Hollywood Starts with Animation

After ten days...

The shooting base of Zucker 1.

"Boss, the movie "Shark Shore" has achieved box office results of 48 million US dollars since its release in North America for more than ten days; the British market, which was first released in overseas markets, has achieved box office results of 6.2 million US dollars after its release in 3 days; in the next week Within a short time, the film "Shark Beach" will be launched in France, Italy, Spain, Germany and other film markets one after another."

Alexander reported as an assistant.

"It was released in 18 days and made $48 million, which is not bad."

Zu Ke, who was sitting on the director's monitor Qian, couldn't help laughing after listening to this: "Although this box office score is lower than Zack's previous work "Spartan 300 Warriors"."

Alexander's mouth twitched.

Is Shark Shore $48 million in 18 days, just not bad?

Good guy, this means that the heads of other film companies didn't hear it, otherwise it wouldn't be worth jumping up and yelling at Zucker.

Not all films are Spider-Man, which grossed more than $100 million in its three-day opening weekend.

Don't watch some Hollywood movies, the box office often exceeds hundreds of millions of dollars in the first week, but... look at the production costs and publicity expenses of these blockbuster movies...

The production cost of "Shark Shore" was only $12 million.

The publicity budget is worth more than $10 million.

On the whole, the "Shark Shore" movie is dead, that is, a medium-budget movie, no, to be precise, the production cost of a low-budget movie is not much higher.

It is very rare to be able to harvest such a box office.

"Boss, if you are too modest, you can talk here, but don't talk outside." Alexander reminded.

"Oh, why?" Zucker smiled.

Alexander gritted his teeth and said, "I'm worried that you will be beaten to death!"

Zucker's face suddenly stiffened.

Don't look at the 18-day North American box office results of the "Shark Shore" movie,

Only $48 million, but this movie has a lot of stamina!

The drop in the weekly box office data is really small, and the biggest drop has not exceeded 25%.

After the long-term screening, the North American box office of the movie "Shark Shore" exceeded 100 million US dollars, which is not surprising!

Director Zach Snyder is again famous after the movie "300 Spartans".

"Los Angeles Film Weekly" published an article: "Zach Snyder is the most promising director of 21st century Hollywood!"

"Time" magazine entertainment edition, followed by an article saying: "From the top director of the song MV to the first-line director of Hollywood - Zach Snyder!"

A "Spartan 300 Warriors" shows the world that Zach Snyder is a potential director; and this low-cost movie "Shark Shore", which is a big box office hit at the moment, completely let Zack Snyder entered the attention of mainstream film circles;

Six major Hollywood companies, including Warner, Columbia, Universal, and Paramount, have been eyeing him one after another. This is the best proof for Zack Snyder!

At the same time, as the heroine of the film, Salma Hayek, the "outdated actress", also swept away the previous decadence.

Once again become a media darling.

Not only that, the film company producers who had previously dismissed her have been chasing after her in recent days.

Hollywood has always been a vanity fair of highs and lows!

......

"Mr. Wald, there are still 15 minutes before the official start of filming of the film "The Cracking Drummer"."

At this time, James Wen (Wen Ziren), the assistant director of the film, came to Zhu Ke's side.

Hearing this, Zucker nodded: "Okay, I see. You will immediately make a final check on the lighting, scene arrangement, props, makeup..."

"No problem." Wen Ziren agreed and went back to work again.

At this moment, Zhu Ke looked at the huge crew of "The Bursting Drummer" and looked at the busy departments, and couldn't help but feel the pride in his heart.

This is Zucker's third solo directorial work!

Although "Boomstick" is only a low-budget film, with a total production cost of only $3 million, it is the lowest-cost film in a series of films produced by Wald Pictures this year, but Zucker still feels that it will create a miracle.

The most important thing is...The crew configuration of "Boom Drummer" is extremely luxurious.

Movie: "Boom Drummer";

Director: Zucker Wald;

Assistant Director: James Wen (Wen Ziren);

Writers: Zucker Wald, Ray Warner;

Actor: Damien Chazelle;

Male No. 2: J.K. Simmons;

Female No. 1: Megan Fox;

Male No. 3: Gavin O'Connor;

Male No. 4: Tom Hardy;

......

The other series of only a few lines, or just an appearance of passers-by supporting roles, are also played by future Hollywood demons such as Robert Pattinson and Ellen Page.

"Boss, what you call an extremely luxurious crew, to be honest, I didn't see it." Alexander sneered.

Zhu Ke shook his head and laughed: "You don't understand! They are not very good now, ten years later, you will see!"

For now, the biggest card of the entire crew is the director Zucker himself. Of course, there is also the "all-rounder" Bob Dylan who provides the soundtrack for the film.

What about other people?

The most well-known cast member for Zucker's version of "The Bursting Drummer" is J.K. Simmons, who plays the supporting actor "The Devil's Mentor."

J.K. Simmons?

When it comes to this name, it is estimated that not many people have heard of it!

Do not doubt!

Even local Hollywood moviegoers, not many people know about it. After all, J.K. Simmons, a veteran actor who has been in Hollywood for decades and starred in dozens of movies, mostly plays supporting roles in small roles.

However, his face is familiar!

In the "Spider-Man" movie, Peter Parker works for the newspaper, the stingy, gun-filled newspaper owner, played by J.K. Simmons.

"Spider-Man: Far From Home 2019", "DC: Justice League", "Terminator: Genesis" and a series of well-known movies, he J.K. Simmons has appeared in minor supporting roles.

He is a proper "familiar" old actor.

"Boss, apart from the old showman J.K. Simmons, do you think the other actors in the cast will be able to become famous in the future?!" Alexander looked at Zucker in disbelief.

"Ha ha!"

Zucker immediately laughed: "It's not just these actors in the crew who will become famous in the future. I think James Wen, the assistant director of our crew, and the second screenwriter, Ray Warner, have a bright future for them!"

Megan Fox, Tom Hardy, Robert Pattinson...  

Which of these young actors signed by Jade Bird Agency will not be famous in the future?

At this moment, James Wing, the assistant director of the crew of "Booming Drummer", will be the man who will be called "the king of Hollywood horror movies" in the future!

A Chainsaw movie says it all!

The DC superhero movie "Aquaman" pushed director James Wen to a higher level.

The second screenwriter of the crew, Ray Warner, is also a well-known gold screenwriter in the future, known as the "Mother of Chainsaws".

"Alexander, don't believe it. I'm very sure whether their future is bright or not." Zucker was full of confidence.

Alexander smiled, not much.

Hey, his own boss is so confident, as a subordinate, how can he be tough?

In short, he was skeptical.
