The Tomorrow War Director Chris McKay on Film's Unusual Structure and Not Overthinking Time Travel
Jul 10 2021
With The Tomorrow War now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, I recently spoke with director Chris McKay about making the time-traveling alien apocalypse blockbuster. During the interview, McKay talked about what people would be surprised to learn about the making of The Tomorrow War, how the film pulls a Bad Boys 2 in that you think the film is over, but it’s just the end of the second act, why he wanted the film to only focus on what Chris Pratt’s character sees, not diving too deep into the time travel mechanics, why he was disappointed to cut out a great scene between Betty Gilpin and Pratt’s character about their backstory, and more. In addition, he reveals what happened to The LEGO Batman Movie sequel, the status of his Jonny Quest movie, and how his next film could be Renfield which will focus on the titular Dracula henchman.
