Une suite de Valhalla Rising à Tokyo?

He revealed that project was a re-teaming with “Valhalla Rising” star Mads Mikkelsen, saying they had, “talked about revisiting the [One-Eye] character from ‘Valhalla Rising’ again to kind of complete… because there’s a similarity between ‘Valhalla Rising,’ ‘Drive’ and ‘Only God Forgives.’ But in a way I had this idea of Mads Mikklesen to go back to the origins of this character. But make the movie in Tokyo.”

When asked how this could be a sequel, Refn cryptically said, “Tokyo is a world onto itself.” This didn’t seem to clear up exactly how One Eye could emerge from the early Viking era to modern day Tokyo, so when pressed, Refn teased that the film was, “About the future…”

J'avais pas trop fait le suivi sur ce projet donc récapitulons. Il ne s'agit pas d'une suite de Valhalla Rising.

Voici ce que Refn disait en octobre 2013 :

One of them is a picture set in Japan, one that had been reported as a “Valhalla Rising” prequel (of sorts), something he quickly corrected as a bit of an off-the-cuff comparison that perhaps took on a bit more weight and importance than he intended. Even the mooted title “The Avenging Silence” seemed tentative at best when we asked, and while Refn was cautious about saying too much, he did confirm a Tokyo-set movie was brewing, and he shared why that city intrigued him as a cinematic backdrop.

“A bit like Bangkok, it’s like a world within a world. It’s like traveling to an alien landscape, it’s like going to the Scottish mountains, or Los Angeles at night,” Refn said. “I like to go to places that feel like completely out of my comfort zone. Living in Copenhagen, a very mundane life, it’s like traveling to outer space.”

Le comparaison avec Valhalla Rising se précise en juin 2015 :

"It’s basically a character that appears in my other movies that will now appear again. Having done ‘The Neon Demon,’ which was predominantly women protagonists, the character that Mads [Mikkelsen] plays in ‘Valhalla Rising,’ Ryan [Gosling] plays him in ‘Drive‘ or Vithaya [Pansringarm] in ‘Only God Forgives,’ I want to make a new movie with that character," he explained to Collider.

Currently writing the script for the film, Refn also reveals what kind of movie it might be. "I would love to do like a spy movie, something like that," he teased.

La bonne figure du vigilante silencieux quoi. Mais dans un film d'espionnage. Bandant.

En janvier dernier, on apprenait :

Deadline reports that writers Neal Purvis and Robert Wade — James Bond franchise veterans who have put their pen to six 007 movies including "Casino Royale," "Quantum Of Solace," "Skyfall," and "Spectre" — are working with Refn on a project that "will have an Asian setting with both thriller and action elements."

Le mec est carrément allé chercher les scénaristes des derniers Bond. Folie.
Et en février, il précisait son ambition :

"I’ve had this idea to do a spy movie for a number of years and brought Robert and Neal in when we were working on ‘Barbarella.’ We have a really groovy relationship and have been working under secrecy — like real spy stuff. I was in Japan recently to figure out how practically I would make the film. I thought it would be fun to do a big extravagant action film; maybe a studio thing with a lot of stuff happening," the director said. "I’m by no means opposed to doing a studio movie, I think it could be great fun. Sometimes you can invent it yourself and find a way to make it work within the system. But to work in that system takes a certain kind of caliber and approach and I’m very interested in doing it in South East Asia because it’s foreign in terms of being a westerner. It would be funky to do it in Japan."

Et aujourd'hui :

Refn confirms that he was approached to direct “Spectre” before Sam Mendes agreed to return. The director doesn’t talk much about it, but he does have his own spy movie of sorts on the way: “The Avenging Silence.” Refn confirmed that ‘Silence’ was his version of a Bond movie. But most importantly, at least on this movie, he’ll get to see his vision through to the end.

“I just know this way I can do whatever I want, and that outweighs any money anyone can give me,” he said.

J'espère que ce sera pas juste un truc récréatif et vaguement convaincant comme le Haywire de Soderbergh...parce que Refn qui fait son Bond, ça a de quoi faire bander.

NWR tease les influences du film :



And the synopsis of the book, which is the final part of a surrealist trilogy, pretty much says it all about how it might inform Refn’s movie:

The Soft Machine introduced us to the conditions of a universe where endemic lusts of the mind and body pray upon men, hook them, and turn them into beasts. Nova Express takes William S. Burroughs’ nightmarish futuristic tale one step further. The diabolical Nova Criminals — Sammy the Butcher, Green Tony, Iron Claws, the Brown Artist, Jacky Blue Note, and Izzy the Push, to name only a few — have gained control and plan on wreaking untold destruction. It’s up to Inspector Lee of the Nova Police to attack and dismantle the word and imagery machine of these ”control addicts” before it’s too late.

Ça donne envie de lire le livre.

Syno court :
A former European spy accepts a confidential mission from a Japanese businessman exiled to France to take down the head of the most treacherous Yakuza boss in Japan.

Syno long :
The spy was one of the leading spies in Europe. An injury inflicted to his vocal cords during a failed mission six years ago left him mute, forcing him to leave his profession. Now, six years later, he is sought out and put on confidential assignment by a former Yakuza, now a retired Japanese businessman in exile in France, to track down and kill the head of the most dangerous Yakuza family in Japan.

Afraid of flying, our spy anonymously boards a cargo ship headed for Tokyo. An onboard explosion sinks the ship and our spy finds himself washed ashore on a life raft in southern Japan. As a mute, our spy must silently journey through Japan seeking 4 clues – symbolizing conquest, war, famine, and death – which will guide him to the unknown location of the Yakuza boss. Meanwhile, the Yakuza boss, known for his 2004 mass slaughter of Yakuza members who had turned against him, is believed to be plotting to reenter the Japanese underworld after living in his own surreptitious world in the mountains, void of all technology. This way of life becomes an obsession for the Yakuza boss. Rumors spread that he had committed suicide years ago but escaped prisoners from his hidden camp told stories of his plan for a comeback. Now rival Yakuza families suspect he is forming a master plan to return, a plan that unburies the most infamous story of Yakuza betrayal.

Our spy finds himself on an existential journey through Japan in search of pieces to the puzzle that will lead him to a confrontation with the ultimate Yakuza boss in a terrifying conclusion.

Ça va tuer.

Grave.

J'en parlais hier avec un pote, et ça rapelle pas mal le bouquin de Graham K. Chesterton "The Man Who Was Thursday", dans le trip espionnage à base de symbolique, etc.

Et ça m'a donné envie de relire "The Secret Agent" de Conrad.

Grosse attente pour moi aussi.
Curieux de voir qui sera casté (si c'est pas Gosling) (et si c'est pas Mikkelsen).
