Chapter 4 - He Is Spider-Man!

The filming of "Spider-Man" is in full swing.

Different from the "Spider-Man" and "The Amazing Spider-Man" that Xu Can was familiar with in his previous life,

Spider-Man in the parallel world is almost a fusion of the two.

The emotional and daily parts mainly use the "Garfield version", girlfriend Gwen Stacy.

There are no dramas about love triangles or transference;

The action and main plot parts adopt the "Toby version",

It mainly talks about the origin of Spider-Man, the death of Uncle Ben, "with great power comes great responsibility", and fighting crime.

The final boss is the old Green Goblin Norman Osborn.

This version of the script is a script that the producer and Xu Can had many in-depth discussions with.

Xu Can analyzed several Spider-Man movies thoroughly from a macro perspective of the future.

The writing team was greatly inspired,

Therefore, the advantages and disadvantages of the two versions of the movie are combined to create a brand new Spider-Man universe!

So much so that the producer suggested to Sony Pictures to add Xu Can's name to the screenwriter column.

This movie is their joint creation!

"There are more than 32,000 kinds of spiders in the world, and different types of spiders have different abilities."

"For example, this one's nerve reflexes are so fast that it produces a kind of predictive ability, the spider's sixth sense..."

"Osborne Technology has been researching for many years, combining various spider RNAs to form new genomes, and creating these super spiders..."

"Sorry, it seems a spider is missing and the box is empty."

"Maybe it was used for research. Let's move on to the next item."

"Hey, Gwen, can I take a picture of you...uh, for the school magazine."

"Okay, just don't make me look too ugly."

A group of people from Midtown High School visited the Osborne Science and Technology Laboratory.

Peter Parker, who had a crush on Gwen for a long time, finally found an opportunity to strike up a conversation with her when she was alone.

Emma Stone suddenly felt a sense of disobedience.

Xu Can is obviously very sunny and handsome in person, and chatting can always make her laugh and cry.

Unexpectedly, during the performance,

He can actually express the nervousness and embarrassment of high school students naturally.

It almost didn't look like an act, the person in front of her was the boy next door who had a crush on her.

With such an excellent opposite role as Xu Can,

Emma Stone's performance was also inspired, and the two became more and more understanding.

Director Mark Webb looked on and nodded repeatedly.

"Mark, what are you laughing at?"

The assistant director muttered quietly.

"They are so at odds with each other... shut up, they are still filming!"

I saw the director looking like he was chewing candy.

The assistant director shook his head helplessly.

Can a director who makes romance movies really make such a special effects action blockbuster?

After the 21st century, there has not been any successful comic book movie.

He couldn't help but cast a shadow in his heart.

The filming of the opening scene was basically completed smoothly.

The crew are heading towards New York City, and the rest of the film will be completed in this largest city in North America.

Sony Pictures has a ready-made special effects studio in New York.

There are also some outdoor scenes that need to be shot on the streets of New York.

This is the part that Mark Webb worries about,

If Xu Can's action scene does not go well, the investment budget of the entire film will increase exponentially.

You know, this is the darkest time for comic book movies.

Sony Pictures has struggled to convince executives to make Spider-Man, and the budget itself is tight.

In case the project does not go smoothly,

It is very likely that Sony executives will simply abandon the "Spider-Man" project and completely give up on this idea.

The film is either shoddily produced, hastily released and has a bad reputation;

Or be cut in half directly.

Mark Webb has been preparing for so long and really doesn't want to see this ending.

So the key to everything lies with Xu Can,

He's done a great job playing Peter Parker before, and now it's his turn to play the real Spider-Man!

"Are you ready? Don't be nervous. It doesn't matter if you don't do it right the first time. We can take more shots."

This scene is Peter Parker's first awakening after being bitten by a super spider.

Suddenly woke up in the New York subway,

After being provoked by the homeless man, he used acrobatic moves to take down multiple opponents.

Marc Webb pursues the smoothness and look of action scenes.

In his opinion, he wanted to make this set of shots cool enough.

The requirements for actors are quite high!

Even though Xu Can has learned martial arts, he is still a novice with no experience in action scenes.

In addition, in order to pursue the realism of the scene, the crew specially shot the scene on the New York subway.

In addition to the cost of film, the cost of venue rental is also a large amount per second.

Marc Webb was even prepared to use a stunt double.

"Don't worry, director, I'll be fine."

Xu Can is quite confident.

"Okay, all units, pay attention!"

"...Prepare for the first time, Action!"

Following the director's order, extra actors playing subway homeless people came to Xu Can's side.

But I saw the homeless man put a beer bottle on Peter Parker's head,

The moment the cold water droplets slide down,

Peter opened the wine bottle at a speed that was incomprehensible to ordinary people. His whole body was as light as a swallow and he instantly jumped to the roof of the car!

"Cut!"

"good!"

Mark Webb couldn't help but cheer!

Xu Can completely mastered the essentials of the action in just one attempt!

The movements he performed were even more perfect than those designed by the movement instructor!

The moment Xu Can lay on the roof of the car,

Marc Webb literally saw Spider-Man himself!

Xu Can's cool and smooth movements amazed everyone present and they all applauded.

"So cool!"

"HolyShit! Cow batch!"

Mark Webb's heart dropped from his throat,

The next shots seem to go smoothly!

Sure enough, in the next set of fighting scenes, Xu Can was possessed by Spider-Man!

He took advantage of the space in the subway car and performed a series of incredible moves that were dazzling!

Mark Webb originally envisioned,

Utilizing a series of frame extraction and quick editing can make up for the shortcomings of the actor's imperfect movements.

Try to use technical means to cover up flaws.

Who would have thought,

Xu Can's real shots are simply surprising!

These fist and kick action shots are all real.

All kinds of dazzling twists and turns are simply better than acrobats!

I originally planned a whole day of shooting.

In less than two hours, Xu Can got it all done!

The filming progress was so smooth that Mark Webb couldn't believe it!

"Cut! Great!"

"We finished the work successfully today!"

The crew happily packed up and got ready to get off work.

Just then producer Avi Arad called.

"What? If today's shooting doesn't go well, I can try to apply to the New York City government for an extension..."

"No, the filming has finished!"

"Huh?" The producer suspected that he heard wrongly.

"Seriously, why haven't I discovered Xu Can before...I'm sure this Spider-Man will definitely make a splash in the world!"
