, let’s take a look at what happened in the film and television circles at home and abroad this week!
TOP1 "Nezha" was selected for the Oscars
On October 17, the 2020 Oscars officially announced the primary list of "Best Animated Feature Films". This year's hottest animation "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" co-produced the animation "White Snake:" Origins" and "Snowman Romance" entered the primary list together.
A total of 32 animated films were selected for the primaries list, as well as "Frozen 2", "Toy Story 4", "How to Train Your Dragon 3", "The Child of the Weather", "Bunuel's Turtle Maze", and "Angry Birds" 2" "The Secret Life of Pets 2", "The Lego Movie 2", "I Lost My Body", "Klaus: The Secret of Christmas", "The Adams Family", "Son of the Sea Beast", "Disguised Spy", "The Missing Link", and "Pro "Mia", "The Little Butler of the Hot Spring House", "Maruna's Extraordinary Journey", "The Last Legend", "The Barbarian Jiyuan", "Funan", "Dilly's Fantasy Paris", "Another Day of Life", "Leaving", "Ubinhe" Yibin: "Lone Ape Excalibur", "Rezo", "White Tower", "This Magnificent Cake!", "Swallows of Kabul" and "Mother Earth" were selected together. Although
being selected does not mean winning, it is already a huge improvement in domestic animation. As we all know, before the release of "Nezha", the prospects of Chinese animation films were not clear. "Nezha" created a box office myth of 4.971 billion animation movies, ranking second in the Chinese movie box office list. This undoubtedly brings bright prospects to Chinese animation films. The success of
"Nezha" is firstly due to the whole crew's perseverance in making the film seriously. For example, more than one hundred versions of Nezha's character image have been designed, which finally confirmed the current image. Another point is that there has been great progress in storytelling, and the whole story has subversive innovation. This is also a good start for how Chinese animation can make good use of Chinese classical mythology resources.
TOP2 Big cousin Jennifer Lawrence married
On October 20th, Jennifer Lawrence and Cook Maroney held their wedding at Belcourt Castle, Rhode Island, and the two officially married. Approximately 150 guests, including Emma Stone, Chris Jenner, Sienna Miller, Adele, and Cameron Diaz, attended the ceremony to congratulate.
Earlier, Jennifer Lawrence had been in love with Chris Martin, the film star and the director of the band Cool Play. He said that he had never planned to get married until he met Cook and wanted to marry him. It seems that he has met true love. .
It is reported that Cook Maroney is a gallery director, and the two have been dating since June 2018. In February of this year, the two went out to eat in the street and were photographed that Jennifer was wearing a huge diamond ring on his hand, suspected of being engaged. In May, the two officially held an engagement party.
previously reported that as early as September 17, "big cousin" Jennifer Lawrence and fiancé Cook Maroney had obtained marriage certificates at the Marriage Registry in Manhattan, New York.
TOP3 "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" withdrawn from the archive
, originally scheduled to land on the Chinese market on October 25, "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood", announced the withdrawal on October 18. There are reports that Bruce Lee's daughter Li Xiangning appealed to change the description of her father in the film, but the specific reasons for the withdrawal have not been directly responded or confirmed by any film party. It is rumored that the film crew is communicating with Quentin to edit "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and hopes to be re-released thereafter; however, Quentin has no intention of re-editing, and his attitude is that if you can make it, you can’t make it. After the news that "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" was withdrawn, netizens had different opinions on this. But according to Chinese audiences who have watched the film, as a Chinese audience, especially as a fan of Bruce Lee, the perception is very uncomfortable. "The Bruce Lee in the film is arrogant, ostentatious, and even a little stupid. It is embarrassing and uncomfortable to watch. I believe it will be difficult for most Chinese audiences to laugh-because it is Bruce Lee, and the character design is very good. Irony. "
, whether it's the need for the plot or the creation of a sense of joy, it's hard to like Quentin's attitude to a movie that involves national sentiments.
TOP4 Zoe Kravitz starred in the new version of "Batman" Catwoman
After the great success of "Joker", Warner's layout for DCEU is also in full swing. In the future, a large number of DCEU movies will meet with the audience. Among them, the most eye-catching is of course the most popular characters in DC movies.The restart of the Batman movie.
The new version of "Batman" is directed by Matt Reeves. Filming will start at the end of 2019 or early 2020. The film is scheduled for June 25, 2021 in North America. The film is still in the casting stage. It has been confirmed that Robert Pattinson will be used to play the new generation of Batman Bruce Wayne, and then on October 15th will be played by Zoe Kravitz. The role of
Catwoman is very competitive. Previously, it was reported that there were five Hollywood actresses competing for Catwoman, including Valkyrie Tessa Thompson and Storm Girl Alexandra Sipp. But director Matt Reeves said that Zoe Kravitz was the most suitable candidate for Catwoman.
Zoe Kravitz as early as 2017 in the "Lego Batman Movie", she dubbed Catwoman, which can be said to have a connection with this role. Moreover, the inadvertent sexiness and the dangerous temperament that people can't help but want to get close in her bones are indeed very suitable for playing Catwoman
. Previously, there were Michelle Pfeiffer, Halle Berry, Anne Hathaway, etc. Having starred in Catwoman with various characteristics, regardless of the plot, they have in common that each generation of Catwoman is amazing. I wonder if Zoe Kravitz will feel pressured.
In addition, Paul Dano confirmed to play the big villain "Riddler".
TOP5 Live-action "Mulan" remake
The initial news on October 19 is that the live-action version of Mulan will have a lot of remakes. It is reported that the test screening of the film at the beginning of the year was not good, and a four-month re-shooting will start this month, focusing on the battle scenes.
But then came the exact news that the live-action version of Mulan's re-shooting was only a week or two, and some missing shots were found during the re-shooting and editing. This kind of situation is common in the editing of blockbuster films. Previous blockbuster films such as "Avengers 4" have been reshots, with the purpose of making the film better.
In this way, viewers should not worry about not being released as scheduled on March 27 next year. Because of the starring Liu Yifei and many Chinese movie stars joining, the live-action version of "Mulan" is still relatively high in China.
Since "Mulan" is a story of the Chinese, the filmmakers attach great importance to the Chinese market. But telling the story of the Chinese princess in a Western way of thinking is hard to say whether the Chinese audience can be satisfied. I hope that the effect of the film will not let us down. Above
is the news of this week. What do you think about this, please leave a message to discuss!
