There will be a large wave of large-scale film and television works coming soon.
These works all have one thing in common - beautiful women murder their husbands.
The first one is "Jiangyuan Lane" directed by Chen Kexin, starring Zhang Ziyi, and has a strong lineup.
The combination model of famous director + actress has earned this film enough attention. Coupled with the participation of actors such as Yi Yang Qianxi, Mei Ting, Zhao Liying, Lei Jiayin, Wang Chuanjun, Yang Mi, etc., it has attracted everyone's attention. My appetite is whetted.
And this film is adapted from one of the four great mysteries of the Republic of China, and it also manages enough suspense.
Compared to this new movie, which brings together half of the entertainment industry's cast, the cast of the other film may be slightly inferior, but it is still all capable.
But it is not inferior to Zhang Ziyi’s new movie at all. It even incorporates love elements, making it easier to watch.
Another one is "Dark Fire" starring Tong Yao and Zhang Xincheng. The online series has been scheduled to be broadcast on April 27. It will be on eight CCTV sets. Depending on the theme and configuration, I'm afraid it won't be popular. Disaster.
Beauty is the original sin, and large-scale suspense romance dramas are coming
Several high-quality suspense dramas recently have directly improved the quality of this genre, but there are also many overturns.
The reason is inseparable from the script.
For example, "Who Is He" starring Zhang Yi is also a strong one. However, because the first half focuses on suspense and the second half begins to focus on love, "Who Is He" turns into a Mary Sue movie under the banner of suspense. drama.
Suspense and love don't seem to be a perfect combination, but the key is that the script is not attractive enough and is full of loopholes.
"Dark Fire" also combines these two elements. Just looking at the plot, you can tell that it is completely different from "Who Is He"? The settings at the script level alone make people feel fresh and interesting. scale.
This drama tells the story of a secret love in a small town triggered by a horrific murder in the millennium.
When everyone was immersed in the joy of witnessing the turn of the century, Nanya (played by Tong Yao), the most beautiful woman in Qingshui Town, hacked her husband to death with an axe.
The only witness is Zhou Luo (played by Zhang Xincheng), who dropped out of a prestigious university and returned home, becoming everyone's talk after dinner.
Nanya's eyes were full of sadness when she looked at Zhou Luo, which made him feel affectionate. The young man's sincere and passionate heart, which could not be exposed to the sun, gradually moved Nanya, whose heart was as silent as death. In the trailer of
, Zhou Luo helped Nanya destroy the body and eliminate traces, turning the truth into a mystery. However, because of this incident, the intricate story of the small town was revealed.
The reason why this drama combines suspense with love is that it is because the male and female protagonists are in desperate situations, and they develop feelings in mutual attachment, which is a destined forbidden love.
A love story like this itself has a bit of tragedy, and when combined with suspense, it becomes even more unique.
Compared with the sister-brother love combinations in previous film and television dramas, although the male and female protagonists in this drama also have a clear age difference, one is a married woman and the other is a college student. They look so different that they are impossible. There was an intersection, but they somehow arranged for the two of them to come together.
Such a story setting is completely different from the Mary Sue dramas we have seen in the past. Therefore, the love-oriented content in "Dark Fire" can bring us a lot of freshness.
The character of the heroine will also become a major attraction in this drama. As the most beautiful woman in the town, Nanya is the focus of all men's eyes. No one does not want her, but she also makes her the focus of all men. A thorn in women's side.
In the trailer, there was a scene where Nanya was beaten by everyone and her clothes were torn. It can be seen that even if Nanya does nothing, in such an environment, beauty is an original sin.
Not only that, there are also a lot of obscure shots showing the love between the male and female protagonists. The sweat-soaked backs and stringy eyes show that "Dark Fire" depicts the love between the two people with great scale and tension.
Magnolia plays a leading role in the drama. The addition of talented actors to the
cast is also the key to whether a drama can become popular before it is broadcast and ensure the overall quality.
heroine Tong Yao once won the Magnolia Award for "Thirty Only" and has performed wonderfully in "Dajiang Dahe", "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" and "Rebel".
Although suspense dramas are not Tong Yao's specialty, she has continuously proven that her control over various themes is never limited to a certain type of drama.
The one that is closer to us is the life drama "Little Days" co-written with Chen Xiao. Tong Yao plays the role of a gallery agent in the drama. She exudes artistic atmosphere and has the sense of instant beauty of an urban beauty.
This time, she will play the heroine Nanya in "Dark Fire". The most eye-catching setting of this character is that she is the most beautiful woman in the town. Just looking at the appearance, Tong Yao's image is still very convincing. .
Tong Yao's acting skills have also been unanimously recognized by everyone. Therefore, it is not a problem to support the backbone in "Dark Fire".
The leading actor Zhang Xincheng is undoubtedly an underestimated actor. Whether it is a costume detective drama or a modern urban drama, Zhang Xincheng is no problem.
He has a clean and refreshing appearance. He can play the role of a high school boy as well as the image of a big star. No matter which role he plays, he makes people feel immersed in him.
"Dark Fire" is a big challenge for Zhang Xincheng. In the past, many male actors have failed in dramas with the theme of sister-brother love. Not only can they not take the role of female actors, but also because the image is not mature enough, it is easy to lack cp sense.
However, Zhang Xincheng and Tong Yao in the trailer have matching faces. It is not difficult to see that although Zhang Xincheng has a young face, his temperament is very mature and calm, which directly avoids the audience's drama.
And judging from the emotional rivalry between the two, although Zhang Xincheng plays a college student who dropped out of school, and Tong Yao is a married woman, his momentum is not weak at all. In terms of perception, the two are evenly matched, and this kind of CP is better.
In addition, there are many old acquaintances in this drama. For example, Song Shuai, who played Secretary Huang in the hit spy drama "Storm Chaser", will play the role of Liu Xun in the drama, or Dai. Wearing a pair of glasses, he looks good-natured and stubborn.
Although veteran drama star Chen Xiaoyi did not participate in this drama, her son Liu Hengfu will play Liu Yingxiong in the drama. He looks very upright in a military uniform, but there is a bit of cunning in his eyes, and he looks like a negative person. Character image.
Wang Peilu, the crazy donkey in "Hurry Up" wears the same hairstyle and plays Liu Changshui in this drama. I have to say that his appearance is so recognizable!
Veteran drama star Tian Xiaojie and actress Huang Lu will also play important roles in the drama. With such a lineup, "Dark Fire" will undoubtedly become a hit.
Are you looking forward to Tong Yao and Zhang Xincheng’s new drama?
