in Bangkok are not as interesting as they were in Las Vegas, but it is still worth seeing.
——The Hollywood Reporter

behind the scenes produced a

sequel to a hit comedy that swept the world.

Two years ago, a summer comedy "The Hangover", which was released in the summer, scored a record of 277 million in the box office in North America and became the historical box office of restricted comedies. champion. This movie, which has an investment of 35 million yuan and has nothing special in the lead role and plot outline, is it because of such amazing box office results and public recognition? Speaking of this, the film’s producer and director Todd Phillips said: “This is a script that was born several years ago. When I got it, my instinct told me that it’s worth shooting. It’s very American. Culture tells the story of a group of good friends giving a bachelor party to the buddies who are about to get married. As a result, the audience will discover how crazy this bachelor party is. Just because of a hangover, it will completely change the lives of these people. It Very exaggerated, very surprising. The audience must have never seen such a crazy bachelor party, so I think it will be very interesting to show it on the big screen. The final result of this film is that our entire team did not expect it. This proves that it does capture the hearts of young audiences. It seems that many people have had similar experiences. Some audiences even wrote to me saying that his experience was crazier than in the movie... At that time, we decided We must continue this crazy bachelor party and let everyone see even more crazy adventures."

The shooting plan for the second episode was determined long before the first episode was released. This is purely because the producers felt that the film has the potential to sell, but the investment of 35 million in exchange for the global sales of nearly 500 million is far away. Far beyond the expectations of all walks of life, so the producer also made changes to the filming plan of the film. Regarding this point, Thomas Tour, the producer of the two episodes of "The Hangover," said: "When we were shooting the first episode of "The Hangover", we were already preparing for the second episode of the shooting plan. The protagonist’s schedule did not actually have a mature idea for the story, and the script was not formed. Then "The Hangover" was very popular with the audience, and we began to change the original plan for the second episode, because the plan at that time seemed too much. We feel like we are going to give the audience a surprise in the second episode. Originally, we still planned to shoot in the United States, but as the plan changed, the location was also moved abroad, and finally we chose Thailand. This is a Contains many mysterious Asian cities. It has a poor side and a glamorous side. It is very diversified. Putting it in the movie can provide solid venue support for those wild plots. So we finally chose the place where the story took place. Thailand.” The

first episode is so popular, so what are the box office expectations for the second episode. Speaking of this, director Todd Phillips said: "Actually, the box office of "The Hangover" is already a kind of pressure for us. Of course we want to do better than the first episode, but it is almost impossible. The audience likes "The Hangover" so much, they will have higher expectations for the second episode. We need to do better than the first episode, and much better, in order to get the audience's recognition. This is a kind of kind for the entire production team. Challenges, and burdened with such a heavy mission, we are more at a loss when shooting. So we didn’t think too much about'how to exceed the first episode at the box office'. We thought very simply,'how to shoot one and The first episode is a different but equally interesting bachelor party?’ Based on this premise, we have finished filming "The Hangover 2." I hope the audience will watch it with this mood. This time, the protagonists are in Thailand. The bachelor party experience is not necessarily more crazy and unexpected than the Las Vegas in the first episode. At least, this time we can’t invite the Thai boxing champion like Tyson (laughs). Of course, there will still be surprise your character to appear. I can say with confidence to the audience that the episode, four hangover and Las Vegas will be as interesting as that one. "

Showers intensified

The whole story of "The Hangover" revolves around the stories of a few men's hangovers. This time in the second episode, this is implemented, but it also strengthens the description of the story before and after the hangover. The screenwriters for the second episode are Craig Maising, Scott Armstrong, and director Todd Phillips. Craig Maising, who served as the lead writer, once wrote "Scream 3, 4, 5 "And "Superhero" are familiar with this kind of comedy. For the creative concept of "The Hangover 2", Craig Messing said: "The idea of ​​writing this story is very simple. They were very wary of this time because they had been drunk once, but the more they were wary, the more accidents would happen. They faced more ridicules. Our screenwriters collected a lot of jokes and put them in, and everything revolved around four words. , Unexpected. Yes, the whole story will always have many surprises for the audience. You will never know how the story will develop. Everyone will be very happy to watch the entire movie! This kind of hangover experience is absolutely unprecedented!"

Bradley Cooper, who has officially switched to the big screen from a TV series, has become popular in recent years. "The Hangover", "You Don't Know His Heart" and last year's "Dragon Attack Team" all made this 36-year-old The handsome guy is becoming more and more popular, and the top spot of "Never Ending" at the beginning of the year proves that Bradley Cooper is now bursting with popularity. For this "Hangover 2" that will undoubtedly create a box office miracle. Bradley Cooper said: ""The Hangover" is indeed a very important movie to me. The process of shooting it is very happy, and it is loved so much by the audience, which is also a kind of to me. Definitely. So I took "The Hangover 2" without hesitation. I am still looking forward to the shooting of "The Hangover 3". Several of our actors have really become buddies after the filming. This is also a part of the film that brought me. Pen fortune. Compared with the first episode, my character in "The Hangover 2" got a kind of emotional release. In the first episode, he was suppressed by the environment in which he lived, so he needed an indulgence, but the experience After the story of the first episode, he knows better how to adapt to his life, so in the second episode, he was a lot more relaxed and free, and facing all kinds of absurd encounters, he became different from the first episode. Said that he is more mature. Both movies will make the audience feel rough and dirty. The first episode shows the dark side of Las Vegas during the day, and the sequel is even more spectacular, showing Bangkok, Thailand, which has a population of 7 million. The real side of the city. The protagonist’s adventures are breathtaking. I hope the third episode will be the story of his marriage and hangover (laughs)!" When it comes

to the most eye-catching character in the first episode, there is nothing more than Zach Galifianaki Alan played by Johnny. The bearded and scumbag actor is familiar to the audience for his slightly pathologically neurotic performance in the movie. The director Todd Phillips even customized a "Preliminary Date" for him last year. Speaking of his performance in "The Hangover 2", Zach Galifianakis said: "Allen in this episode will be even more crazy than in the first episode. He hasn't had so many years. Close friends, so being with them will make him particularly excited. This excitement will cause many "disasters", and these disasters constitute the story of the second episode. I like this story very much, and I think the audience will definitely Buy it, because he causes more troubles, and bigger!"
