It seems baffling to me that you can shoot 80% of the film, and only at that stage realise that the working situation is impossible.
I have massive fears for this now. The cast looked meh for the most part aside from Lando, it was a story that didnt need telling and basically Lord and Miller's involvement was the one thing that had me interested, seeing as everything they'd done had been gold. Now, it'll head into a massive scramble as they put in a new director, that will have to go over everything they shot, have to re-edit and reshoot massive segments most likely, and depending on how much the studio has an issue with it, it could end up being an entirely new film.
I'd be astonished if its release doesnt get moved.
I just think its bonkers. You hire two directors known for a specific tone and style of writing and humour, and 6 months into shooting the film you are shocked that said directors are trying to implement that style? Why hire people who are known for a more improvisational style, when you want someone who will stick to script?
