"I remember being in New Orleans and directing, and looking around before realising there were only four of us rehearsing - two directors, Adam and Ariana. It felt a lot like rehearsing a stage play, but without dialogue. "So much of what is said in the movie is unspoken. There was a lot of trying to communicate non-verbally because, at the end of the day, we wanted this film to feel like pure cinema - meaning that we could play this movie on silent and you could enjoy it just as much as having the audio on."That idea of a movie still working even with the sound went down is something Raiders of the Lost Ark (released in 1981) won much praise for. Indeed, Steven Soderbergh recut 'Raiders' to be an entirely silent movie - to prove his point - back in 2014. [caption id="attachment_769951" align="alignnone" width="640"]

"I do lean more towards wanting to do more of stunts in my films because I know that with films I watch and rewatch, the more I study them, they do disintegrate a little bit. The physicality of a character is really important to keep it consistent".Talking about his motivations behind taking on such a different role to his previous big hits, Driver said that "I don't know if people are going to ask me to fight dinosaurs again, so when it comes you have to grab it!" "The original first draft was even wilder", exclaimed the House of Gucci star, whilst going on to say that his latest film will be something "unique, and not a thing which people have seen a million times".
