After recent Olympic spectacles in Vancouver and Beijing what does director Danny Boyle plan to show the world for opening ceremony of the London Summer Olympics in 2012? Boyle gave an interview to The Sunday Telegraph revealing a bit of his vision. Boyle, who directed the films “Slumdog Millionaire” and “Trainspotting,” will be the artistic director of the opening ceremony as the leader of a team that also includes filmmaker Stephen Daldry. Boyle said that the ceremony will feature plenty of pop and rock music from Britain’s greatest musical acts. He also plans to highlight British films. Winning acts from British reality television talent competitions could also have a role in the celebration. Acknowledging that it would be difficult to top the splendor of the Beijing spectacle, Boyle is opting for intimacy over extravagance. The ceremony will take place at the 80,000-capacity Olympic Stadium in Stratford, east London, on July 27, 2012.
