Director Garrett Edwards, who was recognized for his directing skills in the films 'Rogue One: Star Wars Story' and 'Creator', took the megaphone and completed the original world.
Director Garrett Edwards said, `The most important thing about making a movie like this is to be a fan myself. When someone asks me to make a successful 'Jurassic World' series, it's hard to put it into words. Once you are a fan of the movie, you can make all audiences feel it beyond language. It seems that hundreds of decisions are made when making a movie. If you go to the left, you will follow the original 'Jurassic World', and if you go to the right, you will flow in a completely different direction from the original. As a director, I tried to keep the balance between the two sides well, and I made the movie selfishly for me"'Jurassic World4' is like a love letter to director Steven Spielberg.'"
In particular, Hollywood actors gathered expectations for 'Jurassic World 4'. Scarlett Johansson has visited Korean fans for the first time in eight years since the 2017 film 'Sparket Mobilization: Ghost in the Shell'. He said "I'm so excited to come to Korea. I wish I had more time"I went to Myeongdong and bought a lot of skincare and makeup products, and tasted seven kinds of kimchi. I'm going to meet my fans later at night and I'm really looking forward to it. Thank you for always welcoming us."
Scarlett Johansson played Zora, a special operations expert in the play, heralding a new transformation. He was `lucky.' My childhood dream came true. As a huge fan of the Jurassic World, I participated with pride" he said.
"I didn't actually see the dinosaur and acted while watching the tennis ball on the stick," he said of the difficulties during the filming. "I had to take my fear with me while maintaining my tension and physical strength. As the action scene was so tense, he had to show a determined look as soon as the 'Q' sign fell. Then, when I said I had to wait because there was a problem with the camera, I lowered and raised the tension. The scene of expressing wonder and surprise also had to be played after watching a tennis ball, and the fellow actors who filmed it together did so brilliantly. We were able to finish the shoot by maintaining a sense of immersion and relying on each other"I thanked him.
Jonathan Bailey says "I'm so excited right now. I heard that the reaction of Korean fans was the best among the audiences around the world. There are a lot of people who like movies in Korea. I know that the 'Jurassic World' series is also popular, and I'm happy to come to a country where I like movies. It's unfortunate that I have to go back tomorrow morning, but I want to enjoy today as much as I can"I expressed my emotion.
Jonathan Bailey, who played paleontologist Dr Henry, "I wanted to express well the curiosity and wonder of dinosaurs. Dr. Henry said, "A man who has spent his whole life working on a subject, only researching."The very fact that I was in the series "Jurassic World" made me feel like Henry, who actually met dinosaurs."."
Rupert Friend played Martin, an executive at a pharmaceutical giant that hires Zora to develop new drugs. Visiting Korea for the second time, he said, `It was my wife and I who came to Seoul to speak"I met with the Veterans Association, politicians, and fans to make beautiful memories."," he said. Then on the memorable episode "There was a god facing the dinosaur and Dr. Henry against the backdrop of a beautiful meadowIsn't Henry a paleontologist who really likes dinosaurs in the work. Standing in the back watching Jonathan film it, I got goosebumps all over my body. For the first time in my life, I felt like I was going to cry when I saw him make a phenomenal expression while touching a dinosaur. When I saw it, I was amazed, saying, `Oh, this is the power of imagination, this is the power of this franchise.'
Finally, director Garrett Edwards said, "'Girlfriend is a fan of BLACKPINK.'" Before making the movie, we went to see a LA performance together, and the fandom was huge. It was the first time that thousands of fans filled with love gathered like this. I'm going to many countries around the world again this time, but I think Korean fans will respond the most. There are many events prepared tonight, so I expect it to be the best experience."
