Why Dave Bautista Risked His Career to Defend James Gunn

So how did Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead come together, and can you say a little bit about your character?

I’ve been talking to Zack Snyder for years now; we’ve been trying to do a project together. I met Zack years ago and always loved him. I had an instant connection with this guy. He’s my type of director. He’s kind of a man’s man; he likes to train a lot and is all tatted up. We just kind of understand each other.

We’d been talking about this other project, which is a really great acting role for me. It’s a passion project for him, but for one reason or another, we just couldn’t get it going. When he got a hold of Army of the Dead, he actually wrote a smaller part for me in there. As he was gearing up for casting, he started thinking about who his lead would be, and he told me this personally, “One day, it just clicked: God, Dave is not that part; Dave is my lead.” So, he called me and asked me if I would do it; I said, “Hell yeah. I’d be happy to do it.” I really just want to work with Zack.

Hey, it’s “that guy”!

 

[Arachnerd]

Hell yeah. Love him in everything he's in.

*cough* Endgame totally wasted him though. *cough*

Awesome, loved him since The Last Samurai

 

[Pennywise]

Awesome!!

Snyder is also the cinematographer...... Has there ever been a movie with a budget this big and had the director serving as DP?

 

[Filmfreak]

How much is the budget for this one? If I remember correctly Steven Soderbergh is the DP in pretty much all of his movies, only using the pseudonym Peter Andrews and I think Ocean's 12 was his most expensive movie, at around 110 million.

 

[Gold Samurai]

Awesome, loved him since The Last Samurai

With his sword skills you can expect him to go all Michonne on zombies

 

[Guts]

So I guess he took all that talk about how he would be better as a cinematographer than a director to heart and decided to do both for this movie.

The look of his movies is unique because he himself storyboards every frame alongside the development of the script. He shoots with one camera so he doesn't lose visual focus. And he is really involved with the color grading process. Meaning, he has a vision that only he can execute.

Asking him to be a cinematographer for someones else creative choices during active production is pointless. What will he do? Light a scene? That's what people think that makes him unique as a filmmaker? His Lighting?

You know... that's a good point. I think in theory Snyder could make a great DP but that wouldn't come to pass for the reasons you just said. Snyder isn't that artist. He's not a reverse DP turned director.

Zack Snyder shared a photo on VERO™

 

[David H.]

So that’s where my old action figures went...

 

[Stringer]

I hope Ghost makes it until the end. Underrated actor.

 

[DS80]

Is he holding an electric chainsaw? The zombie kills are going to be glorious

 

[Guts]

I spot an Aliens reference.

 

[OutOfBoose]

Looks cool so far, bro. Badass. Looking forward to it.

[Nemeres]

Don't know if there are other "Looking" fans here, but I was happy to read Raúl Castillo has a role in this film.

He was incredible in We the Animals.
