James Franco! Emma Stone!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And our lead actor—Xu Can!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xu Can walked toward the stage, the whole place boiled over again, chanting in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spider-Man! Spider-Man! Spider-Man!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can waved with a handsome smile, which was met with even louder cheers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would question him playing Spider-Man now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the fans' hearts, no one was more suitable than him! No one else would do!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience was too crazy, so much so that the host shouted several times and they didn't listen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no other way; the microphone had to be taken by Xu Can, who was currently the most popular.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guys, let’s sit down first. If you haven't had enough, you can buy tickets and watch it again at the midnight screening later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can stood on the stage as calmly as a talk show master, chatting with the audience:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you haven't shouted enough, you can go back and shoot a short video and post it online; I’ll click on each one to watch. Of course, only for beautiful women; men, don't shoot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seriously, shouting loudly is bad for your throat; I only have two throat lozenges on me, one for me and one for Emma, none for you guys.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the minds of North Americans, Asian international students or Asian residents were usually reticent or introverted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can’s few humorous and witty complaints made the audience laugh, and they were no longer so manic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The host secretly gave Xu Can a thumbs up; the situation was controlled by him so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, our creative team is on stage; next, let the director say a few words, and then it’s the Q&A session.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Marc Webb began to talk about the film’s creative process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At first, we looked for Spider-Man for a long time, auditioning many actors, such as Josh Hartnett, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jude Law...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were all famous Hollywood handsome male stars, including \"Leo,\" who swept the world with *Titanic*.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forgot, there’s also James Franco sitting next to me... sorry, James, it’s nothing personal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The director made a joke with Franco.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Franco didn't understand at first, but later, seeing Xu Can’s performance, he had long since let it go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s okay, playing the little Green Goblin is pretty good too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the director continued to talk about the casting of Spider-Man:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As everyone knows, we held a Spider-Man open audition, not limited to famous actors or ordinary people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Later, while visiting a coffee shop, I discovered Xu; he looked ordinary, but if you looked closely, he was anything but ordinary.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He came to audition, and my intuition told me he was simply the most suitable actor. Now everyone can see it for themselves; I won the bet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marc Webb’s talk drew warm applause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The casting and creative concept of Spider-Man gave everyone a deeper understanding of the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also added that Xu Can was a co-writer, and many concepts in the film were proposed by Xu Can.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such as the villain setup, the film’s hip-hop trend style, and the choice of the heroine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not MJ, but Gwen Stacy, who was more youthful in high school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>MJ was the heroine Peter met after he graduated and started working, and his future wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That belonged to another chapter, perhaps appearing in the sequel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Xu Can, Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, and others talked about interesting anecdotes during the filming,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the atmosphere in the entire theater was quite joyful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brothers, do you know? On set, I didn't even need to direct the scenes between these two!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marc Webb laughed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The interaction between the male and female leads was completely their own free play; I didn't even give them the lines.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you guys ship them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the audience at the scene said in unison:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So sweet! Too sweet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was even a grumpy guy who stood up and shouted: \"Hurry up and get married! Just marry him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how socially adept Stone was, she couldn't help but blush and lower her head to smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, no more jokes; next, it’s the Q&A session everyone cares about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marc Webb announced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The many media representatives present suddenly got excited, like monkeys begging for food, raising their hands one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The lady over there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello! I am a reporter for the *Los Santos Times*; the film’s effect is quite shocking, and it should achieve good results.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May I ask if there are any plans to shoot a sequel? What is the plan?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blonde reporter was one of their own, taking the lead in asking some safer questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The producer blurted out:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, regardless of the box office, we will shoot a sequel. The preliminary plan is a trilogy, and we have already started the pre-production stage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the producer could finish, cheers erupted at the scene again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first *Spider-Man* was so explosive that not shooting a sequel would be unjustifiable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fans couldn't wait to see the second one right now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it was another media outlet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am an NBC reporter; before the release, Emma bet with a critic that the box office would exceed 500 million USD. Currently, *Pirates of the Caribbean 2* has a box office of 423 million, temporarily the box office champion of the year; may I ask if you still have the confidence to surpass them now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"500 million, I was indeed impulsive at the time. *Pirates of the Caribbean 2* is indeed an excellent movie, and its strength is very strong...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emma Stone paused, then smiled:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My prediction at the time was a bit conservative; I should have estimated higher! Sorry, Johnny Depp, I’m afraid our box office is going to surpass yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter’s question had a bit of a suspicion of inciting conflict,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but Stone didn't fear the battle at all; she was simply full of confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience at the scene was also quite confident, and applause was constant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone couldn't be described as satisfied with this Spider-Man; it was simply far beyond expectations!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Pirates of the Caribbean 2* is good, but what can it compare to Spider-Man with?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several reporters and critics asked questions one after another, and the creative team answered them one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was full of confidence, their words were much more relaxed, and there was constant laughter at the scene, with a good atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Time is running out, we have one last question left... over there, the lady in the black clothes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am a reporter for the *New York Times*; first of all, congratulations on the film’s success. I noticed that many combat scenes in the film are full of imagination, and the incredible action design is quite difficult.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thin female reporter intended to be a bit tough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You previously promoted that the lead actor Xu Can did not use a stunt double throughout, and all the battles were completed by himself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not nitpicking, but this is simply too unbelievable. I believe any famous actor couldn't do those high-difficulty moves; only professional stuntmen with years of training could do it. It even had to be completed with a lot of special effects...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just want to hear the truth; do you admit to using a stunt double? Did you use too many special effects, and is there any suspicion of false advertising?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The *New York Times* reporter’s question was indeed quite aggressive, and some of the audience had the same doubts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he really not use a stunt double, and was it really shot in real life? Impossible, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter thought this would stump the creators and make them admit to false advertising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, the creative team just looked at each other and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can stood out: \"Let me answer this personally.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a charming smile, he walked to the open space calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience was stunned, not knowing what he was going to do next!\u003C\u002Fp>",1381,"2026-06-17T04:37:49.098Z","2026-06-17T04:40:43.045Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","5ab2b9dd41db422b1c91cd645a3cedc3c62012cb4a47e431a78b4e925e304992","entertainment-starting-as-spider-man-i-kiss-tayl-chapter-24","entertainment-starting-as-spider-man-i-kiss-tayl-chapter-22",319,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fentertainment-starting-as-spider-man-i-kiss-tayl-cover.jpg"]
