Damien Chazelle explains how Spike Jonze ended up in Babylon.
Director Damien Chazelle’s latest film, Babylon, has quickly earned a reputation for its fever-dream feel and depiction of overindulgence in an unbridled period of Hollywood. Set during a turn in cinema as the silent era gave way to talkies, the movie follows a trio of stars who are all experiencing this transition at different points in their careers.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY During a special screening and Q&A moderated by Collider’s Editor-in-Chief, Steve Weintraub, we asked how Jonze ended up in the so-to-speak director’s chair. According to Chazelle, Strassberger was a difficult part to get cast, saying those in mind were either unavailable or simply “couldn’t make it work.” In the end, it was Chazelle’s wife and Babylon producer, Olivia Hamilton, who suggested they ask the Her director.
In the years-long duration of getting Babylon to the big screen, Chazelle recalls this particular element as “one of the funnier casting wrinkles of the process.”
