Chapter 658： Restriction clause
The contract signed between Marvel Entertainment and Robert Downey Jr. will definitely change in due course in the future and cannot remain unchanged. However, with this agreement, just like Captain America and Thor, the pay will be relatively reasonable. The position, not the super sky-high price, it is impossible to reproduce the once-rumored single film pay of 70 to 80 million US dollars.
With long-term appointments in hand, Marvel Entertainment has a certain degree of initiative.
However, long-term contracts will also have a negative impact. Once the actor's contract expires, the possibility of continuing to cooperate will become smaller.
No matter how high or low the salary is, it is bound to happen.
If the film is successful one after another, it can bring large sums of money to the main actor and become a popular movie star, but if you play a role all the year round, when you make a lot of money, you will be mentally burnt out.
If the actor himself is a bit ambitious, he will definitely find ways to create a career other than superhero movies.
To paraphrase a very positive sentence: long-term performances in super-English films cannot bring breakthroughs to the acting career. Most visionary actors will seek change after making enough money.
When it comes to the producer, even if the actors have long-term contract restrictions, as the film succeeds, they need to continue to increase their salary. When the actor's salary is piled up to a certain level, replacing new actors can reduce a large part of the salary.
Of course, there will be actors who choose to continue working together.
After all, most actors are ultimately for fame and income, and successful commercial films can give them.
Moreover, many actors have left the role of the successful series, and they have dropped more than two levels from fame to appeal.
With Marvel Entertainment officially signing a contract with Robert Downey Jr., Ronan, who has not shown up, also took time to meet Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Levine.
A very ordinary meeting, like a producer meeting other actors, as if Ronan didn't pay much attention to Robert Downey Jr.
Ronan, even the CEO of Marvel Entertainment, Avi Allard, never appeared during the negotiation and signing process with Robert Downey Jr., but he was sending a message to Robert Downey Jr.: We are not Paying special attention to you, Iron Man is not necessary for you.
Frankly speaking, the former Tony Stark and Robert Downey Jr., who has accomplished whom?
From Ronan’s own point of view, he is slightly biased towards Robert Downey Jr. This is a suitable role. At the most suitable time, he met the most suitable actor.
But no one can ignore the huge role that Susan Levine played in the middle.
Therefore, when they met, Ronan focused more on Susan Levine.
"Ms. Levine, I have heard people talk about you a long time ago." Ronan shook hands with Susan Levine: "I've seen you made "Deadly Cradle" and "Ghost Man", very good works."
Susan Levine said politely: "I can't compare with Mr. Anderson, I can't get a good result at this level."
After speaking, she laughed: "This time I can cooperate with Relativity Entertainment, Donny and I..."
Susan Levine promptly pushed Robert Downey Jr. to the stage, in a posture that was completely unmarried and unmarried: "We are very honored that Mr. Anderson is willing to provide this opportunity. Downey has always wanted to thank him in person."
This is undoubtedly a very clever woman, and she also knows the rules of survival in Hollywood.
Robert Downey Jr. stepped forward at the right time and smiled and shook hands with Ronan: "Mr. Anderson, this is the second time we have met. Thank you very much for giving you the opportunity to play Iron Man."
Ronan shook his hand: "You are welcome, after all, your audition performance is very good, which impressed Kevin."
Robert Downey Jr. added: "In any case, I will always be grateful to Mr. Anderson and Relativity Entertainment Group."
Ronan stopped being polite and said directly: "Then let us continue our long-term and happy cooperation."
Robert Downey Jr. said quickly: "I will do my best for Iron Man."
Susan Levine said at the right time: "Downey has already begun to make preliminary preparations."
Ronan could see that time and energy had made Robert Downey Jr. make a change, and his chaotic mind had become sober.
More importantly, Robert Downey Jr. has a very good fiancee.
"I believe this." Ronan said with a smile.
He couldn't help but glanced at Susan Levine more, probably this woman was the key to Robert Downey Jr's change.
This Jewish woman is not tall and looks unremarkable. At least in the beautiful Hollywood, it is very difficult to enter the second gear, but her vision is terrifying.
To a certain extent, a woman looking for a husband is like an investment. Susan Levine has undoubtedly invested in a super-potential stock, and when the super-potential stock has no signs of exploding, she suppressed the bargaining chip. .
Ronan remembers that he once watched the “Holmes”. Guy Ritchie specifically mentioned the Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey couple at that time, saying that Downey and Susan’s marriage was the most perfect in Hollywood. "Symbiotic marriage", they have had many experiences together.
She also said that Susan is a very discerning producer. She could see Downey's potential is good, and found that Downey was not as uncomfortable as she thought, and even thought his people were a little cute.
Signing Robert Downey Jr., Ronan will naturally not forget "Detective Sherlock Holmes." As early as the start of the "Iron Man" project, Robert Lee's people specifically looked up information about "Detective Sherlock Holmes", but It is very unlikely to want to win the copyright.
The former "Detective Sherlock Holmes" was not an original movie, but a comic adaptation. The people of Robert Lee found out that the comic has been published and the copyright is in the hands of the original author, Leonard Wigram.
When he heard the name, Ronan felt that he could not get the copyright of the adaptation.
Because of the long-term cooperation between Leonard Wigram and Warner Bros., the status of comic writer is only a part-time job. The real profession is a Hollywood screenwriter and producer. He has participated in three "Harry Potter" movies and several Screenwriting and production of Warner Bros. movies.
To be precise, Leonard Wigram is a weakened version of Charles Rowan.
Moreover, "The Detective Sherlock Holmes" was successfully published, and Warner Bros. contributed a lot to it. Leonard Wigram even signed a copyright priority sale agreement with Warner Bros.
Unless Warner Bros. doesn't want it, Leonard Wigram will not sell the copyright to other film companies.
Robert Lee just made contact with Warner Bros. only a little bit, and then retreated, temporarily not alarming Leonard Wigram and Warner Bros.
Of course, the subject matter and copyright of Sherlock Holmes are open, and any film company can shoot related works, but the plot and setting of the previous movie are basically the same as the comics. If the copyright is not obtained , Shooting related movies, there will definitely be copyright troubles.
As for other types of Sherlock Holmes movies, Ronan is not interested.
About Sherlock Holmes, there are sixty or seventy films, but in the past two decades, there have been few successes.
Ronan still remembers that there is a famous British drama about Sherlock Holmes. It is said that it is biased towards the genre of corrupt drama, but he has not watched it. He knows that this drama is also starring in "Doctor Strange" because of the actor.
Once, Sherlock Holmes seemed to be about to become Hulk.
Even "The Detective Sherlock Holmes" is no exception. For example, the two main female characters in the film seem to be forced in to clarify their sexual orientation...
The Hormos in this film lacks similarities with the characters in Conan Doyle's pen. Although Conan Doyle was a boxer when he was young, he would definitely collapse if he saw Holmes fighting against people with bare hands. .
The meeting between the two parties in the Theory of Relativity Building lasted only ten minutes. When they left, Susan Downey fell behind and seemed to have something to say to Ronan.
"He is incredibly mixed with many contradictory personalities, but he is back on track." Susan Levine knew very well that Ronan was the one who really decided the fate of this collaboration between Robert Downey Jr. and Iron Man. , Specifically said: "Downey is a bit weird, but he is absolutely down to earth now. He has tasted the hardships and bitterness of life and has grown up mature."
Ronan smiled and said, "I believe Downey can bring a successful Tony Stark."
The words are beautiful, but none of the clauses in the contract should be loosened.
In addition to the most important relapse clause, Robert Downey Jr.’s contract has a number of regulations that must be followed.
For example, on non-competitive terms, during the cooperation with Marvel Entertainment, Robert Downey Jr. could not act in movies adapted from the works of five major comic companies such as DC and Dark Horse.
There are many other restrictions.
Make-up shots must be available on call; once the film is completed, you must go around the world non-stop to promote and red carpet for the premiere; personal image is completely changed and commercialized; you must diet and fitness; focus on image and not do stupid things in reality; There is no right to suggest roles and plots; high-difficulty action scenes must be handed over to stunt performers; UU reads the book www.uukanshu. com can't engage in any form of spoiler; it must maintain a body shape that matches the character...
These apply not only to Robert Downey Jr., but also to all Marvel actors afterwards.
Once you join Marvel, you must abide by it, and the restrictions on new actors and actresses may even far exceed those of Robert Downey Jr.
In any case, Robert Downey Jr. still has some capital.
With Robert Downey Jr. in place, Marvel Entertainment managed to get Don Cheadle as the actor of "War Machine" as quickly as possible.
The black actor also signed a contract with Marvel Entertainment for a total of ten films, and the first film was only paid $200,000.
As for the heroine, the crew plans to solve it through auditions.
However, there are also many actresses who have expressed interest in private, and many of them have even contacted Ronan through various relationships.
