Paul, I was so curious about, you know,
having Jason Blum as a producer on this.
Was there ever a conversation to kind of lean
into horror within this because he's a producer?
No, no. I mean, Jason and I have made, we made Lost Bus together.
Thank you.
No, we didn't have a conversation about horror.
He just, you know, he's a great producer
because he just encouraged us to make
the film we wanted to make. And, you know,
What we wanted to make was a, you know,
a big historical epic with a lot of heart and soul and,
you know, a movie a bit like Gladiator or Braveheart,
those are the kind of movies,
I loved those movies and, you know,
you need to go back in time but also
it's really quite contemporary and, you know,
thanks to these guys you have characters that
you want to follow whose destinies you really care about
and, you know, you have
An intimate story, a love story in the middle of it and you know
a central character who goes on a journey so you know you have to try
and fashion a big piece of cinema if people are going to come out
they've got to feel like they've had an entertainment for two hours.
