00:00In this job, you've got to know where to put the camera and John Matheson always delivers.
00:06John did the original Gladiator. He did an incredible job. So I wanted him back.
00:11The photography in this film is absolutely extraordinary.
00:14John kept it tied to the visual language of the first but expanding it beyond that.
00:18He's so confident in placing so many cameras in different places to catch an action from start to finish.
00:26What he did with navigating a camera crew that's probably the size of most film crews on a normal film was a sight to behold.
00:33Nothing John does is by chance. He puts context into every moment and makes it interesting.
00:41What he delivers is so unbelievably dynamic. It's a testament to him and Ridley building a vision of this film.
