It is not difficult to convince Warner Bros. and DC Comics to let Wonder Woman appear in this new "Superman". , will undoubtedly be very helpful to the next film plan.

Not only Wonder Woman, Warner Bros. also proposed that Murphy try to introduce Batman into this film.

Murphy will also consider it carefully, but the first thing is to determine the role of Wonder Woman and make her look consistent with the style of the entire film.

This is quite easy. Murphy has fought with Gal Gadot in armor many times, so he has a lot of experience.

Therefore, the future Wonder Woman will inevitably take off the gorgeous red and blue costumes. At the same time, for the sake of the global market, the Stars and Stripes will also disappear from her body and be changed to the ancient Greek costume specially made by Murphy for Gal Gadot. The gladiator shape should also have a metallic feel and an inevitable de-vase design.

These are the most basic existence of a film. If the basics are not well established in the early stage of planning, how can we shoot and produce a film? Not to mention the complicated situation that is bound to be faced, even Warner Bros. and DC Comics cannot pass.

They really depended on Murphy, but they wouldn't let anyone mess around without restrictions, and the money they invested didn't just fall from the sky.

With a serious and responsible attitude, Murphy not only completed the script, but also formulated a detailed plan. After submitting it to the investor, it was quickly approved. Warner Bros. approved the project almost as quickly as possible in the program. project.

What is the most indispensable thing for the project to take place? Funding of course!

Warner Bros. plans to invest 200 million U.S. dollars in production costs for this new Superman film. This is also Murphy's first directing cost of more than 100 million U.S. dollars since he entered Hollywood.

Such a cost also means that in the future, the global box office of the film must reach at least 600 million US dollars in order for Murphy to get 20% of the global box office dividend.

With the completion of the review by Warner Bros., this brand new "Superman" film also has an official title. Because of the failure of "Superman Returns" before, as well as the theme of the film itself and the characteristics of the beginning of the entire DC series, Murphy is in The name taboo of Superman was completely abandoned in the title of the film, and he directly set the title as "Man of Steel".

However, the name of this film is just the same as the previous one. Murphy is not a fan of DC comics like Zach Snyder. The script is only based on comics, and the content has little to do with comics.

At the same time, driven by Murphy, and in order to match the new movie image, DC Comics will reintegrate a Justice League parallel universe. In this comic universe tentatively named "New 52", Wonder Woman will take off Dressed in stars and stripes, transformed into an ancient Greek warrior, Da Chao will also take off his red underwear once and for all.

The ridicule that "the only difference between me and Superman is that I wear my underwear" that has been circulated among fans will also become history.

"Man of Steel" officially launched the project, and Murphy once again convened his team. All the main members will appear in this cooperation with Warner Bros., only Paul Wilson, who has already prepared the second season of "Game of Thrones", and Except for Seth Rogen, who is still revising the comedy script.

Since these two people have been upgraded to lead a project as directors, CAA is also selecting a suitable assistant director for Murphy.

Warner Bros. will also assign its own producer to the crew, but in terms of filming and production, it is completely dominated by Murphy. This producer is more about cooperating with his work and handling chores for the crew.

After a simple project approval meeting, Murphy led his team into the preparatory work.

The script was basically confirmed. For the consideration of the later shooting, he took the lead in finding two assistant directors to assist him in drawing the storyboard of the shot.

This job is to draw the storyboard script on the storyboard,

Make complex movie shooting more vivid, accurate and simple.

Drawing a storyboard led by Murphy is like drawing a comic strip. It is a process of converting text language into visual language. Dynamic labeling of elements.

In this way, the scope of painting is no longer limited to the picture frame. In many cases, the entire scene must be drawn on paper in order to express the way certain elements enter the picture and the perspective relationship.

Although Murphy is not good at painting, he is very good at using detailed charts to modify his video and control the shooting process to ensure that his original ideas can be completely transformed into films.

The other is the choice of actors. Superman definitely can’t choose a creamy boy, he must be a muscular man. The former actor is now unknown. Instead of spending time and money looking for it, it’s better to hold an audition for Clark Kent.

There is also the casting of Wonder Woman Diana Prinz.

Thinking of Wonder Woman, a picture immediately appeared in Murphy's mind. The retro-style close-fitting battle armor was worn in an ancient Greek combat style, and the leaky-shoulder breastplate was continuously shrinking towards the waist in a V shape, giving people an inverted triangle shape. The beauty of power, the thigh exposed skirt is full of rich details and stacking...

With bronze skin, flowing black hair, torch-like eyes, and sexy tits, the more mature Gal Gadot seems to be about to emerge from the screen.

This is Princess Diana Pulitzer, the one and only Princess of the Amazons!

"Pretty!"

In the bedroom, Murphy looked at Gal Gadot who walked out of the cloakroom, folded his hands on his chest, nodded repeatedly, and said, "Perfect!"

Gal Gadot is wearing a typical ancient Greek-style tight-fitting battle armor, with a Vulcan sword on his back, a simple shield hanging on his left arm, and a pair of sexy breasts against the battle skirt. Looks so charming...

Standing at the door of the cloakroom, Gal Gadot didn't move, staring at Murphy with a pair of beautiful eyes, raised her long eyebrows, and said, "You'd better be honest, didn't you have this idea a long time ago?"

She knew that Murphy was planning DC's superhero movie before, and it seemed to be related to the Big Three of Justice, so when it was mentioned tonight that she was going to play Diana Prinz, she wasn't particularly surprised.

"No!" Murphy argued, "I just thought of you unconsciously when I added Diana Prinz to this film."

He spread his hands, very innocent, "Honey, who else is more suitable for Wonder Woman than you? You have played countless times."

Hearing this, Gal Gadot couldn't help curling her mouth. She has indeed played Wonder Woman many times, but it was only when she was in private with Murphy, and it added some fun to the two of them.

Seeing his girlfriend was silent, Murphy took two steps forward, walked across from her, and asked, "So you agree?"

Gal Gadot glanced at him without nodding or shaking his head.

This is different from the comedy that Seth Rogen was promised to star in. After all, the bride has very few roles and is more like a cameo, but Wonder Woman is an extremely important member of the Justice League. , which means that she will embark on the path of an actor.

"Didn't you say last time that if you want to make a movie, you will only cooperate with me?" Murphy deliberately mentioned the previous incident on the Rising Sun, "Are you going to go back on your word now? My dear, we only Cameo, that's not really a collaboration."

Frankly speaking, Gal Gadot is not indispensable for Wonder Woman. Murphy insisted that the most important thing is not to consider the movie and the character itself, but to do so, the possibility of Gal Gadot returning to Israel in the future Sex will be smaller.

Although according to his judgment, Gal Gadot is unlikely to return to Israel to settle down even if he ends his studies now, but Murphy will not underestimate the huge state machine in Israel, and the impact that brainwashing propaganda can have on a person since childhood , he didn't want to take any risks.

Indeed, in movies and countless literary works, time and distance are floating clouds in front of true love. Perhaps there are such examples in real society, but there are very few. At least Murphy has been on both sides of the Pacific Ocean for so long, and has never seen.

He is a very realistic person from the beginning to the end, knowing that time and distance can hurt feelings. The distance between Israel and Los Angeles is not so far away.

Murphy brought Gal Gadot closer to his team. In addition to feelings, it will undoubtedly increase the impact of his career. When a person's feelings and career are in Los Angeles, the possibility of leaving North America and returning to Israel will become infinite. Low.

In some respects, Murphy's mind is more complicated than that of Gal Gadot, but in the communication between the two in the past few years, Gal Gadot has never said that he will stay in Los Angeles in the future, but occasionally mentions Ideas for doing something for the Jewish people or for Israel.

As her studies progressed and she grew older, Murphy even felt an indescribable sense of crisis.

He is obsessed with Gal Gadot, Murphy has never denied this, and has never considered that one day the two will occupy one side, then their relationship will fade, and they will eventually take different paths.

"This is different from a cameo, it will consume a lot of time and energy." Gal Gadot is still a little hesitant, "I am studying law..."

"Didn't you take market economy as an elective? Are you still studying entertainment law?" Murphy pulled out the prop sword from her back, "You also joined the film club? Why don't you think about it?"

He said seriously, "I have been lacking a producer who is in charge of the overall situation. Kara used to act as the director. Now that she is the director of the Fox production department, it is impossible to continue to hold this role."

Gal Gadot understood what Murphy meant, pointed to his nose, and asked, "You want me to take on this role in the future?"

"That's right." Murphy spread his hands, "The producers of many big directors in Hollywood are my partners. You can treat acting as a hobby in the future, and then..." (To be continued.)
