Chapter 342 Dark Knight
A government is addicted to manipulating everything with its power, but ignores people's humanity and morality. The imbalance of power and the terrible lack of credibility have become the last straw that overwhelms Gotham's bright side.
And what is Batman's role here?
A middle-aged uncle faces social changes and strives to stick to his own persistence.
The ridiculous persistence even subverted the DC's usual setting of "people love and support superheroes".
Under the guidance of the media and politicians and under the boiling of social public opinion, Batman truly became a "lone walker".
This comic doesn't feel like he is describing a superhero, but uses Batman to tell the story of Gotham City and the collapse of the system.
There was no force breaking through the sky, but a knight's resistance in the darkness.
Nolan unconsciously brought himself into the director's perspective.
Looking at the comics with an adaptation.
The city of Gotham is like a melting pot, hiding all the darkness and violence under the false beauty.
Such a story and such a setting aroused Nolan's great interest.
That night, he thought a lot.
It was not until the next day when he met Lehman again that he had the intention of real cooperation.
When Lehman saw Nolan having such an idea, he was happy and said: "Nolan, as long as we finalize the framework and script, Warner will likely agree to entrust us to shoot."
Just yesterday, Barry Meyer also called.
It is said that the board of directors has initially agreed to the cooperation plan, but some considerations are still needed.
Such an answer that did not completely refuse means that Warner was moved.
However, there is no complete consensus yet.
"Yeah, I get it."
Hearing that he had the heart to take over, Lehman continued to make suggestions: "Nolan, are you interested in joining Firefly Pictures in the studio? In this way, we can prepare for this project more thoroughly."
Some things must be done in advance.
If Warner Bros. wants to play a rogue after seeing the first one, at least he can hold Nolan's trump card as a condition for negotiation.
Nolan didn't think so much, but he could guess part of Lehman's plan.
After all, if you want to adapt Batman and want to restore a comic-like Gotham City, you will definitely not have too little investment.
Then such a high investment cannot be cultivated as an outsider.
Join Firefly Pictures, that is, your own people, and when they work together, the relationship between the two parties will be closer.
“No problem.”
"Okay, I'll ask Johnson to help."
The director's establishment of a personal studio is the mainstream in Hollywood today.
Nolan had nothing to be tempted, especially Lehman agreed. He had great freedom. Fireflies would not interfere too much about shooting, what subjects to filming, and how to filming.
In addition, although Firefly Pictures has a bad foundation, it is a better place to make good deals with major distribution manufacturers such as Paramount, Europa, and Warner.
After finalizing the joining, Lehman conceived his work while also taking on the heavy responsibility of production and began to formulate a relatively complete project plan, and waited for the script to be written and presented to Warner for review.
Warner is also worried about such a trump card project.
