Genius Remember → Net, providing you with wonderful novel reading. The off-road vehicle parked under a small mountain. Under the guidance sent by the Iceland government, the group slowly moved forward along the rugged mountain road. There was only one two-lane road in the Vatner Glacier area. There was no suitable road for the ice lake ice field and the current peaks that Duke had previously looked forward to. If the crew wanted to shoot here, they had to build a temporary road first.

If there are only a few shots, you can use Stenikon equipment to solve it. However, the scenes here not only include fighting, but also have to build a village that suits the Himalayas. If large equipment cannot be entered, relying solely on manpower, it is estimated that the shooting will not be completed at this time next year.

However, the style here is quite primitive. If you don't explain it in advance, it will look like the roof of the world.

Moreover, compared with the more complex and harsh conditions in the Himalayas, the environment of the Vatna Glacier is already very good.

Before Duke came, he had communication with the Icelandic government, and shooting was not a problem at all.

"Hannah..."

Walking to a relatively flat place at the foot of the mountain, Duke called out his art director, pointed to a wasteland with its back against the rugged rocks, and said, "How difficult is it to build a village here?"

Hanna Serena walked over and looked at it on the spot. After returning, she said, "As long as the road problem is solved, half a month is enough."

Duke nodded and turned to the slightly higher mountainside location, "Select the right place there and build the monastery of the Shadow Warriors Alliance."

"This is simple." Hanna Serena was very confident.

Compared with villages from scratch, the monastery of the Shadow Dancers League only needs to be built out of the porch. The scenes in the monastery can be photographed in the studio, and the panoramic shots are shot using models.

The model can also shoot the explosion scene of the monastery, and such a hot scene cannot be filmed in the Vatna Glacier area, otherwise the Icelandic government and environmental protection organizations will have to go crazy.

“It’s really good here.”

John Schwartzman gasped and walked to Duke, "Looking forward, you can see the ice peak, turning 180 degrees and it seems to be at an altitude of 20,000 feet."

Duke pointed to his protruding belly, "The most important thing is that it will make you lose weight here."

"I'm afraid it's difficult." John Schwartzman laughed.

In the following week, Duke, led by his guide, kept wandering around the Vatner Glacier area, looking for a better shooting location. He kept exchanging opinions with Hannah Selena and John Schwartzman on the setting and on-site shooting. When he left, he signed a letter of intent with Iceland and determined to place some of the outdoor scenes of "The Moment of War" in Iceland.

When he returned to Los Angeles, the crew was holding the first large-scale audition, which was temporarily under the charge of Anna Prinz. Duke will only participate in the second audition of a few main characters, and his energy will not be focused on this aspect for the time being. There is still a lot of work required to be done in the project, and he needs to check it himself. The first thing he bears is the Batmobile.

This is not just a prop car. According to the commercial development plan, limited commemorative versions will be produced in the future and launched on the market. The crew's partner is Lamborghini. Their professional design team came up with eight versions of concept sketches, but all of them were rejected by Duke.

"Clorey, this is not a comic!"

Standing in the conference room, Duke pointed to the projection screen and said to the person in charge of the design team, "Although these eight versions are different, they are all too light and agile. What I want is a powerful monster, not a sports car that brings Zhang Yang to the extreme!"

"We will come up with a new plan as soon as possible." Clorie said quickly.

Duke emphasized again. "My ideal Batmobile is the product of a mixed race between Lamborghini and Hummer, combining the exquisiteness and agility of sports cars with the magnificence of fighting vehicles!"

According to the convention of prop cars, plastic shells are all equipped outside the existing body. However, Duke requires that the Batmobile in the film must be real from the wheels, chassis to the body!

With the official project of the film, Duke has completely entered a working state, which is different from the relative ease of "Hurricane Rescue". The film has huge investment and is the key to the success of the series. He is completely in the attitude of treating the Lord of the Rings trilogy. In his treatment of "Batman: The Moment of War".

As a screen loser who suffered a crushing audience reputation and box office performance in the 1990s, it was not easy for Batman to turn around, and all his work was not careless.

This is also Duke's usual attitude. He never takes his work lightly, nor does he take it for granted that his experience is special, so the film he shoots will definitely succeed.

Anyone with a brain knows that the distance between watching movies and making movies is as far away as the sky and the earth.

The progress of each work is placed on Duke's desk, and these must be reviewed and observed personally. As a director who controls the overall situation, he must understand the progress of the preliminary preparations and even every detail of the preparations. If he does not understand the various preliminary work, how can he talk about shooting?

These tasks cannot be left to deputy directors such as Tinafe and Anna Prinz. This is the most basic thing that a director wants to successfully direct a movie.

In addition to the review and preparation work, Duke also went to the Hughes Aircraft Factory in the Los Angeles area and rented two extra-large hangars, a huge bat cave and the dilapidated Neros area, where they will take pictures.

The huge hangar provides a wide space that the studio does not have.

The bat cave in the previous film was extremely exquisite, but the style of "War Moment" has been determined, which does not meet Duke's requirements. The bat cave he wants is a damp and dirty cave with bats everywhere. The film will also show how Bruce Wayne built his own bat cave by himself.

According to the plan, the cave built is about 250 feet long, 120 feet wide and 40 feet high. 24 water pumps will be installed and 12,000 gallons of water flow through the set every minute, forming a wet cave wall of waterfalls, streams and dripping water.

As for the bats, the methods of training bats are now quite limited, and it is difficult to make many bats act according to human will, and can only be generated using cgi.

Just as Duke was busy with the Batman series, another film related to him was also preparing to launch a project. After Duke's funds were in place, Tom Cruise's "Mission: Impossible 3" was about to begin preparations. For his ace series, Liang Tang even rejected Spielberg's invitation to "War of the World".

Of course, Spielberg's project never lacks superstars, and he chose to work with Tom Hanks again.

DreamWorks is deeply trapped in the quagmire. After the animation studio was separated separately, the live-action film department seemed to want to make a desperate move and invested huge amounts of money to create two super masterpieces, namely "War of the World" directed by Spielberg and "Escape from the Cloned Island" directed by Michael Bay.

But unlike Duke's influence, "World War" changed the male lead, and "Escape from the Clone Island" changed the female lead.

"Because I wanted to participate in your movie, I rejected Michael Bay's invitation." Scarlett said to Duke.

This was a party held by Tom Cruise. Duke accepted the invitation and after he arrived, he was targeted by Scarlett Johansson.

He picked up the wine glass, touched Harvey Baden passing by, and nodded slightly. After the other party walked away, Duke looked at the bright light behind Scarlett, moved his position slightly, avoiding the direct lights, and said, "You have been eliminated, Scarlett."

"Why?" Scarlett stepped forward and couldn't help looking at the turf under his feet. It seemed that it was not peaceful. Duke shook his head, "You are not suitable for this role."

"Is it really not suitable?" Scarlett looked at Duke with bright eyes. "I want to transform. Can I talk alone? Maybe you can give me some advice."

Perhaps because he was afraid that Duke would ignore her, Scarlett said again, "Some things, I'm sorry, I did a little too much, but Duke, we have known each other for more than ten years. You know me, and I know you, is it really just my problem between you and Ivanka? If you have prejudice against me and give up ten years of friendship because of this, it is unfair to me."

"I don't know you." Duke turned around.

This is not a place to say these words alone. Duke walked towards the corner of the lawn under the light, saw Scarlett follow from behind, and said, "Work has nothing to do with personal feelings, you really are not suitable for this role."

"But I didn't even attend the audition." Scarlett Johansson followed closely behind Duke like he did when he was a child. "Did you not even give me a chance to audition? I grew up behind your butt!"

Hearing this sentence, Duke stopped, and the scene of the past returned to his mind. Scarlett was still a chattering ghost at that time...

He sighed, turned around and said, "You are an important part of my future plans."

Scarlett's eyes lit up immediately.

Duke said again, "You are working with Sophia for the time being, and I will direct "Iron Man" next year."

"Do you want me to play Little Pepper?"

"Go and read the comics and learn more about Black Widow." Duke said without caring about Scarlett's agreement, "This is an important member of the Avengers plan and the key to connecting many members..."

Scarlett blinked his bright eyes and said, "I will never refuse as long as you need it."

"It's better!" Duke said as a warning, "I don't have high requirements for you, as long as I don't appear in front of Ivanka in the future."

The blonde hair suddenly fell from her head, covering Scarlett's eyes. She was silent for a few seconds and carefully tentatively, "What if... what if I often appear in front of her?"

This sentence almost made Duke's nose crooked, and he couldn't help but raise one hand and point it at her.

Scarlett Johansson pinned his hair behind his ears, showing a hint of fear on his face, "Will you hit me?"

"Yes!" Duke snarled.

He knew he couldn't give Scarlett a good face.

"Then you're done." Scarlett suddenly laughed and stepped forward and took a step forward. "You know, Duke, I won't refuse any of your requests."

“My endurance is limited!”

Duke glared at her, too lazy to continue talking to her, and walked straight to the crowd.

Scarlett muttered in a very low voice behind him, "The problem between you and Ivanka is obviously her best father..." (To be continued.)
