關(guān)于《指環(huán)王》電視劇 你可能想知道的

亞馬遜影業(yè)計(jì)劃耗資10億美元打造《指環(huán)王》電視劇，雖然還沒(méi)有開(kāi)拍，但是已經(jīng)有很多網(wǎng)友都表示對(duì)這部電視劇相當(dāng)期待。劇版《指環(huán)王》還會(huì)由原版電影導(dǎo)演來(lái)執(zhí)導(dǎo)嗎?主角是誰(shuí)?什么時(shí)候開(kāi)拍?一共拍幾季?將有哪些情節(jié)?下文為你揭曉答案。

When Peter Jackson first started planning The Lord Of The Rings films back in 1995, he couldn’t have imagined how it would dominate his life. And now, six movies, 21 Oscars and 23 years later, we’re heading back to Middle Earth for a brand new Lord of the Rings TV series.

1995年，當(dāng)彼得·杰克遜最初開(kāi)始策劃《指環(huán)王》系列電影的拍攝時(shí)，他想象不到這部電影將會(huì)主宰他的人生。23年過(guò)去了，在他拍攝了6部電影、摘得了21個(gè)奧斯卡獎(jiǎng)杯后，如今觀眾又將和中土重逢，看到全新的《指環(huán)王》電視劇。

Amazon Studios are the lucky lot who’ve been tasked with recreating J.R.R. Tolkien’s literary magic for the small screen, with the company signing a reported $250m rights contract in November 2017 with the author’s estate, publisher HarperCollins and New Line Cinema to produce a multi-season show for television.

亞馬遜影業(yè)有幸將能把J·R·R·托爾金的這部文學(xué)巨著改編成電視劇，該公司于2017年11月和托爾金家族基金會(huì)、哈珀柯林斯出版社和新線電影公司簽下了2.5億美元(合16億元人民幣)的版權(quán)合同，將制作一部長(zhǎng)達(dá)數(shù)季的電視劇。

電視劇《指環(huán)王》即將開(kāi)拍，來(lái)看看觀眾最關(guān)心的幾個(gè)問(wèn)題：

《指環(huán)王》電視劇什么時(shí)候開(kāi)播?

While there’s been no official word yet on an expected release date, Amazon are required by the aforementioned $250m deal to begin production on the show within two years – so that means that the show will be on the way by November 2019 at least.

目前關(guān)于開(kāi)播日期還沒(méi)有官方消息，不過(guò)，按照這個(gè)2.5億美元的合同，亞馬遜要在兩年內(nèi)開(kāi)始制作這部電視劇，這意味著電視劇會(huì)在2019年11月前開(kāi)拍。

電視劇制片方是誰(shuí)?

Amazon, Netflix and HBO had all been in talks for acquiring the rights, but in the end only one triumphed.

亞馬遜、奈飛和HBO都曾為獲得制片權(quán)而洽談過(guò)，但最終只有一個(gè)公司勝出。

Amazon Studios will produce the series in co-operation with the Tolkien Estate and Trust, book publishers HarperCollins, and New Line Cinema (a division of Warner Bros., which made the original Oscar-winning movies with Peter Jackson). The studios will allocate a reported $1bn budget for the show – the biggest in television history.

亞馬遜影業(yè)將和托爾金家族基金會(huì)、哈珀柯林斯出版社、新線電影公司(華納兄弟公司的子公司，曾和彼得·杰克遜合作拍攝過(guò)獲得奧斯卡獎(jiǎng)的原版《指環(huán)王》電影)合作拍攝這部電視劇。據(jù)稱，亞馬遜影業(yè)將拿出10億美元(約合64億元人民幣)的預(yù)算來(lái)拍攝《指環(huán)王》電視劇——這是電視劇有史以來(lái)金額最高的預(yù)算。

It’s interesting that Tolkien’s estate will be so closely involved with production. In recent years, they were partly responsible for delaying Jackson’s initial idea for a set of Hobbit films directed by Guillermo Del Toro. They eventually settled the matter and the critically-reviled trilogy went ahead – but without Del Toro, who departed the project in 2010.

有意思的是，托爾金家族基金會(huì)將如此密切地參與電影拍攝。幾年前，彼得·杰克遜最初提出由吉爾莫·德?tīng)?middot;托羅來(lái)導(dǎo)演《霍比特人》系列電影，但這一計(jì)劃被拖延，部分阻力就來(lái)自托爾金家族基金會(huì)。最終他們解決了這一問(wèn)題，備受批評(píng)的《霍比特人》三部曲開(kāi)拍了，但是導(dǎo)演不是吉爾莫·德?tīng)?middot;托羅，他于2010年退出了這個(gè)項(xiàng)目。

But, just as An Unexpected Journey hit cinemas in 2012, the Tolkien estate sued Warner Bros., citing copyright infringement and breach of contract over video games and other digital merchandising. The $80m law suit was settled in July, but the problems left a bad taste in the mouths of everyone involved. Why would they go back into business with New Line so quickly?

然而，就在《霍比特人：意外之旅》2012年上映時(shí)，托爾金家族基金會(huì)起訴華納兄弟公司在電子游戲和其他電子商品方面侵犯版權(quán)和違反合同。這樁8000萬(wàn)美元(約合5.1億元人民幣)的訴訟于當(dāng)年7月份結(jié)案，但是給涉案的每個(gè)人都留下了很惡心的感覺(jué)。為什么托爾金家族基金會(huì)這么快又要和新線電影公司再度合作呢?

彼得·杰克遜會(huì)參與電視劇拍攝嗎?

Peter Jackson has confirmed that he is not involved in the series. Speaking to French publication Allocine, he killed the rumors that he would be involved saying: “I’m not involved at all in the ‘Lord of the Rings’ series...I understand how my name could come up, but there is nothing happening with me on this project.”

彼得·杰克遜已證實(shí)，他將不參與電視劇的拍攝。他在接受法國(guó)網(wǎng)站Allocine采訪時(shí)否認(rèn)了自己將參與拍攝的傳聞：“我完全不會(huì)參與《指環(huán)王》電視劇的拍攝……我理解我的名字為什么會(huì)在報(bào)道中出現(xiàn)，但我和這個(gè)項(xiàng)目沒(méi)有關(guān)系。”

《指環(huán)王》電視劇會(huì)拍多少季?

Amazon has committed to producing five seasons of a Lord of the Rings TV series as part of its $250 million rights deal.

根據(jù)2.5億美元的這份合同，亞馬遜計(jì)劃拍攝五季《指環(huán)王》電視劇。

演員陣容都有誰(shuí)?

We’re not at that stage yet. But Ian McKellen, who played Gandalf in the original trilogy, has expressed interest in reprising his role. Asked by Graham Norton on his BBC radio show if it was going to be annoying to have another pointy-hatted wizard around, McKellen replied: “What do you mean, another Gandalf?”

目前還未進(jìn)行到選角的階段。不過(guò)在原版《指環(huán)王》電影三部曲中扮演甘道夫的伊恩·麥克萊恩有興趣重新演繹他的老角色。在BBC節(jié)目格拉漢姆諾頓秀上，他被諾頓問(wèn)及如果冒出了另一個(gè)尖帽子巫師會(huì)不會(huì)感到惱火，麥克萊恩回答說(shuō)：“你的意思是，另一個(gè)甘道夫嗎?”

He added: “I haven’t said yes because I haven’t been asked. But are you suggesting that someone else is going to play it? Gandalf is over 7000 years old, so I’m not too old.”

他說(shuō)：“我還沒(méi)有收到片方邀請(qǐng)，所以我還沒(méi)有同意。但你指的是其他人要扮演甘道夫嗎?甘道夫7000多歲了，所以我還不算太老。”

Meanwhile, actor John Rhys Davies, who played feisty dwarf Gimli, has criticised Amazon for making a series so soon after Jackson’s original.

與此同時(shí)，扮演矮人吉姆利的演員約翰·里斯·戴維斯批評(píng)亞馬遜影業(yè)，稱杰克遜的原版電影拍完沒(méi)多久就要拍攝電視劇。

“It’s not about doing it better, it’s about making more money, that’s all,” Rhys-Davies told Den of Geek. “If they think they can make more money, then they will.”

里斯·戴維斯告訴Den of Geek網(wǎng)站說(shuō)：“這無(wú)關(guān)乎是否拍出更好的作品，而是為了賺更多錢(qián)，僅此而已。如果他們認(rèn)為可以賺更多錢(qián)，那么就賺吧。”

Andy Serkis, who played Gollum in the movies, has said he doesn’t expect to be cast in the upcoming TV version. He told ScreenCrush: “It sounds incredible, but I don’t see myself being any part of it.”

在電影中扮演咕嚕姆的安迪·瑟金斯說(shuō)，他應(yīng)該不會(huì)在電視劇中扮演角色。他告訴ScreenCrush網(wǎng)站說(shuō)：“聽(tīng)上去挺棒的，不過(guò)我應(yīng)該不會(huì)在劇中扮演任何角色。”

“I think it’s a completely fresh, new approach to it all, so I don’t think I’d imagine myself to be anywhere near it really,” he added.

他說(shuō)：“我認(rèn)為這是全新的一次改編，我覺(jué)得自己應(yīng)該和這個(gè)新項(xiàng)目完全不沾邊。”

However, Serkis’ co-star Sean Astin was more positive about the prospect of reprising his role as Samwise Gamgee.

不過(guò)，和瑟金斯一同拍攝電影的肖恩·奧斯汀對(duì)自己重新扮演山姆懷斯·甘姆齊(山姆)更有信心。

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, he said: “I’ve been saying for 15 years...maybe like 12 years after Lord of the Rings came out, that it would get remade. And people always said, ‘Oh no, it’ll never get remade! It’s a classic! They could never top it!’ And I’m like, ‘No, it’ll get remade. It’s a massive story! The characters are so beloved.”

在接受《娛樂(lè)周刊》采訪時(shí)，奧斯汀說(shuō)道：“自從《指環(huán)王》電影拍出來(lái)后，15年了……也許是12年了，我總是說(shuō)《指環(huán)王》還會(huì)翻拍的。而人們總是說(shuō)：‘不，永遠(yuǎn)不可能翻拍的!這是經(jīng)典!永遠(yuǎn)無(wú)法超越!’而我說(shuō)：‘不，它會(huì)被翻拍。這是個(gè)偉大的故事!里面的角色太受人喜愛(ài)了。’”

電視劇會(huì)有哪些情節(jié)?

The script hasn’t even been assigned yet, but there’s several avenues the writers could go down. We know the series will be a prequel to The Lord Of The Rings films, so that means anything prior to Bilbo handing over the ring to Frodo is fair game. That leaves them with a mere few thousand years of folklore to work with...

劇本還沒(méi)有分派給編劇，不過(guò)可能會(huì)從幾條思路著手。我們知道電視劇將是電影的前傳，這意味著任何發(fā)生在比爾博將魔戒交給佛羅多之前的故事都是可能的。也就幾千年罷了……

TheOneRing is reporting that the opening season of the show is going to be focused on a young Aragorn. The character was already 87-years-old by the time The Fellowship Of The Ring began, so there’s a huge chunk of his childhood that could be utilised.

據(jù)TheOneRing網(wǎng)站報(bào)道，《指環(huán)王》電視劇的第一季將主要講述年輕的阿拉貢的故事。在電影《指環(huán)王》第一部開(kāi)始時(shí)，阿拉貢已經(jīng)87歲了，所以關(guān)于他的少年時(shí)期還有很多故事可以講。

[BREAKING] We have confirmed from multiple sources that @AmazonStudios new billion-dollar #LOTR series will open its first season centered on a young Aragorn.

重磅消息!我們已經(jīng)從多個(gè)來(lái)源證實(shí)，@亞馬遜影業(yè)耗資10億的《指環(huán)王》電視劇的第一季將主要講述年輕的阿拉貢的故事。

Astin theorised about what might be included in the future series’ plot: “The Mines of Moria are referred to a lot in Lord of the Rings. And I guess in The Hobbit trilogy, you spent a little bit of time with them, but the culture of the dwarves in the mines... I would love to see like five hours of that.”

肖恩·奧斯汀關(guān)于這部電視劇情節(jié)走向的理論是：“《指環(huán)王》原著中經(jīng)常提到摩瑞亞礦坑。在《霍比特人》三部曲中沒(méi)有多少關(guān)于摩瑞亞礦坑的情節(jié)，但是矮人的礦坑文化……這方面的內(nèi)容我愿意看上五個(gè)小時(shí)。”
