In an uncommon departure from the press junket/press conference procedural norm for major studio releases, 20th Century Fox took a more immediate and intimate approach for The Maze Runner, Wes Ball's highly anticipated feature film adaptation of the first novel of James Dashner's popular young adult science fiction series. Immediately following a private screening of the movie at the Little Theatre on the Fox studio lot on the morning of Friday, August 22, Dylan O'Brien (Thomas), Will Poulter (Gally), Kaya Scodelario (Teresa), Thomas Brodie Sangster (Newt), and Ki Hong Lee (Minho)--nearly all of principal young actors who play the principal "Gladers" (Aml Ameen, who plays leader Alby, was the lone absentee due to his filming duties on another project)--took part in a lively panel discussion that was inverse of their screen counterparts' central predicament of being trapped in a mysterious wilderness surrounded by a giant, constantly shifting maze. As one can see and hear in the video below, their natural and effortless rapport with each other is just as strongly apparent off screen as it is on.
The Maze Runner opens in cinemas nationwide this Friday, September 19, from 20th Century Fox.
