We spoke w/ patrickwilson73 about Moonfall, why people love end of the world movies, and ‘Aquaman 2's new vfx techniques.
With director Roland Emmerich’s Moonfall now playing in theaters, I got to speak with Patrick Wilson about making the movie. During the fun interview, Wilson talked about why Barry Munday is the first thing you should watch if you’ve never seen his work, what it’s really like working with Emmerich on set, why people love watching end of the world movies and TV shows, and his excitement at being involved in a sci-fi movie.
COLLIDER: If someone has actually never seen anything that you've done before, what is the first thing you want them watching and why? You also haven't done a lot of sci-fi. So when Roland said to you, "Do you want to do this?" Were you, "Uh, yes." WILSON: That he's a very relaxed focus. Even when he's stressed, it's very direct and very easy, probably very German. "Stop. Doesn't look good. Stop, do it over." It doesn't... What are you doing?" but it's always with care and ease. And there'll be this, there'll be that. It's very passionate and very focused, but you kind of imagine on a disaster movie, someone, "Yes! Explosions! Here we go.
I think there's a similar thing with disaster movies, because a lot of us worry about the disaster or environmental issues or what's going to happen, or life is stressful. But a disaster movie gives you that release and that escape. But usually, there's a human element that always makes you care about... There's usually a happy ending, right? The world's usually saved.
