How to Train Your Dragon: Interview with Directors Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois

Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois are the directors of "How to Train Your Dragon," the latest 3-D animated film from Dreamworks Animation. The film, which stars Gerard Butler, Jay Baruchel, Kristen Wiig, and more, is being released on March 26 in both 3-D and IMAX.

“Chris called me up on a weekend right after Jeffrey Katzenberg had talked to him,” adds writer/director Dean DeBlois, “and he mentioned that ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ was something that was really in my wheelhouse, specifically, a teenaged protagonist in a larger-than-life fantasy action-adventure. And that’s really something that I am drawn to."

 

 

 

Girl With the Dragon Tattoo: Interview with Director of Swedish Hit

Opening March 19
 
I wanted a film with strong emotions, strong characters and a controversial and intriguing story and this book had it all. The visual style and production design had to show a big and special film. I wanted all the small clues and details in Larsson’s book to be there – old still photos, which make Harriet come alive, old footage from the bridge accident, Lisbeth having a photographic memory. And I wanted the film to keep the edge that the book has; that it dares to show the dark side of society.

Remember Me: Statement from Director Allen Coulter

Allen Coulter is the director of "Remember Me," the new romance starring Robert Pattinson, Emilie de Ravin, and Pierce Brosnan. The film is being released March 12 by Summit Entertainment.

"When I first read Will Fetter's script, REMEMBER ME (at that time entitled MEMOIRS), several of its many qualities struck a deep chord within me: first of all, it presented New York City at a particularly important time in its history. As a New Yorker, I reveled in the opportunity to accurately depict that time in a city that I know so well and have loved so long." – Director Allen Coulter

 

 

 

Green Zone: Interview with star Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass

Matt Damon stars as Miller in the Iraqi war thriller "Green Zone," directed by Paul Greengrass. The film, which marks the duo's third collaboration after two "Bourne" films, is being released March 12 by Universal.

Not long after they wrapped principal photography on their second collaboration, Matt Damon agreed to a third project with the man who directed him in The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum. “Working with Paul is an invigorating process because he insists on capturing something real for the camera,” commends Damon. “It’s no surprise when you look at his other work. Not a moment of Bloody Sunday is contrived or promotes a personal agenda."
