Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on an obscure 1905 comic strip, Little Nemo in Slumberland, which basically invented the 'kid travels to dream world' trope. You're welcome, every movie ever.
Francis Lawrence directed Hunger Games and now this—apparently his entire career is 'girls in impossible situations.' The throughline is stronger than you'd think.
