The director says she's grateful to be given the chance to 'flip and pivot' between genres.
The Big Picture Gangster movies, horror flicks, rom-coms - we all know directors who specialize in these categories. Some of the most legendary names in the industry have made their bread and butter sticking to what they know best. And, while that’s perfect for many, One Piece director Emma Sullivan says that she’s happy to maneuver between a broad spectrum of storytelling.
Prior to working on Netflix’s upcoming adventure series, Sullivan was engulfed in the action-filled world of Taylor Sheridan’s Paramount+’s, Special Ops: Lioness. Where One Piece is a colorful story of treasure hunters in a live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s manga series of the same name, Lioness is a much heavier story of a U.S. Army task force.
“I’m super lucky that I don’t get approached to do the same kind of show all the time,” she says, “I think some people get stuck in the horror genre, more docky genre, and I’ve been able to kind of flip and pivot, which has been really fun.” As to how she flips between gigs, Sullivan added, “I think every show is just different in terms of the story. It’s not necessarily that I look at it like I’m gonna go into it and do something just because I want to do something.
Sullivan’s Next Projects With One Piece sailing onto Netflix just around the corner on August 31, Sullivan is already busy with her next venture. “I’m working on a feature right now,” she reveals, “I'm in Budapest in Hungary - and it’s a fantastical very out-of-the-box kind of unusual story, and then the show I did before this was very real and natural.
Starring Iñaki Godoy, Emily Rudd, Mackenyu, Vincent Regan, Taz Skylar, Jacob Romero Gibson, and Morgan Davies, One Piece docks on Netflix on August 31. Check out the trailer below.
