The global film market situation under the epidemic is not very good, not only the cinema business has been affected, but also many film shooting and scheduling, but also because the epidemic has too many variables, from the first half of 2020, when the stop button was pressed, to the second half of the gradual and slow recovery, and the first half of 2021, everyone should be able to perceive the unremitting efforts of the film industry and the consistent pursuit of film audiences.
Now, the time into the second half of 2021, whether it is the original plan to release, or in the withdrawal, rescheduling, and rescheduling after the final finalization, there have been a number of films to meet the global audience in the next time, including both Marvel and DC super British blockbusters, as well as a number of Hollywood blockbuster productions, may wish to follow the battlefield to take stock one by one, so as to make a list of blockbuster movies in the second half of 2021:
01、Venom 2
Director: Andy Serkis
Starring: Tom Hardy, Michelle Williams, Stephen Graham, Woody Harrison, Naomi Harris
Release Date: From September 15, 2021 (Worldwide)
I still remember the excitement and excitement of watching the first film, Venom: Deadly Guardians, a character who is very different from the previous superhero, with strange shapes, distinct personalities, cold enough and sometimes very funny, and the combat function is also extremely powerful. Most importantly, based on the mysterious substance of the universe based on venom, and the human host Eddie's mutual companionship, love and killing, especially the mouth cannon between the two, is the hilarity of the whole film. As a result, the first "Venom" movie was released in the mainland and earned a box office of 1.87 billion, which depends entirely on the charm of the characters and the quality of the film.
While watching Venom: Deadly Guardians, the easter egg at the end of the film also adds a lot of anticipation to the next story: Carnage, played by Woody Harrison, appears in prison, a symbiote more evil than Tom Hardy's Venom, and will also be the most unprecedented challenge Venom will face in the new film. After all, "Venom" is influenced by Eddie, a host with a strong sense of justice, and becomes a superhero who guards the earth, while "Carnegie's" host, Kletus Casadi, is a serial killer, and the next plot will be an earth-shattering storm between good and evil. I have to say that the series of perverted homicidal images played by Woody Harrison are deeply rooted in people's hearts, and this Time Carnegie's role seems to be tailor-made, which must be an important point of "Venom 2".
According to current news, "Venom: Let There Be Carnage" will be released worldwide from September 15 this year. Nowadays, many details about this film are also constantly exposed, such as the ChinaJoy held in Shanghai, "Venom" and the deadly nemesis "Carnech" made a stunning appearance together and became the focus of the audience. In the new Chinese trailer released on the evening of August 2, there are also too many details for fans, Venom encounters the fateful enemy Canech, scarlet blood thorn tentacles break out of the body, switching and combining in various forms such as blades, long whips, explosive needles, and giant nets, showing their tyrannical nature. This is not only the war between Eddie and Cassade, but also the deathmatch between Venom and Carnech, especially the "tacit partner" between Venom and Eddie is still in constant friction, how will they fight back? It's all about the huge suspense of Venom 2.
Not only the role, the story makes people look forward to, the main creative team of this time, there is also a hi point that can be obtained, that is, the director, from the first Reuben Frescher to Andy Serkis, which is the first person to be famous for motion capture, the roles interpreted by him include Gollum in "The Lord of the Rings", King Kong in "King Kong", Caesar the ape leader in "Rise of the Apes", etc. This time as a director to join "Venom 2", there must be a breakthrough in the action scene and the big scene, and the trailer has been released, It has been stunned and dazzling, and I believe that after the release, there can be more unexpected surprises, which can be regarded as the first expectation in the second half of this year.
02. "The Legend of Shangqi and the Ten Precepts"
Director: Destin Creighton
Starring: Liu Simu, Liang Chaowei, Okafina, Yang Ziqiong, Zhang Meng'er
Release Date: September 3, 2021 (USA)
Shang-Shi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is the 25th film in the Marvel Universe and Marvel's first Chinese-American hero film, starring Simu Liu, Liang Chaowei, Okafina, and Yang Ziqiong. For many, the name Shangqi may still be unfamiliar. The character was created in 1973 by Steve Engelhart and Jim Starling.
In fact, the emergence of the role of Shangqi is also largely due to the kung fu film boom triggered by Bruce Lee at that time, as a result, Shangqi is set as a martial arts master, the image and martial arts style are very similar to Bruce Lee, good at various weapons or non-weapon equipment, especially good at using sticks, double sticks and swords. Shang Qi's father's name is "Wen Wu", and the character played by Liang Chaowei, who we are all very familiar with, has many action scenes in this film, especially the stunned "Ten Rings Skill", which is worth looking forward to.
The full name of the "Shangqi" big movie is "Shangqi and the Legend of the Ten Commandments", and it is also obvious that the film has many connections with other works in the Marvel Universe, such as the terrorist organization in the first two Iron Man movies is the Ten Commandments Gang, and in "Iron Man 3", there is also the father of Shangqi played by Ben Kingsley, which is undoubtedly connected by "Shangqi and the Legend of the Ten Commandments", or perhaps it is the foreshadowing for this film. Therefore, at this point, I still have to praise the Marvel Universe, that is, from beginning to end, I am in the next big banner, and I have long planned the layout and positioning of the entire universe, rather than being like a friend businessman, always thinking that a play is a rush and rush.
The movie "Legend of Shangqi and the Ten Commandments" was originally announced at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con, which can be regarded as a more special film in the Marvel Universe, similar to the creators of "Black Panther" (Black Panther), and "Legend of Shangqi and the Ten Commandments" is more chinese lineup, whether in front of the stage or behind the scenes, the reason is to hope to present a more original Chinese hero for the audience. The film was originally scheduled to be released in February 2021, but due to the impact of the epidemic, it is currently scheduled to be released in North America on September 3, 2021, and I hope that this time it will not jump the ticket, and we will meet as scheduled.
03. Spider-Man 3: Heroes Don't Return
Director: Joe Watts
Starring: Tom Holland, Zadaya, Jacob Batlang
Release Date: December 17, 2021 (USA)
A few days ago, the superhero movie "Spider-Man 3" announced that the official title of the Chinese "Spider-Man - No Way Home" will be released in North America on December 17. This news is undoubtedly worth cheering fans and fans, after all, as the most interesting multiverse work in Marvel's fourth phase, "Spider-Man 3" carries too many expectations.
As we all know, the Dutch brother - Tom Holland's version of "Spider-Man" has been the third reboot of the series, in front of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield (Andrew Garfield) have starred in their own series versions, of course, it is also to the Dutch brother, when Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios opened more collaboration, so that the little spider and the Marvel universe "hooked" up, Spider-Man has also appeared in many Marvel's superhero movies, and Iron Man, as his mentor and friend, has also played an important role in Spider-Man. As a brand new "Spider-Man" movie, it is said that there will be the first two generations of Spider-Man to join, which is undoubtedly a very explosive news, although the official information has not yet been seen, but there is no doubt that Spider-Man's "three generations together" has been eye-catching.
Not only that, but Alfred Molina will continue to play the role of Dr. Octopus in Spider-Man 2, Jamie Fox will continue to star as the Electric Man in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and Paul Giamati may continue to star as the Rhinoceros man in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. There are also rumors that Mary Jane Watson, played by Kirsten Dunst, and Gwen Stacey, played by Emma Stone, will also appear in the film. If this is the case, then this year's upcoming "Spider-Man: Heroes Of No Return" is undoubtedly throwing out the king of the explosion.
04. "007: No Time to Die"
Director: Kerry Fukunaga
Starring: Daniel Craig, Anna de Armas, Leia Saidu, Rami Marek, Ralph Fiennes, Christopher Waltz
Release Date: October 8, 2021 (US)
Among the 007 Bond actors in the past, Daniel Craig is undoubtedly a highly recognized one, but like many of his "predecessors", he also has a moment of farewell, probably this year.
This time in "007: No Time to Die", Daniel Craig once again plays the domineering and elegant James Bond, and Oscar-winning film Rami Marek plays a brutal villain, with new hatred and old resentment intertwined, bringing a series of sinister desperate actions. It will also be Daniel Craig's last appearance as James Bond.
In the film, the world situation is turbulent, bond who is out of the mountains again faces an unprecedented crisis in history, and the story of legendary agent 007 reaches a climax in this film. The new and old characters are combined to appear, and Leia Saidu returns, playing the bond girl Madeleine for the second time. The series's most terrifying villain, Safin (Rami Marek), makes a show of his fierce side without mercy, not only uncovering the secrets hidden in Madeleine, but also brewing a conspiracy to endanger the lives of millions of people, and the ghost party seems to surface again. Agent 00 (Rashner Lynch) and the mysterious woman (Anna de Armas) appear to be fighting Bond, but their true purpose remains a mystery.
New and old grudges about Bond's life and death follow, can he save the world under the dark tide? It seems that these are not important, what is important is that in the ever-changing and ever-changing spy war, Bond maintains the tradition of elegant gentlemen while also demonstrating the super business ability of top agents. It is conceivable that this time 007 Bond, practicing traditional hand-to-hand gun battles is not a problem, driving high-tech equipment is more than enough, the sky into the sea can do everything, peeling away the cocoon like a mystery, a vicious battle from the beginning of the film to the end, very visual impact, let people adrenaline soar, this year, is undoubtedly the "007" fans of the carnival year.
05、 "Dune"
Directed by: Nice Villeneuve
Starring: Timothy Challemet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Dave Batista, Zandaya, Jason Momma, Josh Brolin, Javier Baden
Release Date: October 22, 2021 (USA)
Dune is a science fiction masterpiece long-awaited by fans around the world, co-created by Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, directed by Dennis Villeneuve, the new godfather of science fiction films (director of "Arrival" and "Blade Runner 2049"), which is based on Frank Herbert's famous science fiction novel and starring Timothy Zarame, Rebecca Ferguson, Andrland Skarsgard and others.
As one of the world's first audiences, Zhan Taifeng had the honor to experience the extraordinary charm of the movie "Dune" up close in the IMAX Hall, which was very exciting. But what is more expected is the grand soundtrack created by the god Hans Zimmer for this film, after all, he once said that the original "Dune" novel had a great influence on his childhood, and gave up cooperation with his old partner Nolan's new film.
The cold and poignant alien ecology, the unique poetic universe, and the top audio-visual of the detonation of the ear, make "Dune" worthy of being a commercial masterpiece in the absolute sense, and the ultimate embodiment of the beauty of the "Uyghur" science fiction industry. Whether it's magnificent and fantastic space travel, "sandworms" haunting desert planets, or epic wars on a cosmic scale, the spectacle created by the film will be doubly breathtaking on the IMAX big screen, and the audience will also receive a truly real "crossing" experience, starting a thrilling alien adventure.
The audiovisual effects of the movie scene did not disappoint, a strong sense of immersion, and shocking appeal, so that the audience was deeply immersed in the world of "dunes", with the director's use of images to create a sense of apocalyptic desolation, bringing unprecedented sadness and heaviness, confirming that "Dune" is an epic science fiction blockbuster, the current mainland release time has not yet been announced, but it is enough to make people want to see through.
