Steven Soderbergh, the director of "The Christophers," has been in talks with Ed Solomon, the writer of the film, about his creative journey and the artistic anxieties that the film explores. The film follows a past-his-prime painter (Ian McKellen) and his assistant, Michaela Coel, who he hires to destroy priceless works of his half-finished art. The conversation also included Sodbergh's thoughts on AI's potential and his refusal to abandon a project on "Star Wars." He also mentioned his relationship with Solomon and the creative process behind the film.
