Although there are great differences between Eastern and Western cultures, the mysterious creature of the "mermaid" has the same imagination. Whether it is a classic Western fairy tale or an ancient Chinese novel, they all have their presence.
When the art of film and television drama was produced, "mermaid" became a popular object of adaptation. Every few years, movies and TV shows about mermaids appear on big and small screens.
For example, the United States has released a movie called "The Mermaid" in 1984 and 2006, and Disney will also release a live-action movie "The Mermaid" remade from the classic animation in 2023. In 2016, we in China released Stephen Chow's "Mermaid", which not only won the cute star girl "Lin Yun", but also won 3.39 billion at the box office.
Recently, mermaids have become hot words again, and the mermaid images of Tang Yan and Fan Bingbing have surfaced.
On October 26, Tang Yan appeared as the November cover girl of the magazine "Jia Ren". Shooting magazine covers is not new to popular actress Tang Yan, but she is quickly on the hot search because she plays a mermaid in a blockbuster.
Tang Yan's hair in the photo is randomly scattered on both shoulders, the eyes are confused and charming, and the bright stripes are regularly distributed on a long skirt, and Tang Yan's jade feet are not seen at the bottom of the skirt, but it is a very obvious fish tail.
Tang Yan sat on a special high platform, her body was well maintained, she deliberately made an "S" shape, coupled with streamlined clothing and fish tail, the whole person was like an elegant mermaid.
Although Tang Yan is nearly 40 years old, with a good sense of fashion and an ageless face, she still holds the mermaid style perfectly, and this group of blockbusters is quickly out of the circle as soon as it is released.
In addition to Tang Yan's mermaid blockbuster flowing out, Fan Bingbing will also have a mermaid-themed movie released in the near future.
According to Deadline magazine, "The King's Daughter", starring Fan Bingbing, will be released in North America and Canada on January 21, 2022, and the film was originally titled "The Sun moon mermaid", telling the story of King Louis XIV of France who established a huge solar empire and ordered the search for a mermaid hidden in the deep sea and imprisoned it in versailles in order to obtain the mystery of immortality.
The imagination of this film can be described as very rich, grafting the court story of Louis XIV and the myth and legend of the mermaid, in which Fan Bingbing played a mermaid.
The film's lineup can be described as quite luxurious, Louis XIV is played by Pierce Brosnan, who is known for his "007" image, and the reason why Fan Bingbing was asked to play the mermaid, the producer responded: "The role of the mermaid locks Fan Bingbing, and there is no second candidate, she is the mermaid we have been looking for." I hope she can inject a mysterious oriental atmosphere into this Western blockbuster. ”
The film was released as early as 2014, but for various reasons it was released after a gap of 7 years. Although the filmmakers declare: "The audience will fall in love with the most beautiful mermaid in the world played by Fan Bingbing!" However, from the released stills, it is difficult to find the beautiful Fan Bingbing, the dark skin color with the bright spots of the face of the fish scales, not only does not see the goddess temperament at all, but also makes the secret fearer feel uncomfortable.
It can be seen that even if the "mermaids" are played by beautiful women, they will show very different effects because of their appearance and expression.
