Matt Reeves Interview - The Director Of Cloverfield Speaks!

Tuesday, May 13

by Captain


Even before its release, Cloverfield was a pop culture phenomenon - now it goes down as one of those rare movies where the term 'instant classic' applies, beyond first weekend hype.

But the film isn't all that it appears, there's a little bit more it than some kids and a handycam and the Hollywood juggernaut that is JJ Abrams.

We managed to track down the film's million-words-per-minute director, Matt Reeves, in his LA office, just a day after he arrived back from the film's final theatrical release - in the home of Godzilla, Japan. He gave us the low down on the film's creation, production, and of course, whether there will be a sequel or not.

JJ ABRAMS LENDS A HAND!

Some people will look at the film and it's style and say 'wow, young director breaks into Hollywood' but that's not entirely the case, is it? You've been friends with JJ Abrams for a long time, you co-created Felicity together. But you did direct this film. How do you feel when it's got JJ Abrams all over the marketing? Do you feel like you're part of a team, or do you feel like you're being overshadowed by some egomaniac?

(laughs) Well JJ is my friend, literally since childhood, and he actually produced my first film, The Pallbearer, and we worked on Felicity together and I love working with him.

In the case of the movie we were making this totally under the radar with unknowns, and the one thing that JJ has really done in the last 8 years is to create this brand around him self, this sense of mystery with Lost and Alias and to some degree MI:3, there's a kind of style that especially the fan boys have kind of got into, that having him - but basically, no franchise, no actors and me not being known at all, then there was no question that the selling point was going to be JJ.

That was so much what I expected as the entry point, but I hoped that as people see the film they realise that I directed the film, and that one of the things now after it's out that people can go 'oh, JJ didn't direct it, that's right', but you know, the whole thing was such a crazy experience - JJ's name is part of what we had to market. Frankly, in that combination, the thing to sell to get people intrigued, was JJ.

Close Up: Rachel Luttrell



May 13, 2008 (Actors)

Teyla Emmagan has shown that she can cope with anything the Pegasus galaxy throws at her – but what about motherhood? Rachel Luttrell discusses the changes that season five brings for her character.

A brief excerpt:

Teyla has faced many terrifying situations in her time as a part of the Atlantis crew: she’s been kidnapped by Michael, had her mind invaded by a Wraith Queen and faced an erupting volcano to name but a few. But this year, the Athosian has something a little more fundamentally challenging to deal with – becoming a parent.

“I think she’s completely changed,” reveals actress Rachel Luttrell, speaking from set during the filming of episode five, ‘Ghost in the Machine’. “Teyla is now a working Momma! She’s had to completely deal with a shift in priorities. She’s decided to re-join the team, but it was a large question for her. It was something that she had to spend a considerable amount of time mulling over. Now, every time she leaves the base, she’s aware of the fact that she might not be coming home to be with her son. So things are very different.”
