Dune 2 Director, Denis Villeneuve disclosed his most challenging, ambitious project in his portfolio during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
He revealed that this endeavor was exceptionally challenging, to the extent that it caused him sleepless nights.
The project in question is Blade Runner 2049, released in 2017.
He explained,
it was by far one of the most difficult projects I’ve ever done, and I don’t think I will ever approach someone else’s universe again,”
I was constantly thinking about the original film as I was making Blade Runner 2049. It was impossible not to.”
I still wake up sometimes at night, saying, ‘Why did I do that?’ I’d declined a few other projects of that scale, but at the time, I said to myself,
‘It’s a crazy project, but it’s worth the risk of losing everything.'”
