The Oscar-winning director is pushing the boundaries of filmmaking once again by blending traditional filmmaking with new technology.
Francis Ford Coppola has been trying to get his mega-epic Megalopolis off the ground for years. After selling a massive share of his winery, the writer-director is ready to fund his film from his own pocket and start production on the film.
Megalopolis is a futuristic feature that has been 20 years in the making. Similar to why it has taken James Cameron so long to make Avatar: The Way of Water, Coppola has been waiting for the technology to be ready for his vision. Finally, the technology is ready for Megalopolis.
Coppola confirmed to IndieWire that his wide-spanning film will be the first feature shot on the LED volume stage at the newly opened Prysm Stages at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia.
