Preface: The films directed by Wang Jing, "The Nine Yang Divine Gong of the Dragon Slaughtering Record of Yi tian" and "The Sacred Fire and Majestic Wind of the Dragon Slayer of Yi Tian", will be released online soon. When the new version of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon" was preparing to be filmed, everyone thought that there was only one, and thought it was a theatrical movie.
Probably because of filming, Wang Jing found that there were too many things she wanted to shoot, and the length of time was too long, so she decided to shoot in two parts. "Chosin Lake" was also filmed in two parts, but "Chosin Lake" was both theatrical films and had a high box office. Why is the new version of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon" not released in theaters? To put it bluntly, Wang Jing is still not confident in the box office.
Recently, the new version of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon" released posters again, and the order in which the posters were released: the first is Lin Feng, the second is Gu Tianle, and the third is Zhen Zidan. Wu Qinggong, a non-famous entertainment critic, pointed out that this shows that Wang Jing is not very confident in Lin Feng's appeal, so he put the posters of Gu Tianle and Zhen Zidan in a very conspicuous position.
Gu Tianle plays Zhang Cuishan in the film, and is the father of Zhang Wuji, the character played by Lin Feng. In Jin Yong's original novel "The Book of the Dragon Slaughtering in the Heavens", Zhang Cuishan died when Zhang Wuji was young, so Zhang Cuishan's role was very small. After Zhang Wuji grew up, how could Zhang CuiShan still appear? Could it have appeared in Zhang Wuji's memories?
Therefore, I feel that Gu Tianle has now become the second Shen Teng, and has been paying off the "human debt". Shen Teng often made cameos in movies starring his friends, and then the filmmakers sold tickets under the banner of Shen Teng. Some people may also rush to Gu Tianle to see the new version of "Relying on the Sky to Slay the Dragon", but after watching it, they may find that Gu Tianle's role is too small to return the ticket price.
Zhen Zidan's role should not be much, because he plays Zhang Sanfeng, who does not appear much in Jin Yong's original novel. The new version of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon" has 3 female characters, namely Xiao Zhao, Zhou Zhiruo, and Zhao Min, played by Yun Qianqian, Qiu Yinong, and Wen Yongshan respectively. Moon Wing Shan performed well in the movie "Manslaughter 2", so she was not scolded.
Yun Qianqian and Qiu Yinong were scolded, and were accused of being inferior to Qiu Shuzhen and Li Zi of Jet Li's version of "The Demon Sect Leader of the Dragon Slaughtering Record in the Heavens". In the face of everyone's controversy over casting, Wang Jing said: Directors should not be swayed by public opinion, they should be firm in their choices, and the actor's suitability for the role is the most important.
At the same time, Wang Jing also said: "The 93 version of Ice and Fire Island and the last Shaolin Temple were not filmed, which is also a regret for many fans over the years, and I hope to make up for this regret." "The Demon Sect Leader of the Dragon Slayer in Yitian" is co-written by Jin Yong and Wang Jing, co-directed by Hong Jinbao and Wang Jing, and starring Jet Li, Zhang Min, Qiu Shuzhen, Li Zi, Hong Jinbao, Zou Zhaolong and so on.
