Paul W.S. Anderson on Getting Lost in George R.R. Martin's World
Briefly

Paul W.S. Anderson dedicates over seven years to adapt George R.R. Martin's 'In the Lost Lands,' inspired by his wife Milla Jovovich's passion for fantasy. The film features Gray Alys, a witch in a postapocalyptic world blending medieval and modern elements. Co-starring Dave Bautista as Boyce, it showcases a unique visual backdrop with retro knights and mythical creatures. Anderson's approach emphasizes original settings and new technologies, illustrating a commitment to creating immersive worlds in storytelling.
Anderson isn't a big studio guy. Even when his films have taken place in fantastical places - such as the postapocalyptic Resident Evil series or the 2021 production Monster Hunter - he's tried to find locations from which he could build out these worlds.
The film,...takes place in a postapocalyptic wasteland where the medieval collides with the modern and the mythical: There are retro crusader knights with sunglasses and sniper rifles; giant skeleton demons.
