No, I, no.

Generally, I would say not.

I think if you're gonna have a dog, it needs to be, and it's gonna be digital, it's gonna be done.

I liked the dog in Superman.

Thank you, David.

Thank you, David.

Happy to be here.

Yeah, you know, animals have been part of cinema since cinema's history, since cinema's prehistory.

If you think about something like the photographer Edward Muybridge's images of horses, dogs, any animal that you can think of in motion to try to figure out, you know, what is their gait?

You know, there's a whole story about Muybridge and why he started that series.

But animals in motion, live animals on screen has been there since the beginning.

But there is a big displacement of live animal actors with computer-generated ones, with ones that are created by super talented, amazing visual effects artists.

And

This has been true.
