The filming cost of the first "Charlie's Angels" was US$93 million, with a North American box office of US$125 million, an overseas box office of US$138 million, and a global box office of US$264 million.

The filming cost of the second "Charlie's Angels 2" rose to 120 million US dollars, but the North American box office dropped to 100 million US dollars, the overseas box office rose slightly to 158 million US dollars, and the global box office was 258 million US dollars.

The producer of the film, Sony Pictures, believes that the "Charlie's Angels" series has lost its value for adaptation, and the audience has fallen into aesthetic fatigue for the three **** and beautiful women, resulting in no third sequel film in the end.

Of course, the higher and higher ratio of remuneration to box office is also one of the reasons for Sony Pictures.

In this regard, Ryan has no good way.

Films with female protagonists generally have two shooting styles, one is to attract female audiences, and the other is normal commercial films.

The original version of "Charlie's Angels" is a commercial film through and through. The audience is mainly male, and it is not a feminist film.

Ryan didn't want to change that.

To put it bluntly, "Charlie's Angels" is an action movie that focuses on women and sexiness. Too many changes will only backfire.

As for how to shoot the third sequel film!

The best way is to let time gradually forget everything.

Shoot two films first, and then temporarily freeze the shooting plan.

After a few years, when the audience gradually forgets the first two films, Orion Pictures will restart the shooting plan of the third sequel film.

People always like nostalgia, and there are new generations of audiences.

In addition, the crew of "The Walking Dead 2" has already started filming.

The crew of "Chicago" has also entered the filming stage and is expected to be released at the end of next year.

Other sequel films such as "X-Men 2" and "Tomb Raider 3" and the shooting projects left over by MGM are also advancing steadily, and Ryan does not need to worry about it.

A very strange phenomenon can be seen here. The films planned by Orion Films are almost all adapted films, and there is no original film.

This is also a common phenomenon that has gradually emerged in Hollywood since the beginning of the 20th century. The risks brought by adaptations and sequels are far lower than original films.

Even Orion Pictures doesn't have any big investment plans for original films in the short term.

In early June, the crew of "Spider-Man 2" came to New Zealand and officially started filming.

The reason why I chose to shoot continuously, instead of waiting for the first "Spider-Man" to be released, is to start preparing for the sequel film plan.

Mainly because of the actor's salary.

The three actors in the film run through the three films. If they are filmed one by one, Orion Films will inevitably pay a high salary and box office share.

However, by choosing to shoot continuously like the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, you can avoid the salary increase.

The production cost of the original first "Spider-Man" was only 139 million US dollars, and the second "Spider-Man 2" directly rose to 200 million US dollars, and the shooting cost of the third "Spider-Man 3" was as high as 258 million US dollars.

In addition to increasing the cost of special effects, almost all the remaining money was spent on film remuneration.

On the first day when he came to the Wellington studio, the crew was surrounded by many reporters, and Ryan could at least see media reporters from several countries.

This is undoubtedly the impact of the global sales of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" and "The Lord of the Rings: The Knight of the Two Towers".

""Spider-Man 2" will not interact with the characters in the "X-Men" series of films for the time being, but will connect to the plot of the first "Spider-Man"."

"It's going to be a different kind of superhero movie than 'X-Men', 'Batman', 'Superman'."

"In the future, Orion Pictures does not rule out creating a universe that belongs to Marvel Comics."

Facing a crowd of media reporters, Ryan kept the topic on "Spider-Man" and refused to answer other irrelevant questions.

Even, a lot of surprising news was revealed in the words.

A superhero movie like no other!

In the future, Orion Films plans to create a universe that belongs to Marvel Comics!

The reporters at the scene were so excited that they couldn't help but focus on Avi Allard, the president of Marvel Studios.

As we all know, Marvel Studios is mainly responsible for shooting superhero movies.

"Orion Pictures and Marvel Pictures will not be limited to "Spider-Man", "X-Men", "Blade Runner" and other films."

"In the future, we will create a larger-scale superhero film shooting plan." Avi-Allard broke out a big news.

Although the Avengers plan was not clearly stated, it is also vaguely reminiscent of the ambitions of Orion Pictures and Marvel Pictures.

In the future, it will not only be "Spiderman", "X-Men", "Blade Warrior" and other films, there will be more superheroes on the screen.

In fact, the Marvel comics universe is not a new idea. Marvel comics put forward the concept of the universe world many years ago.

It's just that what Marvel Comics proposes is the comic universe, while Ryan talks about the universe that belongs to the movie.

The two are fundamentally different.

As soon as the universe of the movie Marvel Comics was brought up, and Orion Pictures announced that the members of the "X-Men" would shoot their own films in the future, it quickly attracted the attention of a large number of media and Hollywood people.

"A universe that belongs to Marvel Comics?"

In the Warner Bros. headquarters office, Dan Logan put down the newspaper in his hand and muttered to himself: "Ryan Gosling and Orion Pictures want to create a superhero universe? Or the X-Men universe?" !"

"Even, the Avengers!"

This kind of idea is not only unique to Marvel Comics, DC Comics also has a similar concept of the universe world.

It's just that whether such a concept is proposed by Ryan Gosling and Orion Pictures, or by Marvel Comics, it is naturally completely different.

Ryan Gosling will not talk casually, his every move represents the attitude of Orion Pictures and Marvel Pictures.

Dan Logan was lost in thought, considering what lay behind this notion.

Whether it's the superhero universe, or just the X-Men universe, or even the Avengers.

This will be a huge plan. Perhaps since the acquisition of Marvel Comics, Orion Pictures has always had a very huge plan.

At this time, the phone on the desk rang, and Dan Logan came back to his senses, reached out to pick up the phone and asked, "What's going on!"

Soon the secretary's voice came over the phone, "Boss, you guessed right, Orion Films does have a huge shooting plan."

"Only a few high-level officials know about the specific content of the plan, and there is no useful information at all."

"I see." Dan Logan hung up the phone with a very serious face, "What is Ryan Gosling thinking about?"

But it's clear that whatever the details of the plan, it's going to be one that would shock Hollywood.

"Even if Ryan Gosling and Orion Pictures want to create an Avengers alliance, it won't affect Warner Bros."

Dan-Logan seemed to be talking to himself, "DC Comics also has many superheroes."

"If Ryan Gosling and Orion Films can make the Avengers, we can do the same with the Justice League."

Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman are more famous than the Avengers. .

Thinking of this, Dan Logan's heart was filled with enthusiasm. He wished that Orion Films could launch the Avengers plan as soon as possible, so that he could persuade other senior executives and the board of directors of the company to create a Justice League plan.

Of course, it is not easy to build a Justice League, let alone set up a project hastily, but requires a long planning and preparation process, just like what Ryan Gosling and Orion Pictures are doing now.

Immediately, Dan Logan picked up the phone and called his secretary, "Pay attention to every move of the "Spider-Man" and "X-Men" movies."

"Any news about Marvel Studios should be notified to me as soon as possible."

"In addition, I plan to attend the premiere of "Spider-Man" at the end of the year."

If it wasn't for the fear of being rejected by Orion Films, he would have preferred to participate in the internal screening of "Spider-Man".

Ryan didn't expect that just the concept of a cosmic world reminded Dan Logan of the Avengers plan, and even wanted to promote Warner Bros.'s Justice League project.

Still, Ryan wouldn't care if he knew.

Warner Bros. is not Orion Pictures and Marvel Pictures. Dan Logan is only one of the top management, not only need to convince the rest of Warner Bros. executives and the board of directors, but also Time Warner and DC Comics.

What's more, the whole plan cannot be completed overnight, and it needs a series of superhero movies as a foreshadowing.

Not to mention Warner Bros., even Orion Pictures has no plans to film the Avengers for the time being.

At the same time, the crew of "Spider-Man 2" officially started filming.

Since it was the original cast of the previous crew, except for a few actors, there were almost no major changes, so naturally there was no talk of a running-in period.

Can quickly enter the shooting state.
