In a poster, three people of similar size appear at the same time, and each one has a big head, then this play must not be simple.
For example, the great director Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman", the poster is Robert De Niro in the middle, and on both sides are Al Pacino and Joe Percy.
For another example, the movie that I want to introduce today focuses on the realism harassment scandal that shocked the United States, "Breaking News".
The poster brings together three heroines at once: Nicole Kidman, Charlize Theron, and Margot Robbie. The United Kingdom first, the United States has not yet been released, the current Douban score of 7.7 points, Rotten Tomatoes freshness is not high, but the popcorn index of 91%.
When it comes to the origins of putting them in a play, we have to mention harvey Weinstein, a former famous Hollywood filmmaker.
Not long ago, Harvey Weinstein, who was about to be tried for rape, appeared in the Manhattan court in the United States. Weinstein in the camera is old and toddler, and even needs crutches and others to help him travel.
He did produce and distribute a number of classic films, but none of them could offset the harm he inflicted on women, and the awards he judged were not all deserved. The infamous Weinstein needed to be nailed to the column of shame in film history, spurned and used to warn future generations.
Before Weinstein's sex scandal came to light, there was also a "big man" in the American media industry, Roger Ayers, who was discredited for being accused of sexual harassment.
Composed of Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman and Margot Robbie, the biographical film "Breaking News" based on this life is about to be released in the United States, and in the star-studded awards season, it really dropped a big "bomb".
In 2016, more than 20 women came forward to accuse U.S. media executive Roger Ailes of sexual harassment. A series of breaking news plagued Ayers' lawsuits, and Roger Ailes was forced to resign in July 2016 after repeatedly sexually harassing multiple subordinates, including celebrity anchors.
Who is Roger Ayres?
In the American media industry, he was a big man who called the wind and rain.
Ayers is one of the founders of Fox News, served as chairman and CEO of Fox News and Television, cultivated well-known hosts such as Megan Kelly, Gretchen Carlson, Sean Hannedy, and was the right-hand man of media tycoon Murdoch, earning $20 million a year at his peak.
In addition to running Fox News, Ayers' influence in politics should not be underestimated. He has helped elect three Republican presidents and has served as an adviser to incumbents, assisting them in their televised debates.
Apparently, Ayers was more powerful and naturally more rampant than Harvey Weinstein.
At staff meetings, he repeatedly asked women to turn around and pose for him so that they could be observed, and even explicitly suggested that female employees have sex.
Boasting that he had slept with three "Miss America" was his mantra, and even at the age of 76, he often squinted at his female subordinates, judging their legs and suggesting that they wear tights that would highlight their figures.
Well-known anchor Gretchen Carlson (a stanford graduate, former Miss Usa) was the first to stand up, and when she complained to her supervisor about being harassed by Ailes, she was severely dismissed and ended up with a "misogyny" title.
She was not the only woman in the company to have been treated like that, the superior said.
Faced with allegations of sexual harassment, Ayers spent millions of dollars behind his back to discredit his opponents' personal reputations while closely monitoring their words and deeds. Opponents of him were either bribed by money or retaliated against, and Carlson, who had been fighting, was even fired by Fox on the expiration date of his contract.
Fortunately, Carlson's bravery has led more and more women to come forward and accuse Ayers of sexual harassment or assault as witnesses or victims. Among them, including anchor Megan Kelly, who has interviewed foreign dignitaries.
Megan Kelly has said in her autobiography that Ayers repeatedly asked to have sex with her on the grounds that he could help her career, and repeatedly made inappropriate sexually suggestive remarks, even forcibly kissing her in the office.
It's so similar to carlson's lawsuit to the court, where Ailes said, I think we should have had a relationship before, so you're going to be better off now, and I'm going to be better off.
In the East Window incident, the news station tried to put pressure on Kelly and forced her to come forward to support Ailes, but she refused, and she voluntarily left Fox News.
In a subsequent lawsuit, Carlson was also awarded $20 million in compensation. But infuriatingly, Ayers received $40 million in severance pay when he left and continued to serve as an adviser to Murdoch.
The workplace is like a battlefield, and the drama that took place on the Fox News Channel can already smell the smoke that permeates the screen from the trailers and clips released before.
Most anticipated, charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, and Margot Robbie played on the same stage. Three are film queens, two of them are Oscar queens, any one is enough to pick the beams, "Breaking News" this time a net, is even more explosive news!
Not long ago, the Golden Globe Nomination List was announced, and for her wonderful performance in "Breaking News", Charlize Theron was nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Film, and Margot Robbie was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
And in the Oscar's most important weathervane, the Screen Actors Guild Award nominations, Theron (Best Actress), Nicole (Best Supporting Actress) and Robbie (Best Supporting Actress) were all nominated, and the crew also won the Best Group Scene Four Mentions.
It can be seen that the acting skills of several actresses have once again been affirmed by professionals.
In the previous two days, another important Oscar weathervane, the American Critics' Choice Award nomination, "Breaking News" also won four mentions - Best Actress (Theron), Best Supporting Actress (Robbie), Best Group Scene and Best Hair Makeup.
There is no doubt that the best group scene, and many of the supporting roles who cooperate with the three goddesses are also excellent.
John Lisgo (The Crown), Kate McKinnon (Saturday Night Live), Malcolm McDowell (Clockwork Orange), Nazanin Boniati (Hotel Mumbai, Iron Man), Alison Jenny (American Beauty), Alice Eve (Men in Black 3, Black Mirror s3), Ashley Greene (Twilight Zone)...
This is probably one of the reasons why "Breaking News" "exploded".
Best hairstyle makeup, basically no run. When the trailer was first released, many people rushed to the three goddesses to combine, and after watching the trailer, they looked confused, feeling cheated, and couldn't find where Theron was.
Theron (as Megan Kelly) not only wears plastic surgery-like makeup and hair, but she also changes her voice to be closer to the real person, and she is shocked.

When Grenchen Carlson, played by Kidman, released the stills, it also stunned fans, which is also too similar, is it really not Carlson himself to play?

Because Robbie's character is fictional, she is the only person in the poster who looks "normal".
Anyway, as long as it is a real person, it seems that I came to the set to make a cameo.
At the center of this "breaking news", Roger Ayers (John Lisgo) naturally strives to restore.

However, he was the only character he would not appear again, because of hemophilia, Roger Ayers, 77, died on May 18, 2017, less than a year after he left Fox.
The $40 million in severance pay, he was not blessed to suffer.
It was also shortly after Roger Ayers' death that Breaking News was announced for development, but he never got a chance to see the film (not even a chance to complain).
When he died, CNN commentator Mark Lamont Hill posted online: "Roger Ayres is dead. I would like to send sincere condolences to everyone who has been abused, harassed, taken advantage of and unjustly expelled by him. ”
Once the ugly news explodes, what remains is a thousand years of stink.
Guess what, in the upcoming awards season, the three heroines, who will have the last laugh?
