Isn't his daughter a successful director herself? Why not make it a collaborative effort.

Isn't his daughter a successful director herself? Why not make it a collaborative effort. Megalopolis is supposedly a sci-fi-themed film. Sophia Coppola has no experience in that genre that I am aware of. The savage irony of this news is that for all of the flack he gave Marvel for their heavy use of green screen, he will have to scale back his ambitions to use StageCraft technology on Megalopolis in favor of using traditional green screen techniques. He fired his visual effects team in December and hired a whole team to start from scratch. He did the same thing on Dracula (1992), and that turned out well enough, but that was then, and this is now. This is a lesson in finance and humility for Coppola.

I actually feel bad about this. This might be one of his last chances to make A movie.
