Thompson: thaum lub tsheb ciav hlau poob hauv online, cov lus teb tau zoo heev. Nws kis tau zoo li hluav taws kub nyhiab hauv kev tshaj xov xwm. Koj puas paub qhov ntawd?

Wirkola: Peb txhua tus xav zoo li lub trailer tiag tiag tawg rau hauv txoj kev loj. Koj tsis xav obsess ntau dhau qhov ntawd, tab sis tau kawg, kuv tau mus online, thiab kuv nyeem cov kev cuam tshuam. Hauv YouTube, muaj qhov no uas tib neeg sau lawv tus kheej ua rau qhov trailer, thiab kuv tau saib ob peb qhov, uas yog qhov lom zem heev. Kudos rau Universal rau kev txiav cov trailer vim nws xav tias zoo li nws tau ntes cov yeeb yaj kiab lub ntsiab lus, thiab cov yeeb yaj kiab tsis tas yuav ua li ntawd. Lawv ntsia nws. Thaum peb tau txais tsab ntawv ceeb toom, nws muaj ib yam dab tsi zoo li 20 lab views ntawm nplooj ntawv Universal txij li thaum nws tau tso tawm, thiab tej zaum nws yog ntau dua tam sim no, uas yog vwm heev.

Thompson: Casting nyob rau hauv no yog qhov tseem ceeb, thiab David yog zoo kawg li Santa. Puas yog nws tau txais kev ntseeg ntau dhau los ua lub luag haujlwm lossis tseem lees txais nws thawj zaug?

Wirkola: Nws yog thawj tug txiv neej uas kuv mus. Kuv paub tias nws yog ib txwm hais tias yuav tsum zoo, tab sis nws yog qhov tseeb tiag. Peb tau muaj peb lub rooj sib tham thawj zaug, peb zaum thiab mus dhau cov npe, thiab qee tus tau coj David Harbour, thiab nws yog ib lub sijhawm uas peb txhua tus zoo li, 'Yog, nws zoo tag nrho.' Peb xa nws mus rau nws, thiab nws tab tom tua NetflixNFLX
movie hauv New Orleans thaum lub sijhawm. Ironically nws yuav tsum tau tawv heev rau qhov ntawd, thiab nws tau shaved nws lub taub hau. Peb Skyped nrog nws ob hnub tom qab nws tau txais tsab ntawv, thiab nws hlub nws. Nws nkag siab lub suab uas peb tab tom sim ntaus thiab nyiam peb coj ntawm Santa Claus. David yog nyob rau hauv thaum ntxov rau thiab hnyav hnyav li peb ua. Peb tau sau dua tshiab, thiab nws xav tau nws qhov kev xav ntawm Santa thiab nws txoj kev taug kev, yog li peb muaj kev lom zem heev los tsim peb Santa thiab tailoring nws rau David.

Thompson: Kuv tsis paub tias Beverly D'Angelo nyob rau hauv no txog thaum kuv pom cov yeeb yaj kiab. Nws muaj kev cuam tshuam nrog Teb Chaws Tebchaws Lampoon's So Kev Mus Ua Si. Nws puas tau txais kev ntseeg ntau kom rov qab mus rau hauv hom ntawv?

Wirkola: Tsis yog, tsis yog kiag li. Nws nyiam zaj nkauj thiab lub luag haujlwm. Nws pom tias peb tab tom sim ua ib hom yeeb yaj kiab Christmas tshiab nrog peb cov ntug thiab kev lom zem. Nws nyiam lub tswv yim ntawm kev ua si hom ntawm tus cwj pwm hauv thawj qhov kev nthuav qhia scene, qhov twg nws taug kev rov qab mus rau hauv txoj kev, thiab peb pom thiab hnov ​​​​nws me ntsis. Yim caum feem pua ​​​​ntawm qhov kev cog lus yog nws improvising. Nws muaj qee cov lus zoo nyob rau hauv, thiab kuv zoo li, 'Auj, tsis ua li cas.' Zoo li nws yuav tuag los ua lub luag haujlwm zoo li no, nws tau puag nws thiab muaj kev lom zem nrog nws. Rau kuv, Teb Chaws Tebchaws Lampoon's So Kev Mus Ua Si yog qhov zoo tshaj plaws Christmas movie. Kuv pom nws txhua xyoo vim yog vim li cas, nws yog ib yam uas Norwegian TV ua si rau lub Kaum Ob Hlis 23. Kuv saib nws txhua zaus, thiab nws muab kuv lub siab Christmas. Beverly muaj kev nkag siab zoo ntawm lub sijhawm thiab nyiam lub tswv yim ntawm kev ua si super tsaus, tus cwj pwm tsis zoo.

Thompson: Koj paub txog kev thawb ciam teb hauv koj txoj haujlwm. Kuv yog tus kiv cua loj ntawm koj Tuag Daus zaj duab xis. Nrog Hmo Ntuj tsaus, puas muaj ib thaj tsam uas koj xav paub txog kev thawb mus deb dhau los lossis puas muaj cov neeg xav kom koj thawb ntau ntxiv?

Wirkola: Nyob rau Tuag Daus movies, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog qhov thib ob, kuv xav tias zoo li tsis muaj ib thaj tsam, thiab qhov ntawd yog ib feem ntawm qhov kev thov rov hais dua. Thaum nws los txog rau qhov no, kuv tau ua siab ncaj tias yog peb tuaj yeem tau txais lub siab ntawm cov yeeb yaj kiab zoo, cov ntsiab lus Christmas, peb tuaj yeem ua txhua yam peb xav tau rau nws. Ib zaug ntxiv, kudos rau Universal, tab sis kuv xav tsis thoob lawv cia peb ua peb li. Lawv yeej tsis hais tsis tau. Lawv tsis tau hais tias, 'Tommy, tej zaum qhov no ntau dhau lawm.' Lawv zoo li, 'Cia li mus rau nws. Sim nws.' Thawj qhov kev tshuaj ntsuam peb muaj rau Universal, qhov twg peb muaj txhua yam nyob rau ntawd, kuv paub tseeb tias peb yuav tau txais qee qhov thawb rov qab, tab sis lawv nyiam nws. Nws yog txhua yam hais txog lub suab. Yog tias koj tau txais qhov nyiaj tshuav ntawd, koj tuaj yeem tau txais txhua yam. Kuv ntseeg tias. Peter Jackson thiab Sam Raimi yog kuv qhov kev tshoov siab loj tshaj plaws rau hom no. Kuv nco ntsoov pom Tuag Tuag II thiab Kwv Huam zoo heev, pom cov yeeb yaj kiab thiab yuav ua li cas koj tuaj yeem sib xyaw ua ke siab heev thiab ntshai heev nrog luag-tawm-nruab lub sijhawm. Nws zoo li ib qho ntawm lub sijhawm qhib qhov muag rau kuv, ua rau kuv lub ntsej muag thiab kuv lub siab xav. Kuv ib txwm rov qab mus rau qhov ntawd. Saib cov yeeb yaj kiab, thiab koj yuav pom tias koj tuaj yeem ua txhua yam nrog lub suab zoo.

Thompson: Hmo Ntuj tsaus tau pib pitched li Tuag nyuaj thiab tsev Nyob ib leeg nrog Santa, thiab kuv pom qhov kuv xav tias yog ob peb nods rau qhov kev ua yeeb yam zoo nkauj classic. Ib tug ntawm lawv yog tus saib xyuas kev ruaj ntseg hu ua Al. Puas yog txhob txwm los yog coincidental thiab puas muaj ntxiv?

Wirkola: Tus neeg saib xyuas raug hu ua Al yog ib txwm nyob rau hauv tsab ntawv, yog li kuv tsis paub meej tias yog txhob txwm ua, tab sis kuv ntseeg tias nws yog. Koj kuj muaj Santa thiab Trudy tham ntawm walkie-talkies, thiab qhov no yog qhov tseeb siv rau Tuag nyuaj. Ib zaug ntxiv, nws ib txwm muaj qhov sib npaug. Koj tsis xav ua ntau dhau. Koj xav nrhiav koj tus kheej txoj kev thiab them tribute tab sis, tib lub sij hawm, muab nws ib yam dab tsi tshiab thiab ib tug tshiab spin. Tau kawg, qhov tseeb tias nws yog Santa Claus muab sijhawm rau peb. Tau kawg, kuj muaj cov tsev Nyob ib leeg ib ntus uas yog ib qho ntawm kuv nyiam. Ntxiv dua thiab, nws yog ib zaj yeeb yaj kiab uas kuv nyiam loj hlob tuaj, thiab kuv muaj sijhawm los ua qee yam vwm nrog qhov ntawd. Yog li, muaj Tuag nyuaj, tsev Nyob ib leeg, Thiab Lub caij Christmas So los ntawm qhov xwm txheej ntawm casting Beverly, thiab kuj tseem muaj ntau qhov zais easter qe nyob rau sab ntau lawm thiab cov teeb uas kuv vam tias tib neeg pom.

Thompson: Kuv pom tias muaj ib txoj kab ntawm John Leguizamo mus rau qhov kawg uas nws hais tias, 'Christmas tuag hmo no.' Puas yog a Xus Kills siv?

Wirkola: Tsis yog, qhov tseeb, nws tsis yog qhov ntawd. Kuv tau pom thawj zaug ntawm qhov tshiab Halloween movies thiab tsuas yog saib ob leeg xwb. Nws yog thaum ntawd kuv paub tias nws nyob ze rau ntau qhov ntawd, tab sis nws tsis txhob txwm ua. Nws yog lus teb rau Santa, qhov twg nws yog thaum pib ntawm zaj duab xis, thiab nws tau txiav txim siab rub lub ntsaws rau Christmas. Nws yog ntau dua ntawm kev hais lus ntawm Santa qhov twg nws yog thaum pib ntawm zaj yeeb yaj kiab, tab sis nyob rau hauv hindsight, nws muaj ntau heev. Halloween vibe.

Thompson: Thaum nws los txog rau cov yeeb yaj kiab hnub so, koj xav li cas los ua ib qho kev sib raug zoo nrog Hmo Ntuj tsaus raws li daim nqi ob? Koj puas yuav mus nrog ib txwm ua yeeb yaj kiab Christmas zoo li Txuj ci tseem ceeb ntawm 34th Street los yog ua movie zoo li Lub Ntev Npau Suav Zoo?

Wirkola: Yog, twv yuav raug hu Lub Ntev Npau Suav Zoo. Qhov ntawd yuav yog kev sib tw zoo. Qhov ntawd yog qhov kuv yuav mus.
