‘Moon’ Director’s Next Film Remains To Be Determined
Moon, the debut feature film from director Duncan Jones, won the award for ‘Best New British Feature Film’ at the Edinburgh Film Festival on Sunday.
Over the last two months there have been regular conflicting reports over what Jones’ next feature film will be. At times it has been reported his next film will be a Blade Runner style sci-fi project titled Mute, whilst at others it has been reported his next film will be a submarine survival flick titled Escape from the Deep.
As a result of the win at the Edinburgh Film Festival many news sites are now reporting that his next project will be Mute after all. Whilst Jones has previously confirmed that he hopes Mute is the next film he works on, the up and coming director has exlusively confirmed to Sci Fi Scoop that there is no actual confirmation that Mute is next on the agenda and that it will be months before even he knows what’s next.
“I wish it were,” Jones said. “In all honesty, at this stage, whatever film i am lucky enough to do next, will take time. So there is no way anything will be certain for a good few months yet.”
In other Moon related news, Jones has confirmed that Clint Mansell’s score to Moon will be released in early July. Mansell’s previous soundtracks include The Fountain, Doom, The Wrestler and more recently Blood: The Last Vampire.
Finally, Moon continues to receive wider distribution. If you have yet to see what many are calling the best sci-fi film of 2009, click the link below to find a theater near you where Moon is playing and go see it – you won’t be disappointed.
