I'm looking for an interview with John Carpenter where he says the 2002 video game The Thing is canon to the series.

I’m looking up fan theories again and keep coming across the claim that John Carpenter in an interview has said the 2002 video game is canon to his 1982 movie, but out of literally dozens of references I have not come across a single link or article quoting John Carpenter yet.

Is there anyone obsessed with this game or the movie who knows what interview I’m talking about?

Thanks for your help

Oh I see. Other than reddit and now lemmy, I didn’t get into other social media. It’s all right though, thanks
