Jon Watts expressed his disappointment in Apple, stating, "I no longer trusted [Apple] as a creative partner." This marked a significant shift in his relationship with the tech giant.
Watts described the abrupt change in strategy as a "total surprise" and highlighted the lack of communication, saying, "It was made without any explanation or discussion."
Watts felt that Apple used the news of a sequel to spin their strategy, noting, "They ignored my request and announced it in their press release anyway, seemingly to create a positive spin to their streaming pivot."
The director stated, "I was completely shocked and asked them to please not include the news that I was writing a sequel," which indicated his frustrations with Apple's handling of the project.
