Alexander Skarsgård

[VampFan]

Tku for the Tarzan promo stills Now if only I could hear Skarzan's voice Never happy am I? lol

----------

I also am waiting for a trailer with him speaking. Sigh..

Discussing who and why might be doing this one thing, but that IG isn't sourcing their pics and I think not posting them, even as harmless as they may be, is probably a good idea.




Thanks for the new article and set pics. The costume and set design looks great so far, not surprising when you look at the previous work of those involved in it.

Also thanks to everyone who's been posting updates on Tarzan and WOE.
I do wish that WOE would get a US distributor.

Me, too. I keep hoping that one of these days we'll get some news on that..

Either my eyes are going (even more) or the article has been updated with a bigger version.

HQ version of a new promotional still of Alex and Samuel L. Jackson in The Legend of Tarzan (open in a new tab to see it full size).

“It is a scene that is a half an hour into the film, when Lord Greystoke went to talk to the Prime Minister to confirm his return to the Congo. Awaiting an elegant Skarsgård, white shirt and red vest and black in a long gray coat, black and shiny shoes & pants, he repeats his lines while someone adjusts his makeup and combs his long blond hair with the help of a bit 'of lacquer. A few meters away from him is Samuel L. Jackson, who plays George Washington Williams. He will convince the star to return to Africa. Once there, the villain of the moment (the Oscar winner Christoph Waltz) snatches Jane from them, thereby starting the action.”

An article about Best Movie magazine’s visit to the September 2014 set of The Legend of Tarzan will be featured in their July 2016 issue.

Alexander Skarsgard Talks ‘War on Everyone’ via Fanbolt

After his work as the sexy Eric Northman in HBO’s True Blood, Alexander Skarsgard made the decision to star in the comedy War on Everyone to break his image as everyone’s favorite blond vampire.

“To me, I was working on a television show for seven years,” Skarsgard told Complex. “We had five months off every year. Because I wasn’t known before the television show, that was the only character that people knew. It was like, ‘Oh, he’s Eric Northman.’ So people have a tendency to typecast you.

“I want to prove and show people I can do something else. It’s just like you said: why would I spend seven months shooting True Blood and then, during my hiatus, play the same character?”

Michael Pena, who costars in War on Everyone with Skarsgard, weighed in on why he doesn’t choose to do comedy projects all the time. He mixes work projects up like he would with his diet, explaining after eating pizza for so long – doing films he loves – he fancies a taco, meaning he’ll pick a different role.

He and Skarsgard had never met before filming the new project, but they bonded immediately, and their onscreen chemistry is off the scale.

“We didn’t want to make it trivial,” Pena said of their union. “(my character) Bob is so important to Terry (Skarsgard). He’s like the most important person in the world. Terry feels stupid. I’m lost without him. That’s how it feels. It’s funny and broad in many ways, but it’s also a beautiful love story between these two.”

When asked to sell the feature, Pena admitted viewers will “probably be offended”.

An LA film industry insider who is also an ERB fan managed to attend an official Legend of Tarzan test screening and has shared some private thoughts about the movie. S/he knows I will post about my conversation, minus spoilers. The source is a very reliable person who got interested in ERB after John Carter. I’m sure the following is completely accurate as to the cut that as being shown fairly recently. Small things may still change, but this is what the viewer saw.
Overall — the screening was very well-received by the audience. “People seemed to really like it.” The source did not see the scores given by the viewers when they filled out their questionnaires, but the vibe was very favorable and he heard no one speaking anything other than positive comments about it. As an industry person, the viewer was encouraged — and as an ERB fan, it was a very satisfying experience watching the movie. No doubt closer to the original than any modern attempt to adapt the book.

That looks like his hair cut from WoE. So it's probably last summer.

Alex was out and about in LA 3/23. Looks like Keith (his arm) was with him from the photos at the link.

He needs a new shirt!

 

[BuckeyeChicago]

That is a new shirt! And the newer jeans. And he loves them very very much!

Clean shaven, is the hair shorter? Perhaps he's been back on the BLL set. And here's hoping he's a WonderCon this Saturday. They've updated the WB panel info, but it's only two of the upcoming horror films that WB has. I'm going to presume they're not going to have have just two horror films for their hour of time, that would be a waste.

 

[Henares]

Thank you very much!!!!
Yes, I agree: he needs new shirts and shoes, too.
No material man. 😇

 

[Henares]

I think his hair is shorter.
Where is WoE? There aren't news about the movie... 😶

 

[Santress]

Thanks, Audio, Buckeye & Kit.

LOT has a MPAA for the US:

The Legend of Tarzan
Action / Adventure WB 7/1/16 PG-13 sequences of action and violence, some sensuality and brief rude dialogue
Sensuality and 'brief rude dialogue'?

I think I posted Rebecca Pahle's review of WOE that she did for another site, this one she did for Pajiba. The comments are fairly positive.

Do you want to see a dark comedy that opens with corrupt cops Alexander Skarsgard and Michael Pena running over a mime? Do I even need to ask you that question? Pretty sure I had you at “Alexander Skarsgard and Michael Pena.”
Fine. In case you need more information, War on Everyone is written and directed by John Michael McDonagh, whose previous films are Calvary and The Guard. Both excellent. Both starring Brendan Gleeson. (If you haven’t seen Calvary, SEE CALVARY. It features Domhnall Gleeson in a small role back when he was kindasorta in the “Take Your Son to Work Day” phase of his career. He plays a serial killer convict and is absolutely chilling.) John Michael McDonagh is, incidentally, the brother of director/playwright Michael McDonagh, the man responsible for Seven Psychopaths and Pajiba favorite In Bruges. I bring that up because if you like the fat people scene in Bruges
you will probably like War on Everyone, too. The humor is, in a word, “offensive,” with Terry (Skarsgard) and Bob (Pena) making jokes at everyone’s expense. In a SXSW post-screening Q&A, McDonagh described War on Everyone as a sort of revisionist, modern-day Western, and it’s a label that makes sense. Terry and Bob are a send-up of the dick-swingin’, machismo-obsessed cop stereotype, and War on Everyone never shies away from the fact that they are both horrible people.

The movie lives or dies on Skarsgard and Pena’s chemistry—the plot, shaggy and meandering as it is (there’s some sort of a heist gone wrong and a porn studio and also horses maybe?), basically serving as the framework for them to run around Albuquerque behaving like *******s. Luckily, they’re really good at it, and they have a natural rapport.
