My Take
Josh Boone is a filmmaker I keep an eye on. The Fault in Our Stars proved he can handle young love and illness without tipping into mawkishness, which takes a sharp observational eye. That he then reached for the horror-tinged New Mutants shows a restless appetite for range. Coming out of Virginia Beach to direct globally distributed features is no minor climb. What I value most is his evident affection for source material; directors who adapt with care, rather than condescension, are worth following. I find myself genuinely curious about whatever he chooses to make next.
