Director Charlie Nguyen wants to make a movie from a comic book work

Director Charlie Nguyen said that through the comic creation contest, he wants to find creative faces and good works to adapt into movies.

On July 30, at the cultural exchange event Manga comic con Vietnam 2023 (Comics and Multi-genre Entertainment), director Charlie Nguyen announced the second season of the comic creation contest called Comink.

As a judge and co-founder of the contest, director Charlie Nguyen said that Vietnam is currently the place to consume and process many international comics and webcomics. So he wants to bring an attractive and practical playground for everyone to freely express their creativity.

“We need to nurture our passion for storytelling and create unique entertainment products. It’s time for Vietnamese young people to be present as storytelling artists, not just consumers or processors. I believe that Vietnamese people are just lacking a playground, not lacking good stories,” said director Charlie Nguyen.

In particular, the director of the movie Teo em said that through this contest, he hopes that he and his colleagues can find unique stories to adapt into movies or television series, the way that studios do. Big movies in Hollywood and Japan have been and are being made.

“I believe that those who love comic books know very well which cinematic works originate from comic books and have great success around the world. So now is the time to start the journey to create that miracle”, director Charlie Nguyen expressed.

Meanwhile, filmmaker Paul Brenner affirmed his desire to connect comic book creators to digital platforms so that the authors’ works are better known, helping them build their personal brands. Multiply and earn money from your passion.
