Paramount buys the rights to adapt "Da Vinci" at a high price The encounter between two Leonardo's

Paramount paid a seven-figure price for the film adaptation of the biography Leonardo da Vinci.

Paramount paid a seven-figure price for the film adaptation of the biography Leonardo da Vinci.

there is a widely circulated saying about Xiao Li's name: when she was pregnant with him, Xiao Li's mother used to work in Uffizi gallery, Italy. One day in 1974, when her mother was watching a painting by Leonardo da Vinci, the child kicked her in the stomach. The name "Leonardo" came from this.

the two Leonardo intersect again. Actor Leonardo DiCaprio will play Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci in the new film.

the movie is based on Walter Isaacson's new book Leonardo da Vinci. Through the study of Leonardo da Vinci's hundreds of pages of notes, Walter Isaacson interweaves his art and scientific career in his biography, restoring how Leonardo da Vinci, driven by passion, curiosity and imagination, created the Last Supper and the Mona Lisa, and how he could not extricate himself from the study of anatomy, botany, geography and other scientific disciplines.

although the new book is not available until October, the studio is engaged in a fierce competition for the copyright of its film adaptation. In the end, Paramount beat Universal and bought the rights to the adaptation of Leonardo da Vinci for seven figures.

Paramount will work with Little Li's Yabigu Road Company (AppianWay) to make the film. The Wild Hunter, which the two sides had previously worked with, finally became an Oscar actor after years of running with Xiao Li.

Walter Isaacson is one of the most famous biographers of his time. Biographies written by the former CNN president and time editor-in-chief include Biography of Steve Jobs, Biography of Franklin, Kissinger and Biography of Einstein.

the Biography of Steve Jobs is the blueprint for the biography of Steve Jobs starring French Shark, while the Biography of Einstein was featured on the National Geographic Channel. The response to film and television works is good, which may explain why the copyright of Walter Isaacson's book was hotly contested before it went on sale.

Biography movies are familiar to Xiao Li, whose characters have a legendary and perverse side, from "the Flying Man" to "the Wolf of Wall Street" to "the Wild Hunter". This time Leonardo da Vinci is no exception, there are seeds of paranoia and even extremes in his character. Leonardo da Vinci's illegitimate identity, same-sex experience and sometimes heretical character are also the key points portrayed in the biography. When it comes to the screen, these are all the performances of Xiao Li.
