Producer Namit Malhotra (Prime Focus, DNEG) emphasized the film's groundbreaking technical ambition at the World Audio Visual Entertainment Summit earlier this year. "The way we want to go about it is to make it feel local to people in the world," Malhotra stated. He revealed plans to utilize advanced technology for seamless localization: "We are trying to make sure... it should play in English with lip sync without subtitles or dubbed versions... It should be in Spanish; it should be in Japanese in Japan." This suggests sophisticated performance capture or AI-driven dubbing for authentic global distribution.
