In recent years, it has become the norm for classic mythological stories to be adapted, and "Nezha" and "Journey to the West" are among them.
With the explosion of the national comic movie "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending", more and more national comic films have poured into the market, but the final performance is somewhat unsatisfactory.
As of now, "The Devil Boy of Nezha" is still the highest-grossing chinese comic film in the history of mainland films.
In 2019, "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending" was released in major theaters, and the film exploded with stunning Chinese style visual effects and unconventional, subversive adaptations, and the sentence "My life is up to me" is even more memorable.
The film has accumulated more than 5 billion yuan at the box office, ranking among the top two in the history of mainland films, followed by "Hello, Li Huanying" and "Changjin Lake", and is currently ranked fourth in the history of mainland films.
The explosion of the film made many people start to look forward to the sequel, but after more than two years, there was no news of the sequel.
Recently, another "Nezha" movie was finalized, after seeing the movie name, netizens asked "The sequel to "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending" is coming?" The answer is no.
The title of the film is "Nezha: The Rebirth of the Spirit Pearl", and from the title alone, it is indeed easy to misunderstand, because it is very similar to "Nezha's Demon Child Descending", and the film focuses on Nezha's rebirth: after looking for the growth process of memory, the plot development seems to continue "Nezha's Demon Child Descending".
More importantly, the film's concept poster is hand-drawn, which quickly conjures up the latter, so it's hard not to think that the film exists as a sequel.
After digging deeper, the film is indeed not a sequel.
The movie "Nezha: The Rebirth of the Spirit Pearl" tells the story of Nezha who committed suicide after killing Ao Bing, and after being reborn, he lost his memory.
This is basically the continuation of the story of "Nezha Noisy Sea" in childhood.
The hand-painted concept poster as a whole takes the color of the ocean as the background, the two "hands" in the center of the poster are particularly eye-catching, the left is a normal hand, and the right side is made of lotus root, the two "hands" are combined, reminiscent of "Nezha" this time will experience rebirth, and the lotus root and his rebirth must be inextricably linked.
Seeing this, I can't help but think of the process of Nezha reshaping his body with lotus root in the drama "List of Fengshen Gods", and this plot should be reproduced again in the movie.
Although the film is not a sequel to "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending", from the hand-drawn poster, the special effects of the film should not disappoint, but as an online movie, the texture of the film is still worrying.
However, compared with the sequels of "Nezha: The Rebirth of the Spirit Pearl" and "Nezha's Demon Child Descending", the content direction of the two films is the same, but the motivations of the characters are very different, or more look forward to the sequel of "The Magic Child Descending", looking forward to the dumpling director to speed up it!
