As Hollywood's most popular opponents in the past decade, the healthy competition between Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Hugo Lancaster has always been the focus of heated discussion. The entanglement between these three can be traced back to 1992, but it was 1995 that really made the three stand on the same level and have a showdown for more than ten years!

In the fifth week of December 1995, the last issue of "People" Weekly was officially released under the attention of everyone. Every year, the selection of the world's most sexy men, which can cause countless topics, continues this tradition this year. Brad, who performed well in the past year and was in the limelight, defeated a number of competitors and won the title of "People" Weekly for the first time, becoming the world's most sexy men in 1995!

From the emergence of "night visit to vampires", to the emergence of "love-burning years", to the success of the "Seven Deadly Sins", and finally the full recognition of the "Twelve Monkeys". In a year, in four works, Brad took one step at a time. Although he was suppressed by Hugo everywhere, the energy accumulated in the four works exploded, creating Brad's highest title of "American Lover".

Although Hugo's performance has remained strong over the past year, "Puu Novel", "Before Sunrise", "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death Prison Walk" are all excellent works, Hugo has been strong for four years. Compared to his continued strength, Brad, who came from behind, has obviously won more attention.

More importantly, Brad's wild and sexy, unruly and tough image is perfectly combined with his large-screen character. From a performance perspective, this is a monotonous repetition, but for the audience, it undoubtedly deepens their direct impression of Brad. This also made Brad rise to the commanding heights in one fell swoop!

The sexiest men in the world in "People" Weekly are just a title awarded by the magazine and have no practical significance. However, as one of the most influential magazines in North America, the selection of "People" is obviously not limited to appearance or sexy, which is an evaluation of the candidate's influence, popularity, appeal, popularity and other aspects.

Now, "People" Weekly awarded this title to Brad, which is the most direct and important affirmation of Brad's achievements in the past year.

Maybe people are criticizing Brad's acting skills, and Hugo is almost completely defeated by the "Seven Deadly Sins"; maybe people are discussing the same character of Brad's role, and several works are almost in line with each other; maybe people are despising Brad's appeal, and the box office results are simply not comparable to Hugo and Tom...

But the fact is that Brad is the most popular male actor in North America now! There is no doubt! In particular, the "Twelve Monkeys" have achieved outstanding results in one fell swoop with the help of the "Seven Deadly Sins" and have bright money prospects, which also makes Brad even more proud.

This seemingly meaningless title allows Brad to be on par with Tom and Hugo. The three of them are the three youngest actors on the list in the past decade! They are also only three actors among the baby boomers who have received such titles.

Also, no one will forget that the winner of the title of "People" Weekly in the past two years was Hugo! Hugo has become the first person in the history of "People" Weekly and is only one person who won this title twice in a row. This is also a direct witness to Hugo's dominance in Hollywood in the past two years!

Now, Brad has won this title. Rather than saying that Brad ended up blocking Hugo's three consecutive championships, Brad inherited the crown from Hugo and topped the "People" Weekly.

This time, Brad truly defeated Hugo, which was also his long-lost victory in the competition with Hugo! Not only is this of great significance to Brad, but many media in North America also shouted "change of dynasty."

The change of dynasty here does not refer to Brad replacing Hugo, but to the end of the dynasty of "Hugo and Tom's strong dialogue", and the era of "Hugo, Tom, and Brad's three-legged stalemate" officially began. This is the fundamental reason why the "Twelve Monkeys" have an important position in entertainment history. After this work, people have truly ushered in a dynasty with fierce competition from three top superstars and gathered in excellent works.

Thanks to Brad's strong influence on "People" Weekly, the box office of the "Twelve Monkeys" soared by 60% this week, directly snatching $19.8 million in the North American market. This not only created the best data since the movie was released, but also brought the three-week cumulative box office of the work through the doorstep of 30 million US dollars and directly settled at 35 million US dollars. This is undoubtedly a huge success for a cult commercial film with an investment of 29 million.

The strength of the "Twelve Monkeys" has also made major media generally optimistic about the prospects of this movie. Brad even swept away the haze of good results and low emotions after the "Seven Deadly Sins". He frequently appeared in major programs and accepted various interviews. As the new sexy man in the world, Brad seemed to enjoy this title very much, and his girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow has also become the most jealous woman in the United States. The couple also replaced Hugo and Cameron, who acted in a low-key manner, and became the number one focus after dinner.

In the fifth week of December, although the "Twelve Monkeys" burst out today's energy, it eventually lost to "Toy Story". This film history's first three-dimensional computer animation work almost won the love of the entire North America. The box office soared by 100% this week. With a box office data of 20.3 million US dollars, it returned to the championship position of the North American weekend box office rankings, and the cumulative box office also exceeded 150 million US dollars, officially heading towards 200 million US dollars, which really stole a lot of the limelight.

After "Toy Story" and "Twelve Monkeys", it is the "Brave Game" with box office recovery. There are six works with a box office of over 10 million this week, which shows the prosperity and excitement of the entire North American market.

After this battle, there is no doubt that the success of the "Twelve Monkeys" was successful. Brad finally rose to truly rise, completing the three-legged territory, and the entire Hollywood landscape changed its dynasty.

After that, the "Twelve Monkeys" benefited from their good reputation and continued momentum. Although they cannot be compared with the horrifying momentum of the "Seven Deadly Sins", their outstanding performance still makes it a shiny and shiny dark horse!

In January 1996, the "Twelve Monkeys" won a weekend box office of tens of millions per week and successfully topped the North American weekend box office rankings. Then, it won a weekend box office of three and six millions per week. Although the decline exceeded 40%, not all works can be compared with the "Seven Deadly Sins" performance. For a thrilling and suspense science fiction movie, the performance of the "Twelve Monkeys" has far exceeded expectations.

Thanks to his outstanding performance in January, many media exclaimed, is the box office of the "Twelve Monkeys" going to exceed 100 million? If this is true, this work undoubtedly created a miracle of "Seven Deadly Sins", which will also become Brad's third work in North America with a box office of over 100 million yuan. Of course, the box office of the "Seven Deadly Sins" is clearly approaching 200 million yuan, but Brad left a limited impression on people.

Unfortunately, this speculation lasted less than two weeks before it was shattered.

Like the "Seven Deadly Sins", the battery life still seems weak in the later stage, especially the "Twelve Monkeys" cannot be compared with the "Seven Deadly Sins". After six weeks of release, the downward momentum was out of control, with a weekly decline of more than 50%, which made the movie hit the threshold of $100 million in an instant. The hope of disappearing like a bubble.

Even so, the performance of "Twelve Monkeys" is still very impressive. With a cumulative release of 12 weeks, North America finally achieved a cumulative box office of 89 million US dollars, which is still quite far from 100 million US dollars. But even so, "Twelve Monkeys" became Brad's third highest-grossing work in his personal box office, second only to the "Seven Deadly Sins" and the "Night Visit to Vampire" with a box office of barely over 100 million US dollars.

This was the case with the "Love Years" in the past. The box office in North America was only more than 60 million, but the overseas box office performance was particularly outstanding. This time, the same is true for the "Twelve Monkeys". Bruce had a global appeal after "Die Hard", and Brad is now a sexy idol known to the world. The potential of movies in the overseas market is undoubtedly worth looking forward to.

Although people have raised their expectations, the overseas performance of the "Twelve Monkeys" in the end still made everyone applaud. Fifty-one overseas countries and regions won a box office of 120 million US dollars for this work, which also made the global box office of the "Twelve Monkeys" reach 209 million US dollars. Such excellent results also made Brad's smile brighter in interviews on major programs.

According to feedback from the inside of the paparazzi, Brad was in a good mood recently. Even if he secretly took a secret photo of him dating Gwyneth, he would communicate with the paparazzi with a smile.

Investing 29 million yuan and eventually recovering 209 million US dollars worldwide, such a achievement was unpredictable even if Universal Pictures had high expectations for the "Twelve Monkeys". Such low investment and high returns have happened countless times in Hugo, and people have long been accustomed to it, but it was the real first time in Brad except for the "Seven Deadly Sins".

Before the "Twelve Monkeys" were offline, there were rumors in the circle that under the operation of Martin Baum, Brad's pay had increased to $10 million, and some production companies also had rumors that even 15 million would be fine. You should know that during the "Seven Deadly Sins", Brad's pay as the leading actor was only $4 million, even if the box office exceeded the expected line, it would be only $5 million.

The miracle created by "Twelve Monkeys" has just begun.
