On December 9, the film "The Trilogy of the Gods" once again exposed the cast. The official announcement was that Chen Kun and Yuan Quan starred in Yuanshi Tianzun and Queen Jiang respectively. The role posters of the two actors were released at the same time, Yuanshi Tianzun's face was solemn. , Jiang Wang Hou Zhuang elegant.

The film has been officially announced since September this year, with Huang Bo as Jiang Ziya, Fei Xiang as Shang Zhou Wang Yinshou, Xia Yu as Shen Gongbao, Li Xuejian as Xibo Hou Jichang, Yu Shi as Ji Fa... look forward to.

There are three films in the "Fengshen" series, with a production time span of 10 years and a total investment of up to 3 billion, making it the most invested film in film history. This means that the series must have a box office of at least 10 billion to pay back. Once successful, it is tantamount to dropping a blockbuster on the Chinese film scene, and it is likely to become a "Chinese-style "Lord of the Rings"."

The mythical story related to "Fengshen" is almost a household name. Most Chinese people have heard it since childhood. It is not easy to make this story new and attract the audience to watch it in the theater.

and looking into it in detail, the story of Fengshen is very large, bringing together a large number of mythological figures in Chinese folklore such as people, gods, and demons, forming an epic with numerous details and magnificent waves.

Despite the difficulties, the box office of "Fengshen Trilogy" is still very promising, and it has very optimistic prospects from the perspective of the cast, production team and audience.

, actor , needless to say, these few starring actors are invited to come out, and one of them is of the "King Explosion" level. Whether it is acting skills or box office appeal, they are all strong, and they can gather all these "big guys". Filming together, it can be seen that this movie must have something extraordinary.

In addition, of the 3 billion investment, no more than 30% was spent on actors, and 70% of the cost was spent on production, which also avoided the tragedy of "inviting actors with heart and making movies with feet". (I want to mention here, Huang Bo's poster is too textured.) For the production team of

, , let me first talk about the director. This super IP is directed by Wu Ershan.

Wu Ershan's two most famous films, one is "Painted Skin" and the other is "Ghost Blowing Lantern: Looking for the Dragon". The former perfectly showcases a fantasy Chinese story, and the latter is superbly produced. Both films Applauded and acclaimed.

Switzerland Geneva International Film Festival Best Director Award, the 48th Golden Horse Award for Best New Director Award, the 33rd Hundred Flowers Award for Best Director Award... Director Wu Ershan’s award-winning resume is shining, and his strength is unremarkable. Doubt. The script of the movie

took 4 years to polish, and the producer and screenwriter of the movie "Lord of the Rings" Barry M. Osborn was invited as a production consultant. The screenwriters of the

film include both Chinese who are familiar with the background stories and foreign screenwriters who are good at modern narratives. With Chinese story writing as the core, foreign screenwriters provide a clearer narrative structure to jointly create the best works.

This year, with the rise of Marvel movies, on the one hand, American superheroes have been warmly welcomed and sought after; on the other hand, so many excellent classic stories in China have not been better promoted and presented. A big regret in the hearts of countless people, people are looking forward to the emergence of "Chinese-style heroes".

From "The Return of the Great Sage" to "Nezha", such calls are getting stronger and stronger. Nowadays, animated films have made good results in this regard. The animated film "Jiang Ziya" will soon be released. "Fengshen Universe" vaguely took shape.

However, animated movies are relatively small, and the shooting of the live-action "Fengshen" movie can be said to be well received.

Whether it is out of feelings or out of trust in the creators, I believe there will be many people who are willing to support the "Fengshen Trilogy".

Next summer, the first film of the "Fengshen" series will be released soon. How did the film go? Can it meet audience expectations? Has so much money been used on the blade...... All the questions of

, by then we can all get answers, hope it will not let us down.
