Updates From The Mandalorian & Grogu, and More

In the past, I think they’ve done a suit. Michael Chiklis wore a suit that apparently was really uncomfortable, and it’s kind of…we’re past that, I think. It’s a little kind of cosplay, a little amateur, that stuff now, with the technology we have. So yeah, I think it’s mostly performance capture. Motion capture, performance capture.

I’m talking to some journalists, I’m reading a lot of comics — so many I hadn’t read before. It’s been really fun to dig into this universe … I got to see the suit — and I was blown away!

An older, darker Pinhead would intrigue me, one not so much in love with the flippant one-liners and the witty comebacks and so forth.

Working with M. Night was one of the best experiences of my career. I think he’s a true artist in the capital-A sense of the word. And I think people are gonna be really surprised and excited about the movie we make. It’s very bizarre, very dark, and it’s wild.

There is this one weird idea that I have that is kind of… if I explained it, it would make sense. But we’ll see what happens. Let’s get this movie done first, see if people like it. Then we’ll go from there.

Dahl wrote loads of stories about Willy Wonka, many of which are in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and many of which aren’t. He was a character he kept returning to. So there’s definitely room for more Willy Wonka stories. We know he’s traveled the world, we know he’s been back to Loompaland and met Oompa Loompas, so there’s plenty of meat on the bone to explore. I think now that the film has done well, especially, you sort of go, ‘I’m sure there will be an appetite to see if we can find a story worth telling.’ So for sure, it’s something we’re thinking about.

Harry tags along on Ben, Kate and Max’s family trip, hoping the mayor will lead him to answers.
