So the reception for it at Comic-Con earlier this year was resoundingly warm across the board and has generated excited anticipation as a result; but what does Dan Lin, producer of hits SHERLOCK HOLMES 1 & 2, TERMINATOR: SALVATION and THE INVENTION, have to say about the eagerly awaited 2014 release GODZILLA, the latest Legendary Pictures project to have him at the helm?
‘We’re planning to film in March. We are in deep pre-production. Gareth (Edwards) has really mapped out his vision for the movie, you saw the teaser, but Gareth – thanks to (Legendary CEO) Thomas Tull’s help – he took over a whole stage on the Warner Brothers lot and not only showed the teaser you saw, he had some models built of GODZILLA, he had art decorated all over the sound-stage, he had pre-vis of some of the big action sequences in the movie.’
Lin also had plenty to say about Gareth Edwards, director behind 2010 indie flick MONSTERS, and his intentions for the picture:
‘So we’re in deep pre-production and Gareth’s vision of the movie is really exciting, it’s a true reboot of GODZILLA. And you saw from the Comic-Con footage it is a grounded, realistic version of GODZILLA. “What would happen if GODZILLA came into our world today?”
With a bit of luck, Matthew Broderick would be squished under his foot…
