1. SOUNDBITE (English) Ben Stiller, director/executive producer – on "Severance" being an example of successful, original storytelling:
"It’s a time right now in the business where brand, IP, sequels, you know, people aren’t really taking a lot of chances in terms of at the movies. I think on television they’re taking more chances. I think the more we support independent cinema, original stories both on television and at the movies, it’s incredibly important because, you know, that’s where the excitement comes, the innovation comes. People want to see something new. All of these franchises and things all started as an original idea at one point. And that’s just like an economics thing where people don’t want to take the chance. But the more that they do and they get rewarded by having something that breaks out, I think that that example is important and hopefully we’ll see it happen more."
