Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 532 Film Launch, Casting, Who Will Play Hannibal?
The Sixth Sense is not a simple and pure ghost movie, but a film that explores family issues.

The character of the boy Cole evokes sympathy in the audience.

Despite the shock, the author's emotional writing was incredibly vivid and insightful.

For example, the friendship between a boy and his psychologist, the affection between a boy and his mother, and the love between a psychologist and his wife.

Despite its aloofness, it is full of human warmth.

What is particularly commendable is the shift in film genres.

The film shifts from a thriller at the beginning to a ghost story in the middle, before taking a sharp turn in the end, becoming a heartwarming family film.

The final twist was even more surprising and astonishing.

Perhaps it wouldn't be too surprising for today's "well-informed" audiences, but in this day and age, it would definitely be described as "stunning"!
When Amuro Tooru and the others saw the truth revealed at the end, they all showed expressions of shock without exception.

Then, without prior arrangement, they all went back to review the previous content, trying to sort out the earlier plot and foreshadowing.

Their performance indirectly proves one thing—the plot and design of this movie are definitely something that will leave a lasting impression on the audience!
"The Silence of the Lambs" is equally impressive, and even more outstanding in its social metaphors.

Although categorized as a crime thriller, its core is realistic criminal psychology analysis, focusing on the game between FBI agents and serial killers, and exploring social issues such as power, gender, and abnormal psychology.

This kind of "darkness that is close to reality" is, in some ways, more profound than thrillers with supernatural settings.

Through the two villains, Hannibal and Buffalo Bill, the film metaphorically represents the distortion of the power structure (the manipulation by the intellectual elite and the violent resistance of marginalized groups), as well as the struggle of the protagonist Clarice within the patriarchal system.

This critique of social structures goes far beyond the realm of genre films.

No wonder he received special treatment from the Oscars in his previous life!
With Takeshi Onino's explanation, Tooru Amuro and the others also realized the profound theme of the film and were all amazed by it.

Amuro Tooru, in particular, understood this even better and couldn't help but look at Oni Takeshi with an admiring gaze.

Although he had already witnessed the other's talent, this man always managed to amaze him time and time again with his stunning performances.

With these two scripts in front of them, all the executives at Oni no Ikei were relieved.

With such an excellent script, coupled with Takeshi Ono, one of the top directors in all of Asia, what reason could there be for failure?
"Since everyone agrees, let's officially get started!"

Oni Takeshi glanced around and gave the order.

……

The production teams for "The Sixth Sense" and "The Silence of the Lambs" began preparations in full swing.

Meanwhile, Takeshi Ono was struggling with the choice of which role to play.

Cole can be given to Conan, since they both have the same surname, so there's no need to change the name. The setting can be directly set in Japan, which won't have a significant impact on the core of the story.

Given Conan's "precocious" nature despite his young age, his portrayal of this character will be no worse than the original.

So who will play the other key role, the psychiatrist?
Bruce Willis, who played the original Bruce Willis, gave a good performance. Although he had previously starred in action films, he delivered an extremely nuanced performance in this movie.

This allowed him to shed the single label of action star, showcase his acting skills to the public, successfully transform his image, and broaden his acting range.

To be honest, this role does require excellent acting skills, but in the entertainment industry of any country, what is most lacking is actors with excellent acting skills, but what is also the least lacking is this kind of person.

Since the setting has been decided to be Japan, it is natural to choose Japanese actors.

But after considering it over, Ono Takeshi still couldn't make a decision.

In the end, he still chose Kenzaki Osamu.

Now that Kenzaki Osamu has signed with Oni no Eiga, it's better to give this opportunity to one of his own than to give it to an outsider.

Moreover, Kenzaki Osamu's acting skills are also sufficient.

With the main character confirmed, the other roles weren't too difficult to fill. For example, the role of the male lead's wife could be given to Yueye Xue, who was also signed with Guiye Pictures.

Having this real-life couple play husband and wife on the big screen is also a good promotional selling point.

Cole's mother needs to be mature, experienced, and have life experience. As a single mother, she also needs to have a strong temperament.

Originally, Anchi Keiko was quite suitable, but now it's naturally impossible to look for her again.

In the end, Ono Takeshi chose Amashiro Ruri, who was Kogoro Mouri's childhood friend and had always secretly loved him.

Now she is a healing-type female celebrity.

The other person's age and temperament are very suitable for this role.

After being contacted, Ruri Amashiro naturally agreed immediately, without any surprise. As for the little girl ghost seeking Cole's help, Ai Haibara could easily play the role; the cameo of a world-class child star would also be a huge draw.

On the other hand, this could also be used to confuse Mary Akai and her daughter.

They probably never imagined, even if they racked their brains, that the creator of the antidote they had been searching for would be such a famous and high-profile child star.
The main cast for The Sixth Sense was quickly finalized, and next up is The Silence of the Lambs.

First and foremost, the most important character is, of course, Dr. Hannibal Lecter.

Although Takeshi Ono's version is still set in America, he made the old man a Japanese person.

The reason for this is that Takeshi Onino himself wanted to play this role!

As one of the most classic characters in film history, even Takeshi Ono himself couldn't help but be moved by him.

Moreover, such a complex role is extremely challenging and is something every ambitious actor dreams of.

Although Takeshi Ono is not a professional actor, he is no exception, and such a role makes people yearn for him.

With such an opportunity right in front of us, how could we possibly miss it?

So Takeshi Onino decided to challenge the big screen once again, and this time the subject was a classic from his previous life—

Hannibal!
Another indispensable and important character is the female lead, Clarice.

Who should be chosen to play the role?

Oni no Takeshi suddenly had a thought and came up with a candidate...

……

East Capital Television Station, Director's Office.

Dressed in a black business suit, exuding sex appeal, Tomie Kawakami sat in a chair, her fair thighs crossed, admiring the photos in her hand.

The photo clearly shows Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri kissing at the Kiyomizu Stage.

Her elegant lips involuntarily curled up slightly.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Tomie Kawakami put down the photo and picked up her phone.

"How about it?"

Her tone was light and cheerful, and she seemed to be in a pretty good mood.

The news that followed on the phone immediately lifted her spirits.

"Really? That woman was actually summoned by Oni no Takeshi?"

Tomie Kawakami's eyes flickered, and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips.

"Looks like this woman won't have time to keep an eye on me anymore."

After hanging up the phone, Tomie Kawakami narrowed her eyes slightly and muttered to herself, "Rum... perhaps I should speed things up."

She then picked up the photo again, her eyes beaming with a smile.

"I'll send one to Yukiko too, so she can see that her son has grown up..."

……

Onino Pictures.

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door of the president's office.

"Come in."

The majestic voice of Oni no Takeshi came from inside.

The person outside straightened their clothes slightly, then pushed the door open and went inside.

The moment the door opened, a pair of sharp eyes shot over, and their eyes met!

Oni Takeshi raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him, his gaze involuntarily falling on her unique long silver hair.

“Curaçao…”
