“So long as Daniel [Craig] nonetheless needs to maintain doing it and so long as we have now an concept that, to us, feels not identical to cranking one other one out, however feels genuinely thrilling and scary like, ‘Oh, wow, may we pull that off?’ I really like the style. It’s endlessly malleable, and so it holds countless potentialities. However on the similar time, I’ve made three of them in a row. I don’t really feel burnt out on it in any respect, however the subsequent factor I’ve in my head to write down is an unique that’s not a thriller in any respect. It’s a completely completely different style. One of many issues I really like concerning the thriller style is that it holds the whodunit. Like sci-fi, it encompasses so many different kinds of genres. ‘Wake Up Useless Man,’ this subsequent film, is so completely different than ‘Glass Onion.’ It’s like evening and day. And so, so long as we hold doing that, it’s thrilling.”
