Armageddon
The TV drama version of "Armageddon", produced by CCTV and directed by Gao Xixi, is in full swing and is expected to be broadcast in the second half of 2021.
As the ace tribute drama for the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, the cast is strong, and the old, middle-aged and young actors are in full force.
Gao Xixi is the royal director of historical dramas, this time picking Da Liang to direct the TV drama version of "Armageddon", he also expressed his casting criteria, "the main characters are selected with real historical figures like gods-like powerful actors to star, and try to choose young actors with market appeal and new media influence to star, to drive more young people to understand history, remember the hard-won victory."
Tang Guoqiang
Tang Guoqiang, Liu Jin, Guo Lianwen, Wang Wufu, Wang Jian and other first-line great actors have gathered again, while actors Li Jian, Yu Hewei and other powerful actors have also all appeared, and will play the roles of major members of the two parties of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China;
There are also many fictional characters, which will be played by popular actors such as young actor Su Qing.
At present, 240 main roles, 550 special actors, and 30,000 extras have been assigned.
302 sets of main costumes, 32 sets of military uniforms designed by the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and 7500 sets of costumes for the whole drama;
There are 1026 literary plays and 323 martial arts plays.
There are 107 cannons and 6 tanks.
It is enough to see that the production scale of the TV drama version of "Armageddon" is the highest standard of the tribute drama.
"Crossing the Yalu River"
But it is not easy to get a good reputation, and it is even more difficult to surpass the movie version of "Armageddon". And compared with the "Crossing the Yalu River" produced by CCTV, "The Great Armageddon" cannot be compared with the scarcity of the theme, and the theme of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea has been "extinct" on the domestic TV screen for nearly 20 years, so the high reputation and high ratings of "Crossing the Yalu River" are largely due to the theme.
The TV series "Armageddon" obviously does not have such a theme advantage.
The film "Armageddon" trilogy released from 1991 to 1992 took a total of seven or eight years to shoot, while the TV drama version only took about six months to produce, which can be said to be a tight time.
Of course, the movie version of "Armageddon" is not invulnerable, in the editor's view, because of the limitation of the length of the movie, many roles have not been well interpreted, and there are few scenes that should have appeared in the main roles, especially in the contrast between Lin Biao and Su Yu.
Marshall
There are many scenes of "Lin Biao" in the movie "Armageddon: The Battle of Liaoshen", and the actor Ma Shaoxin is also very successful in shaping it, especially the characteristics of Lin Biao's cautious decision-making with soldiers are very impressive.
Yu Hewei
In the TV drama version of "Armageddon", Gao Xixi arranged for his royal actor Yu Hewei to play this role, which is enough to see that this role is still very heavy.
In fact, The role of General Su Yu in the Armageddon is not lost to Lin Biao, at least the role of the two characters presented in the film and television works should be equal.
In "Armageddon: The Battle of Huaihai", Lu Qi played the role of Deng Political Commissar more heavily
General Su Yu mainly appeared in the movie "Armageddon: The Battle of Huaihai", but it may be due to the constraints of the story line and the limitation of the length, and the plot distribution is unreasonable. As we all know, the East China Field Army led by Su Yu was the main force in the Huaihai Campaign in history, but the film devoted a lot of space to depicting the Central Plains Field Army, and even specially filmed a scene of Commissar Deng taking a cold bath.
Therefore, Su Yu's role has been seriously compressed.
Of course, this kind of problem is determined by the nature of the tribute film, and we should also understand the difficulty of the director and screenwriter of the film "Armageddon".
Xie Weicai
In the movie "Armageddon", actor Xie Weicai played General Su Yu, and he also did his homework for this role. Whether it was the torment between his own judgment and the intelligence conflict between the Central Military Commission and the Central Military Commission on the direction of Du Yuming's retreat to the south, or the deployment and fear of Du Yuming's group's encirclement and blockade of Du Yuming's group by deploying and using troops that had reached its limit, it can be seen that Su Yu was deeply calculating and cautious in making decisions.
Xie Weicai captured the soul of the character in a few scenes.
Su Yu was the first advocate of the Great Armageddon, who strongly advocated a decisive battle in Jiangbei, did not hesitate to issue a military order to Chen Yihe to the central authorities, and was also the direct commander of the main battlefield of the Central Plains Decisive Battle (the Battle of Yudong, the Battle of Jinan, and the Battle of Huaihai). Therefore, many viewers believe that Su Yu is the core and soul of The Armageddon.
If the TV series wants to restore the original face of history, it is necessary to determine the original protagonist status of Su Yu, at least equal to Lin Biao's role, which is also the key to the success of the TV series "Armageddon"!
Guo Guangping once played Su Yu
At present, the TV drama version of "Armageddon" has been fixed actor Guo Guangping as Su Yu, who has played this role in the TV series "General Su Yu", and has rich performance experience, which is worth looking forward to.
I hope that Huang Jiandong, the screenwriter of the TV series "Armageddon", can realize this problem and plump up the film and television image that Su Yu should have, after all, the TV series has jumped out of the space limit.
