Directors Werner Herzog and Clive Oppenheimer joined Variety’s virtual studio presented by Canada Goose to discuss their documentary film “Fireball: Visitors From Darker Worlds” premiering at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival.
When asked about directing Baby Yoda in “The Mandalorian,” Herzog responded, “I tried to tell the humans who couldn’t see exactly what I saw. And I said, ‘here’s the light. Our torch light is going right in its eyes. It should close its eyes,’ and, of course, bang — they closed [Baby Yoda’s] eyes.”
