In the Tall Grass’s Vincenzo Natali on his long history with Stephen King, and his hopes for the Canadian film industry GlobeArts

, though, Natali’s name will seem familiar as a hired gun who’s not a hired gun at all – even when realizing other showrunners’ visions, Natali brings his own sleek and sharp and supremely creepy sensibilities to the table.

Netflix is so insanely organized that they have certain call dates set up for myself and my team to tell us how it's doing. So they wait a week or two and give us all the data. It's a wait-and-see moment right now. This isn’t a big-budgeted movie, but Netflix is very concerned about quality. They were the first company to ever come to me and ask, “Do you need more days to shoot?” I’ve totally drunk the Netflix Kool-Aid. If you speak to any other filmmaker who works with them, you’ll get a similar response. They are really deferential to filmmakers, and they have the resources to do things that Hollywood won’t do any more.

Yeah, it kind of is actually. As I get older, I realize how insanely lucky I am. I was doing some research recently and there was a study that aggregated all the films made in the past 70 years and found that only 35 per cent of directors ever get to make a second film, and a very small percentage get to make five films in their career. I realized I'm in the very small percentile.
