No, it won’t be dedicated… I’ve read rumors that it will be a spin-off regarding Eleven, or regarding Dustin, or regarding another test subject number.
It is not interesting to me. Because, in my understanding… We have already done all this. I don’t know how many hours we have devoted to these characters. So the spin-off will be very different from the original. […]
I understand why people often say regarding our series: “Oh, this is just such a big declaration of love, this is an homage to those films …” But in fact, we were rather trying to reproduce the style of storytelling that seemed to have gone out of fashion by that time. .
I love Chris Nolan, but in the noughties everything became so dark, realistic and mundane … And we wanted to return to those non-ironic, sincere adventure family stories that were no longer told. Except for Super 8. Nobody else has done anything like this. “Super 8” was such one. He came out, and no one began to shoot either the second “Super 8” or “Super 9”. And it seemed to us that there is a demand for such stories.
