Trascrizione
00:00...down and, and, and, um, uh, stupid, in a way, yeah.
00:30Che cosa?
00:31Il regno.
00:32I love how you worked on your posture because you are...
00:37It's almost like you always have a weight on your neck.
00:41Your... How did you work on that?
00:43Well, first of all, my character, his name is Bjorn Ulfur,
00:47which is Old Norse for bear wolf.
00:50Um, you also see when he's a berserker, he transforms.
00:54He transforms from a human to a bear wolf hybrid.
00:58Um, so, I wanted him to look more like a bear than I do.
01:04I'm quite lean, so it was, I wanted to just have more bulk and more weight.
01:08Um, but then also, I wanted to...
01:11When my character, Amleth, when he, when he gets to the farm in Iceland
01:16and he pretends to, um, uh, to be one of the slaves, uh, coming there
01:24and he wants to, he tries to get close to his uncle so he can kill him.
01:28Um, he wants to, to make himself, um, useful because it's important.
01:35If he's not, then they're gonna kick him off the farm.
01:37So, um, and, and his way of doing that is to be, um, basically a work horse on the farm
01:44and just drag heavy things around and be useful to Fjolnir.
01:49Um, um, so it, it, it, it was about just being, and also not, to be quite, um, to not
01:57be considered a threat.
01:58It was important that he never, he didn't look too sharp and too intelligent.
02:02So there wasn't, I wanted him to kind of feel, there's almost like a haze in front of his eyes.
02:08Um, and he just like, doesn't barely talk.
02:12He doesn't ask questions.
02:13Um, he doesn't really connect with anyone.
02:15He just like pulls, carries heavy rocks and pulls, pulls stuff around the farm like a, like a beast of
02:22burden.
02:22Um, so, uh, that's why I wanted the posture to be a bit more down and, and, and, um, uh,
02:33stoop in a way.
02:34Your character says that he has known only hate and we can escape our destiny.
02:40Instead, Anya Taylor's joy wants him to choose future hope.
02:46Do you believe that he is right? We can escape or we can choose?
02:49I, I don't really want to go into whether I think he's right or wrong.
02:54Um, cause I don't really want to pass judgment or, um, I think it's good for the audience to not
03:03really know too much.
03:05Um, to someone like Amleth a thousand years ago, who believes that the Norns have, um, spun this, this, this
03:15tapestry,
03:16that weaved this, this, his faith, uh, uh, even though he's presented with an opportunity to do the role in,
03:27in some people's eyes,
03:30maybe the right thing to go with, with the woman he loves and, and, and, uh, start a new chapter
03:39in his life.
03:39To him, that becomes very difficult because again, like he believes so strongly in, in faith and that he can't
03:47control it.
03:48That it's, um, um, he's got free will, but it's, it ultimately it will only manifest itself as a, as
03:57a manifestation of his, of the preexisting truth of his destiny.
04:01So, um, again, I, I, I, I, I'm reluctant to say like, Oh, he was wrong. Right. But, but it's,
04:08it's definitely a dilemma.
04:10He's in for sure.
04:11Okay. Thank you so much.
04:13Thank you very much.
04:14Thank you.
