MOVIE LINE talked with Chris Evans and the Kassen bros. recently to discuss his new film
Puncture which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival this week. Of course almost the entire conversation was directly related to
Puncture but comparisons between the way
Puncture and
Captain America were filmed did arise.
As a character, Mike is a departure for you. Are you going to try to do more of these types of roles going forward, perhaps to balance out being a major superhero like Captain America?
"Yeah, of course! You gotta. The Captain America stuff is great, it’s fun. I actually do connect to the character; I love that character. But for me, the thing I struggle with on those films is the process. The way the film is made. It’s a very big movie, there’s a lot of waiting around. This film, we shot… 25 days?
25 filming days! That’s insane. It’s like 90-something with Captain America. We’re doing 7-to-8 pages a day on Puncture, and Captain America, we get — y’know, half a page. We’re lucky if we get a page."
Directed by Joe Johnston and starring Chris Evans Hugo Weaving, Tommy Lee Jones, Stanley Tucci, Hayley Atwell and Dominic Cooper
Captain America: The First Avenger will hit theaters this July 22nd.
