Roland Emmerich: ‘Very Overbearing’ James Cameron Is Why I Dropped Out of Fantastic Voyage Remake

Filmmakers Roland Emmerich and James Cameron did not see eye-to-eye on the long-in-development remake of Fantastic Voyage.

, Emmerich opened up about his experiences working with Cameron on the film years ago. Emmerich didn’t hold back, calling Cameron “very overbearing” before saying he simply gave up on the project after a certain point.

“James Cameron is very overbearing, and so I, at one point, just gave up,” Emmerich said. “Because it’s like, ‘Is it your movie or my movie?’ “We were in very beginning stages. Because I said, ‘Gosh, why is he so overbearing?’ I have to say, I do my stuff, and when I can’t do my stuff, I’m totally not interested. As simple as that. So when somebody else wants to say something to me and is more powerful than me, I drop out.”Fantastic Voyage is a 1966 sci-fi movie that starred Stephen Boyd and Raquel Welch.

As of this year, Cameron has said that he still plans to make the remake at some point, although it’s unclear if or when it will ever make its way out.Anthony Nash has been writing about games and the gaming industry for nearly a decade.
