Bobby Cannavale talks VFX issues on Ant-Man
Bobby Cannavale has been talking about his involvement in Ant-Man, and has revealed that he found the VFX scenes a little difficult to get his head around during filming.
Cannavale plays the new husband of Paul Rudd’s ex-wife (Judy Greer), and while the actor took to the domestic scenes like a duck to water, some of the superhero stuff was a little harder to get to grips with…
“I’d ask ridiculous questions all the time,” the actor tells . “Peyton Reed, he just kept saying, ‘Dude, just do it.’ But I’d say, ‘I don’t understand. Does the mask go up this way or this way?’ And there’s a visual effects guy there and I want an answer.”
“They got so tired of my questions: ‘So I don’t understand - If I was just over there, how did I get over here so quick?’ Reed would be like, ‘Cannavale, it’s a superhero movie, dude. Just do it!’ But I’d say, ‘Yeah, but do I have superhuman speed, because I was just three blocks away and now I’m here and I’m not even out of breath. Should I be out of breath?’”
“He’d be like, ‘Dude, it’s not The Unbearable Lightness Of Being. It’s just fucking Ant-Man. Just say the line.’ Then it just became a joke. I had a blast. We laughed so much on that thing.”
Directed by Reed and co-starring Michael Douglas and Evangeline Lilly, Ant-Man will open in the UK and US on 17 July 2015.
