Samuel L. Jackson co stars in The Spirit as The Octopus facing off against Gabriel Macht who has the title role.
"Gabriel and I fight all the time," Jackson told reporters. "I fight with the Spirit. We had choreographed fights. We did them, and there's no imagination. The big green is just for what the setting is, what the city looks like, for the mudflats where we're at, and not for things that are coming at you."
Jackson reveals a little about his role as a super villain; "And I had some pretty big guns," Jackson said with a laugh. "Nice big guns."
Frank Miller is using a lot of green screen and techniques that were used in Sin City.
"Acting in the big green room is like being a kid in your room by yourself, and you just imagine all this stuff jumping out at you, and you fight it until you get tired," Jackson said.
We can expect to see The Spirit in 2009 and also stars Scarlett Johansson, Eva Mendes, Jaime King and Paz Vega.
