“Thunderbolts*” action is realistic, “actors do their own stunts without using much green screen” | THE RIVER

Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)“Thunderbolts*”It looks like it will be a “realistic” action movie that is rarely seen in recent MCU works. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who plays the role of Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, aka “Val”, has revealed this.

Val has previously appeared in “Black Widow” (2021), “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” (2022), and the drama series “Falcon and the Winter Soldier” (2021), but her role in this work is currently limited. It's a little different than before. It is said that he is a key person who is involved in the formation of the anti-heroes team (although director Jake Schreier denies this in a meaningful way).

One of the reasons why I thought he was like Nick Fury in Thunderbolts was that Louis-Dreyfus himself took on the challenge of action scenes. He told Entertainment Weekly that he liked the “realistic” action and stunts.

“What's great about this movie is that it has a realism that goes well with the comedy. Also, I don't use green screen much.. There are no endless special effects, and the actors perform their own stunts. It has a rawness that feels like returning to the roots, so I think everyone will really enjoy it. ”

That's understandable, since most of the members of the Thunderbolts don't have any flashy superpowers. Elena Bellova (Florence Pugh), Red Guardian (David Harbour), Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), and John Walker (Wyatt Russell). Taskmaster, played by Olga Kurylenko, and Ghost, played by Hana John-Kamen, are somewhat different, but both have gained abilities through experiments, and are rather down-to-earth superpowers.

Speaking of MCU's “realistic” action, Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) comes to mind, and looking at the trailer, the tone of the action and direction seems to be similar to that movie. By the way, Dreyfuss only played an action scene in one scene, and he said, “I wanted to do more.'' “He looked cool and was wearing a cool black leather coat, so I thought it would be a good fit.”

The 2025 MCU movies will be followed by “Captain America: Brave New World” and “Thunderbolts*,” but the former features Harrison Ford's Red Hulk/Thaddeus Ross, so this one is more life-like. It looks like it's going to be a big comic book movie. This kind of gradation can also be said to be one of the charms of the MCU.

The movie “Thunderbolts*” will be released in Golden Week in 2025..
