"Lon Wiseman!"

Ryan showed a strange look and said, "The script he wrote?"

"Original script? Or adapted script!"

He's no stranger to Len-Wiseman, having even worked with Orion Films a few times.

It's just that Len Wiseman is not an editor, director, or producer, but an editor.

He has edited commercial films such as "Independence Day", "Men in Black", "Godzilla", and participated in the editing of "Spider-Man".

"Obviously, it's an adaptation."

Greg Silver continued: "Some time ago, Len Wiseman took a fancy to the adaptation rights of a novella, which was a novel "Monster Love" published by Nancy Collins in 1994."

"It tells about the war between the two races of werewolves and vampires."

Listening to Greg Silver's introduction, Ryan took the script and skimmed through it, which gave him a very familiar feeling, as if he had seen this film in his previous life.

Greg Silver went on to say: "The copyright price proposed by the original author of this novel is very high, and it also involves a White Wolf game company."

"Len Wiseman can't afford the expensive copyright fees, so he hopes to cooperate with Orion Films and direct the film himself."

Hearing this, Ryan thought of a movie in a trance.

Without any copyright, this film was directly put on the screen by the film company and the distribution company, and then it was undoubtedly brought to court by the author of the original work and the game company, and finally the two parties negotiated a solution in private.

Needless to say, it must have paid a large amount of copyright fees.

Although there is no shortage of borderline operations in Hollywood film companies, especially for foreign works, shooting without copyright, or even putting them on the screen, is nothing new.

However, this is generally not done for works from European and American countries, otherwise 100% of them will be sued in court.

Similar infringement incidents against an American author and American game company are very rare.

In addition, the film in the previous life was very similar to the original novel and game, so the film production company had no choice but to settle.

"Orion Films can come forward to buy the copyright of this novel adaptation and cooperate in filming." Ryan quickly made a decision.

Even if it wasn't the movie he remembered from his previous life, he still planned to buy it.

Of course, if it is an original script, that is another matter.

Orion Films receives a lot of original scripts every week, more than 99% of them are still there, and only a very small number of scripts that look full of creativity will choose to buy.

Remember, just buy it, not prepare to shoot the film.

Pay a few thousand dollars, buy it to fill the Orion Pictures script library, and keep eating the ashes.

The only difference between the two is that the latter can earn several thousand dollars, and there is a certain chance that they will set up a project and prepare a crew in the future.

As for just taking out a script, a film company will put it on the screen, which is impossible in Hollywood.

Every Hollywood film company has an extremely strict approval process, and it is impossible to easily approve a creative script, unless it is a famous director or producer.

It is no exaggeration to say that the more creative a script an ordinary editor is, the less likely it is for a Hollywood film company to easily set up a project and prepare a crew.

On the contrary, some scripts that seem to have a bad storyline may be put on the screen by the film company.

The plot of the story is old-fashioned, but it still appears in each film, which shows that the audience likes such a plot, as long as the investment cost is controlled, it may not be impossible to give it a try.

For example, "Pretty Woman", starring Julia Roberts, is a cheesy story, and the plot of the whole film has almost nothing new.

However, under the direction of Gary Marshall, the film became a cult classic, grossing $179 million in North America and $285 million overseas.

In contrast, the content and plot of James Huang's "Universe Pursuit" is absolutely eye-catching, and it can be said to be full of creativity.

But such a creative film ended in a rush.

"However, Len Wiseman has to prove he has what it takes to direct the film."

"We must also control the budget of the film." Ryan specifically instructed.

He was a little dissatisfied with Joseph-McGinty-Nitcher's performance just now.

Now that Len Wiseman is a new director, Ryan is somewhat worried.

Fortunately, Hollywood crews are often not decided by the director. It is the producer who can really decide the style of the film. The director needs to shoot according to the producer's requirements.

Of course, if Len Wiseman's performance is too bad, he will not hesitate to change a director.

It was getting dark outside, Ryan invited everyone to have a sumptuous dinner together, and drove back to Neverland.

On his first day back in Los Angeles, Ryan moved in from his mansion in Bel Air.

"What do you think of Nicole's impact on the Oscars in March!"

Going to sit in front of the sofa in the living room, Charlize Theron was only wearing a transparent silk pajamas, and she had just taken a shower, and she could smell a good smell from a distance.

"Oscar Best Actress!" Ryan thought for a while, and closed "Monster Love", which he bought at the bookstore on the way back.

"Whether it is commercial or artistic, "Moulin Rouge" is a good film, and Nicole's performance in the film is also very good."

"Unfortunately, the timing of this film's release is not good. If there were no 9/11 incidents, she would probably have won an Oscar statuette."

Having said that, Ryan couldn't help feeling very sorry for Nicole Kidman.

This is bad luck.

"Then who do you think will win the Best Actress statuette?" Charlize Theron asked curiously while looking at Ryan.

"Halle-Berry." Ryan said a name that surprised her.

"Why can't it be Nicole or Sissy Spacek?" Charlize Theron froze for a moment, then asked.

You know, Halle-Berry is not only a black actor, but the "Dance of the Deadman" starring her is only acceptable from an artistic perspective.

Compared with "Moulin Rouge" starring Nicole Kidman and "Immortal Love" starring Sissy Spacek, it is obviously a bit worse.

"It's not about acting, it's about politics and race."

Ryan said very simply: "The high-level government needs the support of the black community. Halle-Berry happens to be a black actor, and it is a kind of political correctness to promote the status of black actors in Hollywood."

Without the impact of the 9/11 incident, he estimated that Nicole Kidman might not have a chance to win this year's Oscar for Best Actress.

Although Sissy Spacek is a popular candidate for this year's Oscar for Best Actress, she even won the Best Actress of the Year Award from the Los Angeles and New York Film Critics Association, the National Association of Film Critics, and the "Independent The 17th Independent Spirit Awards, also known as the Oscars.

This is the Oscars of the independent film world.

However, Sissy Spacek is already in her fifties and won an Oscar for Best Actress in 1981 for "The Miner's Daughter".

She won't be shelling out big public relations dollars this time.

So Nicole Kidman has a very high chance of winning the Best Actress Oscar.

It's a pity that she was unlucky. After the 9/11 incident, the US government needed black people. The Oscar jury must award the best actress statuette to a black actor.

This is one thing that cannot be changed.

Charlize Theron opened her mouth, and finally couldn't help but whisper, "Damn politics."

Of course, this is not racial discrimination. Don’t forget that she grew up in South Africa. As a national treasure of South Africa, she naturally does not discriminate against blacks and ethnic minorities.

But it's hard to like when it's full of dirty politics.

"So Jennifer Connelly gave up the nomination for Best Actress from the very beginning and focused her public relations on Best Supporting Actress?" Charlize Theron suddenly thought of one thing.

The same is this year's Oscar hit film "A Beautiful Mind" actress Jennifer - Connelly.

It seems that instead of declaring the best actress award, she declared for the best supporting actress award and was successfully nominated. UU reading

"That's just one factor."

Ryan moved his position, leaned close to Charlize-Theron, smelled the seductive fragrance from her body, and said: "She didn't have many shots in "A Beautiful Mind", how much is the best actress declaration?" It's a little bit reluctant, why not directly apply for the Best Supporting Actress award."

As he spoke, Ryan couldn't help but put his hands on Charlize Theron, and stroked it gently, feeling soft and smooth.

Ignoring Ryan's little gesture, Charlize Theron glanced at the novel and said, "New filming project!"

"Probably." Ryan stroked for a while, then simply put his hand under Charlize-Theron's pajamas, "If all goes well, we can probably prepare for the crew to shoot this year."

The werewolf and vampire movie in his memory had a very small investment, and the box office could only be considered a living.

However, if this film could continue to be filmed in the previous life, it must have made a lot of money.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the film studio to turn it into a series.

"Okay, Charlie, we need to change the subject." Ryan couldn't help but bowed his head and kissed, from the chin to the attractive red lips.

Charlize Theron sticks out her dexterous and slippery tongue, and the two are entangled with each other.

Soon there were gasps in the living room.

Feeling the wonderful pleasure brought by Charlize-Theron, Ryan couldn't help but think of the Dior real me commercial she shot in her previous life. Whether it is her appearance, figure, temperament, or her voice, it is simply perfect.

No, it should be said to be a kind of enjoyment, both visual and spiritual.
