GREG RUSSELL.
>> GOOD TO SEE YOU, JASON.
>> Jason: JOINING US FROM HIS
SUBURBAN BUNGALOW.
"BLACK BOTTOM" THE LAST MOVIE
WITH BOSEMAN.
>> VERY GOOD MOVIE.
SHE WAS A SINGER AT THE TURN OF
THE LAST CENTURY AND DIDN’T TAKE
ANYTHING FROM ANYBODY, A PURE
DIVA AT THE TIME.
HE JOINED THE BAND AND HE WAS
YOUNGER, AND WANTED TO CHANGE
THE MUSIC TO GET UP WITH THE
TIMES, AND THEY BUTTED HEADS IN
A RECORDING STUDIO IN CHICAGO
AND I TALKED TO DAVIS AND TURNER
ABOUT THE MOVIE AND ALSO WORKING
WITH CHAD WICK.
>> AND SHE GOES UP AGAINST THIS
TOUR DEFORCE IN HER BAND.
>> YEAH.
AND THOSE TWO WERE JUST GOING AT
EACH OTHER CONSTANTLY.
IT WAS A GOOD MATCH TO SEE WITH
YOU GUYS.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
AUGUST ALWAYS DOES THAT AND
REPRESENTS THE MATERIAL WORLD
AND ONE THAT REPRESENTS THE
SPIRITUAL WORLD.
I WOULD SAY IF I HAD LOOKED
THROUGH ALL OF HIS PLAYS, HE
DOES THAT, THE SPIRITUAL WORLD
ALWAYS WINS OUT.
LEVY, HIS CAME FROM HIS YOUTH
AND THE IGNORANCE OF HIS YOUTH
AND NOT KNOWING THAT THE PATH
WAS HOLDING HIM BACK AND NOT
UNDERSTANDING HOW TO RECONCILE
THAT.
>> AND THE CHARACTER IS PLAYED
BY CHADWICK BOSEMAN.
WHAT WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE LIKE
WORKING WITH HIM?
>> GREAT.
YOU’RE IN THE PRESENCE OF
GREATNESS.
AND YOU WERE IN THE PRESENCE OF
SOMEONE WHO WAS ONLY GONNA GET
BETTER. >> WHAT YOU SAW WITH CHADWICK
>> WHAT YOU SAW WITH CHADWICK
WAS ARTISTRY AND A LACK OF EGO,
AND KINDNESS.
>> THERE HE WAS DOING WHAT I WAS
TAUGHT TO DO, YOU KNOW.
AND SO I WAS PROUD TO SEE HIM
CARRYING ON THAT TRADITION.
>> FOR EVERYBODY THAT ENJOYED COOLIE HIGH, THEY SAID HELLO.
COOLIE HIGH, THEY SAID HELLO.
[LAUGHTER]
>> Jason: GOOD FOR YOU WORKING
THE COOLEY HIGH REFERENCE THERE.

APPLE TV PLUS CALLED WOLF
WALKERS.

A LITTLE GIRL FROM IRELAND AND
THEY MOVE TO A PART OF THE
COUNTRY WHERE THERE ARE A LOT OF
WOLVES.
SHE GETS TO MEET THEM, BEFRIENDS
THEM AND REALIZES ONCE YOU GET
TO KNOW SOMEBODY OR ANY ANIMAL,
YOU CAN ALL COEXIST.
I TALKED TO WRITERS, PRODUCERS,
AND DIRECTORS WHO PUT IT ALL
TOGETHER AND THE TWO YOUNG
LADIES.
HERE WE GO.
>> IT TOOK ME BACK TO THE WAY
SOME THINGS LOOKED LIKE WHEN I
WAS A KID GROWING UP.
THAT TYPE OF ANIMATION AND A
MAGICAL LOOK.
TELL ME ABOUT THAT.
HOW DID IT COME ABOUT USING THAT
TECHNIQUE.
>> WE TRAINED IN HAND DRAWN
ANIMATION IN COLLEGE.
AND FROM LEAVING COLLEGE, WE
WERE GIVEN A CHOICE TO GO OFF
AND WORK IN COMPUTER GAMES AND
FIND ANOTHER JOB, TO TRY AND DO SOMETHING OURSELVES.
SOMETHING OURSELVES.
>> AND [INDISCERNIBLE] AND
EXPLORE TECHNIQUES AND IDEAS TO
LEARN DURING THE PRODUCTION, AND
WE CAME ONE A STORY BASED ON
THINGS THAT WE WERE INSPIRED BY.
>> I PLAY ROBIN, AND SHE COMES
INTO THIS NEW VILLAGE WITH HER
FATHER AND IT’S HER SETTLING IN,
A VERY BRAVE INDEPENDENT STRONG
GIRL AND IT’S JUST HER JOURNEY
OF FINDING HERSELF THROUGHOUT
THE FILM, AND SHE FINDS MAIZE
WHO IS A FIVE-DAY FORECASTY GIRL
WHO LIVES IN THE FOREST WITH A
PACK OF WOLVES.
AND SHE HAS NO INHIBITIONS AND
DOESN’T HOLD BACK.
AND SHE’S A WOLF WALKER, WHICH
MEANS SHE HAS THE ABILITY TO
TURN INTO A WOLF WHEN SHE FALLS
ASLEEP.
>> Jason: HOW MANY REELS?
>> A 4 BECAUSE IT’S A CHARMING
MOVIE, AND IT REMINDS YOU OF THE
ARTISTRY OF "WHERE THE WILD
