Coppola sees the fall of the Roman Republic as a cautionary tale for our times, reflecting on themes of greed and political division in contemporary society.
"It’s a beautiful nightmare. It’s beautiful. But it is scary, also," says actress Aubrey Plaza, encapsulating the film’s impressionistic and poetic nature while acknowledging its complexity.
Sam Wasson explains that Megalopolis, a film filled with artistic experimentation, is not easily marketable, which has contributed to Coppola being misunderstood as a director.
The production of Megalopolis faced turmoil, including a fired visual effects crew and a challenging work environment, yet cast member Aubrey Plaza remained optimistic, stating it never felt hopeless.
