'Final Destination Bloodlines' directors share thrill of joining franchise

Directors Stein and Lipovsky share excitement and challenges in joining the Final Destination series.

"You're part of this franchise, this history, that has touched culture. - Zach Lipovsky"

Mumbai, May 14

"Final Destination: Bloodlines" directors Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky have expressed their excitement about joining the franchise, which began in 2000.

Lipovsky said that the most thrilling part of making a "Final Destination movie is that it's a Final Destination movie."

He added: "You're part of this franchise, this history, that has touched culture for the last 25 years in a way that people in their normal lives--when something out of left field happens to them--they say, 'Well, that was a Final Destination moment.'

He said it is a part of the culture of everyone who loves movies.

"And to be able to enter into that world and play in that sandbox as a filmmaker is just so exciting. Not only do you want to honor everything that's come before, but you also want to push it forward into a realm in which it hasn't been. And that's a really, really exciting challenge."

Stein said that one of the most exciting things about making Final Destination Bloodlines was all the practical effects and stunts they were able to do.

"The team, the producers, the studio were really excited to do as much of this movie practically, "right in front of our eyes," as we could. So, we built the giant restaurant... and then we blew it up," said Stein.

Lipovsky added: "Built a cabin in the woods, and then we blew it up."

The two directors said that they "blew a lot of stuff up.

"Which, when you're a filmmaker, it's just really fun to be able to do. Also, the team we got to work with was really at the top of their game--the best crew, creating the craziest stunts and effects that you can imagine in order to really bring the epic scope of this movie to life," said Stein.

Distributed in cinemas worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, the film will release in India on May 15.

Can't wait for this! The Final Destination series has always been my guilty pleasure. The practical effects sound amazing - CGI can never match that real explosion feel. Hope they maintain the same tension-building formula that made the earlier films so gripping! 🤩

As a horror movie buff from Mumbai, I'm excited but also skeptical. The franchise peaked with FD3 in my opinion. Hope these new directors don't ruin it with excessive gore and maintain the clever death sequences that made the series special. Fingers crossed!

Blowing things up practically? That's what we want to hear! After so many Marvel CGI fests, it's refreshing to know some filmmakers still value real effects. Hope they bring something new to the table though - the franchise needs fresh blood (pun intended).

The Final Destination movies always give me chills! Remember watching the first one in college and we friends would joke about "death's design" for weeks after. Hope this new one lives up to the legacy. Releasing just before summer vacations - perfect timing! 🎬

Honestly, the franchise should have ended after part 3. The last couple felt repetitive. But the directors' enthusiasm is infectious - maybe they'll surprise us. Will wait for reviews before booking tickets though. Bollywood should learn from their practical effects approach!

The cabin in the woods trope again? 😅 Hope they bring some fresh locations and scenarios. Maybe an Indian setting for one sequence would be interesting - imagine death's design working through Mumbai local trains or Delhi traffic! Now that would be terrifyingly relatable!
