The Magic Flute Synopsis
From Executive Producer Roland Emmerich (Moonfall) comes a captivating film that follows a teen on two journeys: one into a prestigious boarding school to fulfill his aspirations as a singer, and another into a parallel world filled with fantasy and adventure. Tim (Jack Wolfe) has been dreaming his whole life about attending Mozart All Boys Music School, but already his first days there confront him with a hostile headmaster (F. Murray Abraham), the stresses of a first love, and serious doubts about the authenticity of his singing voice. When he discovers a mystical gateway in the school’s library, he is pulled into the fantastic cosmos of Mozart’s opera, The Magic Flute, where imagination has no limits and the Queen of the Night (Sabine Devieilhe) reigns.
In our interview, Jack talks about using the original source material of The Magic Flute for research and preparation, and diving into a movie with many elements including classical music, fantasy and adventure. Jack also discusses the excitement of joining season 2 of Netflix’s Shadow and Bone as Wylan and goes into detail about his audition process.
