Adam Wingard wanted to limit the human cast's screen time in 'Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire'. The 41-year-old director has helmed the new monster movie and was determined to minimise the human involvement in the picture so the appropriate focus was placed on the two towering beasts. Adam told The Hollywood Reporter: "In the development phase, my motto was, ‘Simplicity is key.’ And so I knew that if we created a smaller cast, we could create a more intimate story. "We can still spend time with [the human characters], and at the same time, we can spend more time with the monsters and not short...

The 'Face/Off' sequel is much delayed. The follow-up to the 1997 action blockbuster starring Nicolas Cage and John Travolta has been heavily impacted by last year's writer's strike. The flick's co-writer Adam Wingard told io9: "Almost in the middle of production [on Godzilla x Kong], we were finishing our draft of the script and because both of us were too busy working on other things there was a plan to do a rewrite, and we picked a writer to work on it. "And then the writers' strike happened so that delayed things. Right now, that's still inactive, so I think the plan with that one will be t...

Nicolas Cage claims that the 'Face/Off' sequel will feature the children of Castor Troy and Sean Archer. The 59-year-old actor is set to reprise his role in Adam Wingard's sequel to the 1997 action thriller and claims that the offspring of his and John Travolta's characters will be involved in the new flick. Speaking to Collider, Nicolas said: "I think 'Face/Off' is a sequel that lends itself to a lot of twists and turns and unpredictability. "It's almost like if you factor in the idea of offspring and Castor and Sean having children and these children grow up, then it becomes like three-dimen...

The 39-year-old director is helming a follow-up to the John Woo's 1997 action film – that starred Cage and John Travolta – and says it will be an "absolute sequel" to allow the 'National Treasure' actor to return despite his character's death in the original flick. Adam told Empire magazine: "He's just having such a moment. Even before 'Pig' came out, we saw this as a Nicolas Cage movie. "That's become totally the obvious way to go now. A couple of years ago, the studio maybe would have wanted a hot, young, up-and-com...

The 38-year-old director is helming a follow up to the 1997 action film and hopes that John and Nicolas will reprise their roles as FBI agent Sean Archer and terrorist Castor Troy respectively to provide a "definitive continuation" to the original.
