Director Mostow Talks ‘Surrogates’
ComingSoon.net has just released an especially interesting interview with Surrogates director Jonathon Mostow (U-571). The questions are mostly intelligent, if not always at least appropriate, and Mostow offers a lot of intriguing information, none of which should be considered spoiling.
Surrogates, starring Bruce Willis, Ving Rhames, and Rosamund Pike, is about a world where each person has their own personal robot. However instead of these robots being sentient (users of AI), they act as puppets or avatars, exploring and experiencing the world for their owners while they sit safely in their homes. The sci-fi thriller is based off of a comic book series of the same name, created by Robert Venditti and Brett Weldele.
The film is in its final editing stage and is scheduled for wide-release September 25th.
