Much Ado AboutNothing is a 2012 black as well as white American enchanting funny movie adapted for the screen, generated, and also directed by Joss Whedon, from William Shakespeare's play of the exact same name. The film stars Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, Nathan Fillion, Clark Gregg, Reed Ruby, Fran Kranz, Sean Maher, and also Jillian Morgese.

To create the movie, director Whedon developed the manufacturing workshop Bellwether Photo. The movie premiered at the 2012 Toronto International Movie Celebration and also had its North American theatrical launch on June 21, 2013.
The story of the film is largely unchanged from that of Shakespeare's original play. Distinctions consist of the modern setup, changing Conrade's sex, removing a number of bit parts and also settling others right into Leonato's assistant, as well as increasing Ursula's function by giving her a number of Margaret's scenes. In addition, the film attempts to include background to the partnership in between Beatrice and also Benedick by presenting to, in an opening scene, an early morning after they evidently rested together. Benedick swipes away quietly while Beatrice claims to be asleep.
Principal photography began mid-October 2011, [9] as well as happened at Joss Whedon's home in Santa Monica, California. [10] On the selection of location, he informed Studio 360, "First off, my other half created that residence. And I knew from the now I set foot in it that I would certainly intend to film something there. Since it's done in one location, that location educates the mood as well as the sensation and also the look of the image a lot, and also I was actually currently comfy with that said". [11] Whedon and also his better half, Kai Cole, produced the movie with their workshop Bellwether Photo. [12] [13] It was shot entirely in a black-and-white combination over a duration of 12 days, combined with cinematographer Jay Hunter. [14] Whedon shot it while on a legal getaway from the post-production of The Avengers. [15] The actors and crew were informed to maintain the task a key until manufacturing was finished. [4] They covered their last day of shooting on October 23, 2011. [16]
Whedon discussed his first interest in the project, claiming:

I focused on this idea that our ideas of charming love are produced for us by the culture around us, then escape from that is developed love, is marital relationship, is fully grown love, to escape the ideals of love that we're meant to adhere to. [4]
He elaborated on that particular view, and also stated "It's a really cynically romantic text about love, and also just how we behave, and also exactly how we're anticipated to act. It's an event, however there's something darker there too". Influenced by the revealing nature of movie, Whedon determined to infuse a reoccuring theme of sexuality, "... since it's an aesthetic tool. You can state it or you could show it. [...] There's an aspect to it, of debauchery, that was enjoyable temporarily yet after that it was just form of dark". [17] Whedon's suggestion to adapt the play for the display stemmed from having "Shakespeare readings" at his residence with several of his pals, years prior. [18]
Whedon and his DP Jay Hunter capitalized on natural lighting in order to make it really feel "extremely located", noting, "Our lights plan increased in the east and embeded in the west". [19] Utilizing mirrors, glass as well as home windows to shoot with, he discusses," [It's] something I want to do constantly, but specifically in a flick that's about lies, as well as control and misunderstandings. The even more you can warp the structure a little bit, the much more it talks to exactly what's going on". [19] The film was shot hand-held, digitally with several video cameras, commonly with a RED Legendary, and also used a Lensbaby Composer with Double Glass lens on a Canon 7D to separate certain scenes.
