The images will be made available to you soon! But before then, here is a quick run down of all the wonderful features to do with the eva movie in the latest issue of Animé insider.
The production images. Yes, all NEW images as promised.
Image 01: This is a panoramic view of NERV’s Evangelion Unit Hangar Bay, much like the image already seen, it shows Unit 1 with what looks like a partly disfigured horn. In the distance is another tank containing an unknown object that does not look like an eva unit. The image is also scattered with NERV employees going about their daily jobs.
Image 02: Another shot of Unit 0, it looks similar to the animé version although aspects of it have been modified to look more biomechanical (e.g. muscular, skelital).
Image 03: Here is our first shot of Rei Ayanami. The image shows her plugsuit; Eva is written on the chest plate and various small details have been changed from the animé version. We can also see Rei’s face and her appearance is of an Asian nature.
As for the interview with Executive producer Matthew Greenfield, here are the details we now know:
The script, which Greenfield took time out of his honeymoon to work with, is being shown around to various parties in order to bring more staff and crew into the project — even though the script is a very first draft and will most likely change drastically (depending on the director).
The story will be self-contained and if successful, will make way for sequels. Greenfield used Matrix Reloaded as an example of what he is trying to avoid creating. As for current concept art production, Weta have 12 artists going at it. This movie could take forever to produce and we may not get to see it until 2010. But let’s hope not.
