[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 355 A Superstar Is a Superstar

"Isn't Eve filming a movie?"

"Cannes is too deserted this year. Fortunately, Eve is here. I hope to see her later."

"Actually, I am looking forward to "Shrek". This animated movie is really interesting from the trailer, it is very strange and subversive."

"There should be no need to worry about the box office. It seems that I heard that Jefferson Katzenberg, the head of the animation department of DreamWorks, is also here. I don't know if Spielberg will come."

"Probably not. To be honest, I really want to see it. How can a cartoon with a strange and funny style be shortlisted in Cannes. It's a pity that I didn't get a ticket for the premiere, how about you?"

"Me neither. There are only screenings here in Cannes, and no commercial cinemas. I'll watch it when I fly to Nice in two days."

Reporters and photographers on both sides of the red carpet were chatting, and everyone wore suits and ties, looking very formal.

At this time, the official staff of the film festival are already in place, and those in charge of the TV broadcast have already started debugging the machines, while the audience and fans are gathered around the red carpet.There are also some movie lovers holding signs, they are not cheering for the stars, but asking for tickets.

Even if the films shortlisted in the main competition unit will be screened many times, they can't always meet the needs of movie fans and media workers.

Under normal circumstances, the Cannes Film Festival's films are first released with various word-of-mouth and film reviews, and ordinary audiences have to wait at least a few months to see the true appearance of the film.

This time, however, DreamWorks played a different game, directly allowing "Shrek" to start its premiere based on Cannes time, and the rest of the countries and regions will be released quickly after the Cannes release, making a time difference.

The three major European film festivals basically focus on art films. This type of film does not have too many requirements for release time, and usually no commercial blockbusters are shortlisted.

What commercial blockbusters pay attention to is timeliness, centralized publicity and centralized release, so as to prevent the box office from plummeting after the pirated version is leaked.

In other words, audiences in Europe, North America, Australia, Asia, South America and other places can synchronize with Cannes and enjoy the treatment of watching movies.

"Shrek" has been building momentum since the beginning of the year, and the trailers played during the Super Bowl halftime and the behind-the-scenes production highlights that have been released one after another have maintained their popularity.

The story itself is interesting and attractive enough, and Eve and Eddie Murphy, who participated in the dubbing, are both first-line stars, so they naturally attract a lot of attention.Now that DreamWorks continues to make efforts, all major theater chains are trying their best to arrange films and strive for a share of the action.

As a reporter related to film festivals, Joseph usually pays attention to awards and rankings, and rarely has the opportunity to learn about the box office. After all, art films have almost no potential at the box office.

So while the security guards were cleaning the red carpet, he asked his colleagues next to him, "How much do you think the box office of this movie will be?"

Unlike the "Movie Handbook" where Joseph worked, Hamilton was a reporter for "The Hollywood Reporter", and he was most familiar with Hollywood movies.

So at this moment, they talked about it like a few treasures: "The estimates of various media are not too high. The North American market and the global market will definitely win a weekend box office champion. The figure given by Empire Magazine is 2800 million US dollars in the first weekend in North America. If the word-of-mouth is good, the family carnival movie will have a very good trend, it is estimated that it can get a total of 1.5 million US dollars at the box office, and 3 million US dollars in the world will be considered a big hit!"

The box office at this stage is relatively reserved, and there is no such thing as a thunderbolt that breaks [-] million or [-] million in the first weekend.

The animated films produced by DreamWorks are very good in terms of word of mouth, and their box office performance is also very impressive.

"Ant Brother" earned US$1.71 million in 2.1, "Prince of Egypt" went a step further and earned US$2.24 million, and last year's film "Chicken Run" became one of the winners of the summer file with US$[-] million. one.

This year, the production scale and publicity of "Shrek" far exceed those of previous movies, and the spoof of traditional fairy tales attracts the audience, so everyone predicts that its global box office will reach 3 million US dollars. Get off to a good start.

"The subject matter is very fresh, and the green monster is actually the main character. If it's really good, I'll go see it with the kids after Cannes is over."

These reporters are also ordinary people, and sometimes families need such activities.

When they chatted about the same, the staff of the film festival quickly began to clean up the red carpet scene, and one star after another began to sign in at the entrance of the red carpet, and they would go inside in order.

And Eve Campbell, who was wearing a white dress, stood at the front without hesitation. Her blond hair was draped over her shoulders. The slim dress had the posture of a Greek goddess, and her half-dew-scented-shoulders showed off her sexy figure. .

This dress is not a series that Armani has released, but Mr. Giorgio Armani specially designed it for Eve to attend this event, and it is the only one in the world.

Eve seems to have become Armani's muse of inspiration, so that Mr. Armani, who is famous for his men's clothing, couldn't help tailoring it for her.

Standing at the forefront of the crowd, Eve was surrounded by the two directors of the film, Andrew Adamson and Vicky Jansen, while the other two actors who participated in the dubbing were chatting and waiting.

Last year, she was still one of the people waiting in the crowd, so she didn't enjoy this year's clearing treatment at all.Among the group of people in the back there are some people who are dressed in strange clothes, who want to use this to gain attention and layout.

After confirming that the time and broadcast camera were in place, the staff wearing headsets and black suits said to Eve in the front row: "Miss Campbell, you can walk the red carpet now."

From the entrance to the steps of the movie palace, the red carpet road is only a few tens of meters long, but it is empty, and there are no people at all.It can be said that the official film industry has given Eve enough to be a Cannes actress, and at the same time, the crew has also given her a lot of support.

Actors don't like the red carpet very much, so Mike Myers, who voices Shrek, and Eddie Murphy, who voices Jackass, are willing to give Eve the opportunity to shine.

In fact, there are quite a lot of hidden bosses in this crew.For example, the famous French actor Vincent Cassel also participated in the dubbing. At this moment, he was chatting with his wife Monica Bellucci on the red carpet, which made many reporters secretly remember. Be sure to take a good photo of this couple later.

She was still a little nervous at first, but after actually stepping on the red carpet, Eve became more relaxed, facing the camera with ease.

He poses in various poses, showing his most beautiful and best side in front of the reporters.

Almost all the cameras were aimed at her, and even the backside was filmed by reporters.

She is the most popular and famous actor at the moment, and this goddess in a long white dress is the only one on the red carpet!

Eve really enjoyed the much-anticipated treatment. She posed slowly and fixedly, and the live broadcast of Cannes showed her charm in many ways.

The viewers and netizens who were able to watch the live broadcast were very surprised. They almost watched Eve slowly walk over from a small transparent, and now she is full of superstar aura in every gesture.

The progress is too great, and it is extremely obvious.

There are works, awards, popularity and fame, and you have to have a lot more confidence when walking on the red carpet!

"It feels like only two months have passed, how come Eve looks good again?"

"She's so beautiful!"

"it's beautiful."

"She's the only one on the red carpet?"

"Look, the stars behind have all been blocked, this treatment is amazing!"

"If you want to see the front, turn around!"

"I'm really looking forward to Eve's new movie, just watch it slowly during the summer vacation."

"The tickets for Shrek have been bought, and we are waiting for the show!"

"Ah, I thought Keanu was there too. But it's fine if she's alone."

"Who is that old man! Let go of my goddess!"

Poor Thierry Fumao is nothing more than an old man with a worrying hairline in the eyes of ordinary audiences. As the artistic director of the Cannes Film Festival, he stood on the steps of the Palace of Films to greet and hug Eve, welcoming last year's actress Come back with your work.

"Good afternoon and welcome home!"

Eve hugged Fumao and said excitedly: "It's my honor to be back. I'm very happy to be back in Cannes. I like it so much."

"If you like it, you must come back next year." Fu Mao said earnestly, not only did he want to train direct-line directors in Cannes, but also first-line stars like this.

However, Eve didn't know if she could bring her work here next year. If no work was shortlisted for the main competition, she would not want to set foot in this place at all.

If there is no work, there will be no confidence, and you will become a person who rubs the carpet.

Fortunately, her EQ Online didn't say anything to spoil the scenery, but said along the way: "Okay, I will definitely come back next year if there is a work!"

As a human spirit, Fu Mao certainly understands what Eve means, and this intention is enough.Next year is too far away, let's talk about it then.

The scene waited for Eve to step on the steps before letting other stars walk on the red carpet one after another. After welcoming Eve, Fu Mao walked into the movie palace with her, preparing for the premiere of the film.

The rest will not be able to enjoy the treatment that the artistic director of Cannes personally greets!

Eve is very familiar with the Film Palace, which is the soul of the film festival, where almost every film is screened.

At this time, the spacious screening hall was already overcrowded, and the audience who were lucky enough to grab tickets had already filled up all the seats, leaving only the seats in the middle row for the main film creators.

After the main creators are in place, the film will start to be screened.

Eve walked towards her seat with the hem of her skirt, greeting the behind-the-scenes workers of the film all the way.

Just as she was about to sit down, a man wearing a peaked cap suddenly walked over from the side.

Just by looking at that figure, it was very familiar. Eve's eyes widened, and she almost screamed!

"How did you come?"

"I miss you."

Keanu gently hugged his fiancée, and he gave Eve a kiss, regardless of the other people present, which was a small way to make up for the pain of lovesickness that separated the two places during this period of time!
