• Before "Deadpool 2", Josh Brolin was about to take over the role of Bruce Wayne in Zack Snyder's "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice".
  When Zack Snyder announced that he was going to make a "Batman v Superman" movie, there was a lot of speculation as to who would take over the role of Bruce Wayne / Batman.

  
   
  Henry Cavill would return as Superman after Cavill and Snyder previously collaborated on "Man of Steel". Would Christian Bale return a fourth time? Ben Affleck was fine, would it be him? Or maybe Josh Brolin? Brolin recently visited the podcast Happy Sad Confused and confirms that he was one of those whom Snyder considered for the role of Batman.
   
  - It sounded interesting to me (...) Something that is designed to either fail completely or fly high. I like those odds. Is it me who will make the film fail ?, Brolin says about "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and continues:
   
  - The idea was an older, hoarse Batman. It would honestly have been fun, and maybe something I do when I'm 80 years old.

  The role went instead to Ben Affleck who, despite the criticism of the film in general, received much praise (rightly) for his portrayal. And despite the fact that Affleck dropped out of the role after "Justice League", we will soon see him again as Batman in "The Flash" which premieres June 23, 2023.
   
  Brolin instead became successful in Marvel's universe as the time-traveling Cable in "Deadpool 2" and above all as the supervillain Thanos in "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Avengers: Endgame". So it was pretty successful anyway if you ask me.

It won't be long before the Harry Potter range on HBO Max expands with the latest movie.

In the third "Fantastic Beast" movie, the wizarding world prepares for war. Mighty Gellert Grindelwald is gaining more and more power and gathering his army to rule the world, and it is up to Albus Dumbledore and Newt Scamander to try to stop him.
 
"Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore" continues on the franchise, which in turn is a prequel to the Harry Potter movies. The new films may not quite reach the same popularity, but are good enough for all smugglers who have missed the magical world.
 
Right now, the film is number one on the Swedish cinema top, and during the weekend it will also be released on American cinema screens. But when can you stream "Amazing Monsters: Dumbledore's Secrets"?
 
With a little luck, even before the summer. Warner Bros. has previously announced that all of their movies in 2022 will be exclusive to theaters for 45 days, and then released on HBO Max. (For example, we can stream "The Batman" as early as Monday.) This means that "Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore" will likely be released on streaming on May 31st.
 
HBO Max usually only confirms the date one week in advance.

Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum remember back in a new featurette for this summer's "Jurassic World" sequel.
In 1993, "Jurassic Park" became the most successful movie of the year, and Steven Spielberg made the whole world believe in dinosaurs. The experience was equally memorable for the film's three human stars - Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum - who look back on the work of an iconic popcorn film.
 
- There was a special energy on the recording, you had never seen anything like it before, says Laura Dern in a newly released featurette.

In the same clip, Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard remember what it was like to see "Jurassic Park" for the first time. The two took over the lead roles in the new trilogy, "Jurassic World", and this summer they will finally meet the original trio in a larger, worldwide adventure. A nostalgic reunion awaits - and a grand finale.
 
- "Jurassic World: Domonion" is the culmination of the franchise. It ends the story that Spielberg began telling in 1993, says director Colin Trevorrow.

A year ago, there was information that Sony and PlayStation are starting cooperation on the production of a cinematic spectacle based on the game "Ghost of Tsushima". Now it turns out that the project did not end up in the trash, but is still being developed. Just got a screenwriter. It is Takashi Doscher, director of the movie "Only".

"Ghost of Tsushima" - about the game

The action of the game "Ghost of Tsushima" was set at the end of the 13th century, when the Mongol empire annihilated entire nations as part of its campaign to conquer the East. Tsushima Island is the only one that stands in the way between mainland Japan and the advancing mighty Mongol fleet led by the ruthless and cunning General Khotun Khan. As the island burns after the first wave of a Mongol attack, samurai warrior Jin Sakai becomes one of the last members of his clan. Jin is willing to do whatever he can to protect his people and regain his home. He must put aside the traditions that shaped him as a warrior in order to devise a new path - the path of the Spirit - and take part in the custom battle to liberate Tsushima Island.

What do we know about the movie "Ghost of Tsushima"?

"Ghost of Tsushima" will be the second joint film project from Sony and PlayStation. The first one has already hit theaters. It is "Uncharted," which has already grossed over $ 380 million worldwide.

The director of the show is still Chad Stahelski, although he is a very busy man. It also plans, among others, movies: "John Wick 4", "Highlander", "Kill or Be Killed" and "Sandman Slim" and series: "Gangsters of Shanghai" and "Rain".

Takashi Doscher is just starting his Hollywood career. He has made a post-apocalyptic film with Freida Pinto "Tylko". He is currently working for MGM on a show inspired by Japanese monster films called "Blue".

Since his international breakthrough 15 years ago, Alexander Skarsgård has not looked back.

The 45-year-old Swede has established himself as a true Hollywood star with big roles in popular series such as 'True Blood' and 'Big Little Lies' as well as the King of Monkeys Tarzan in The Legend of Tarzan and in budget-heavy films such as Godzilla vs. Kong.

But now Skarsgård has found a home. At least in the sense that his new film The Northman is about his own ancestors, the Vikings. The project is a large and $ 90 million expensive Hollywood production, in which Skarsgård plays the Viking Amleth, who embarks on a brutal revenge raid.

A boy's dream
When we meet the Swedish superstar in Stockholm, he is in no doubt either. Viking Prince Amleth is a dream role:

- I have dreamed about it since I was a boy, says Skarsgård.

'The Northman' draws threads back to the actor's own childhood:

- Do you know the island of Øland? It is located just north of Bornholm. We have a family home on that island, and there are about 160 rune stones on Øland, so when I was a young boy, I remember being fascinated by them.

- My grandfather told me stories about the runic inscriptions, and it was wild for a 6-year-old to hear stories about Vikings who traveled all the way to Constantinople and their insane expeditions.

- As a young boy, my imagination runs wild, and I had this dream of one day being allowed to play a Viking.

Should physically look like something in between a wolf and a bear
 

Alexander Skarsgård has previously trained for a role, such as when he had to play the muscular Tarzan. But the role in 'The Northman' still takes first place both mentally and physically for the massive Swede.

The almost two-meter-tall actor is Prince Amleth, who swears to avenge his father's murder. He grows up as an animal warrior who brutally slaughters anyone he comes near.

The mental preparation came especially through the author and Viking expert Neil Price. Skarsgård highlights the book 'Children of Ash and Elm':

- It was fascinating reading. It was my Viking Bible in the preparations and research work for the film, to understand a Viking's mindset a thousand years ago.

The physical transformation has also been absolutely central:

- In terms of the physical, I play is a so-called "berserker" in the film, and his spiritual animal is a hybrid of a wolf and a bear, so the goal was to look like something in between a wolf and a bear.

- I'm pretty skinny by nature, so I had to take some weight off. So we started five months before we started recording, where I ate a lot and exercised every day with the goal of increasing my weight.

The fight scenes were a nightmare to record
Behind the film is the visionary director Robert Eggers, who broke through with the witch thriller The Witch and followed it up with the Oscar-nominated and black-and-white bizarre The Lighthouse, which both visually and historically challenges its viewer.

While 'The Northman' is without a doubt Eggers' most accessible film, the 38-year-old American still demanded quite a bit from his actors. The film's many fight scenes are, for example, recorded as so-called long takes, where the entire scene is one long clip without a stop.

- It was a nightmare. That was it really, says Skarsgård with a smile and continues:

- Rob is an executive filmmaker. But the way he makes films, his style, is first of all on real film, it is not digital, and pretty much all the scenes, especially the fight scenes, are one long shot without clips. Which means you can not cheat at all.

- Usually you shoot a big fight scene, and some parts are good, some are not so good. But you are covered in because you have a camera somewhere else, or record it again and insert it. But this way meant we had to make the scene again, again and again.

- After a big three-four minute scene, you are totally exhausted, but if a small detail was not perfect, you will have to do it all over again from the start. And as you can probably imagine, you can not save on the forces, the adrenaline must pump, you have to give yourself one hundred percent every single shot, because on the camera you can clearly see if you pull a little.
- So it was both physically and mentally draining to record those scenes because we shot them up to 30 times. All. All the fight scenes.
Skarsgård highlights one of the film's intense scenes related to a ball game:
- That scene took over a week to shoot. And I have to fight Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, the world's strongest man, and get beaten. And we have to do that again and again and again. So I was very, very sore.

The star hopes that the big work shines through when you sit in the cinema:

 - But hopefully the result is that for the audience it is different, even if it is subconscious. Maybe you do not observe that there are no clips, but hopefully you can feel that something is different. That it is made in a different way.

- In a normal fight scene, there are hundreds of clips, quick clips, tam-tam-tam-tam, but because there are no clips, we can hope that it creates a different feeling in the spectator. Otherwise, it was damn not worth it.

Danish Claes Bang and corona bubble
 

In addition to Hollywood actors such as Nicole Kidman, Anya Taylor-Joy, Ethan Hawke and Willem Dafoe, the cast also includes Danish Claes Bang.

The Swede has only praise for his Danish colleague:

- Claes is a wonderful, wonderful guy. He's wonderful in the movie. He has a quiet intensity above him. But outside of filming, he's super funny and cute. And very far from this strong, stoic viking. Claes is quite flamboyant and easy to get along with.

'The Northman' was recorded in 2020, while the corona epidemic was almost at its peak, so a number of precautions were also taken. But it actually meant that the actors got an even closer relationship:

- We were totally isolated when we shot the film. We could even hang out with the team on the weekends because of the pandemic. This was in 2020, so that was before people started getting vaccinated. So in our movie bubble we were supposed to be in an even smaller bubble.

- On the weekends, you could only hang out with the other actors, because we were already seen together without masks. So we were Gustav Lindh, Claes and Anya Taylor-Joy. A really wonderful group of people.

- We ate together at the weekend, and because the recordings were so intense, it was nice to have these calmer and lighter moments where we just hung out and talked about everything and watched a football match.

An almost sadistic week with Claes
The filming for one particular scene with Claes Bang highlights Alexander Skarsgård as "the hardest week I have ever experienced in a movie".

It's about a sword fight on a bubbling volcano:

- We were naked. We shot it while it was snowing. It was dog cold. It was late fall. And in the evening.

- And we were not just naked, we also had to be wet, because of all the blood. Especially my character because I bleed profusely. So they rinsed me over with water and fake blood and it's fucking cold. And it's a long, choreographed fight scene, and you're so tired you can not think, but you still have to remember all the rhythms of the fight.

 - Because it is a volcano, they also pump out these fucking particles combined with smoke, so you can neither breathe properly nor see. So it was a terrible week for all of us.

 - It felt almost sadistic in a way. Because it was so awful, you were tired, wet, cold and feeling miserable. But you still had to implement it. It was downright horrible for the whole team, but especially Claes and I.

 - What made me continue was that there was a shot on the moodboard. Before we started the movie, they had made a moodboard that showed what all these locations and scenes would look like, and there is an amazing drawing of the two of us fighting on this volcano in eruption.

 - I tried to recreate that image, and it made me continue. If we can get just close to it, then it's all worth it.

 The total result of all of Alexander Skarsgård's torments can be seen in the cinema now.
