has also experienced some very interesting "moments" in the development process of , Marvel, and , and these moments often almost changed the development of many Marvel IPs that we are familiar with to a certain extent. Therefore, today we Let’s talk about the almost-missing moments that Marvel has encountered during the development of Marvel and some Marvel IPs!
[1] James Cameron almost made "Spider-Man";
was in the development of Marvel in the 1980s and 1990s. During this period, Marvel Stan Lee had an increasingly strong intention to turn Marvel stories into movies. For this reason, Stan Lee also traveled to Hollywood in various ways during this period. In 1990, James Carter at the time Mellon once persuaded Carlock Film Company, which produced "Terminator 2", to acquire the film production rights of "Spider-Man".
Even Cameron at the time had publicly revealed his "Spider-Man Vision", and Cameron's structure for the Spider-Man movie framework also gradually formed a more specific structure during his later period when he directed "True Lies" The outline, and when this outline was placed in front of Stan Lee, Mr. Stan Lee also liked it very much.
For this reason, in 1994, Cameron completed the first version of the script. It is said that this version of the script is darker than the Spider-Man movie content that fans expected in the 1990s, and is not a type of movie suitable for family fun.
But what is more embarrassing is:
Later, when the movie project was about to be launched, James Cameron and film producer Menahem Golan refused to deal with it and wanted him to leave the Spider-Man project, but it was obvious that Menahem Golan was not a soft persimmon that could be easily pinched. He directly sued Carlock Film Company to court. In addition, during this period, Carlock Film Company The financial situation was booming, so the "Spider-Man" movie during this period was directly stopped.
For this reason, James Cameron and the "Spider-Man" movie are just a little bit different in fate.
[2] Michael Jackson almost became the boss of Marvel;
During the development of Marvel, there was a period when there was no shortage of money, and there was even a chance to acquire DC, but it also encountered a trough and half a foot. It has entered the door of bankruptcy, one of which was in the 1990s.
During this period, the operational crisis of Marvel Entertainment was relatively serious. It was also during this period that Stan Lee had contact with Michael Jackson and reached an agreement for Michael Jackson to buy Marvel. At that time, Jackson promised Stan Lee Lee, after acquiring Marvel, would put Stan Lee in charge.
However, what is also very embarrassing is:
The reason why Michael Jackson acquired Marvel during this period was because he hoped that Stan Lee could get him the copyright of Spider-Man so that he could star in Spider-Man, but then There are also rumors that some Marvel executives are not willing to let Michael Jackson acquire Marvel, and even directly raised the sale price to prevent Jackson.
In the end, Michael Jackson's acquisition of Marvel failed, and Jackson was just a little bit away from starring in the Spider-Man he longed for.
[3] Marvel and Disco almost succeeded in virtual reality collaboration;
Marvel’s current collaboration is more concentrated within the Marvel universe. Of course, there are also some cross-border peripheral cooperation, but in the early days of Disco, In the very popular era, Marvel had a virtual & reality linkage with disco. At that time, Marvel and Casablanca Records collaborated to create a character named "Disco Queen".
According to Marvel's plan at the time, after Marvel launched this character and accumulated a certain amount of popularity, Casablanca Records would promote a singer, and then both parties announced that this character was the "Disco Queen" of the Marvel universe. prototype, and plans to release corresponding records and movies to achieve the linkage between virtual dimensions and real-life singers.
