Busy, busy, still busy. In a blink of an eye, the morning time flies. Since this is the first day of the official start-up, everything is starting from scratch. The crew is also running in. The trivial things are even more unimaginable. The start-up ceremony was originally scheduled for nine o'clock. In the end, it was delayed until half past ten.

Said it was a kick-off ceremony, but it was actually just an internal ceremony.

The media was not invited, and there was no open visit. The internal staff gathered together, and the producer Tim Lewis spoke on behalf of him, expressing the vision of safe shooting, smooth shooting, and successful shooting; then the crew members took group photos together Finally, through the official channels of Warner Bros., the group photos and press releases were released, announcing that "Edge of Tomorrow" officially started shooting.

That's it, it's not a grand and formal publicity occasion.

One of the most important links is undoubtedly the determination of the cast. This is also the first time the cast of the cast has been officially announced after "Edge of Tomorrow" announced the project.

In addition to Renly Hall, Jennifer Lawrence was finally determined to be the heroine of the movie, playing the role of Rita. It is worth mentioning that less than five days have passed since "The Hunger Games" was completed. Jennifer left the "Hunger Games" filming set and joined the filming of "Edge of Tomorrow" non-stop. She was the last. The one who arrived on the set was even later than Paul.

This will be the second collaboration between Renly and Jennifer, or the two will perform together as the leading male and female protagonists. Highly anticipated.

The J team with a total of six members consists of Paul Walker, Rami Marek, Donald Glover, Kaya Scodelario, Tony-ay, and Will Paul. Erte (i11-pou1ter) starred.

Among the five actors, the oldest Paul is 38 years old; the youngest Will is only 18 years old, a total difference of twenty years. However, these actors have similar characteristics: their reputations are average, but they have distinct characteristics, and most of them have appeared in TV series. Like Lan Li, they have gone from small screens to large screens.

Lamy has starred in "Pacific War", Donald is starring in "Waste Wood League", Kaya is starring in "Skin", Tony has starred in "Detective Sherlock" and "Game of Thrones", Paul's career is also from the TV series "Vitality" Enriched with urban men and women" began. Will is the only exception. He was born as a child star and has only appeared in two works, "Sons of Rambo" and "The Chronicles of Narnia".

In addition, there are two important roles, namely Cage's direct superior to justice Sergeant Riel, and General Brigham who threw Cage to the front.

Generally speaking, for commercial blockbusters like "Edge of Tomorrow", these two characters often choose old drama bones to enhance the texture of the whole work. At the same time, they are also actors that the audience is very familiar with, and they have an unexpected effect on boosting the box office. ; And the old drama bones who played well with the drama themselves are good in quality and cheap, and they are really cost-effective.

In the previous life, these two roles were played by Bill Paxton (Bi11-paxton) and Blydan Gleason. This time, the two roles were given to Alexander Skarsgard and Ray-stevenson (Ray-stevenson).

It is worth mentioning that Alexander was born in "True Love as Blood", while Ray has starred in two TV series "Rome" and "Bloodthirsty Forensic".

It is not difficult to see that the entire crew of "Edge of Tomorrow" is "playing light", with actors from TV dramas as the main team and actors from British dramas as the main target. Overall, the crew members are not well-known. But the basic skills of acting are solid enough and trustworthy.

Most importantly, the average age of cast members is very young, only 28.8 years old. Let alone the two starring roles of Lan Li and Jennifer, Lei, who plays the general, is only 47 years old this year. Of course, the cast of "Edge of Tomorrow" is still more diverse, richer, and more mature than "Twilight" and "The Hunger Games", where the average age of the lead cast is only in their early twenties.

Despite this, after Warner Bros. released the official press release, the major media regarded "Edge of Tomorrow" as a science fiction movie for teenagers, and the less optimistic about the movie's box office prospects-the reason is very simple, the main force of science fiction movies The audience is male audiences in their 30s to 40s, and audiences in their 20s and below often find it difficult to resonate with such movies.

However, all this is to be expected. The media are not optimistic about "Edge of Tomorrow". Before the works are released, they are bound to maintain the same point of view, and then do their best to find the fault, and it is impossible to easily change the camp. Therefore, such a situation is not unexpected.

After the opening ceremony, the crew began to intensively prepare for the shooting of the first scene.

"Edge of Tomorrow" is a huge crew, it is impossible to complete the shooting according to the timeline, but to arrange the scenes according to the configuration of the studio. The first scene today is the rivalry between Renly and Alexander.

The plot is not complicated. Cage tried to avoid the battlefield, but the general ordered the law enforcement team to stun him and threw him directly to Heathrow Airport.

When Cage woke up, he lay on the luggage pile on the tarmac, and then met Sergeant Zhi Farrell. Cage persuaded Farrell that he didn't belong here and asked to call his immediate superiors with a three-inch tongue. Farrell agreed, and the two walked towards the barracks.

But after arriving at the entrance of the barracks tent, Keqi realized that Farrell hadn't obeyed his words at all. Because the general was fully prepared and issued an order, he not only demoted Cage to a second-class soldier, but also positioned Cage as a deserter. Therefore, Farrell was not moved at all, and directly took Cage to the J team.

The first part of the scene, the dialogue between Cage and Farrell, and the part of persuasion, will all be filmed on site at Heathrow Airport; today will be filmed from the second half of the scene, which is the station of Cage and Farrell. At the door of the barracks tent, realized the truth.

Different from the original novel, Derek gave the story a playful sense of joy from the adaptation of the screenplay in "Edge of Tomorrow". This sense of joy is not the kind of humor that makes people laugh, but the contrast created by the plot gap, which brings a relaxed atmosphere of the story.

The most typical is Cage, the kind of confused, stunned and unclear sense of astonishment, which is incompatible with the seriousness of the plot and the sincerity of the atmosphere. It can inadvertently raise the corners of the mouth, and can be a relaxed and happy mood. Go watch a movie.

In the "Edge of Tomorrow" of the previous life, Tom Cruise's performance was not satisfactory. On the one hand, he has the burden of idols and is unwilling to put down the air to make fun; on the other hand, his performance is too rigid and loses the playfulness and comicality in his lines. Movies rely more on the gap between the plot itself and the contrast between the characters themselves to create a relaxed atmosphere.

In this life, Lan Li is willing to make more attempts. For comedians, how to combine lines and expressions in an understatement and serious manner to create a humorous effect is a serious subject.

Before the filming of the first scene officially started, Lan Li and Alexander hid in a corner beside them, of course not for reminiscence, but to study the performance of the next scene. The production has been urged twice, but the two people still haven't discussed it, which caused the official shooting time to be delayed by ten minutes than expected.

However, today is the first day, everything is in turmoil, even if it is not on time, this is not surprising.

The staff and actors of the entire crew did not expect much. The burden of the play itself is not obvious. If Kim Carey were to perform it, it might make people laugh; but the two of Lan Li and Alexander A handsome guy? This makes people have to put a question mark.

Not to mention that the two handsome guys are not funny, even if they are willing to put aside their spoofs, they may not be suitable. This is also the hardest part of comedy—comedy can be imitated but not copied. To interpret true humor, it must have its own style and characteristics. What's more, no one wants to see handsome guys winking and weird, and the audience is more willing to see handsome guys playing handsome. It's like Tom Cruise in the last life, playing handsome all his life and still enjoying it.

Finally, Lanly and Alexander walked out one after another. The actors cast their sights, and Jennifer, who has no performance task today, could not help but blow a whistle, "Wow, for this picture alone, I am willing to buy a ticket to enter the venue." A ridicule made everyone around laughter. stand up.

These two men ~www.novelhall.com~One is 6.2 feet and the other is 6.4 feet. They are exceptionally tall, especially the proportions of their bodies are enviable. At this time, both men are dressed in military uniforms, tall and slender. The legs brought a strong visual effect, and they walked towards him as if they had seen a supermodel step onto the stretcher.

As Jennifer said, the picture effect is satisfying.

"Ho Ho Ho Ho," everyone started booing, and the whistle was endless. Lan Li and Alexander were unidentified, so they only saw everyone's laughter, all of them were jokes, especially Jennifer.

Lanly ignored him, nodded towards Paul Greengrass among the crowd, signaled that they were ready, and then walked to the starting position of the shooting, ready to shoot the official first scene of "Edge of Tomorrow".

I saw Abby Mills standing on a lift platform, picked up the loudspeaker and loudly shouted, "Everyone is paying attention, we are now counting down ten seconds, the filming officially begins, and everyone can enter the performance state. Remember, don’t look at the camera, don’t look at the camera when you go, and don’t look at Renly and Alexander, and focus on the work in your hands. Then, I will start the countdown now."

The first scene, this is the big scene. The Heathrow Airport in the story is in a wartime state and will go to the battlefield the next day, so the entire airport is extremely busy. There are countless recruits and veterans coming and going. In order to create a sense of reality, according to the director’s request, this The scene mobilized six hundred people to shoot. It was only the first scene on the first day. This was a big battle that Lan Li had never experienced before. The whole scale was different.

As the protagonist and as a supporting role-even the third protagonist, the scale and pattern are completely different.

"...Three, two, start shooting!"
