Veteran filmmaker and Monty Python alumnus Terry Gilliam says President Donald Trump’s second term has upended his next project, the satire “The Carnival at the End of Days.” The picture, which was to begin shooting in April with Jeff Bridges voicing God and Johnny Depp playing Satan, will now undergo a major rewrite, Gilliam told The Hollywood Reporter. Gilliam argued that Trump has “destroyed satire,” adding that the political climate has made it difficult to lampoon current events without being overtaken by reality. The director said parts of the script, originally billed as “great fun for all of those who enjoy taking offense,” no longer land as intended. The comments come as Gilliam arrives in Italy as honorary president of the 29th Umbria Film Festival, where his dystopian black comedy “Brazil” is being shown to mark its 40th anniversary. He reflected on past creative battles with Universal Pictures over the 1985 film and noted its renewed relevance amid today’s debates over bureaucracy and censorship. While Gilliam contends studios have grown more timid and audiences more easily offended, he said he is committed to revising “Carnival” rather than abandoning it, though he offered no new production timetable.
