Midway: Roland Emmerich Interview

Midway: Roland Emmerich Interview For director Roland Emmerich, Midway has been a long-gestating passion project that finally hits theaters November 8th—just in time for Veteran’s Day. Its trailer only hints at the film’s epic depiction of World War II’s Battle of Midway, brought to life by a capable ensemble cast and so many dog fights, dive bombers, and battleships you’ll leave the theater ducking for cover. Known as the “Master of Disaster” for an oeuvre that includes Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow, 2012, and Godzilla, Emmerich’s straightforward take on the Battle of Midway begins at a lightning-quick pace and doesn’t let up. Midway’s capable ensemble cast—which includes Ed Skrein, Patrick Wilson, Woody Harrelson, Mandy Moore, and Dennis Quaid—hews close to history, covering an oft-neglected (in film, at least) battle in the Pacific Theater that was a critically important victory for US forces following their defeat at Pearl Harbor six months prior. Luckily this history is action-packed and filled with intrigue, and the film does a surprisingly welcome job of covering the war from both sides. Quite a bit of screen time is devoted to the hearts and minds of our heroes’ Japanese adversaries, and it’s done so with a level of respect and aplomb rarely seen in war movies. Watch our recent interview with Emmerich in the player above to learn more about his quest to bring what military historians call “the most stunning and decisive blow in the history of naval warfare” to the big screen. Below is a rundown of what we discussed. How a German director known for his disaster films wound up directing a WWII film without any Germans in it.
