Ray Winstone Says Marvel Reshoots ‘Can Be Soul-Destroying’ and He Nearly Quit ‘Black Widow’: ‘It’s Like Being Kicked in the Balls’
Ray Winstone says it was "soul-breaking" having to reshoot "Black Widow" and change his performance.
He told The Guardian that sometimes you just take a project because you need the money, not because you’re super passionate about the script.
So why should it have mattered, if this was the kind of job he took just for the money? I highly doubt he took on Black Widow because it was a movie he truly believed in and was passionate about.
I'm a graphic designer, so I'm used to taking on all kinds of projects just for the money. Sometimes the client wants a change that you know is bad, you can provide feedback and let them know you think it's a bad decision, but at the end of the day, the client is calling the shots because they're the one commissioning the work. If he doesn't want to do reshoots, he should work it into his contract or just not take on projects like that. If it wasn't a project he was passionate about, why care about reshooting things the way some exec wants, unless it could somehow compromise his reputation as an actor or something.
Despite being paid large sums of money, I want you to know my job has aspects I don't like; sometimes it's hard work!
Me working 10 hour shifts, hating life and wishing I was paid more "oh that sucks for him"
Acting is hard. At least they gave him money...
I'd never even heard of this guy before this movie. Sounds like he isn't suited for working on big movies.
Basically, he just didn't want to do reshoots and wanted to pull Clint Eastwood shit but realized he would be sued for breach of contract for not letting the director get the shot they wanted vs what he gave them.
What are you talking about? He’s worked with Spielberg and Scorsese. He’s a legend of the screen.
You’re talking like he’s some nobody who doesn’t know what he’s doing. The issue is that he loves acting and he’s not just doing it for the money.
To me, he is a nobody. I'm not a young kid either. LOL
But to counter the point in your post, I citr a quote from him in the article:
"You do films you don’t want to do. But you’ve got to do them because you haven’t worked in a little while and you’ve got to pay the rent."
What a baby. Being kicked in the balls is not like having some thing dissapont you. If he is feeling like he was kicked in the balls it was him kicking his own balls. When are people going to take ownership of their mind and start to regulate emotions not attach and identify as them. We literally have serious wars and wealth disparity but the uber rich are kicking their own balls out of boredom and lack of internal resilience.
Oh... this isn't unpopular opinion.... I do love marvel go Captian Marvel (my fav).
