Having the Matt Reeves & Zoe talking as the veteran & new filmmaker after being director and star in their last project is such an intriguing concept imo.
Idk why but it's super wholesome seeing Matt Reeves be like a proud parent talking to Zoe about her first time directing. Must be cool seeing someone you cast really take notes from your approach and apply it to their own work, great conversation
It's so cool to see Matt in awe with Zoe's work as director. A veteran filmmaker being so curious about a new filmmaker technics shows lots of wiseness.
Matt Reeves style of approach to writing where he visualizes scenes as he’s writing is such a great way to go about it. It’s a good way to have a level of preparation in mind for when you actually go and make it. I do love how this episode is the veteran learning from the newbie and the newbie essentially learning from the veteran. They’ve also worked together already, and I think that this makes for a great pairing.
this is probably the best team up you guys made...they have a lot of connected tissue between their carrers at the moment and it brings such a cool dynamic...apprentice and master...and now they´re both masters...and will soon work again with that new layer...so cool
This was outstanding. What really comes across is Matt Reeves capacity for leadership. Not a lot of directors at that level are good at developing younger talent - like Zoe - and helping them build their skill sets. Taking her notes on character, letting her watch the daily's, being a sounding board for her own directorial debut. Really impressive.
i couldn’t be happier with this episode omg ZOE KRAVITZ YOU DESERVE TO BE ON THAT CHAIR!!!! BLINK TWICE WAS AMAZING AND DON’T LET ANYBODY TELL YOU OTHERWISE 🗣️🗣️🗣️
I'm even more excited for Part II than if it just straight from to the sequel from the excellent first film. This world & crime saga Reeves & Co are cooking is truly epic.
@@fergalrh She mostly wrote the first & last episode but credit goes to her for the amazing work on those two and showrunning the rest of the show as someone relatively new to the job as well as the rest of the writing team.
@psyifinotic I think it's very possible, especially with how the finale of penguin name dropped her. If anything she might get a B plot storyline in the second season of the penguin
Matt does talk alot but he knows what he's talking about. He did such a phenomenal job with The Batman, while Nolan made Batman live in a real world, Reeves made a Batman graphic novel movie. Any shot in that movie was like a graphic novel and every shot was a piece of art that could be hung on a wall. Like everyone else I'm excited for The Batman Part II, but if he's taking his time to get the story right then I respect him for that. He does not want to mess this up. I have been a huge fan of Zoe Kravitz and her portrayal of Catwoman was fantastic, she looked like she stepped out of the comic book pages. Her directorial debut was definitely a dark but powerful movie. I'm intrigued to see where she goes forward as a director if she decides to do more. Zoe looks so like both her mum and dad it's uncanny. Hopefully she returns for The Batman Part II. Get on it Matt Reeves.
@damien1781 I'll take Zoe as Selina in either The Penguin or The Batman Part II. Or even better get Cristin Milioti in The Batman Part II. Need to see these two share the screen together.
In some ways, Reeve’s adaptation is more larger than life but still more ‘grounded’ than Nolan’s too. Such as every gadget having its own potential to have been created in a workbench.
Blink Twice is one of the best films of the year. I t's clever, exciting, twisty, gripping, funny, and it has food for thought. I was really impressed by Kravtiz's writing and directing skills. What a talent. Also, I feel like the topic of the movie is scaring off a lot of men in Hollywood, which is why it's not getting as many awards as it should be! Hits too close to home.
@@Largentina. Most awards for 2024 have already taken place (e.g., Venice, AFI, National Board of Review) or well underway (Golden Globes, Critics Choice, etc), and Blink Twice only got a few nominations. Meanwhile, films like Wicked, The Brutalist and The Substance got dozens. These so-called precursor awards are a telltale sign if a movie will appear at the Oscars. By the looks of them this year, Blink Twice isn't going to be there come Oscar night.
him doing it with his wife and they both talk about challengers and past lives and how to write two different love triangle type stories god i need that
I think there's a chance she might not return until the third film given Part II picks up shortly after the original & The Penguin & they just had a dramatic goodbye scene.
Interesting the section about Matt taking so long to write. I know there's been some frustration about the amount of time it's taking to write the Batman 2 but I hope that once it's released we'll realise why, let the man cook.
Tbf, we think of him taking too long but it was just officially announced last year & Matt Reeves had just begun writing before the strikes slowed things down & eventually led to the film being delayed when it would've been otherwise on track for 2025. And now we're hearing it's filming next Spring so there's still progress.
@pacumulos A Catwoman series is something I'm sort of surprised hasn't been announced already given she's such an obvious candidate of Batman's supporting cast for a spin-off & the tease with Selina going over to Bludhaven + now with her reaching out to Sofia at the end of The Penguin.
Carried away? Lol. Even if she was a no-name, its a pretty accomplished debut. It's not like Taylor Swift being interviewed for Directors on Directors having only made a short film. Also, Zoe's worked with a lot of greats, sponged up a lot, and its gotten good notices. In general: You don't want Citizen Kane as your first, nor do you want Plan 9 From Outer Space. Something right in the sweet spot - promising, lots of potential, nails most of it, some growth areas, but overall good. Furthermore, have you directed a first film?
@@area51picturesPeople thought it was silly that Taylor was in the lineup. Also your last question doesn’t make any sense cos the guy you’re replying to isn’t on the show

Bruh what simp exec let Lenny kravitz daughter direct something
Trust me he dosent take her serious
@@oscarcruz5989 Movie was pretty good. Not amazing but def not bad
The chemistry and joy these two have for each other and the filmmaking process is wonderful to watch.

Yeah i noticed that too
Superman teaser trailer and variety with matt reeves and zoe , what a day for dc fans!
Trailer doesn't come out until tomorrow.
@@RyanG0899 There was a 30 sec teaser today , the proper/2nd teaser will come tmorrow and will be 2:20 minutes long
Ik bro
New Superman movie will be ass
@@Jaythesparrow congrats guys , we found a snyder fan right here , now tell me , why will it be ass , cuz of 'colour grading ' , get a life buddy
Someone needs to tell Matt that he is not just the interviewer here, he needs to be interviewed too.
I'm here just for Matt Reeves talks, not too fussed about the other chick.
🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻
@@uahmed2042This other chick? They literally start off the interview talking about The Batman...a movie she was in..
@@ShaunMilesTV
Yes, I know she's Catwoman
It’s way better like this when it’s a conversation rather than a question, reply, question, reply.
i couldn’t be happier with this episode omg ZOE KRAVITZ YOU DESERVE TO BE ON THAT CHAIR!!!! BLINK TWICE WAS AMAZING AND DON’T LET ANYBODY TELL YOU OTHERWISE 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Blink Twice is quite a phenomenal debut.
i could listen to reeves talk about batman for HOURS
Facts
Same
Real
The Penguin was such a masterpiece of a show. I really can't wait for Reeve's Batman sequel!!!
I'm even more excited for Part II than if it just straight from to the sequel from the excellent first film. This world & crime saga Reeves & Co are cooking is truly epic.
Same🦇
Yeah, Lauren LeFranc wrote the shit out of that show!!
@@fergalrh She mostly wrote the first & last episode but credit goes to her for the amazing work on those two and showrunning the rest of the show as someone relatively new to the job as well as the rest of the writing team.
If it ever comes out bruh i would have made 5 movies until now wtf
I love this pair up so much
Matt Reeves pretty much just interviewing Zoe Kravitz lmao
I think it's so nice. He's like a proud father, an already successful director, so he lets a first time director to have her moment. Very gentle.
Incredible conversation. I could listen to them geek out over directing, all day. I'm glad someone thought to pair them up for this.
Gosh they bounce off each other so well. Truly fascinating conversation
Zoë Kravitz needs to be back as Catwoman, she's great
Can't wait to see what Zoe Kravitz has in store next as well as the Batman part 2
you think she’ll be in it? i mean she’s already established…i’d love her to come back from bludhaven. maybe mention how she saw an orphan there
@psyifinotic I think it's very possible, especially with how the finale of penguin name dropped her. If anything she might get a B plot storyline in the second season of the penguin
@@asta4486THE PENGUIN IS NOT GETTING A SECOND SEASON. IT DOESN’T NEEEED ANOTHER SEASON! If that should go anywhere it should be its own show
I think this might be my favourite conversation yet because of Reeves' inquisitive questions.
This is absurdly wholesome. These two have such a great dynamic for a video like this

Hopefully she returns for The Batman Part II. Get on it Matt Reeves.
There’s no way she won’t be in Batman II she’s an intricate part of the story and I also bet she’ll be in penguin season 2 due to the ending .
@damien1781 I'll take Zoe as Selina in either The Penguin or The Batman Part II. Or even better get Cristin Milioti in The Batman Part II. Need to see these two share the screen together.

If you haven’t seen blink twice it’s incredible and genuinely should have Oscar buzz for original screenplay.
Definitely should have buzz for the screenplay, the pacing and tone of that story are so good.
i went to the Q&A for Blink Twice in brooklyn and am delighted to get an extra dip further into that brilliant film, PLUS Batman! ty both!
“Blink Twice” is a proper horror movie. I thought it was absolutely terrifying because of how much that stuff happens in real life.
One of the better discussions this year

The awards for 2024 haven't happened yet. We have no idea if it's getting more or less awards than any other 2024 film.
@@Largentina.

they should do a Writers on Writers series. I wanna listen to Justin Kuritzkes talking about Challengers and Queer writing process
Yes
him doing it with his wife and they both talk about challengers and past lives and how to write two different love triangle type stories god i need that
This is such solid gold!
Im listened to this in the car and zoned out and I thought Matt Reeves was Micheal Cera😭
I always like how two directors talk about making movies
so so happy to see them talk about the importance of the editing process!!
What a great interview. I really loved how he was just as engaged in understanding her perspective and thought process as she was with his.
I look forward to this series every year. Another great one
I love Matt reeves. He is seriously the most underrated director of all time
The Batman Part 2 can't come soon enough
Aw Matt seems like such a sweet person. Zoe too ❤
Matt Reeves and Zoe Kravitz. I wish I could like this more than once.
The Peak Part II....Still waiting
8:59 - the amount of suspense was used both wonderfully and essentially well
They should do Reeves and Nolan next year. Thst would be HYPE.
They're both releasing movies in 2026 so hopefully they do one that year
@@ElricZnot anymore in the case of Reeves, sadly
What a great pairing! Love it!!!
I could hear Matt Reeves & Zoe talk forever ❤
that was so cute!!! They just a great conversation between super talented people
Her Catwoman needs to comeback in Part II!
I think there's a chance she might not return until the third film given Part II picks up shortly after the original & The Penguin & they just had a dramatic goodbye scene.
We dont know whats in that letter selina sent though. That could play a part in her returning@@themadtitan7603
Great conversation, love both of them 👌🏽 Can’t wait for their future projects 👊
Zoe, you can make more movies.
YES THE BATMAN REUNION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a divorce
Matt Revees could've played the role of Commissioner Gordon himself😂
Got so excited to see this
Very good interview
i love both of them. i love let you in. i love Selina Kyle.
ZOE IS A GREAT ACTRESS!
0:22 “oh okay” that was smooth
i loooooooove matt and zoe. he's an icon and she's on her way
Matt reeves and Zoe Kravitz the G.O.A.T.S
Zoë Isabella Kravitz is so beautiful and talented.
💘💘
Blink Twice is a harrowing masterpiece, Kravitz is a killer director
I really love how its 2024 and we’re still talking about The Batman 🔥
OfficerMartinez sent me here
goated twitter account
I love this interview
Aww, very cute to have this pairing.
When people use the word "vibing" they mean this
Matt looking sharp asf
I'd like a Catwoman series. I loved the penguin series. But I fear for a second season. Because it worked perfectly as a miniseries.
@pacumulos A Catwoman series is something I'm sort of surprised hasn't been announced already given she's such an obvious candidate of Batman's supporting cast for a spin-off & the tease with Selina going over to Bludhaven + now with her reaching out to Sofia at the end of The Penguin.
this is so important to me
I really like matt reeves especially after delivering the best series this year the penguin. I wish he worked with zack snyder in bvs as a writer.
ZOE WAS GREAT AS CATWOMAN!
Shes brilliant and beautiful. My kind of women.
I’d love a catwoman show like Fincher’s The Killer
Same co-starring Cristin Milioti's Sofia Falcone. I'm still surprised this isn't one of the announced spin-offs already.
If the writing process for the Batman 2 is currently slow, that means matt CARES. He’s in the kitchen cooking!
Man i cannot believe they didn't talk abt Batman 2!! 😭😭
matt reeves🖤🦇
THE BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
5:38 “is that right?!” bro is so smooth, this is why the batman is dope
ZOE!!! 🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛
really disappointed dev patel wasn’t included in any of these. you got zoe kravitz but not dev ? he starred and directed his own movie !!
I haven't seen Blink Twice.
You should, with a best friend. It's a stomach clenching horror film, mind the disclaimer at the very beginning of it
Zoe looks just like Lisa, wow. I don't see Lenny at all!
I see more of Lenny in her then Lisa.
We need timecodes!)
Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right
Yeah. Mmhmm. 😂
Variety please do the writer on writer season.
The Cat and The Matt.
Catwoman 😊❤❤
Batman 2 will hit so hard
I got something to tell you buddy
Riveting deep dive ✨
Matt looks like Commissioner Gordon.
I just realized that Michael Cera talks just like Matt Reeves 😅
I thought that was Gary Oldman
just give me any news about the batman 2 man i really need it
They are filming next year in the spring . He’s finishing the script as we speak !
Delayed again unfortunately
She has one, single, directing credit. Let’s not get carried away here.

She's a director, and it's really interesting that the fact that she is bothers you enough to leave this comment
Where is the batman 2 instead of of this interview ?????
The batman sequel is dope
Nice interview. He should’ve let finish her sentences though lol
25:24
0:30, 4:00
Zoe is a Director?
Somebody please tell matt reeves to focus on Batman 2 it's getting delayed every year😂
He’s finishing the script now . They film next year .
Zoe 😍
