Gareth Edwards on the Groundbreaking Way He Shot 'The Creator' & His 5-Hour Assembly Cut

Edwards also explains the importance of going to bathroom before taking the Hall H stage at San Diego Comic-Con.

The Big Picture If there’s one thing director Gareth Edwards’ experience with independent filmmaking taught him, it’s how to utilize your available resources efficiently. From his 2010 indie hit, Monsters, to gargantuan blockbusters like Godzilla and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Edwards put that knowledge to the test on The Creator, starring John David Washington, with a radical new way to turn the craft on its head after realizing that “in over a century, we've not changed a thing.

I do remember backstage, you saying to me, “I need to use the bathroom,” and I was explaining to you that you need to go all the way into the convention thing or back upstairs. I didn't realize the severity of it. The highlight of everything, though, was we went to play your footage from The Creator, the sizzle, and all of you guys went to use the bathroom. I've never seen a whole panel go to the bathroom.

I was going to say, is this a permanent change to the way you're going to make movies going forward? They went away, and I wouldn't say it's magic because I met some of them recently—I think one of the guys was called Tim, I said I would give him a shout out—but through a lot of blood, sweat, and tears, they managed to track all that stuff back into the computer and pulled it off. I think they were even surprised.
