00:00They're not even close to being ready.
00:06I'm doing everything I can to keep this family from falling apart.
00:11Jupiter's Legacy is the first project to come out of Mark Miller's deal with Netflix,
00:16and he said that he wanted this show to start where other superhero fare ends.
00:20How do you think this show does that,
00:21and what makes it different than other superhero stories we've seen on screen before?
00:24Well, I think this deals with human relatable themes.
00:31You know, what is it like having the responsibility of this so long,
00:35and then looking back on it all and realizing maybe you weren't as present of a father as you should have been,
00:40or this code that you've always, you know, believed in so strongly and lived by
00:45and expected everybody else to live by, suddenly it was being questioned.
00:48You know, there's real, you know, current themes at play,
00:53which I think makes it relatable and a little bit more subversive in a lot of ways.
00:59For one, it comes from the mind of Mark Miller,
01:02and for people who know his work, they know what I mean,
01:05but for people who don't, they're about to find out.
01:07It's, I mean, a lot of people love superhero films,
01:10some people don't because they feel they're a little bit glossy.
01:13This is not that.
01:14This is dark.
01:15This is gritty.
01:15I think the main difference about Jupiter's Legacy is the fact that it really, really focuses on relationships and family dynamics.
01:24The core of our show is, is, is a family drama.
01:29The man I knew was never at home when I was a kid.
01:33Too busy saving the world.
01:35Mark Miller has said that he wanted to tell the greatest superhero story of all time with Jupiter's Legacy.
01:40What do you think makes this the greatest superhero story of all time?
01:43I absolutely love its span and breadth.
01:49I mean, I don't know a huge lot about superheroes,
01:51but what I loved when I read it was that you have these characters in the 1920s,
01:57and you follow this origin story at the same time as you see them how they are in the present day.
02:04Yeah, I just think it's, it's span and breadth and detail and complexity and gray areas.
02:12I just find it endlessly fascinating.
02:14It's the fact that it's focused on all the complex layers of what it means to be a superhero.
02:20We have all of these complex sort of relationships going on that have been intertwined.
02:25I mean, it's traveling through time between, you know, going back into like the 1920s,
02:30right up into the present sort of thing.
02:31So I think it's not just the greatest superhero story of all time.
02:35If I was to liken it to something, it would be more like the Odyssey.
02:39It's that epic journey that we're going on, right?
02:42Traveling through space and time and finally getting to a point where we get to meet us here in the present.
02:46I think there's an epicness to it.
02:49It feels like there is sort of like Greek mythology or Shakespeare or something like that.
02:55It feels like you feel that sort of storytelling and that sort of relationships that everybody,
03:01like you see it in a big level.
03:04And I think also seeing it, you never see people at the beginning and the end.
03:09So I thought that was a really fresh sort of way of looking at it.
03:12And I had never seen anything like that.
03:14There's so much.
03:15I feel like it hits every note in the symphony of superhero genre.
03:19It's not only spectacle and fun and wild ride and humor and all this.
03:23It gets deep.
03:24It gets gritty and intimate in a non-peripheral way that I don't think I've really seen before.
03:27It's really a refreshing kind of approach.
03:29You know, if you look at like the really old classic superhero movies,
03:32it's always like, here's the side of the day, perfect thing, like smile.
03:36Like there's not, you know, we don't pierce the membrane of like,
03:39what is the, like the emotional kryptonite of these characters,
03:42not just the physical kryptonite.
03:44I'm excited to hear more of the feedback for what people think of it
03:47because I do think it is super, super unique.
03:50You do the right thing, somebody dies.
03:54You do the wrong thing, somebody dies.
03:59How much do you know about where the story is going
04:03and could we see it possibly go beyond what we already know from the comics?
04:08Well, yeah, I think anything's possible.
04:10We already know he's writing Jupiter's Requiem,
04:12which I think is coming out in June or July, if I'm not mistaken.
04:16So it's the whole legacy of more than two generations.
04:19I think we're looking at three generations in Jupiter's Requiem.
04:22Well, I will say we're going, we're probably going to go pretty far
04:25because don't forget Mark Miller's coming out with Requiem.
04:29Very soon.
04:30So there's more to come for sure.
04:32And there's been a question that I, when I read the comics
04:35and I've been watching the series is,
04:38why were they chosen?
04:40And why, and what, why were they given these powers?
04:43I've read two copies of Jupiter's Requiem
04:47and it's so exciting what happens to these characters again
04:51and another generation along.
04:53So, yeah, I guess it will be on for as long as people want to watch it.
04:58I'll see you in somewhere else.
05:02Now, once again.
05:04I'll see you in the next game.
05:06I'll see you at the next game.
05:07Bye.
05:08Bye.
05:08Bye.
05:10Bye.
05:10Bye.
05:11Bye.
05:11Bye.
