The cast of Indiana Jones Legend 2 Magic Palace

When george lucas first found Steven Allan Spielberg to direct raiders of the lost ark, he claimed that he had conceived three stories. As a result, Lucas doesn't have three stories at all, but he has to go all out and start from the beginning in the sequel.

Lucas didn't want the Nazis to continue to appear, so he took this movie as a prequel to raiders of the lost ark. Lawrence kasdan, the screenwriter of raiders of the lost ark, refused to write a script for the film. After learning that Kasdan was hopeless, Lucas invited willard huyck, a screenwriter who knew Indian culture, to write with gloria katz. The three later drew a lot of creative inspiration from 1939 The Sound of Eggplant Beating in an Ancient Temple.

At the beginning of 1982, Spielberg, Lucas and two screenwriters discussed it for four days. Lucas originally intended to make a young princess a partner of Jones, but the other three people were very disgusted with his idea. In May of the same year, Lucas gave Hejk and Katz a 20-page shooting plan, including scenes of fighting in Shanghai, escaping from the plane and chasing the harvester deleted from the first episode. The shooting budget of "Magic Raiders" is $2,865,438+7,000, 8 million more than that of "raiders of the lost ark". The film started shooting in Kandy on April 1983, and the crew returned to Elstree Studio in Hertfordshire, England on May 5 to continue shooting. 80% of the shots in the film were shot in the studio, and a large number of sets built by the crew occupied 8 of the 9 studios in Elstree Studio. Among them, the biggest is the scene of insect flooding.

In order to sing and dance in the film, Kate Capuchiot, who plays Willie, studied standard Mandarin and tap dancing seriously. However, during the official filming, Capshaw could not perform because her clothes were too tight, and her red dress was swallowed by an elephant. Norman reynolds, the artistic director of raiders of the lost ark, will be involved in the filming of Star Wars Episode VI: Revenge of the Samurai, so the producer invited his mentor Elliot Scott to do it for him. In order to build the cable bridge in the film, the crew also turned to the engineer who built the dam near the studio.

All the scenes about the cable bridge were shot on three continents. Among them, the real cable bridge was built in Sri Lanka, and the scene of Jones cutting off the cable bridge was also filmed locally; The cable bridge is hung on the cliff, and the scene of people hanging on the bridge was shot in the studio of Elstree Studios in London. The crocodile scene at the end of the suspension bridge was filmed in Florida.

During the filming, Ford accidentally caused lumbar disc herniation due to riding an elephant. On June 2 1, seriously ill Ford had to fly to Santiniera Hospital for rehabilitation treatment, and Lucas had to suspend filming.

Unable to shoot in Chinese mainland, the crew chose to shoot the Shanghai scene in Macau. During this period, photographer douglas slocombe had a high fever and could not work, so the filming had to be interrupted for another two weeks. Nevertheless, after Spielberg's unremitting efforts, the film was completed on schedule within the established budget.
