"Well, if you don't go, you won't go." David glanced at Daniel's expression, without any sign of going to see it, and simply changed the subject, "Then what are your plans for the second part of "Night at the Museum" ? Do we shoot it ourselves, or continue working with Fox.”

"In principle, we shoot ourselves."

Daniel replied without hesitation.

Since DD Films has the sole proprietorship of filming, there is no need to share the cake with Fox. When the agreement was signed, Fox had already recognized this fact.

"However, try not to embarrass Fox too much."

David frowned and nodded, "Okay."

"However, it seems that you have a bit too much work. The three commercial series "Pirate", "Bourne Shadow" and "Natural Night" almost account for more than half of your production, if you don't plan to reduce production."

Hearing this, Daniel finally showed a bit distressed expression.

The more commercial series, the better. Daniel has gradually begun to understand this truth. He is considering ending the "Bourne Shadow" series. In fact, he has already made this decision. But whether it's Universal or Greenglass, he hasn't communicated with them yet, so he doesn't know much about their thinking. Greengrass is okay, he probably doesn't want to repeat his work, mainly for Universal, "Bourne Shadow 3" is about to be released, it is bound to be a success, at this time, you tell Universal that you don't want to continue Acting in the role is likely to cause greater conflicts. The global box office of 700 to 800 million is absolutely unacceptable for Universal.

Even if Daniel and Greengrass give up, Universal will not give up the idea, but the risk will be much greater.

After Matt Damon didn't participate in the original, Universal hired Jeremy Renner, and editor Gilroy took over as director. After Daniel left, I don't know who they will find to continue the story.

"There is no Bourne 4."

"Huh?" David was taken aback. Immediately, his eyes widened, "You have decided to quit "Spy Shadow", have you communicated?"

Shaking his head, "Not yet, I plan to communicate with them in these two days. Not only "The Bourne", the filming rate of "Pirates of the Caribbean" must also be reduced. It may be more appropriate to make a film in three or even four years. "Night at the Museum" is set for a sequel first."

David's eyes got bigger and bigger, and he opened his mouth, trying to get the words out. "Danny, what do you plan to do? Quit commercial films? Or just slowly stop making films?"

"No, no, no, but continuing to shoot these films, it will be a little tiring for me, and the audience will be tired too. I am shooting "Avatar", and there may be other projects. How can I stop making commercial films. I As long as there are no commercial films released in three years. Soon the popularity will drop a level, and now is not the time."

David breathed a sigh of relief.

Daniel's withdrawal from the daily operation of DD Films has already made him a little terrified, if he has to make more decisions. I'm afraid DD Pictures will face much more difficulties.

...

Daniel's team and Universal have communicated about good opportunities, from Sally's level to Kusa's level. Finally, there is a direct dialogue between Daniel and Stacey.

Global conditions are also heading higher.

Offered an invincible sky-high price of 3000+20%, delayed the shooting frequency of the sequel, and introduced DD Films for joint shooting—all of which were rejected by Daniel in the end.

"Stacy. It's not that we don't think we can't get better," Daniel said, standing in front of the glass window overlooking Malibu's beautiful white-sand beach. "If I just wanted something, I'll tell you honestly, no I will threaten with not filming. I trust Universal, and I believe that we will be able to sit down and discuss any issues. Therefore, this is not a question of conditions, not a higher salary, a higher share, nor a desire for profits. It's just because I think "The Bourne Movie" should have only three parts. For me, there are only three parts in the plan. The story of Jason Bourne and the story of Luburum. Too many sequels are not suitable, for me. Of course, I understand the operating pressure of Universal, and I understand the importance of a big hit sequel. However, not every sequel will become 007, Stacey , you should understand this, Universal will have better projects, more profitable movies.

What's more, "Bourne" would not be unpopular without me, and people would love to see a new spy story instead of a long and stinky Bourne sequel. "

By the time the communication level rose to Daniel and Stacey, basically both parties understood that there was no room for redemption.

In the end, Daniel just agreed to cooperate with Universal Pictures' promotional pace.

At least the negative impact of his leaving Jason Bourne must be minimized.

It's a pity that this plan was disrupted, by Paul Greenglass.

This big mouth, when he was on the talk show, said that he would not direct the sequel.

Of course the host would not miss such a hot point, and then he explained the reason in a very "real" way.

"The story is originally three episodes, and the rest is a new story. I have no plan to repeat the experience of "Bourne". What's more, Daniel Sandler will not continue to play Bourne. I don't think he After leaving, "Bourne Shadow" still has the significance of directing."

The ratings of this talk show have soared a lot, thanks to Greenglass' revelation.

It wasn't until he saw the overwhelming news and discussions that he realized that he had made a small mistake—of course, it was a headache for Universal Pictures. It's a pity that a director like Greengrass, who has gained both fame and fortune, is a scarce resource in Hollywood. Just like an actor with great appeal like Daniel, Universal can't do anything to him—not to mention, Universal still hopes to work in other places. Looking for him to cooperate on the project.

Daniel had to come out and clean up the mess.

"A lot of friends have asked me about this, and yes, I'm not going to continue Bourne's story for the simple reason that Bourne's story is just right here. It's time for Bourne to turn a new page, a new one. Stories, new faces, not always Bourne haunted. I think it's a good thing for fans and Bourne franchise. It's like the Prince of Elf from The Lord of the Rings trilogy, I'm very impressed There is no less love and nostalgia for this character than anyone else. But that's it, we need to constantly face the end and the beginning. Goodbye, Jason Bourne!"

Goodbye, Jason Bourne!

Universal quickly produced a short film, editing a lot of Bourne's scenes, and finally left a back view that is fading away.

The bold subtitle of "Goodbye, Bourne" is like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of all movie fans.

"Really, when I saw that scene, my tears fell unconsciously. But indeed, as Daniel said, Bourne's story ends here. A cool and amazing Bourne will always be remembered We remember."

A f2f user said so on his homepage, which aroused countless resonances. (To be continued.)

ps: I saw someone in the book review area say "I feel relieved seeing the poor grades", not much anger, but a little sad, wrote 1.3 million words, and got this evaluation, it is still a failure, hey.
