In an interview with Magazine EmpireDirector Bong explained that "Mickey 17" is really his last crash, and that Borsen Warner has never tried to take him. "The studio respected my last right to reduce," he said, but also said they were ready to contribute as associates instead of overseers. "Of course, during the editing process there are many opinions and a lot of discussions that are happening," he continued. "But this movie is my intersection, and I'm very happy about it. It was a long process, but it was always smooth and respected."

When director Bong first began writing "Mickey 17", he was under the US presidential administration of OEO Biden. I can't imagine that he could predict that we would live under the Trump administration again when he wrote the character, because Marshall is very presented as someone from the rest of the world moved and now we will be able to look back and laugh because he is no longer a serious threat.

Unfortunately, It's not the world we live inAnd by presenting Marshall as Trump's avatar, he, "Mickey 17", ceases to feel like a speculative fiction work and becomes a warning about the things that should arise if we are not careful. If director Bong was not approved for the last reduction, I can't imagine that the studio was bravely enough to see the election results and still allow the film to come out as it is. Disney recently found under fire after Cutting a transgender story from the Pixar series "Win or Lose", Something that was obviously fine when they gave the green light, but it clearly got cold legs, including on the eve of Trump's re -election.

I'll admit that when i saw "Mickey 17" in the theaters, i Found Mycelf Choking Back Tears A Few Times - Not BeCause It's a Tearjerker of A Movie or Anything, but BeCause i Didn' Someone (in this case, Director Bong) to put somethingually says, "Hey, You're not Crazy, You'e Just Living Under the Regime of An Absolute Maniac and Trying to Maintain Impossible Ask. ” I hope Warner Bros. knows how important this film is for our current time period, and I hope that other study will notice and stop stifling the creative voices of the people who engage them and trust them to do their job. The world is better for that.

I was talking about the film about today's episode of /film daily podcast, which features my full interview with director Bong and several members of the film:
