Mortal Engines
Film (Trailer) – 2018
In designing the future, we had to imagine most of our world has been destroyed and grab certain iconic things from our world that might have survived...– Director Christian Rivers in The Independent, 5 June 2018
That is one of the things that appealed to us — that it is such a unique world. I’ve never seen a city on wheels that is twice as large as the biggest cruise ship in the world.– Co-writer Peter Jackson on the appeal of Mortal Engines, The Independent, 5 June 2018
Films are hierarchical and the director is essentially the creative dictator. So, my services to Peter [Jackson] have always been to help him achieve his vision. And now, on this one, it’s sort of the other way around.– Director Christian Rivers on website Collider, 5 June 2018
