Beijing News Express (reporter Zhou Huixiaowan) Today, the sports film "I Am Marbury", produced by Huang Jianxin and directed by Yang Zi, and starring Stephen Marbury and He Bing, held a press conference at the University Gymnasium of the Capital Institute of Physical Education. Marbury's first involvement in the film industry made Marbury feel extremely excited, and because of the joining of Wu Zun, Gao Yixiang, Wang Yangming and JinRong, his team was also known as the "highest-value basketball team in history". It is reported that the film will be released to land in mainland theaters on August 4.
The movie "I Am Marbury" was created by the Chinese and American teams, which lasted two years of transnational shooting, invited NBA stars Aaron Iverson, Byron Davis to participate, and the NBA technical team as technical guidance, telling the story of a basketball superstar from the bottom to the glory and finally the perfect transformation. For Iverson's "cameo", Marbury laughed and said that when the two played, they were always "teased" by each other, and as for who lost and who won in the end, the audience had to go to the play to find answers. The film's screenwriter and director is Yang Zi, who has directed "Shout Mountain", he said that the film will focus on restoring the most authentic Marbury, both the aura of the character, but also frankly face his shortcomings, the film is not a personal biopic, more focus on showing positive content to inspire young people, "No matter what stage of life you are in, you can find your own shadow in this movie, in the face of a dreary job and a helpless life, "I am Marbury" to give you the answer." ”
Marbury, a "Beijing citizen" who has already received a green card, also taught everyone to "bargain" at the press conference, and he led his teammates in the movie to play a basketball game with the "old boy team" led by Wang Zhonglei. Lao Ma's "teammate" Jinrong said at the scene that he was best at three-pointers, and Gao Yixiang revealed that he had caused a lot of trouble to the team. Yang Zi said that the actors have a very tacit understanding, "The basic playing game does not need me to arrange the scheduling, they can naturally present a wonderful basketball performance."
