Malekith's death in Thor: The Dark World was pretty definitive and given Christopher Eccleston's phoned in performance, it's fair to say fans probably aren't clamouring for his return! However, in a new interview, the British actor has made it clear he didn't enjoy working with Marvel and describes his role in the Alan Taylor helmed sequel as, "Not my greatest moment, it has to be said."
"The first couple of days it was about seven hours, eight hours [in make-up]," he continued. "I think we got it down to six and a half. It's a day's work before [anything]. Marvel were dishonest to me because they never, ever let me know that there'd be that amount of make-up." So, that process clearly got him down but it appears as if he only took the job for an easy paycheque regardless!
"Money. That’s exactly what I felt," he added when the interviewer suggested that was a good reason to play the villain. The movie didn't do much for Eccleston's career anyway and of all the characters Marvel could bring back from the dead, he's probably right on the bottom of the studio's list.
