They created symbolic objects, had a complex language, and buried their dead \u2013 they were our equals. There was a lot of discussion about how our superior culture or language or creativity could be matched by <strong>Neanderthals<\/strong>, but they died out. You know history is written by the living and maybe pre-history too. I thought what if they died out because they were better than us? What if they were more virtuous than us? What if this special characteristic that we congratulate ourselves on is really a sinister quality. That was the essence of the idea. From that, I started crafting a personal story.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11425\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11425\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11425\" src=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/William-and-Neanderthal.jpg\" alt=\"William looks at a 35,000 year-old preserved Neanderthal\" width=\"850\" height=\"549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/William-and-Neanderthal.jpg 850w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/William-and-Neanderthal-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/William-and-Neanderthal-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/William-and-Neanderthal-768x496.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11425\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">William looks at a 35,000 year-old preserved Neanderthal whose DNA flows through his veins.<\/span> Photo: Richard Hubbs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong><em>Would you characterize William as a cautionary tale?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: Not primarily. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s principally about the science, or even the ethics of the science, although that\u2019s certainly a theme within it. I think it\u2019s a personal story. I think it\u2019s a family story. I think it\u2019s a story about otherness and the difficulty of being different in a hostile world.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>A metaphor for social disorders?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: I think so. But also beyond that it\u2019s about emerging adults and the difficulty they have in individuating from their parents. I think it\u2019s a universal story in that respect.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>How did you go about casting William?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: Well, it was hard. We had to have a great actor and that was the most important quality. We also needed someone who would have physical plausibility as a <strong>Neanderthal,<\/strong> who were shorter and stockier than us and had different proportions. Casting a tall, skinny person, no matter how great an actor he was, would be difficult.\u00a0 We met a lot of really wonderful people but when <strong>Will<\/strong> came in the door, we knew he was the guy.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Just by his looks?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: Yes. He\u2019s formerly a personal trainer and football player so he was very fit. In preparation for the film, he spent months bulking up by working out every day, lifting weights and eating only <strong>4,000<\/strong> calories daily. I was very cautious about overplaying his physicality. I never wanted to get into farce and I didn\u2019t want to make him superhuman. He couldn\u2019t lift a car or anything like that. The day before filming began he took me aside and said, \u201cI\u2019ve been working out for three months. I\u2019m taking my shirt off in the movie.\u201d\u00a0 <strong><em>(Laughs<\/em>)<\/strong> So we wrote in some scenes that displayed his efforts.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Did he have an acting background?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: He did a bunch of small parts but was not a big name. I had seen him in a movie called <strong><em>Everybody Wants Some!!,<\/em><\/strong> a <strong>Richard Linklaetter<\/strong> film, and he had a small part in <strong><em>King Kong<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11423\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11423\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11423\" src=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Maria-Dizzia.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Maria-Dizzia.jpg 850w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Maria-Dizzia-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Maria-Dizzia-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Maria-Dizzia-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11423\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Maria Dizzia plays William\u2019s scientist\/mother.<\/span> Photo: Richard Hubbs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong><em>How did you begin the process?\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: I\u2019m a collaborative person. These lower budget movies are more difficult to make than big budget films because you don\u2019t get a lot of rehearsal time and there\u2019s no room for errors or recovery. We started with a traditional table read followed by many conversations so that we were generally in sync with whom these characters were and how they would interact. So, we had a good understanding before we hit the set. That said, I also like to plan. I\u2019m too nervous to wing it. Everything always changes and you have to be flexible, but I like to have a roadmap.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>During the shoot, did the script go through any changes? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tim: We started with what was on the page but in the moment you always adapt to what\u2019s working or what\u2019s not working.
