- Hi everyone, I'm James Wan,
00:06
director of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.
00:09
For me, the fun stuff,
00:11
when Jason Momoa and Patrick Wilson are together,
00:14
they have good chemistry together.
00:15
For me as a filmmaker,
00:16
it's kind of fun to just sort of see them
00:18
goof around on set.
00:19
Probably the goofiest moments
00:20
is whenever they have to interact
00:23
with sea creatures that are not really there,
00:25
or that they are performed by someone in a green suit.
00:29
Shooting in the scene, we're all very serious,
00:31
but when you stand back
00:33
and you go look at it through the camera,
00:35
or on the monitor screen, it's pretty funny.
00:37
I really designed this film for the big screen.
00:39
I shot the movie aspect ratio 240,
00:42
which is cropped like that.
00:43
Then when I get into the big Atlanta scenes,
00:45
I would open it up, right?
00:46
Like into full, you know, sort of full screen, big screen.
00:49
And we spent a lot of hard work and effort in designing.
00:53
Every tiny little details undersea world.
00:56
I think people will see things on the big screen
00:59
that they may not see on TV.
01:01
I definitely do think that technology has improved
01:03
so dramatically between the first movie and this one
01:06
that I can kind of really,
01:08
I can push the animal off more.
01:09
We have a scene in the movie where a chase sequence,
01:12
almost like a car chase through Atlantis,
01:14
where they go through different parts of Atlantis,
01:17
and one of them is a night market.
01:18
So what does a night market looks like in Atlantis, right?
01:21
What does a freeway look like underwater?
01:23
All these things can just add
01:24
to the fun of making it and then ultimately watching it.
01:28
The movie has message as well.
01:30
The message of kind of protecting the world that we live in.
01:33
We only have one planet.
01:34
We all maybe need to come together,
01:36
put our differences aside and work as one.
01:39
I think, you know, like those are very universal messages.
01:42
And also the concept of Arthur
01:44
needing to work closely with his brother.
01:47
The concept of blood is thicker than water.
01:50
Family is important.
01:51
And so, you know, it plays with a lot of these themes
01:53
that I tend to play with in a lot of my films.
01:56
I cannot wait for everyone to check out this movie.
01:59
It's a continuation of the first film.
02:00
If you enjoyed and loved the first movie,
02:03
it's pretty much that and more.
02:05
We discovered new worlds and new characters,
02:07
and I'm super proud of it.
02:09
I hope you guys will have fun watching it.
02:11
See you in the theaters.
