[US Entertainment] Hollywood reverses life

A week ago, Marvel's convention center.

"Now there are more and more incidents of racial equality. This time, the incident of Asian equality is very big. I don't know when it will end."

"Now many big film companies in Hollywood are being questioned, why are the protagonists of many commercial films basically white, and there are very few blacks, and Asians are even rarer."

"And now the discussion has been directed at the stories of our Marvel superheroes. The masses have questioned that the heroes we portray are almost all white. The main heroes have always been white, and almost no minority characters have been portrayed."

"Based on what you're saying, this wave will continue and intensify. If our "Iron Man" does not have some minority faces, it will be difficult to convince the audience, especially if we want to attract the 20% of the minority group in the United States. , must set an example.”

"That's right, if some minority faces are brought out, it may win the favor of the public, and it should also be of great benefit to the box office."

"We Marvel must reflect our advanced, that is, on the issue of minorities, so..."

"Are you going to turn Iron Man into a black man...?"

Superheroes have done a lot of skin-changing in the history of superheroes. They are happy to do things like changing the skin color of superheroes as long as it is beneficial to them.

Just like when DC filmed "Suicide Squad", in order to let Will Smith increase the popularity of their own movie, they did not hesitate to change the popular character of dead shooter from white skin to black skin.

But the problem is that rashly changing Tony Stark's skin color will definitely cause dissatisfaction among Marvel fans, so Stark must not choose a minority to play.

Marvel has proposed a new way of thinking, since the main superheroes cannot rashly change their skin color to offend old fans, in order to show Marvel's "justice" and support the politically correct awareness of "minorities".

Marvel executives made a final decision, "We can let a minority woman play Pepper."

So the question comes back to who to choose as Pepper.

Since it is going to be replaced by a minority actor, it will inevitably offend the original old fans, so Marvel must find a minority actor who can convince the public and is very popular with passers-by.

Moreover, it will definitely be unacceptable to change the little pepper from white skin to black skin all at once, so... let's find an Asian.

Speaking of Asians, I don’t know why Marvel immediately thought of Joy, although she is not an actor but a director.

But she is currently the most popular Asian representative in the United States, and she is also the most popular and well-known Asian. Using her can definitely win everyone's favor and minimize the discomfort of fans.

And that H&M commercial made the entire North American region see her exotic style.

But the point is - she can't act.

"What's the matter, Pepper is just a vase role, and you don't need any acting skills to play it."

"That's right, Joey endorsed H&M before and shot a commercial, haven't you watched it? I think her sense of the lens is very good, and judging from the strong response, she is quite eye-catching on the big screen. "

"She is a director herself, so she must know how to deal with the camera. If she is willing to act, we can pay her for a short-term training."

"Many actors have changed careers from models. What acting skills do you think they have? I think if Joey is willing to undergo short-term special training, it should be no problem to make a guest appearance in a commercial film for a vase with not many roles."

"What's more, this vase does not need to act in a fight scene, nor does it need to perform any explicit performances. It is just an ordinary vase without any challenges."

"If Joey is willing to play "Iron Man", this is definitely beneficial to us, and it is also a statement of our political consciousness. And in terms of appearance and various conditions, except that she is not sexy enough, I don't think she has any Much worse."

So, after a whole week of intense discussions at Marvel, the contract was placed in front of Joey.

Now it's Joey's turn to worry.

In fact, she also knows that even if she takes over the role of Little Pepper, everyone knows that she is just a playboy, acting as an actress for fun, because Little Pepper is basically a vase, and it doesn't take much effort. Play across the line.

Indeed, if Marvel invites her to play the Black Widow, she will definitely refuse, because she does not have the acting skills and has no plans to change careers as an actor.

But if she is only playing a vase role with few roles, to be honest, she is a little moved, and she also wants to challenge herself to see how far she can do it.

After all, MAGGIQ is not free right now, and the movie she planned by herself cannot be advanced, and she also wants to take a break and find something else to do.

It would be a good idea to play a vase in a big commercial film.

But she is a serious person. If she really accepts it, even if it is just for fun, she will definitely take it 100% seriously. Serious training in acting courses and delving into roles are also essential.That would actually consume her mind.

Especially movies like "Iron Man" that will definitely be popular in the future, and maybe there will be "Avengers" and so on...

If the acting fails, she will really be sprayed to death, and those fans will definitely scold her, "If you don't do a good job as a director, what are you doing to ruin our superheroes!"

I feel terrible when I think about it!

But after thinking about it for a few days, Joey decided to agree. After all, it would be interesting to challenge himself to play a vase, isn't it?

And the decades of stagnant water in her previous life taught her a truth-there are really not many happy days in life, just do what you want, and why care about other people's opinions.Don't be afraid of failure and give up challenging yourself, in the end you will only regret wasting your time.

The experience in the previous life did not teach Joy much, but it taught her not to be timid in doing things, and life needs to be reckless.

Since she wants to challenge, then go boldly!Maybe a miracle is waiting for you!

What are you afraid of when you are young!If the acting fails, I can come back to make a movie!After all, directing is your main job, as long as you don't miss your main job, it doesn't matter if you miss one or two side jobs!

So, Joey ended up signing a four-movie deal with Marvel!The film salary is not too much, because Marvel deducts it in the first place, and Joey is not a famous actor, but a famous director, so Pepper is paid 200 million per film.

After the contract was signed, Pepper Potts, the little pepper in "Iron Man", finally changed from a blond traditional beauty to an Asian.

Both sides looked at each other and smiled at this daring decision.

Then the film party prepared a three-month short-term acting training course for Joey. They didn't ask much, as long as Joey played a vase quietly in the movie.

*********

Marvel is busy preparing for "Iron Man".

Because Tom Cruise ultimately declined to invest in "Iron Man" and gave up his role as Tony Stark after following up the project for two years, Marvel will now have to choose a suitable candidate from the second-choice actor.

Now they are targeting Robert Downey Jr., and he has flopped in the past few years, and his salary is very low, only 50.Much cheaper than Tom Cruise!

And Marvel has almost decided to adopt Robert Downey Jr. at this moment.Tom Cruise is coming to Marvel.

Marvel's BOSS Kevin Fitch personally received Tom Cruise, and he didn't know his purpose.

Until Tom said to him: "I have thought about it. Regarding the investment in the "Iron Man" project and the role of Tony Stark, I am willing to make more contacts."

Everyone present at Marvel was dumbfounded.

Daring Tom, did you play tricks on us before?Didn't you say that you don't want to continue participating in this project?

Boy, is Tom Cruise really willing to play Tony Stark?

They are all planning to make second-hand preparations!

But Tom has obviously made up his mind to continue participating in this project, and he is not relentless in the amount of investment, and he also firmly agrees to play the role of Iron Man.

Kevin didn't even want to understand what made Tom suddenly figure it out, but it would be the best if Tom was willing to join in. After all, he is now the number one star in Hollywood, the King of Popularity. Although he debuted for more than 20 years, But his appeal has not weakened in the slightest. Having him join the Iron Man is definitely the icing on the cake.

So the entire "IronMan" project is finally about to take its first step.

In fact, Tom didn't change his mind and suddenly felt that this project would work. He just learned that Joey would play the heroine in this movie.

After getting the news, a strange state of mind haunted him.

He didn't want to hand over Joey's first or only on-screen couple image to others, and he didn't want to see Joey and others playing a couple on screen.

Moreover, since Joey agreed, she must do it with a 100% hard work mentality, so no matter whether he is optimistic about this project or not, he hopes that this project will be successful, because it is related to Joey's interests.And his joining can at least guarantee that this project will not fail.

He wanted Joey to star in a good, successful movie without a hitch.For this reason, he is willing to add himself to this bureau.

Or, from a deeper level of thought, he hopes to have more opportunities to interact, get along or get to know Joey in depth.

Even though he contradictoryly wanted to keep a distance from him, he still couldn't do it in his heart.

The author has something to say: I actually like Nini Nini very much! ! !

However, you can’t be too bothered about the left female ticket and the right female ticket, so in this dimension, Iron Man is not Nini QAQ

How about a female ticket Nini (serious face)
