Mute Movie – Duncan Jones Interview

Mute Movie – Duncan Jones Interview. Duncan Jones, the director of the much buzzed about Moon movie, is already working on his second film for which he is reportedly being paid the very A-List amount of US$25 million. Wow. Just wow.

The movie is about the mysterious disappearance of a woman who …. well, let’s have the director tell us more about it. From his interview with io9:

Speaking of Ridley Scott, you mentioned earlier a desire to make a Blade Runner-esque sequel set in a futuristic Berlin. Can you tell us more about that?
I still want to do that film, and I’m still hoping to do it, and have it be the next film I do. It’s not Blade Runner 2. I have no claim on that at all. The only reason that I mention Blade Runner is because there’s something about that particular film, where they really created a believable and realistic living breathing futuristic world. For all of the other films that have tried to do that I don’t think anything has come as close the way Blade Runner has to creating something believable. Something that feels real and organic. It’s like going to a real city and shooting a film there. You just get a sense that this place exists. [In] most of the science fiction films, it always feels a bit fake and a bit flat, but Blade Runner really didn’t. That’s the aspect of Blade Runner I’m hoping to capture. If and when I get the chance to do my film that I’m making.

According to a report by the Daily Mail, Natalia “left fellow revellers spellbound when she stripped off her clothes and plunged into a lake” during the Secret Garden Music Festival.

How cool is that? Says a source: ‘Natalia was paddling in the lake completely naked. Lots of people were swimming, but most of them had bikinis or shorts on. People were pointing at her because they recognised her from the Harry Potter films, but she didn’t seem to care.’
