"Where did you find these two guys? Leonardo couldn't help but ask on the way back to the set.

Martin said calmly:"If you bloom, butterflies will come. I didn't come for them, they came to me on their own initiative.""

"Farke, can you not show off?"

"cannot!"

Leonardo couldn't help but said to Drew and Annie:"I don't know how you can stand him~. Drew said matter-of-factly:"He is strong!""

Anne said with admiration:"He is amazing! Leonardo didn't want to talk at all, and thought to himself:"I was wrong. Really, it turns out that I am the outlier in this car!"!!"

Martin glanced at the two women in the rearview mirror and felt that they didn't mean the same thing!

…………

"How's it going? Did you find anything? Why is Martin not optimistic about"Kingdom of Heaven"?》?"

In a cafe, Tom Cruise didn't even look at the expensive Blue Mountain coffee on the table, but stared at the middle-aged man in front of him, his agent-Brian Kyle.

Brian Kyle spread his hands:"There is no news. As I said, it is difficult to find out, and Martin will not be stupid enough to say this everywhere."

"Damn it!"Tom Cruise slapped his thigh angrily.

Brian Kyle added:"But I heard a piece of news. Twentieth Century Fox asked William Monahan to change the script. Also, Brad Pitt is publicizing Red. Liscott, they've had dinner and coffee."

Tom Cruise suppressed his anger and fell into thinking.

After a moment, he raised his head and said:"No matter what, just fight for this project with all your strength. You also make appointments for me with Ridley Scott, oh, and William. Monaghan, I need to talk to them."

"no problem!"Brian Kyle breathed a sigh of relief.

…………

In mid-May,"Brokeback Mountain" was completed.

On this day, Martin and Christopher Nolan made an appointment to meet on the set of"The New Batman".

Yes, the crew for the dark version of"Batman" has been assembled.

In a conference room next to the soundstage, Ben Affleck is chatting with Katie Holmes, his childhood sweetheart who will play him in the film.

I don’t know what Ben Affleck said that made Katie Holmes laugh so hard.

Gary Oldman, who was sitting on the other side of the table, was looking at the script in his hand, reading a few sentences in a low voice from time to time, and occasionally communicating with Michael Caine, who played Alfred (the master's butler).

After reading a few more lines, Gary Oldman turned his head and was about to say something to Michael Caine. Suddenly -

Michael Caine stood up from his seat and faced the door with a humble smile.

"Hello Director Nolan!"

"Hello Mr. Meyers!"

Michael Caine's action shocked everyone. All the actors in the conference room, including Ben Affleck, stood up and greeted the two people who came in from the door.

Of course, they mainly greeted Martin. They had just said hello to Martin. Ben Affleck's flirtatious Katie Holmes, with her face flushed and eyes watery, just wanted to pounce on Martin and have a safe life.

"Mr. Meyers, Mr. Nolan"

"Hello Mr. Meyers"

"Mr. Meyers."

Everyone said hello.

Nolan and Martin walked to the front of the long table. Nolan clapped his hands, pointed at Martin and said with a smile:"Guys, you have all seen that today I invited Martin to join us. It’s a script study session, so cheer up. As the creator of the new Batman script, Mr. Martin will obviously have a deeper understanding of the plot and characters. Let's hear what he has to say!"

The applause rang out.

Martin waited for a moment, then stretched out his hands and pressed down. After it calmed down, he said:

"Don't be so excited. As the screenwriter of this film, I will stay on the crew for a while. If you have more contact with me in the future, you will know that I am actually a very amiable person!"

The laughter was very embarrassing.

Martin continued:"Speaking of the script, I think everyone should have read the complete script."

"The Bruce Wayne I created is no longer an all-powerful superhero wrapped in armor and a mask. He is first and foremost a human being. As he grows up, he will have the human heart and the struggling side of humanity."

"This film is not a simple popcorn movie, but a film that directly touches people's hearts and the darkest side of society, showing the collision caused by different ideologies and personal ideas."

"Darkness will be the tone of the trilogy"

"You may be wondering, will such a superhero movie that is very different from the past really have a box office?"

"Believe me, there will be. In a world where superhero blockbusters are becoming increasingly homogeneous, a unique dark-style superhero movie may even become synonymous with high-end style."

"Moreover, it is not that there are no commercial elements in the film. Otherwise, those technological equipment, exciting fights, gun battles and car chase scenes would have been in vain for me." laughter

"This film will be both commercial and artistic, and I believe that Director Nolan will be able to grasp the appropriateness of it."

"Okay, let’s talk about the specific roles.……"

The script workshop lasted three hours, and Martin gave an in-depth analysis of almost every main character and answered many questions.

Christopher Nolan is very happy with this.

If another screenwriter were to overstep his authority like this, I'm afraid Christopher Nolan, the director, would be very angry, but - this is Martin!

Moreover, what Martin said was really in line with the ideas he had thought about in his mind, but he had not yet formed a system, which gave him a sense of joy of encountering a surprise.

Therefore, after the script workshop, Nolan specifically chatted with Martin about some of his shooting ideas.

"I want to use more long lenses for this shooting, so that the inner struggles and changes of the characters can be reflected in more detail.……"

"When it comes to color grading, it will be mainly dark, but some shots will have some orange filters to ease the audience's emotions.……"

"I can see that Martin you want to express some philosophy and thoughts under the dark tone of this film, and I will try my best to express them.……"

"And I found that the villains in this trilogy really broke away from the stereotyped image. They all have the same thinking and philosophical color as the positive characters. Every villain has a tragic past, which also makes Batman’s unhappiness There is a better reason to kill. This kind of swing of values ​​​​and thinking about justice and evil are definitely beyond the reach of previous superhero movies.……"

The more Nolan talked, the more excited he became.

In the process, he happened to clear up his thoughts.

"Especially the role of the Joker, I can't describe how wonderful he is. This may become an innovation in the history of film aesthetics - dark aesthetics."
