During the New Year's Day holiday, many people will choose to watch movies, and Andy Lau's fans have a happy trouble, because he has two movies released, one is "Stealth" and the other is "Goldfinger". Andy Lau is the absolute male number one in "Sneaking", but he is the second male number in "Goldfinger". The male number one in "Goldfinger" is Tony Leung, why is Andy Lau willing to play a supporting role for Tony Leung?Today we are going to talk about this topic.
Andy Lau and Tony Leung worked together again after 20 years
Goldfinger is a drama crime film produced by Emperor Films, written and directed by Zhuang **, and starring Tony Leung, Andy Lau, Cai Zhuoyan, Ren Dahua, Fang Zhongxin, Jiang Haowen, Qian Jiale, etc. This is Andy Lau and Tony Leung's second collaboration after 20 years, and the last time they collaborated on a movie was "Infernal Affairs 3", which was released in 2003. "Infernal Affairs 1" and "Infernal Affairs 3" are both "two-male" movies, Andy Lau and Tony Leung have similar roles, and they are tied for the male lead.
Andy Lau and Tony Leung collaborated for the first time in the TV series "Falcon" broadcast in 1982, Andy Lau is the male number one, playing a police officer, and Tony Leung is just the younger brother of the girlfriend who plays the male number one, which is not very eye-catching. At that time, Andy Lau and Tony Leung were both newcomers and TVB artists, so they listened to the company's arrangements for everything, and it didn't matter who was the protagonist and who was the supporting role.
In "Goldfinger", what are the roles of Andy Lau and Tony Leung
Goldfinger" filmmaker publicity: Tony Leung and Andy Lau are tied for the male lead, but Andy Lau has fewer scenes, only equivalent to about a quarter of Tony Leung's role, Andy Lau is just a friendly cameo, not a male protagonist at all. The filmmaker just took a fancy to Andy Lau's box office appeal, so it claimed to be a "two-male movie".
41 years ago, it was normal for Tony Leung to play a supporting role for Andy Lau;But nowadays, it is not normal for anyone to play a supporting role for the other party, it is an act of self-surrender, and fans of the supporting role will feel ashamed. Tony Leung and Andy Lau used to be teammates, and they both belonged to a member of the "Wireless Five Tigers", but now they are "lifelong enemies" and competitors.
Andy Lau plays a supporting role for Tony Leung, which is related to various factors such as the actor's contract, the setting of the script, and the director's decision. But in the final analysis, it is because Andy Lau is broad-minded, he doesn't mind playing supporting roles for competitors, he only cares about good scripts and good roles. And Andy Lau is a well-known good man, and he often acts in some movies that don't seem so good because of "returning favors".
"Goldfinger" is good**
Goldfinger is a very good movie, which successfully blends plot, crime, and business elements to present an intense and exciting story for the audience. At the same time, the film also tells the story of Cheng Yiyan (played by Tony Leung), showing the complexity of human nature and the cruelty of the business world. If you like crime-themed movies, then this movie is not to be missed.
Zhuang ** has directed many classic films such as the "Infernal Affairs" series, the "Eavesdropping" series, and "Wushuang", and has a deep foundation in the production of Hong Kong films. Zhuang **'s creative style is unique, and he is good at integrating complex psychological descriptions and human nature into the plot, which makes his works not only ornamental, but also deep and thoughtful. Andy Lau took over the role of "Goldfinger", which should also give Zhuang ** face, and they want to make "Goldfinger" the next "Infernal Affairs".
The producer of "Goldfinger" is Emperor Films, and Andy Lau also gave face to his boss Yang Shoucheng. The entertainment industry is not about fighting and killing, but about the sophistication of people;Andy Lau helped Yang Shoucheng this time, and next time Yang Shoucheng will find Andy Lau to act in movies, such as "Rage: Spread" starring Andy Lau and Nicholas Tse, the box office of this movie is expected to exceed 1 billion.
Andy Lau really regards Tony Leung as a brother
Entertainment critic Wu Qinggong was invited to participate in the premiere of "Goldfinger" and found that Andy Lau was really good to Tony Leung and really regarded the other party as a brother. Andy Lau ridiculed Tony Leung for not smiling on the set, and only "laughing" when he was playing. Tony Leung looks like an I-person, but when discussing the script, he is very good.
In addition, the two also took a group photo at the scene, holding each other's shoulders and smiling. Every time, Andy Lau takes the initiative and Tony Leung is passive. Andy Lau also said: They will often be in the same frame, it seems that there will be new cooperation again, I hope that next time Tony Leung will play a supporting role for Andy Lau, or "two male leads", otherwise Andy Lau fans will really be angry.
