Saw X director Kevin Greutert teases the movie’s strategy to John Kramer. Morfydd Clark and Matt Smith get all spooky about bushes in supernatural people horror Starve Acre. Plus, behind the scenes on the return of The Nun. To me, my spoilers!
Charlie’s Angels 3
During a latest interview with Entertainment Weekly, McG mentioned the risk of directing a 3rd Charlie’s Angels film starring Lucy Liu, Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz.
It would take a protracted dialogue with these three great performers who I like. I used to be very joyful to see Elizabeth Banks take the helm and do what she did, which was enjoyable. There at all times appears to be chatter about that. I’m very joyful to debate it with Drew and Cameron and Lucy, however at the identical time, I’m very joyful to cross the torch. I imply, I really like the Tim Burton Batman films, I really like the new Batman films. It’s simply kind of like there generally is a keeper of the flame and you may cross the torch.
Who is aware of? Maybe we’ve obtained one left in us that tells a really compelling story if the alternative presents itself. I really like the three of them a lot. They put me on the map. They seemed out for me after I was a first-time filmmaker. I used to be very practically fired off that movie on many, many events, and Drew stood up for me and I’m eternally indebted to her. And clearly, these are three performers the place God broke the mould. They don’t make ‘em like that. I mean, those are three special ones.
Saw X
During a separate recent interview with Empire, director Kevin Greutert promised Saw X will showcase John Kramer as a “smart engineer” who could appeal “to people beyond gore freaks.”
Kramer is the centre of the story. They tried to make the last Saw without Tobin [Bell] and to me, that was a pretty gutsy move.
This one has pulled back to a somewhat more realistic level. Not maybe Saw I-level simplicity, but close. The more that the audience can get the sense that a smart engineer – which he is – could figure out what to do with these parts and make it work, the better. [Saw X] is an emotional journey that you go on with John Kramer, and less a slaughterhouse that you experience from the point of view of the victims. Obviously there will be people that can’t deal with it, however I believe it has a very good likelihood of interesting to individuals past gore freaks.
That stated, Coming Soon confirms Saw X has been rated “R” for “sequences of grisly bloody violence and torture, language, and some drug use.”
The Creator
In dialog with /Film, Gareth Edwards revealed the visible design of The Creator was impressed by the easy concept, “what if the Sony Walkman won the tech war instead of the Apple Mac?”
The method we tried to shortly describe the design aesthetic of the film is that it’s just a little bit retro-futuristic. So it was like, think about the Apple Mac hadn’t gained the tech struggle, and the Sony Walkman had. So every part has this kind of ‘90s, ‘80s kind of Walkman, Nintendo [vibe]. We looked at all the product design from that era, and kind of riffed off little pieces and tried to put it on the robots.
And the robots … we did a whole pass at one point where we took insects, and we took insect heads and tried to make it as if that insect had been made by Sony, and changed it into product design. Whether it was a praying mantis or things like [that]. And then equally, we took products and tried to turn them into organic-looking heads. So we took things like film projectors and vacuum cleaners and things like this and just messed around. And usually took both of those things and put them together and deleted pieces and just kind of kept experimenting. It was kind of like evolution in real life. It’s like DNA getting merged along with different DNA and attempting to create one thing higher than the earlier factor.
Starve Acre
Bloody-Disgusting has our first seems at Morfydd Clark and Matt Smith in Starve Acre, a people horror film set in 1970’s England following Richard and Juliette, a pair “whose seemingly idyllic rural English family life is thrown into turmoil when their son Ewan starts acting out of character. At Starve Acre, their remote family home, archaeologist Richard buries himself in exploring a folkloric myth that the ancient oak tree on their land is imbued with phenomenal powers, while Juliette turns to the local community to find some kind of peace.”
