Action Adventure nuova intervista a Julian. Parla soprattutto di Doom, con un piccolo accenno al rumour sullo 007 (già postato qualche giorno fa nel
topic relativo) e alla notizia della 3° serie di Nip Tuck prevista per marzo 2005.
Al solito in inglese...
Julian McMahon - Fantastic Four's Dr. Doomnip/tuck's Surgeon Goes Bad
Dr. Doom - Campy Villain or Not?: Julian McMahon could relish the role of a comic book supervillain. But will Victor Von Doom and his alter ego Dr. Doom be campy, or will Julian McMahon play it straight? “It's just about immersing myself in the role, enjoying myself and hopefully giving the fans what they want," McMahon said. "But a little bit of both, to be honest. You try and camp up it a little bit when you get those opportunities, but you don't want to look like a schmuck.”
Julian McMahon's Fantastic Four Connection: This is like playing Six Degrees of The Fantastic Four. When Julian McMahon was on Charmed, his double for an effect where he turned into a devil, was the actor who played The Thing in Roger Corman’s bootleg Fantastic Four movie. “How funny is this,” McMahon said. “Michael Bailey Smith is his name. And then I worked with the girl who played Sue Storm in the movie as well. Like the other day, she’s like, ‘I’m the original Sue Storm.’ I’m like, ‘Yeah, Dr. Doom’s not going there my dear.’”
The Future of nip/tuck: Season two of nip/tuck ended with a major cliffhanger for Julian McMahon’s character, Dr. Christian Troy. While on the set of The Fantastic Four in October 2004, McMahon was somewhat uncertain about his commitment to nip/tuck in the future. “ I’m not too sure exactly what I’m going to do in regards to nip/tuck,” McMahon said. “I don't think it will be going back into production until at least March and we have a lot of discussion before that actually happens.”
The James Bond Rumors: Julian McMahon was discussed as a front-runner candidate for the role of James Bond. While on the set of The Fantastic Four, he would neither confirm nor deny that rumor, which usually means something’s happening. “Unfortunately, it’s something I really can’t talk about,” McMahon said. “We’ll see what happens in regards to that but they’ve obviously got an extraordinary franchise which I’d be honored to be involved in at any point in time. We’ll see what happens.”
Julian McMahon and Heavy Metal: “I have started the prosthetic thing,” McMahon said two months into the shoot. “Once we all come back to earth, Victor gets a cut in his head and he starts to develop this stuff in his hand. And we’ve done this very slow evolution of this man turning into this kind of metal steel product. So the prosthetic for me so far has basically just been stuff on my face, a little bit of stuff on my face and stuff on my hand. It does develop into more of a Thing type prosthetic I believe.”
Doom Vs. Thing Make-Up: Michael Chiklis has raised the bar pretty high with his performance under foam rubber. “You can really see the evolution of the prosthetics actually containing itself inside of the actor,” McMahon said. “The prosthetics involved are so detailed and so minute and you can actually see the character of Michael underneath that face and you can see the expression on his face when he’s going through certain types of emotions. I’ve emoted with my hand about as much as you can emote for one actor.”
Film versus television: With The Fantastic Four hitting theaters in the summer of 2005, Julian McMahon could potentially have a franchise on his hands while he’s still committed to nip/tuck. Fortunately, the FX network is owned by 20th Century Fox, the producers of The Fantastic Four, and so far they are working around McMahon’s nip/tuck schedule.
“You know what the wonderful thing about this whole thing is it really all comes under the Fox umbrella,” McMahon said. “So as much as we’re on the FX network and it’s owned by Fox, Fox is an integral part of it. And there’s a kind of synergy to it that I think for me, I feel like it’s allowed me to be here. And as [Michael Chiklis] was stipulating, it’s very difficult to make these kind of things work. It’s not that easy to be in a TV show and try to upstart a movie career at the same time. The one thing that we do have is that we both work on TV shows that only work for six months of the year, which is a bonus because then you can get out and do six months of something else. And when you have these kind of guys who are willing to do whatever it takes to get whatever it is right, and that is obviously involved in the casting and the shooting and all that kind of stuff, I think you’ll eventually work things out hopefully. I’m just trying to get myself in the sequel, so.”
