The story in "Outlander" is quite a bit of a feeling that " Predator " (Predator) encounters " Brave heart " (Braveheart). If you are still a Viking fan, then you can't miss this film that combines modern elements with ancient features. In order to reflect the real atmosphere and atmosphere unique to the era, screenwriter and director Howard McCain (Howard McCain) chose Halifax , Nova Scotia and Newfoundland on the east coast of Canada to shoot on the spot. McCain, who was a screenwriter for the first time, wanted to create such an action film combining fantasy and horror. It also originated from when he was studying at the Film School of New York University in 1992. McCain said: "I Up to now, I still clearly remember the scene-I accidentally saw the cover of a magazine related to archaeology. On it was a large Viking ship. The content was that we reproduced it with modern technology. This big ship, and then let it sail in the waters of Newfoundland. Almost from that time, there was a thought that remained in my mind for a long time, and I wanted to create an epic story in the style of Beowulf. ,that time"The movie version of "(Lord of the Rings) hasn’t started yet, so I don’t think it is possible for a film company to buy the copyright to a script that tells the monsters of the Viking era, and then put the story idea aside for the time being. Until 1998, I found that it was still a very cool movie concept, because then we were allowed to use modern technology in the distant past, so I created a story based on Beowulf’s imagination. There is also the monster Grendel in it, and my agents love it very much, but they also told me at the same time,'Everyone hates Beowulf. 'That feeling is like forcing the audience to go to a British history class that no one likes. Later, we not only changed the name of the film, but also all the characters in it, so it became the current "Outlander". "
