The writers and directors behind the Marvel Studios movie are set to bring “The Gray Man” – a film based on a series of bestsellers from Mark Greaney – to the streaming giant and the big wigs have committed more than $200 million to the project that will see Evans opposite Gosling as his character's arch-nemesis.

流媒體巨頭Netflix和重量級(jí)的投資人為新片《灰色人(暫譯)》狂擲2億多美元,該片將由漫威幕后團(tuán)隊(duì)制作,改編自馬克·格里尼的系列暢銷書(shū)?!懊狸?duì)”克里斯·埃文斯和“高司令”瑞恩·高斯林演對(duì)手戲,兩人在劇中是勁敵關(guān)系。

The astronomical figure is significant given the fact that it will mark the first time in the company's history that it has elected to climb to such heights in order to finance a blockbuster of this scale.

這筆巨額投資非常引人注目,畢竟這是Netflix史上最大規(guī)模的電影投資。

Gosling, 39, is tapped to star as an ex-CIA operative, Court Gentry, who has since become a gun-for-hire while Evans, also 39, plays Gentry's former colleague, Lloyd Hansen, who is handed the obvious assignment of pursuing Gentry.

39歲的高斯林飾演Court Gentry,一名曾是前中情局特工的職業(yè)槍手;同是39歲的埃文斯飾演Gentry的前同事,他受命去追捕Gentry。

“The Gray Man” will be written and directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, two brothers who Evans is incredibly familiar with, in the sense that the Russo brothers also helmed “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” which starred Evans in 2014.

《灰色人》由Joe Russo和Anthony Russo擔(dān)任編劇和導(dǎo)演,Russo兄弟二人在2014年曾執(zhí)導(dǎo)埃文斯出演的《美國(guó)隊(duì)長(zhǎng):冬日戰(zhàn)士》,埃文斯和這兩兄弟的關(guān)系非常好。

“The movie is a real mano a mano between those two great actors who represent two different versions of the CIA, in what it can be, and what it can do,” Anthony Russo told Deadline. “For those who were fans of 'Captain America: Winter Soldier,' this is us moving into that territory in more of a real-world setting. That's what this movie really means for us.”

Anthony Russo對(duì)Deadline網(wǎng)站說(shuō):“這部電影是這兩大演員之間真正的1對(duì)1對(duì)決,他們代表了中情局的兩面,一個(gè)代表了它的設(shè)立目標(biāo),另一個(gè)則代表了它的力量。我想告訴《美國(guó)隊(duì)長(zhǎng):冬日戰(zhàn)士》的粉絲們,這部劇的設(shè)定更接近現(xiàn)實(shí)世界。這就是它的意義所在。”

What's more, is the original "Gray Man" project reportedly began its development some years back at New Regency with Brad Pitt and James Gray tied to the project at the time, however, the project stalled and the Russos swooped in and have been quietly developing it for years, according to the outlet.

此外據(jù)媒體報(bào)道,最初《灰色人》的項(xiàng)目是在幾年前由New Regency制片公司籌備的,當(dāng)時(shí)布拉德·皮特和詹姆斯·格雷也有參與。但后來(lái)項(xiàng)目暫停,由Russo兄弟二人接手,他們悄無(wú)聲息地籌備了多年。
