| NZ may lose 'Hobbit' |
《霍比特人》拟搬出新西兰 |
| Peter Jackson's production company, Wingnut Films, said in a statement Thursday that the actors' move in threatening to boycott the production of "The Hobbit" movies had undermined Warner Bros. confidence in the movie industry of New Zealand, AP reports. "Next week Warners are coming to New Zealand to make arrangements to move the production offshore," the statement said. Production of "The Hobbit" was given the green light from Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema on the weekend, with Jackson as director. Shooting is due to begin in February. But Wingnut Films and the union Actors' Equity have been at loggerheads over pay deals for actors in the $500 million two-film prequel to the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. |
据美联社报道，彼得·杰克逊的制片公司温纽特影片公司周四发表声明表示，演员工会号召抵制《霍比特人》电影的做法使华纳兄弟电影公司对新西兰电影产业的信心大减。声明说：“下周华纳将派人到新西兰筹备将影片制作移师海外。”上周末，华纳兄弟和新线电影公司允许《霍比特人》开拍，杰克逊任导演。电影计划在明年二月份开机。但是在新西兰拍摄这两部投资高达5亿美元的《指环王》前传电影并不容易：温纽特影片公司和演员权益保障协会一直就演员的薪酬协议争执不下。
