Roland Emmerich may be the king of disaster movies, but he says COVID has not inspired any ideas for a pandemic film: “It’s a very depressing thing. They did ‘Contagion’ and that was a cool movie but not really one of my favorites.”
Emmerich is hopeful movie-goers will still turn out to see the disaster film in theaters. “Time will tell,” he said. “I really have no idea.”
Halle Berry and Patrick Wilson star as NASA astronauts who are joined on a trip to space by an amateur scientist and conspiracy theorist to try and save the earth from being destroyed by the moon, which has mysteriously gone off its orbit. “Halle was actually somebody I always wanted to work with, but never had quite the role for her. Then at one point, I said, ‘I am going make this role a woman,’ and I put Halle Berry on the top of the list,” Emmerich said. “We had to rewrite it a little bit but it was easy.”
While Emmerich may be the king of disaster movies, he says COVID has not inspired any ideas for a pandemic-centered film. “I don’t like people being sick,” he said. “It’s a very depressing thing. They did ‘Contagion’ and that was a cool movie but not really one of my favorites.”
