1905 Film Network News A few days ago, Damien Chazelle's new film "Babylon" has set a PR strategy for the awards season. Actress Li Lijun will compete with Jane Smart in the film for female supporting roles. Diego Calva and Margot Robbie compete for male and female leads, while Brad Pitt, Tobey Maguire, and John Edpoe compete for male roles.
"Babylon" takes place in the old days of Hollywood and tells the story of the transition from silent films to sound films. In Hollywood at the time, full of people chasing fame, fortune and power, the film portrayed the ups and downs of multiple characters, as well as the ambitious, wild and out of control life. Most of the characters are fictional, but inspired by real-life Hollywood star Harley Quinn, Margot Robbie, who plays Clara Bowe in The Wings. But after revisions, the character became more fictional. Brad Pitt's character was based on John Gilbert, one of Hollywood's most popular romantic figures and one of the highest-paid male stars at the time, and Lijun Li played Anna May Huang, the first Chinese-American movie star in Hollywood.
Other actors, Diego Calva, Tobey Maguire, John Edpoe, Katherine Waterston, Max Minghella, Olivia Wilde, Spike Jones, Phil Bee Tonkin, Samara Weaving, Flea, Rory Scaver, Lucas Haas, Eric Roberts, P.J. Byrne, Damon Gampton, Jane Smart and others. The film budget is as high as 80 million-100 million US dollars, which is R-rated. In terms of the release plan, the film will be widely released on December 23, which belongs to the Christmas season, which is enough to show the confidence of the producers in the film.
