Producer Ralph Winter on Fantastic Four & Purpose-Driven Life

(Filed under: Movie News)

Ralph Winter, the producer behind such hits as X-Men and X2 talks about the continuing X-Men saga, the new Fantastic Four movie, and an upcoming project, a movie version of pastor Rick Warren's best-selling book, A Purpose-Driven Life.

Currently Winter is the development stage with A Purpose-Driven Life, trying to come up with a script loosely based on one or a few of the book's princples.

He also talks about the growing role of Christians in Hollywood and why some Christian efforts haven't worked:

[Christians] want to dot every ‘i’ and cross every ‘t’ and make sure it’s uber-clear what’s happened by the end of the story. We’ve lost the ability to create mystery and wonder.

Movies are not good at giving answers. Movies are great at asking questions. Movies that do that are lasting.
