Wyck Godfrey Interview
IESB has an interview with Wyck Godfrey.
Check it all out here.
Here is an excerpt:
IESB: Since Eclipse specifically has been talked about the favorite book of the series for a lot of people and people thought it would make the best film, do you think that this installment will live up to those expectations?
Wyck: I do think that, so far, the word we’ve gotten is that it lives up to and exceeds people’s expectations. I think it’s easy because you have Team Edward and Team Jacob getting equal play. The hard thing about New Moon, for instance, was that, for the people that loved Jacob, they loved the movie, but Edward’s not in it much. Here’s a movie now where Edward is back in the picture, and it’s all about Bella and her choice between the two of them, and the conflict that arises out of that. It’s just got more drama than the other two books. There’s just more going on between her emotional state, but also the physical state and what’s happening with the Newborns. You feel like, all of a sudden, in this movie, all of the external dangers of the world are descending on Forks, and it’s on. Given that it has more genre elements than New Moon and Twilight, I feel like guys will embrace it more than the earlier two films. But, the thing that’s most exciting to me is that I think it’s the most emotionally potent of the three, so we haven’t betrayed our core audience, who really are going for the romance because it’s heartbreaking. That’s really exciting.
