In 18 years, Lin Chaoxian's blockbuster "Operation Red Sea" won a box office of 3.6 billion, and the bloody fierce battle is still the ceiling of war films.
After the first part, the second part is naturally highly anticipated.
However, there has been little movement in this key project in recent years.
Lin Chaoxian filmed "Emergency Rescue", "Changjin Lake" and "Breaking Point".
The action scenes are still hearty, but the literary dramas are more crotch-pulling (except for "Changjin Lake").
Especially "Breaking Point", the scale is so large that it is classified as a "tertiary film", but after 31 days of release, the box office is still stuck at more than 90 million, and the investment of 200 million yuan is lost.
Now, at the New Year's Eve party, Bona announced that "Operation Red Line 2" has finally been launched.
Compared with the first part, the second part is even more "generous" than the previous work, with a planned investment of 250 million.
Lin Chaoxian's interview at the Shanghai Film Festival, the investment scale of the second part is three times larger than that of the first part.
"If you go up to the sea, you will go down to the bottom of the sea. 」
According to Director Lin's interview, the second part will also focus on the "submarine" team site.
It seems that the desert battle in the first part has not yet made him enjoy, and the action scene in the second part has been upgraded.
Of course, what everyone is most concerned about is the choice of the movie.
Is it the original team?
In Hollywood's series of movies, the main creator basically starts from the beginning.
Schwarzenegger has been acting in "The Terminator" since the 80s of the last century, and a few years ago, he was still playing.
Tom is the same, the "Top Gun" series and the "Mission Impossible" series have also been performed continuously for decades.
Zhang Yi, the soul protagonist of the previous work, has been replaced.
Huang Jingyu, who played Gu Shun, was also replaced, which is quite surprising.
Zhang Yi's resources in recent years have been very good, and he can be called a model worker in the entertainment industry.
"Man Jianghong" at the beginning of the year, "Priceless Treasure", "Tip of the Knife" and "Three Teams" at the end of the year are on the ground one after another.
In the TV drama circle, he has not fallen behind at all.
From "Hurricane" to "Who Is He" to "Huanyan", he has almost supported half of domestic film and television dramas.
It may be that the schedule has been hit, or it may be something else.
Zhang Yi was absent, and that "military spirit" was much less.
It is also regrettable that Huang Jingyu is absent.
Like Zhang Yi, he is also a tough guy, and he has played a lot of soldiers, and he can be called a male star in the entertainment industry who "serves in the military".
Filming military-themed movies is a great test of the actor's physical strength and willpower.
The actor has changed blood, can the newcomer afford it?
In order to promote "Red Sea", Bona's boss Yu Dong also came to Chinese New Year's Eve.
This time, the four leading actors were officially announced, namely Huang Xuan, Yu Shi, Du Jiang and Jiang Luxia.
All of them are wearing navy uniforms, and their temperament is quite tough.
There is no such "feminine wind" that makes people play.
Jiang Luxia's performance in the first part was full of sass, and her short hair interpreted the heroic posture of the female soldier very well.
In front of a group of tough guys, this woman's aura is also very sufficient.
Her return to the second part, the audience is naturally looking forward to it.
Huang Xuan's acting skills are not far behind, and the period dramas he starred in are also quite well received, but Huang Xuan's scholarly flavor is a little stronger, and it remains to be seen whether he can win Zhang Yi's role as the captain.
Du Jiang has always been Bona's royal supporting role.
Although he has not picked the main beam, his acting skills do not pull his hips, and I believe that it is not a big problem to complete his part.
And this time, I personally think it should be on the suit.
At the New Year's Eve party, the program team also specially arranged a program for him, and when he appeared, he came out with Weiya.
Yu Shi became popular this year because of his role as Ji Fa in "Fengshen", and became a new top performer.
His business ability should be there (it is said that when he was casting the gods, Yu Shi was the first in all the events of horseback archery).
There are no missing shots in 100 shots, and he is talented in sports.
The supporting role in "King of the Sky" before is not collapsed.
At least compared with other small fresh meat, Yu Shi's masculinity is still there.
However, it is difficult to say whether it can hold up to a heavyweight role.
Because this is not only a competition of physical fitness, but also a competition of acting skills, Yu Shi is still a newcomer in domestic entertainment.
In recent years, movies have liked the configuration of "powerful faction + top stream".
Huang Xuan is responsible for acting, Yu Shi is responsible for publicity and traffic, if Lin Chaoxian is "trained" well, and has the foundation of the big IP of the previous work, it should be full of explosions.
Are you looking forward to this movie?
