INTERVJU / INTERVIEW
Henri Kavil Ovaj film ne shvata sebe previše ozbiljno
HENRY CAVILL THIS FILM DOESN'T TAKE ITSELF TOO SERIOUSLY
Henri Kavil, poznat kao Supermen u filmu „Čovek od čelika“, kao i po seriji „Veštac“, igraće glavnu ulogu u novoj verziji filma „Gorštak“, koja se tek očekuje, a u međuvremenu ga gledamo kao Argajla, lepog i izma- štanog špijuna u istoimenom filmu... Za početak, kako vam se desio ovaj projekat? – Na najjednostavniji način: Metju Von me je pozvao i nagovorio me. Poznajemo se vec neko vreme i imam ogromno poverenje u njega. Rekao je: „Vidi, znam da zvuči ludo, ali veruj mi“. A ja sam rekao: „U redu! Ho-
Henry Cavill, best known for playing Superman in Man of Steel, but also for his role in the series The Witcher, is set to play the lead role in the upcoming reboot of the cult film Highlander. In the meantime, however, we can see him perform as Argyle, a handsome and refined spy, in the eponymous movie... How did this project happen for you? “In the simplest of ways—Matthew Vaughn called me and talked me through it. We have known each other for a while now and I trust him enormously. He said, “Look, I know it
cu“. Dakle, poslao mi je scenario i svideo mi se. Radio sam sa njim na „Zvezdanoj prašini“ i od tada sam gledao sve njegove filmove. Divna stvar kod Metjua je to što on uvek pomera granice i menja stvari poku- šavajuci da donese nešto novo. On ima prst na pulsu društva. Ovde izvrce špijunski žanr i njegove junake... – Da, mislim da u raznim špijunskim franšizama koje znamo, uključujuci „Kingsmane“ koje je on režirao, do- bijate informacije o ovakvoj vrsti li- ka koji ja igram ovde, idealizovanoj verziji špijuna. I tako, uzmete sve te elemente, a onda ih preuveličate do besvesti dodajuci malo boje Metjua Vona u celu stvar. Vi zapravo dajete život super- špijunu Argajlu koji je stvorila spisateljica Eli Konvej? – Da, Argajl je izmišljeni lik u izmišlje- nom svetu. Bilo ga je zabavno igra- ti jer je sve vreme deo Eline mašte, što omogucava odvajanje od stvar- nog sveta u kome se nalaze ostali li- kovi. Sve što ima veze sa njim je po- jačano, kao i sama priroda priče.
sounds crazy, but trust me.” And I was like, “Okay! I will.” So, he sent me the script and I loved it. I worked with him on Stardust, and since then have watched all his films. The wonderful thing about Matthew is that he’s always pushing the envelope and chang- ing things, trying to bring something new. He has his finger on the pulse.” Here he turns the spy genre and the characters that populate it on its head. “Yes, I think that in the various spy fran- chises we know, including the Kingsman series that he directed, they all inform this kind of character I play here, because he’s very much an idealised version of a spy. And so, it’s about taking all those things and then just dialling them up to 11, add- ing a bit of Matthew Vaughn colour to the whole thing.” You bring to life the superspy Argyl- le created by novelist Elly Conway, por- trayed by Bryce Dallas Howard. “Yes, Argylle is a fictional character with- in a fictional world. He was fun to play, be- cause he’s in Elly’s imagination the whole time, which allows for a separation from the real world that Bryce and Sam’s char- acters inhabit. Everything that has to do
with him is heightened, as is the nature of the story.” So, how would you explain what the director has achieved with this movie? “What Matthew has made is, I think, something that is a reaction to the times. We are going through some par- ticularly difficult and trying times, and he has brought this in as a sense of bombastic, enjoyable, complex, but easy- to-watch entertainment. And it’s new! It’s not something you’ve seen before. So, it’s going to provide that sense of wonder as well. Argylle is a film that doesn’t take itself too seriously and that is a lot of fun, but there’s also an un- derlying message of believing in yourself even when you don’t think you can, because you’ll be surprised with what you can achieve.”
Dakle, kako biste objasnili šta je reditelj postigao ovim filmom?
– Ono što je Metju napravio, rekao bih, jeste svojevr- sna reakcija na današnje vreme. Prolazimo kroz teš- ke periode, a on se time pozabavio utkavši zabavu, bombastičnu, prijatnu, složenu zabavu koja je neop- terećujuća za gledanje... To nije nešto što ste ranije videli. Dakle, doneće vam i osećaj začuđenosti. „Ar- gajl“ je film koji sebe ne shvata previše ozbiljno i koji je veoma zabavan, ali postoji i poučni sloj da treba da verujete u sebe. Čak i kada mislite da nešto ne mo- žete, bićete iznenađeni onim što zapravo možete da postignete.
