Skogafoss used to be the assistant to one of the principals for this film a few years ago. She was trying to hold out until it got produced but it was too slow a process so she moved on. We did however get to meet Philip Pullman at a speaking engagement and she spoke to him on many occassions during the script and screenplay process.
We both recall discussing the ideas that we being tossed about on how they were to deal with the God aspects, and were amazed at just how much they were removing from the initial drafts.
All in all, I see this trailer playing all the time now. I'm a bit tired of it since they announced the different licensing groups and products but I am excited to see the movie.
I recently finished the last book after only having listened to the Philip Pullman read audiobooks.
