Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

Zack Schneider breathed a sigh of relief.

Start work right away, he really can't stand it, he is too tired.

But if it's just preparation, don't be in such a hurry, you can take your time.

Of course, it is certainly not comparable to a simple vacation, but this is no way, who let him pretend to be forced, naturally there is a price.

Outside, Ghost Rider, in the cold period of May, created a good box office no less than the summer file, which surprised countless film companies.

However, in May, it is not the choice of other big film companies.

Therefore, as the only blockbuster film in this period, Ghost Rider's first-day box office was right at the same time as its investment.

It doesn't seem so surprising either.

In the absence of competitors, other studios have no interest in spending money to fight Ghost Rider, just for a week.

Ghost Rider has achieved more than 120 million box office results.

After the end of a full release cycle, it is no surprise that the US market alone will be able to recover its costs.

The real place to make money is the overseas market and the surrounding area.

Among them, the jacket and motorcycle of the Ghost Rider are the most widely sold peripherals.

And the manufacturer of Harley-Davidson, in order to rub this heat, rushed to the Sunrise Company and signed a license with them to sell each Ghost Rider Harley motorcycle.

You can get a thousand dollars in profit sharing.

To put it bluntly, it is a leek that combines to cut fans.

This appearance alone is at least a premium of several thousand dollars, not a small wealth, and really can't afford it.

Jacket sets, not to mention hundreds of thousands of jacket sets sold in seven days.

Net profit, there are also tens of millions of dollars.

After all, the surrounding area has more premium than simple clothes, and it is normal for the price to be high and the profit to be high.

Similarly, with the sale of the Ghost Knight, Nicolas Cage's fame spread further.

Compared to Nicolas Cage's previous films.

The Matrix and the Evil Spirit Rider really spread his popularity all over the world.

From this moment on, Nicolas Cage truly became a world-renowned star.

In Hollywood, the status of actors is actually ranked according to photo remuneration.

The reverse can also be understood, the higher the salary, the higher the status in the circle.

After The Matrix, Nicolas Cage's salary has risen to $20 million.

Before that, he already had a number of movies that were very good at the box office.

It wasn't until after the Matrix exploded that this pushed him to the throne of superstars in one fell swoop.

In the current Hollywood, there are only a handful of more than 20 million US dollars at the box office, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and two or three other Hollywood superstars.

Twenty million is the threshold for the default superstar.

And above the superstar, there is also a title, superstar, or global superstar.

Laying the foundation through the Matrix, Ghost Rider carries forward.

Nicolas Cage, successfully promoted to become a superstar, and the most direct embodiment of superstars is that they are not just paid.

While the salary should exceed 20 million US dollars, they also have to get a part of the box office share according to the specific situation of the film.

It is said that Tom Cruise, in the Mission Impossible follow-up movie, has received 15% of the global box office share.

This is an absolute superstar in Hollywood.

In his latest movie Green Lantern, he received a salary of 30 million US dollars and a 5% share of the global box office.

The reason why Warner Bros. is willing to pay such a high price is to use his fame to drive the big sale of Green Lantern, so as to make the DC Cinematic Universe as a whole come alive.

In the case of Superman's defeat, in order to make the probability of Green Lantern success higher, Warner Bros. did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money and invite superstars, just to make this cinematic universe successful.

Nicolas Cage, the next other films, as long as they are commercial films, the salary is definitely more than 20 million US dollars and box office share.

Of course, as a friend, and as someone who single-handedly made him a superstar.

Kevin was still able to get a friendship price from him.

The sequel to Ghost Rider can be invited to Cage to continue filming for 25 million US dollars, without any shares.

Subsequent cameos in other movies will also be charged cheaply depending on the duration.

Of course, as the main force in the future Avengers, Kevin is definitely going to focus on it.

Fast forward to June.

Ghost Rider has just been released, and Iron Man's publicity has begun again.

Warm up through Spider-Man, as well as Ghost Rider.

Iron Man, who enjoyed the continuation of the popularity of these two movies, directly took down 60% of the film volume from the hands of the theater party.

As a warm-up time for the summer season, although it is not as good as the blockbusters in July, there are also many movies released by small film companies.

Being able to take down 60% of the films is already a theater side that recognizes the power of the Marvel Universe.

It can be expected that if Marvel movies continue to be successful, in the future, Marvel movies will get more films in theaters.

Dominate all schedules.

In the society of capital, it is the most tangible thing to be able to make money for cinemas.

As long as it is profitable, what big companies will not work in front of them.
