Adam Driver offers insights into Francis Ford Coppola’s MEGALOPOLIS: “The Movie Is Wild.”

Adam Driver we talk once again Francis Ford Coppolais a science fiction film project long in development Megalopolis, and the actor is doing a great job of publicizing it. This is a film I’m incredibly excited about, it’s supposed to be Coppola’s magnum opus and I’m ready to experience what he’s accomplished.

Speaking with Collider in a recent interview, Driver teased the upcoming film, saying, “The movie is wild. It’s so imaginative and big and epic, and it’s bold. It takes a risk and I couldn’t be more excited about it.

Driver also spoke about his experience working on the film and compared it to the productions of other films. As you know, Coppola financed the film himself and it turned out to be the best experience he ever had. So that’s encouraging! He said:

“Because he financed it himself, it made the filming process one of the best experiences, if not the best, I’ve ever had. There were no excessive conversations, there were no people robbing Peter to pay Paul.

“It felt like he was in control of the movie he wanted to make and that was it. I felt like, ‘Oh, this is what movies should be.’ And he is the most generous and philosophical person I know. I loved that process and making it with him. I love talking to him.

The film tells the story of an architect who dreams of a utopian version of New York in the near future and his battle with the conservative mayor, who has other ideas about the city. The epic contains a myriad of plots and characters. “The fate of Rome haunts a modern world unable to solve its social problems in this epic story of political ambition.”

Coppola described the film as “a love story. A woman is torn between her loyalty to two men. But not just two men. Every man comes with a philosophical principle. One is her father who raised her, who taught her Latin in her womb and is devoted to a much more classical vision of society, the vision of Marcus Aurelius. The other, who is the lover, is the father’s enemy but is dedicated to a much more progressive discourse ‘Let’s take a leap into the future, let’s skip all this rubbish that has been contaminating humanity for 10,000 years. Let’s discover what we really are, which is an enlightened, friendly and joyful species.’”

Coppola had also previously said of the film: “What would make me really happy? It’s not winning a lot of Oscars because I already have a lot of them and maybe more than I deserve. And it’s not that I make a lot of money, although I think over time it will make a lot of money.” of money because everything that people keep watching and finding new things, makes money So somewhere along the line, long after I’m gone, all I want is for them to talk about it [Megalopolis] and is the society we live in the only one available to us? How can we improve it? Education, mental health? What the film really proposes is that utopia is not a place. It’s how can we make everything better? Every year, come up with two, three or four ideas that make it better.”

“I would be smiling in my grave if I thought something like this happened, because people talk about what movies really mean if you give them something. If I encouraged people to talk about marriage, education, health, justice, opportunity, freedom and all of these wonderful things that humans have designed. And ask yourself the question: How can we make it even better? That would be great. Because I bet they would make it better if they had that conversation.”

It also includes the cast of the film Shia LaBeouf, Forest Whitaker, Nathalie Emmanuel, Jon Voight, Aubrey Square, Jason Schwartzmann, Laurence Fishburne, Grace VanderWaal, Kathryn Hunter, Giacomo Remar, Talia County.
