Legendary Hollywood Producer

Movies, especially the production of projects with an investment of up to 150 million U.S. dollars, are a large-scale battle, and everything requires careful planning.

And in the whole preparation work, the most tiring is undoubtedly the production position.

Although the script has been finalized, under the suggestion of director Christopher McCauley, some scene designs and character modeling have been replaced.

The selected actors have not changed. Except for the ace of the "Mission Impossible" series, Ethan Hunt is still played by Tom Cruise, the rest of the cast is not much different from the previous life.

The big villain "Owen" played by Philip Seymour Hoffman, the arrested female agent "Lindsey" played by Kelly Russell, and the computer expert "Luther" played by Vin Reims. .....

In order to ensure his absolute core position in this series, Tom Cruise must choose an unfamiliar actor to match himself with him every time. Not to mention the A-line, it is basically a third-line movie star who will follow him. I am afraid that the audience will not pay attention to him Body.

This "Mission Impossible 3" is no exception. Except for a few characters transferred from the previous series, the rest are unknown actors. Michelle Mona Khan, who plays the heroine, is even more prevalent before this. Only starred in one TV series, or appeared as a supporting role. However, this movie does not require her to have acting skills, just to be able to dress up a qualified "vase".

The "Mission Impossible" series is after all Tom Cruise's stage alone, and everyone else has to make way for his role.

After the film's main creative team was ready, Paramount Pictures began to prepare for a grand opening ceremony.

If it's Roman, it will probably wait until the filming is completed and the post-production process will begin, but Paramount's idea is not something he can intervene. They need the power of the media to awaken the audience's heart to "Mission: Impossible." The impression of the series of movies announced to fans across the United States that "Mission Impossible 3" is coming.

......

The Fremont Hotel in Los Angeles was full of voices and reporters under the dome made of white pillars. The staff at Paramount used microphones to maintain order on the scene, but the guys who moved by the wind still squeezed forward. The whole mess.

Roman stands behind the leading actors, treating himself as a wooden person, motionless. He didn't speak or answer the reporter's strange questions.

But in fact, few reporters will pay attention to Roman as a producer. Just like where he is today, the previous actors are the focus of media attention, even the film. 'S director is also more present than Roman. Of course, he doesn't need media reporters to interview him, and he doesn't rely on showing off his image to eat, but why he wants to focus on the lights.

Seeing the beginning of the questioning activity, the microphones in the hands of the reporters were almost poked onto the stage, and the camera lens completely covered this area. Various shining white lights seemed to blind people’s eyes. He took a few steps back.

"Mr. Roman, you are incredible. You dare to distract yourself on such occasions today." George, the executive of the Paramount distribution department standing next to him, said jokingly, "Is it boring?"

"Of course." Roman also replied with a smile, "In my opinion, this publicity campaign is unnecessary. The shooting time is still so long. Will it really be effective to start publicity at this time?"

"The promotion of the movie is better than nothing, but it is still useful for the image promotion of the starring Tom Cruise. He is in a bad situation recently and needs the power of the media."

Since the release of "Mission Impossible 2" and the audience's bad reputation, it has actually consumed the market appeal of this series of movies. In the past year, Tom Cruise's acting career has stagnated and started. Downhill, he also needs a wonderful sequel movie to prop up his appearance.

While Roman and George hid behind and chatted, the previous interview activities continued--

"Mr. Tom Cruise, this is the third installment of the "Mission Impossible" series. Are you confident that you will continue to be successful?"

"Of course I have confidence. If even we are skeptical of the movie, this work will never pass Paramount Pictures' censorship." Tom Cruise said a witty remark that caused everyone to chuckle.

"So, Director Christopher McCauley, you are the third director to direct the film project of the "Mission Impossible" series. What do you think of this series of films?" A reporter turned his gun and asked a question. .

"The wonderful story and Tom Cruise's performance in it are the basis for the success of this series of films. I believe that you will see a very good spy blockbuster this summer."

"So, Mr. Tom Cruise, what do you want to say to the fans who are looking forward to this movie?"

"This summer vacation, see you or leave..."

The questioning sessions of the reporters on the scene were exceptionally friendly. Many of the questions were not sharp, and it was more like a show-style propaganda.

This is also the credit of Paramount Pictures. The opening ceremony was planned by them, and friends from the media who came to the media have also greeted them, and they will not embarrass the crew on such occasions. Freedom of speech or anything does not belong to this occasion, and only the brainless people will ask random questions. Obviously, many reporters and media at the scene had their brains to go out.

After the questioning session, George, who is a press officer, politely came up to the stage and said something to the effect that the film will be released during the summer vacation. I hope you can go to the theater to support it. Then, the protagonists and the director, producer Roman, George and other Paramount executives stood in a row and took a photo together. After thanking the reporters and the media, the press conference for the start-up was also over.

"Clean up." George said to the staff next to him.

Under their maintenance, a large wave of reporters and workers withdrew from the hotel lobby in an orderly manner.

Roman looked at his watch. It was 5 in the afternoon, and it has been three and a half hours since 1:30 in the afternoon. This boot conference is really hard work.

"I'm leaving now, George, I have to go to the crew early tomorrow to arrange filming work."

"Well, Roman, the crew will depend on you to manage it a lot."

"I will, I guarantee that the filming will not exceed the scheduled time." Roman is still very comfortable with the filming work. The entire production team is carefully selected by Paramount Pictures, and they all have industry experience.

After talking to George and exhorting director Christopher McCauley a few more words, Roman left alone.
