Chapter 578: Opportunity Comes(2/2)

Jon Favreau nodded. There was no other way. "This is the only way. By the way, Robert Downey Jr. asked me about Tony Stark before."

Kevin Feige shook his head and said: "Forget it about Robert Downey Jr., although Marvel is having a difficult time now, they won't use a stained actor!"

Robert Downey Jr. was considered a popular star in Hollywood in the early 1990s.

Robert Downey Jr. is born into the second generation of stars. His father is a Hollywood director and his mother is a Hollywood actor. Robert Downey Jr. perfectly inherited the advantages of both of them.

In 1993, he was nominated for the Best Actor Award for "Chaplin". At that time, Robert Downey Jr. was only 27 years old!

It's a pity that Robert Downey Jr., who became famous at a young age, soon lost himself, went astray, and was even forced to do it later.

Now that Kevin Feige is so desperate for "Iron Man", how could he possibly agree to let Robert Downey Jr. become Iron Man?

"Actually, I think Robert Downey Jr. should be allowed to audition. After all, he was a very good actor before, and I heard that he has now gotten rid of his bad habits."

Jon Favreau knows Robert Downey Jr., and although he is not sure whether Robert Downey Jr. will meet his requirements after the costume fitting, he believes that Robert Downey Jr. should be given a chance.

Kevin Feige glanced at Jon Favreau. At this time, he didn't want to refute Jon Favreau's opinion too much. After all, there are only two of them in the entire crew now. Jon Favreau would not be happy if it was done to him.

, I am really left with the bare commander.

"Okay, just send him an audition notice!" Kevin Feige finally agreed.

However, although he agreed to Jon Favreau to let Robert Downey Jr. audition, Kevin Feige decided to tell Jon Favreau not to use Robert Downey Jr. after the audition.

And at that time, Kevin Feige also believed that they could find the right actor after auditions.

Jon Favreau was very happy to see Kevin Feige agree to his request. He likes the movie Iron Man very much and hopes to direct this movie.

Every director hopes to have a certain say in the crew, especially directors under the Hollywood system, who hope to have more rights.

In the Hollywood system, the most powerful person is the film producer. Usually, after a producer finds a good film project, he then starts recruiting directors and actors.

The rights of the director have been greatly reduced, and the most important thing is that if the director is disobedient, he can be replaced by the producer at any time.

After John Woo came to Hollywood, he once said that he was one of the few Hollywood film directors who has the editing rights for the films he shoots. This sounds very high-level. In fact, such a director ranks in the Hollywood director pyramid.

above, he can only be regarded as a director in the middle position.

A director who truly has power in Hollywood is one who can serve as the director of a movie and also be the producer of the movie. This is the real power.

Directors in this category include Spielberg, Lucas and others.

Jon Favreau naturally cannot reach this level now, but he still hopes to have more say in this movie.

"Okay, I'll notify him later!" Jon Favreau said happily.

Kevin Fitch said: "I will go to Wall Street in the next two days to talk to Merrill Lynch again. I hope it can be successful this time!"

Kevin Fitch has gone to Wall Street many times, but so far the only one that can get them to accept the contract is Merrill Lynch.

Jon Favreau naturally had no say in this kind of thing, and said: "Then I'll start auditioning actors here!"

Kevin Feige nodded and said, "That's all we can do, let's work separately!"

After the meeting with Jon Favreau, Kevin Feige went to meet Stan Lee again. Although Stan Lee has now established his own company, Stan Lee's reputation in Marvel is too great.

At the same time, he still has some shares in Marvel. Kevin Feige has just taken over Avi Arad's position not long ago, and Marvel needs someone to support him.

Nowadays, Marvel's copyright distribution is also quite troublesome. First of all, the major shareholders must be Toy Biz Toys, Stan Lee, and many Wall Street investors.

Although Kevin Feige and Avi Arad had a good relationship before, they also have some problems now.

He could only seek support from Stan Lee.

Fortunately, Stan Lee's current obsession is to bring Marvel's superheroes to the big screen, so he is very supportive of Kevin Feige.

After receiving the support of Stan Lee, Kevin Feige finally got over his heavy heart.

After returning to his home, Kevin Feige sat in his study, with a huge Marvel comic behind him. This was his goal. Although Marvel is now poor, Kevin.

Feige believes that under his leadership, Marvel will become one of the seven major Hollywood companies.

By that time, he would be one of the most powerful people in Hollywood!

Also on this night, the anxious Robert Downey Jr. received a call from Jon Favreau, who informed him that he would audition for the company tomorrow.

After receiving the news, Robert Downey Jr. waved his fist excitedly. Robert Downey Jr., who was once famous in Hollywood, has plummeted in status since he came out.

In the past, only Hollywood's A-level movies could catch Robert Downey Jr.'s eyes. Now, Robert Downey Jr. has recommended himself to so many film crews that he doesn't even remember it, but the result is undoubtedly not to take advantage of it.

Returned disappointed.

In the end, I could only play supporting roles in some low-budget movies.

Some time ago, he learned that Marvel Studios was preparing to invest in the filming of "Iron Man", and he immediately thought of his friend Jon Favreau.

Fortunately, Jon Favreau did not directly reject him like others, and promised that he would fight for himself in front of Kevin Feige. Now he finally has the good news!

It seems that he is really grateful to the person who knocked him down today. Although he didn't see clearly who it was, he heard the voice of "Iron Man", and now the opportunity has come.
