By “Arthur Boon Benjakul” the director said that “I picked up the script for Climbing the Spiral and reworked it this time because I felt that it resonated with me. It is a story that actually exists in Thai society, our society. And in this we have inserted our culture in many ways. Whether it’s Thai music or the art of Muay Thai In casting the actors in the story, I looked at the suitability and individuality of each person. We adjust everyone’s perspective on the matter equally. We’re not looking for big stars. But choose people who really match the roles. We look at the potential of the people who actually have to play that role. Of course, since it’s a natural remake, it probably won’t escape being compared to the old version. Coming to the present era, I think that what the audience wants has changed. But the core of the spiral remains. There are old and new cultures. How will they meet and blend together? It’s a different interpretation. And in this matter, the fact that we have the Ministry of Culture supporting it makes the Thai film industry grow and develop faster. Without being limited by movie making from marketing people. or whatever We were able to make the movie as exactly as we planned. Expect it to make action movies great again.”
Tong-Kritsana Ladpanna from the Panna Stunt Team continued that “I want to come back and make Thai action movies, Thai action movies so that they can come back again. This time it might be a different presentation. Whether it’s the story line or the action of the story. It’s said to be very exciting because we’ve seen the old version of Father’s Day. (Ajarn Panna Ritthikrai) This time Brother Arthur brought it back to do. It will be another aspect of broadcasting. Which we really want to see, and I want to give it to your father’s fans who were impressed by his father’s movie The Spiral Year before. Let’s open our minds and watch this movie together.”
Mesa-Ploypapas Khun Phrom also said in closing that “Since being offered this matter, Mae admits that she never knew about it before. So I went to consult with an elder we respected, Khun Chai Adam (M.R. Chalermchatri Yukon), and he said that the story should be accepted because it was written by Ajarn Panna Ritthikrai. So I tried to find information and received it. This story Personally, I think working with this group feels very good. Everyone is equal There is no division between being a star and being a stuntman. You are extra Or are you a team member? Everyone works and respects each other very much. At first, I said that I was secretly under pressure and didn’t dare call myself a heroine. Because it was the first time I acted in the lead role. We have to let go of that pressure by not thinking of ourselves as a heroine. But we are On, we have to unlock it and we have to do our best in On’s role, that’s all.”
