chul, Kevin's face finally changed.

The feminist community, which is a source of headache for the government, ostensibly swears that men and women are equal, but discrimination exists everywhere.

In a country like the United States, few men dare to openly offend feminist organizations, because the next moment they will beat you up, and there are still many women in the United States.

When it was rumored that "Black Widow" might be filmed, Lee Hyun-cheol remembered that many feminist organizations sent emails to Marvel, saying that they would "always pay attention" and "hope that Marvel can bring Black Widow to the big screen as soon as possible".

"Lee... You know, of course, we are happy to make a story that can make money, but we couldn't shoot it at the beginning, because we couldn't find someone in the company who was willing to take charge of the project, and there were many screenwriters who sent us good stories, but they couldn't satisfy us..."

Li Xianzhe was speechless, Kevin's speed of changing his face was really fast, and his front foot had been thinking about it, as if he was deliberately fishing for him.

"Leave the project of "Black Widow" to me, except for "Captain America 3", "Thor 3", "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2"... For me, it's just one more task. ”

"Oh God... Do you Orientals like to work like this?

Lee, do you know that in Hollywood, no screenwriter has ever dared to take on so many tasks at once, and some people may need to spend a year polishing a script..."

Although Kevin is very pleased with Lee Hyun-cheol's work attitude, this is the boss's favorite type of employee everywhere, not only efficient, quality, but also overachieves tasks.

But on the other hand, from a friend's point of view, Kevin is very worried about Lee Hyun-chul's state.

Because Marvel has to ensure that at least two movies are released every year, and Lee Hyun-chul has taken all the next few years at once.

"Don't worry... I will hand over the script to you according to the movie release schedule set by the company before... I had an idea for these parts a few years ago."

Lee Hyun-chul replied in a humorous tone, "Of course... If you'd like to provide me with a delicious lunch and afternoon refreshment... I can start writing the script from now on...."

Kevin waved his hand, and Lee Hyun-cheol's enthusiasm for work suddenly exploded, and he felt that he needed a period of time to buffer it.

"Oh no, no, no.... You've finished Age of Ultron and Infinity War, I think you should take a break, there's no rush in the script, I'm sure you won't run, what we have is time and so on. 2k reading network
