"The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring" is about to usher in the competition of "Mission: Impossible 2".

Ryan quietly took the crew to Sydney, Australia, preparing to start shooting "Spider-Man" in the newly built studio.

Originally according to the original shooting plan, the crew will officially start in July.

Natalie Portman, the heroine in the film in June, needs to join the crew of "Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones" first.

However, George Lucas suddenly decided to postpone the shooting time of the crew until mid-August.

In this way, from June to mid-August, Natalie Portman has a schedule of more than two months, which is enough to finish shooting the shots in the "Spider-Man" crew.

In fact, there are not many shots of Natalie Portman in the film.

She's not so much a heroine as an important supporting actress.

After all, the protagonists in the film can only be Spider-Man and the villain Green Goblin.

"Theatrical companies want to release 'Spider-Man' next summer, not Christmas."

In a studio of a studio owned by Paramount in Sydney, Ryan had just checked the set-up shooting scene and various shooting equipment in the studio, and went back to the lounge to sit down.

"Summer file!"

"Spider-Man's release date will not change."

Ryan looked at Avi-Allard on the opposite side and said: "The summer vacation will start in May next year. Orion Pictures will release "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers", and "Rush Hour 3" will be released in early July, and there will be "Rush Hour 3" in August. Tomb Raider 2 is out."

"It is impossible to put the release date of "Spider-Man" in June."

The release schedule in June next year also has many large-scale commercial films released. At the end of May, there will be the war blockbuster "Pearl Harbor" produced by Touchstone and Disney. In early June, there will be "Atlantis: The Lost Empire" produced by Disney. , with an investment of up to 90 million US dollars.

In late June, there will be "Fast and Furious" produced by Universal Pictures, and "Doctor Dolittle" produced by Twentieth Century Fox.

What's more, Ryan hopes that "Spider-Man" will be released after 9/11.

"That's the opinion of Warner Bros."

"Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is tentatively scheduled for global release in November, and Warner Bros. hopes to stagger the release schedule of the two films." Avi-Arad also does not want the two films to be released at the same time.

You must know that Orion Films not only has half of the investment in the "Harry-Potter" series of films, but is also responsible for the North American distribution of the film.

"It is estimated that next year's Christmas schedule will include "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" in November, "Monsters, Inc." produced by Pixar Animation Studios, "Ocean's Eleven" produced by Warner Bros. in December, and "Ocean's Eleven" produced by Paramount. "Vanilla Sky." Avi-Allard simply counted, and there will be a large-scale commercial film released almost every half a month.

The intensity of the Christmas schedule is not much worse than that of the summer schedule.

"Vanilla Sky?" Ryan showed a puzzled look.

"This is a sci-fi suspense movie, starring Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz, the investment of the film is as high as 68 million US dollars." Avi-Allard gave a brief introduction.

Penelope Cruz!

There was a strange flash in Ryan's eyes, and he remembered the movie "Vanilla Sky".

In the previous life, Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz met during the filming of this film and dated for a while.

"Is there any suitable weekend at the end of November!" Ryan asked.

"Spider-Man" will definitely have a staggered release time with "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".

In addition, he can say without exaggeration that "Spider-Man" will not be afraid of any competition.

"How about a fourth weekend!"

Avi-Allard checked the film release time announced by major film companies, "In the fourth weekend of November, there is no news about the release of large-scale commercial films, and "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" can be released on November 1. It will be released on the first weekend of the month."

"In this way, the release dates of the two films can be staggered."

"It's just that "Ocean's Eleven" produced by Warner Bros. was released on the first weekend of December."

The investment of this film is as high as 85 million US dollars. The male stars are George Clooney and Brad Pitt, and the female lead is Julia Roberts. It is definitely a heavyweight film.

"Can."

"It is tentatively set to be released on the fourth or third weekend of November." Ryan quickly made a decision.

As long as the release period of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is staggered, Ryan is not afraid of competition from other films.

This is the super hot "Spider-Man", and the release time occupies the right time, place and people.

It is very similar to "Pearl Harbor" which will be released next summer.

The only difference between the two films is that the director of "Pearl Harbor", Michael Bay, made a big war movie into a love triangle movie.

"Spider-Man" is a superhero movie through and through, and there is no love triangle relationship.

The love triangle plot in the original film was directly changed by Ryan to a crush on the heroine.

The setting of the heroine in the original film is simply speechless.

Not to mention the appearance, but from the perspective of the plot, she first had an affair with a rich and handsome man, and then the family of the rich and handsome man underwent great changes, and she became the girlfriend of Justice incarnate as Spiderman.

Proper scumbag.

There is also the appearance of the original heroine Kirsten Dunst. Although it is not ugly, it is not a goddess.

According to the character settings in the film~www.wuxiaspot.com~ she is not only a beauty, but also secretly loved by the protagonist Spider-Man.

It looks very awkward.

Otherwise, Ryan would not directly choose Natalie Portman to play the role, and did not consider Kirsten Dunst at all.

After chatting for a few words, Ryan stopped paying attention to the release schedule of "Spider-Man" and began to focus on filming.

Right now, at most, a preliminary release time can be customized, and the specific release schedule will have to wait until the post-production of the film is finished.

After staying for a while, Ryan got up and left the lounge, and went to the studio to see Toby Maguire and Natalie Portman in the fitting.

Tobey Maguire's costume is relatively simple. In the film, he is just an ordinary high school student with a very ordinary costume, while Spiderman's costume covers the whole person.

Natalie-Portman's attire is much more refined. She is wearing a beautiful red cheongsam, beautiful red hair, coupled with her appearance, many people in the watching crew are impressed.

"Very beautiful." Tobey Maguire's evaluation of Natalie Portman is very real, without any exaggeration.

James Franco on the side nodded, and he very much agreed with Toby Maguire's evaluation.

"It's really beautiful and charming."

At this moment, Ben Parker came over and his eyes fell on Natalie Portman, "Unfortunately, she is not suitable for you."

As he spoke, he reached out and patted Toby Maguire and James Franco on the shoulders.

"Please, Ben."

Furthermore, the scene at the banquet in London, England, has long been spread. Natalie Portman did not show any weakness in the face of Harvey Weinstein, which provoked Ryan Gosling and George Luca. Two Hollywood bigwigs came forward.

Every idiot knows that Natalie Portman is not something to be provoked at will.
