00:00You've said your horror movies are made up of your worst nightmares.
00:04Which of those will we see on screen in this movie?
00:07Well, today you'll see my biggest nightmares because
00:11just Alien has always been the scariest movie ever for me,
00:14so to be able to go into that world and bring it to a new generation
00:19and bring it to life in a way that it's never been brought to life before
00:22and it's such a realistic and almost documentary way,
00:25you'll see it's really the things that made all my nightmares.
00:29So that's what's going to happen today.
00:32There are so many practical effects in this film.
00:34Why was it important for you to lean in to doing practical effects in this movie?
00:38Well, I think what's important to me is what I think is important for the audience.
00:42And I think the masses out there and the audience that loves these movies particularly,
00:46they really prefer to see the practical effects.
00:48They really want to see something that feels real, that feels grounded.
00:52And so we went above and beyond in a really hard way because it's so difficult.
00:57I can't explain to you how difficult it is to do it this way.
00:59Obviously, it's easier to just shoot an empty space and get some CG creature later on.
01:04We didn't do that. We just went all the way to create creatures with the technology of today, right?
01:09With the philosophy of the old movies but with technology of today
01:13to create something that people don't see on screen every day.
