Chapter 637: Smoke Bombs and Real Hole Cards
"Indeed, when I won the role of "Thor", Marvel only paid me $00,000, and my agent and family were very unhappy about it. ”
00,000 dollars, Chris seemed to be able to see the group of girls around him looking at him, full of consternation.
Even if you don't understand the price of celebrity salaries in Hollywood, this money is really not worthy of the identity of Chris Hemsworth today.
Marvel, which is faintly on par with several giant Hollywood companies, is also bloodsucking when treating the actors it works with.
"This is too unusual, isn't it, $00,000" In a hurry, Jin Yilin couldn't help but speak, and then realized that she had said the wrong thing, and covered her mouth again.
"Shh
Besides, being able to know so many things in the Hollywood film industry can be regarded as satisfying my curiosity.
00,000 US dollars, converted into Korean won, is only 200 million, which seems to be a lot, and in South Korea, this is the amount that many trending artists can earn, let alone those actors.
Maybe there are no outsiders here, and he doesn't mind Jin Yilin's diss Chris, he just smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Girl, you're right, many of my friends around me were very angry when they heard that I was only paid for playing Thor, thinking that Marvel was treating us like beggars, but at that time it was useless for us to regret it.
Throughout Hollywood, although many people look down on "superheroes", many people are very eager to cooperate with Marvel. Today's Marvel is no longer what it used to be, and many people hope to use Marvel's hand to make their careers rise. ”
Chris spread out his hands, he was desperate for the role of "Saul" and gave up the other five or six film contracts in his hand, perhaps at that time, he valued opportunities more than money.
It turns out that as long as you can make a name for yourself in "superheroes", you will also get off to a good start. But after playing, new troubles also came.
"The aura of a superhero is not so easy to get rid of. Excluding those failed works, Tobiquill is now left with no drama to film, and has to shift his focus to his family. ”
Lee Hyun-chul shook the quilt, and the focus of his gaze gradually disappeared and became hollow.
So far, many actors have put on the "superhero" armor given by Marvel, but few have successfully taken it off.
This is a "curse", and it is also the reason why these few in front of him will not terminate their cooperation with Marvel before they are sure that they have the ability and a good script can be taken off by themselves.
Where could the girls have imagined that these two people chatted and chatted, and turned out the most classic version of Spider-Man's secrets.
"But didn't Tobiquil retire because of his age?"
The three men looked at each other and burst into laughter. It's okay to deceive the ignorant masses for such a reason, but you can't deceive Hollywood insiders.
It's not that after Spider-Man 3, despite the overwhelming criticism of this film from fans to the media, he was still the brightest star at that time. ”
Jeremy leaned back on the couch and sighed, "After that, Sam Raimi, who had been the director, had a very unpleasant friction with Sony executives, which caused him to abandon the first draft of the Spider-Man 4 character that he had already drawn, and the series went bankrupt from then on."
And because of his body, many scenes in Tobiquill must be completed with the cooperation of a stand-in, so he also left with the director, and now he is with his children, and his life is very comfortable. ”
Knowing the real reason, this made it difficult for teenage fans who have all watched the Spider-Man series to accept it for a while.
But if you think about it carefully, Tobiquill disappeared from the public's sight in this way, although it is a pity, but it is also a good ending for himself.
"If we played a role in which the copyright was in Sony's hands, maybe today is a different story.
But even if we understand that Marvel was cautiously reluctant to invest more in movies in the early days, I, and Evans, and Downey filmed the second and third films, and although our salaries have increased, compared to the global box office, it is really too far behind.
Outsiders think it's cool that we can work with Marvel, but when it comes to the salaries of Hollywood stars, we're like beggars.
Now that our partnership with Marvel is about to expire, Kevin has revealed to us that they will discuss with us about the next step in signing the contract.
But Lee, we're still reluctant to play the roles we have at the moment, but if Marvel can't come up with a salary that makes us Marvel, we may have to say sorry to our respective characters. ”
Chris stroked his wet beard and said in a deep voice, although Thor is later than Iron Man, it has been extremely successful in both industry reviews and commercial gains.
So far, everyone with "independent film" contracts, including Chris, has signed a "trilogy" with Marvel, but that doesn't mean they will definitely shoot.
The box office of the movie, the salary, and one's own personal factors are all factors that determine future changes.
Lee Hyun-cheol naturally understands what they are thinking, in the idea and planning he originally submitted to Marvel, since 08, Marvel needs to shoot more than 0 movies that conform to the cosmology, and there will be more in the future.
It's a cash cow that won't dry up anytime soon, but it's all about the stars involved.
Everything is already indicated at the early stage of the signing of the respective contract.
Tom Hiddles, the "Shake Sen" in the mouths of Chinese netizens, played the villain Loki in Avengers 1, with a salary of only $160,000, but the budget of the whole movie is as high as 100 million.
The others were no better, with Chris Evans, who played Captain America, getting $300,000 (Part 1), and none of those people were involved in getting box office pink.
Lee Hyun-cheol also expressed his dissatisfaction with Marvel about this matter, but this overlord clause was not something he could change at that time.
"Last year's Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, and Captain America: The Winter Soldier all achieved good results at the global box office, except for Ant-Man, who had not yet been established, the second phase is almost due. ”
When it comes to things inside Marvel, several big men are silent, among which Jeremy's Hawkeye can be said to be the worst.
has been working together for many years, and there has been no progress in independent films about Hawkeye, and it seems that Marvel has no plans to shoot.
"What I'm not sure about right now is the extent to which the Marvel shareholders are treating me.
When I was in the planning department, many of the planned plans were rejected by them due to various problems.
This time, I came back to solve this problem completely, after all, I was also involved in the planning of this "cinematic universe project". ”
