This is a good thing, mixing culture to make something new, something no one has ever seen. This is kind of a new history.
Hiroyuki SanadaI think it's very hard to direct foreign language actors, but Carl Rinsch found a great way. A special super visional way.
Hiroyuki SanadaWhen i've done camera test, after we've shot and I've seen the monitor with the glasses (wearing a Kimono) and looking by myself in 3D. Oh my god. Especially for a Samurai film. I've never seen that. It's kind of a culture shock.
Hiroyuki Sanada47 Ronin is a very special movie for me. Not only a Samurai thing. Not only a Hollywood fantasy. It has a very special mixture between Japanese traditional culture and Western culture for the costume, set, story. Everything. I believe it will be a very special film that no one has ever seen.
