According to Bright director David Ayer, though Netflix is willing to put up a studio-sized budget, there are big differences between working with the streaming service and working with a traditional Hollywood outfit.
Netflix is diving head first into big-budget Hollywood-style filmmaking with their sci-fi action film Bright starring bona fide mega-star Will Smith.
It is also a little different in the first days when theater came to film, so it is like that.”
Without taking a direct shot, Ayer seemed to offer up a criticism of the traditional studio approach to filmmaking exemplified by Warner Bros. while singing the praises of Netflix.
