Sadie Sink says in ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’, she was offered her role without an audition, and she didn’t receive a script until she landed in London for filming | Full Interview

Archived Version

Quotes from the Article :

Sink, 24, first arrived in London last summer and simply decided to stay put. Before she knew it, her cats, Fifi and Pippin, had joined her in Notting Hill. At the time, she had just completed her acclaimed turn in the Broadway play John Proctor Is the Villain, which earned her a Tony nomination, and hopped on a plane across the Atlantic to shoot Spider-Man: Brand New Day in the U.K. Then came the conclusion of Stranger Things, which had been the one constant in Sink’s life for nearly a decade.

When Sink first touched down here, her initial plan was to stay in town for the length of the Spider-Man shoot, but then Romeo & Juliet came calling. "I was in no way on the market to do another play,” Sink says, until she met with director and playwright Robert Icke, who has been called “the great hope of British theater.” “I really thought after I finished the last one: ‘I’m going to take a break.’” Icke persuaded her to give the play a shot; in turn, she suggested she audition for him, as he’d never seen her work before (not even Stranger Things). “I was never really drawn to Juliet as a character, and I just pictured her fawning over a balcony, which is fine,” she says, summoning her former skepticism. “I was just like, ‘Is there much there?’” Sink then spent the fall ping-ponging between the Spider-Man set and intensely studying the text with Icke. “The juxtaposition was nice.”

This summer brings her into the Spider-Man universe, which, unsurprisingly, she can say very little about. Sink’s role remains a closely guarded secret that she has had no trouble keeping, what with nine years of experience in hiding Stranger Things spoilers. (“You just don’t share the secret, it’s not that hard,” she says, laughing.) Sometimes even she wasn’t privy to the details: Sink was offered her role without an audition, having worked with director Destin Daniel Cretton on the 2017 film The Glass Castle, and she didn’t receive a script until she landed in London.

Being at the center of a speculative storm of fan theories around Sink’s character has still been eye-opening. “I knew that Marvel was a big deal and had a big brand, especially Spider-Man,” she says. “I know there’s a huge fan base, but it feels really big. I think these blockbuster movies are a whole different beast.”

She credits costar Tom Holland with helping orient her. “It was interesting stepping into that space and being a little bit of an outsider in that way, but he could not have been more welcoming, and just the whole crew in general,” she says. “He was just so relaxed and open, and I felt very at ease.”

About passing on the mantle of Wolverine post Secret Wars, Hugh Jackman says : "I'm not going to say anything to whoever plays it, cuz no one said anything to me, which I really am thrilled about ... I've got some time until I'm 90, maybe they haven't been born yet. I'll do a little time capsule"

Interviewer : Obviously, you're still playing the character, but maybe one day, I don't know, you might live till 200 playing this character. For the next actor who takes on the mantle, what's one thing you would hope they understand about the character that maybe is not obvious from the outside?

Hugh Jackman : Huh. I don't know. I'm not going to say anything to whoever plays it, cuz no one said anything to me, which I really am thrilled about. And I had not read the comics, so I was just coming to it fresh. And I learned a lot over the years. Of course I've got my own take, but it must be melding in with me in some way. So, I hope Someone just comes in, does whatever they want and makes it their own. And well, I'm 57. I'm doing it till I'm 90. So, you know, I got some time. They haven't been born yet. I'll do a little time capsule for them.

Tidbits from Brandon Davis Show on 'Avengers : Doomsday'

Starts 19:35 and 29:03

Brandon Davis on his latest podcast says that RDJ remains the bucket list interview for him, [but] that has not happened yet. Maybe one day. He says that [in the CBR interview] they were focused on Civil War and Infinity War and they talked a little bit about Doomsday.

Talking further about CBR's interview with the Russo Brothers and RDJ, Brandon Davis intends to answer questions to his followers on X.

Sean O'Connell from CBR sat down with Robert Downey Jr. and Joe Russo one of the directors who directed Winter Soldier, Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame and now Doomsday and Secret Wars (which Joe Russo said will start filming by the end of the year, is what they're saying). Brandon Davis further says he has a few takeaways, and made a lot of bullet points from this interview (reads from his notes).

- They talked about Happy Hogan and Joe Russo having cameos in Infinity War and that got cut. They were going to be at the beginning of the movie. Joe Russo was going to be a paparazzi guy and Happy Hogan was going to be driving a golf cart. They filmed 20 days worth of footage for Avengers : Infinity War. They were going to kill Tony Stark in Infinity War, but couldn't figure out how to use him effectively in Endgame. Given that Tony was always going to be in Endgame, they just decided to wait and kill him in Endgame. They knew Tony and Steve breaking up was going to happen in Civil War and that would open up a lot of interesting stories after that. But at the time Joe and Anthony weren't 100% sure they were going to be the people directing Infinity War and Endgame. But they did see the story possibilities that that opened up (which Brandon says he finds it interesting that they talk about stuff like that because Marcus and McFeely were the ones writing this).

- Brandon talks about the dynamic between Tom Holland and RDJ when they shot Spider-Man's dusting scene on Titan in Infinity War.

- RDJ then talked about differentiating Doctor Doom from Tony Stark. RDJ further teased Alan Silvestri’s Doctor Doom theme for ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ and that it helped him find the character basically.

“We’re on day 4 of Production … Joe’s like, ‘It’s going pretty good. Come here.’ And he plays me Doom’s theme. And I was like, ‘Oh, yeah. Okay, it’s that.’ And it even affected that day of shooting and every day since"

RDJ says :
>"I try to stay as removed from a subjective experience of things as I can eventually there's so many big shoes to step into that I just have to go what hasn't been done as well as it can be done yet. So we're always looking for that opportunity. There's some experimentation and we've had our moments of let's shift here. But we landed in a place where I think we'll more than suffice, it's not even about how I executed it. It's about the way it's been structured and the other characters. There is something going on in Doomsday, and forward, that is literally the only antidote to how do you not let this film be a let down after Infinity War and an Endgame. And boy have we labored long and hard to bring that."

Joe Russo adds that they've been harder than the other ones, but the answer to how to make sure this isn't a let down (compared to IW and EG) which is emotional complexity.

Joe Russo :
>"You bring an emotional complexity to anything and it richens it and it makes it a fuller experience for the audience and it surprises you. There are a lot of surprises in this I think it 's the most emotionally complex of all of them and in a lot of ways the most mature of all of them".

About Alan Silvestri's Doctor Doom theme, Joe's like "It's going pretty good. Come here". And it even affected that day of shooting every day since. And then Joe Russo called that a tone cue.

Bruce Banner's Improved Inhibitor in Brand New Day

Bruce Banner's inhibitor in Brand New Day looks much more advanced than the one that broke during the Car accident that affected Jen Walters' (which led her to become the She-Hulk).

Though he found a way to avoid transforming into Savage Hulk (after Thor : Ragnarok) and has controlled his transformation between Smart Hulk and his normal self, poor Bruce Banner is set to become the Grey Hulk, causing a rampage.

While it isn't clear what happened to Skaar (since the end of She-Hulk), and that the events of Brand New Day likely happen 3 years after the She-Hulk show, I wonder if Bruce Banner gets into the crosshairs of William Metzger and is gonna end up being arrested by the DODC.

What do you all think?

‘X-Men’ star Famke Janssen says Marvel ‘made a mistake’ by not asking her to return as Jean Grey in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’

Famke Janssen at SpaceCon San Antonio, TX

Starts 36:51

Famke Janssen :
>“I am so bad at keeping secrets that I always say to everyone I’m the worst actor in the world. It’s all on my face. You right away will read it. I think they made a mistake, but hey, who am I? I’m just a little me who thinks that.”
>
>“It’s interesting. I didn’t realize that was such a big part. Every interview I do, that will come up, and of everything I say, that is going to be the only thing that’s gonna be printed.”
>
>She added : “I should be flattered, I suppose, that this character has resonated with people. It’s been so long, but it’s nice that people are still talking about her. I’m sure every single time there’s a new movie that they’re doing, like [is it] ‘Doomsday?’ … it’ll come up again.”

Tom Holland on whether he will return as Spider-Man for 'Doomsday' or 'Secret Wars' says : “I have a reputation for spoiling certain things and I think the studios are keeping me [out] from the juicy details. But when I do get to grace that set, I’m curious of what that means for Peter Parker"

Tom Holland reveals he was one of the first people to know about Robert Downey Jr.'s return to the MCU as Doctor Doom in Avengers : Doomsday. Tom also talks about the possibility of seeing him in the next two Avengers movies.

“I think I hung up the call and said, ‘Downey is coming back ! it's really exciting !!” the actor recalls with a laugh.

While Zendaya confirms that "Yes, I was the first to know because we were in the same room".

On whether he will return as Spider-Man in ‘AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY’ or ‘AVENGERS: SECRET WARS' : “I have a reputation for spoiling certain things and I think the studios are keeping me from the juicy details. But when I do get to grace that set, I’m so curious of what that does mean for Peter Parker"

Jessica Henwick about her return says : "You know, Colleen had the [Iron Fist] power. She was doing her own thing. She had set up the agency with Misty ... and to open that door again, it's got to be so worth it"

Interviewer : I have to ask, I've been a fan of a lot of your work for so long. Um, I've been a fan of you in Iron Fist with that part of the MCU. I know a lot of those characters are coming back into the current landscape of the Marvel world. Would you love to come back? Has there been any talk for you to return?

Jessica Henwick : I mean, I would love to. From the get-go, I've always said how much Colleen meant to me, and I'm such a big fan of her. I love the idea of revisiting her after 8-9 years. I've never done that with a character before. I'm so curious to see where she's ended up. But I'm also really happy with where we landed with her. You know, she had the power. She was doing her own thing. She had set up the agency with Misty and so for me to come back and open that door again, it's got to be so worth it. Otherwise, I'm very happy to leave her in peace.

Interviewer : Okay. Yeah. I mean, I hope we get a spin-off with you and Misty, but just yeah, throwing that out there.

Jessica Henwick : I would love it. I love that entire cast. Um, I've been visiting the set. Uh yeah, I would love to go back.
