In a conversation with Digital Trends, director Florian Sigl talks about combining HarryPotter with opera in his new film, TheMagicFlute.
Most first-time directors take it a bit easy with their inaugural movies. Before he chronicled rampaging dinosaurs and killer sharks, Steven Spielberg made Duel, a simple movie about a man in a car being terrorized by a truck. Florian Sigl, however, isn’t afraid to dive into the deep end of the moviemaking pool.
Florian Sigl : Well, it’s a great opportunity to bring culture and classical music closer to a broader audience, especially because The Magic Flute already uses popular fantasy tropes like an evil queen or big monsters like a giant snake. I thought with the popularity of all the other fantasy stories now, there’s a good opportunity here to adapt The Magic Flute.
It took some time for me to decide on which parts of the opera I wanted to keep and how I should integrate the music with the fantasy sequences. I was going back and forth a lot in making sure both sides fit together. I wanted to talk about Jack Wolfe, who plays the film’s main character, Tim/Prince Tamino. What was it about Jack that made him the ideal lead for this version of The Magic Flute?
