Bryan Cranston, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Sally Hawkins talk ‘Godzilla’
The famous monster Godzilla will be back this summer, destroying city and creating havoc. Some of the all-star cast members spoke about the film and their roles, chronicled in a Feb. 9 Epoch Times article.
Bryan Cranston went on ET Canada and described his experience.
“As a kid, Godzilla was my creature of choice, oh yeah,” he said. “I loved the absolute destructive nature of this beast.”
“They’re taking a very restrained approach to this. Much like ‘Jaws’ did, Steven Spielburg didn’t always show the beast. His essence is present and it’s there … and it’s creepy. So you know the tension will mount.”
Godzilla “doesn’t know how to express himself other than eating people, I don’t know,” said star Sally Hawkins.
Kick-Ass star Aaron Taylor-Johnson discussed how demanding the role was.
“It was a physically demanding role,” the Kick-Ass star tells Total Film. “I’m in helicopters. We’re on trucks and trains and we’re moving giant missiles…
“Things are crashing around us. You’re getting close to death. There’s a lot of sutff that’s made it really active.”
Ken Watanabe, Elizabeth Olsen, Juliette Binoche and David Strathairn also star.
