After finding great success with his Resident Evil adaptations, writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson has now set his cinematic sights on another monstrous Capcom franchise: Monster Hunter. In a new behind-the-scenes featurette provided exclusively to SYFY WIRE, Anderson explains how he embraced the customizable nature of the video games when it came to crafting his main, beast-slaying protagonist, Artemis — played by the filmmaker's frequent collaborator and real-world wife, Milla Jovovich. "She's the new character, she's the avatar for the audience, and she's their way into the world of the video game," Anderson says. "So when you play the video game for the first time, you know nothing about the world. You will follow her adventures in the same way that you would follow the adventures of your own character."
