In the office of the Relativity Building, Ronan and Kevin Feige are discussing Marvel Entertainment's film plans.

After Avi Arad's term ended, Ike Pamut, who had served as chief creative officer and chief operating officer, took over as CEO of Marvel Entertainment, achieving a smooth transition to power.

In the new Marvel management power structure, Kevin Feige, who serves as president, is in charge of Marvel's film and television production business.

Kevin Feige first reported to Ronan about the current progress of Marvel movies: "The Hulk has held three internal previews, and director Jos Whedon comprehensively recommended that a few modifications have been made appropriately. In the final internal preview of the film, the comprehensive score was 9 points. Since the failure of the previous Hulk has been short, the market response of this film cannot be comparable to that of "Iron Man".

Ronan said: "From the market response, Iron Man will become the most popular superhero among the Avengers."

In fact, his purpose is very clear. As long as "Hulk" can recover its investment through various online and offline operations.

These superhero independent movies are more about paving the way for the future.

But then again, the Hulk filmed by Jos Whedon had a good overall review of the trial, and there is a high chance of achieving a good theater box office.

Kevin Feige continued: "Jon Favreau has begun to prepare for "Iron Man 2". Although he is very interested in directing "Captain America", it is too late in time."

Ronan thought for a while and said, "Do you remember the Russell brothers who I asked you to keep your attention? Get in touch with them."

In the past two years, Relativity Entertainment has maintained its attention to the Russell Brothers. The Russell Brothers have grown up rapidly and have filmed two American dramas as director and screenwriter, and have accumulated a lot of work experience.

Kevin Fitch nodded: "I will let people contact them as soon as possible." He turned to: "The post-production of Thor has reached the second half of the stage. All productions will definitely be completed by October, and the release of the holiday season will not be delayed."

"The Hulk, Thor, Iron Man 2 and Captain America..." Ronan whispered: "Then it's the Avengers."

Kevin Feige asked: "Have you considered the director's candidate?"

Ronan said directly: "Kevin, what do you think of Jos Whedon?"

"Well..." Kevin Feige thought for a while and said, "It's not bad, you can be regarded as a director candidate."

Ronan said: "You are directly responsible for the Avengers Project. If you think about it comprehensively, my opinion is to give priority to directors who have directed Marvel superhero movies. They are familiar with this series after all."

Kevin Feige is on his shoulders and is very cautious: "I understand." He mentioned the key point: "Budget..."

Ronan said: "Don't worry, budget is not a problem. The Pacific Investment Foundation can provide sufficient production funds for Marvel Entertainment at any time."

In fact, in the early stage of the Marvel Avengers plan, it also requires a large amount of money to get rich returns in the future.

This series once really generated huge profits from "Avengers".

Ronan reminded: "Kevin, while preparing for "Avengers", you should also consider the second phase."

Kevin Feige replied: "I will make a detailed plan and submit it to you after it is completed." Ronan has had some discussions with him in this regard, and Kevin Feige reminded: "The copyright of the Scarlet Witch is still in the hands of Twentieth Century Fox."

Scarlet Witch is part of the huge copyright of "X-Men". The setting in the comic is Magneto's daughter. The copyright of "X-Men" film and television sold by Marvel Comics, naturally also includes this female mutant.

Walt Disney once reached an agreement with Twentieth Century Fox, and Scarlet Witch and Silver Fast were used separately. Therefore, in the Marvel movie series, the name of Scarlet Witch has never been mentioned, and it has always been Wanda.

With the relationship between today's Relativity Entertainment and Twentieth Century Fox, it is basically impossible to reach such an agreement.

But Ronan's plan is even bigger, far exceeding Walt Disney in the same period.

Ronan thought for a while and said, "Don't worry about copyright, I will find a way to solve it. You can make an extra record. Even if there is no Scarlet Witch, don't affect the second phase plan."

"Okay." Kevin Feige said: "This is not a core key role either."

"Iron Man" was a big hit at the box office, not only Tony Stark instantly became popular, but Black Widow also attracted much attention. She became a star character and will inevitably be the core of female characters in the Avengers plan in the future.

This core position may last for quite a long time.

Even Marvel Entertainment is already planning an independent film for "Black Widow".

This is determined by market response.

But Ronan and Kevin Feich are equally cautious about this, with the first two female superhero movies "Catwoman" and "Erika" both defeated the first game in a crushing defeat.

If you ask whether female characters can carry a big-produced superhero movie alone, almost all the answers are no.

Ronan couldn't help but think of the Wonder Woman next door. As one of the three giants of justice, the first female superhero in history. Wonder Woman is more famous and always forgets the banner of feminism. If it is adapted into a movie, it seems that the chance of success is greater.

The three giants of justice are the core of DC Comics, so there is no need to think about copyright...

However, when thinking of "The Dark Knight", Ronan felt that after the film was released, Warner Bros. and DC Comics would come to talk to him about the copyright of the sequel, and maybe he could give it a try.

Anyway, even if it fails, there will be no loss.

If you can succeed, you will make a lot of money.

It seems that the long-legged female hero is about to cooperate with Relativity Entertainment. She has participated in the first screening audition for "The Hunger Games" and successfully entered the second round.

For Wonder Woman, the biggest flaw of that Israeli star is that his breasts are too small.

Ronan is not in a hurry to "The Dark Knight" and subsequent copyright and investment issues. The project has been progressing so far, and the anxious thing is Warner Bros. Heath Ledger, who was the deceased, and the clown who was made the last character in his life by Warner Bros., is only left to be the movie released, and the movie will be the gods.

By then, the film will be booming in box office and various revenues will soar. Without Ronan's reminder, Warner Bros. will also come to discuss investment matters in "The Rise of the Dark Knight".

In fact, Warner Bros. and DC Comics have recently been in contact with Shahai Entertainment. George Clint has been pushing back according to Ronan's request.

Time is beneficial to relativity entertainment; time will also prompt Warner Bros. to truly make up his mind.

The superhero movie plan for Warner Bros. and DC Comics is also steadily advancing. "Green Lantern" has already begun preparations. Ronan has received the latest news that Warner Bros. is also studying 20th Century Fox to dig out the corners of Relativity Entertainment, and has invested heavily in "Gossip Girl" Queen Blake Lively to sign the heroine of "Gossip Girl".

Black Lively and Relativity Entertainment are just a TV series contract signed, and they are not restricted from appearing in other movies.

In terms of the male lead, Ronan has also asked someone to inquire about it. Among the many shortlists, there is a male actor named Ryan Reynolds.

Until he was about to get off work, Kevin Feige said goodbye and left.

Ronan handled some documentation work, but did not return to Future World Manor after get off work, so he went directly to Jessica Felton's residence.

He has lived here in the evenings recently.

Climbing the summit is addictive, and the high altitude and beautiful scenery make people linger.

Faced with two directors and screenwriters whose past experience is almost blank, Shahai Entertainment occupies an absolute dominance and the copyright negotiations are progressing very quickly.

The young female screenwriter Cady DiPod took the lead in signing the contract and sold all the copyrights of the script to Shahai Entertainment for $22,500.

The official name of this project is "Hot Police Flower".

After Jessica Felton completes "Fast and Furious 4", she will be in charge of the project, with a preliminary estimate of the production cost of $30 million.

Subsequently, Tom Hicks also officially signed a contract with Shahai Entertainment, selling the script to Shahai Entertainment for a symbolic price of 1 dollar in exchange for more power in production.

Under Ronan's instruction, Shahai Entertainment also directly appointed Tom Hicks as the director and producer of "Human Centipede".

The production budget for this project is only 250,000 US dollars. Due to the particularity of the subject matter and content, Ronan does not want the company to participate directly. While doing financial supervision, he simply let Tom Hicks do his best.

In Tom Hicks' words, he would use "Human Centipede" to explore the deepest fear buried in human nature in a way that is biologically constructed and dissected, creating panic scenes that exceed human expectations.

Anyway, it's only $250,000, and Ronan is also tormented by Tom Hicks. As long as the film is filmed in an abnormal manner, it is not a problem to recover investment based on the offline operation capabilities of Relativity Entertainment.

Perverted movies have never lacked audiences in the United States.

A new weekend is coming, and "Hairspray", which entered the second week, lost the box office championship.

"The New Mutant Ninja Turtles" produced and released by Warner Bros. was released in North America this weekend, squeezing "Hairspray" from the No. 1 box office rankings in North America.

This comic adaptation movie was $24.25 million in the first weekend of North America, which is quite good compared to the production investment of $34 million.

However, "Hairspray", which fell to the second place in the box office list, has a very steady box office trend in North America. The box office of the next weekend was only 45% lower than the first weekend, and it won another $19.08 million on the second weekend.

Ten days after North America was released, the North American box office of "Hairspray" was 64.56 million US dollars, and the final box office of North America will definitely exceed 100 million.

It is precisely such movies or drama projects that sell online and continuously make profits from various offline channels and businesses, which constitute the huge operating income of Relativity Entertainment.
