Förra veckan fick vi ta del av en spektakulär trailer till Toy Story 4, en uppföljare som många känner sig osäkra inför med tanke på vilken fantastisk final trean visade sig vara i slutändan. Ändå tycks fyran bjuda på en hel del kul nyheter, där Keanu Reeves som 70-talsleksaken Duke Caboom är en av dessa och nu berättar Reeves via Entertainment Weekly lite mer om vad vi kan förvänta oss av den plastige lille stuntmannen:
"I wanted to make sure I didn't do anything that would go into Tim Allen's space as Buzz Lightyear. That was one thing I was really paying attention to when I was thinking about the character and how he would talk. So I made Duke a little more gravelly but still tried to give him energy and a big personality.... I just thought that Duke should love what he does. He's the greatest stuntman in Canada! I wanted him to be constantly doing poses on the bike while he was talking, to have this great extroverted passion."
Toy Story 4-regissören Josh Cooley tillade också att Reeves hjälpte till att fördjupa karaktären under ett tidigt möte med skådespelaren:
"Once Keanu came to the table, he was just asking all of these great questions about the character... and it made us realize that we weren't digging deep enough for this character and there's a real opportunity to have him support Woody's story in a much bigger way."
Cooley avslöjade också att leksaken har lite av en tragisk bakgrundshistoria:
"Every kid has their toy, and Duke let his kid down when he couldn't do what the commercial said he could. So he's a wounded person! He's needing to have some, I don't know, catharsis. Some feeling. I wanted him to have a real sensitivity and a soft heart.... I also saw him as a character that has a really wide dramatic bandwidth in the sense of being so big. 'Kaboom! Kapow! Let's go!' But who can also then share his wounds, like, 'You have a kid? I had a kid. I let him down!' And he can get quiet. So it was really a lot to play with on the playground."
Nu finns dessutom en ny trailer att tillgå. Den känns mer som ett komplement till den förra trailern och vi ser inte så mycket av kanadensaren Duke, men vi håller tummarna för att Woodys nya äventyr med Bo Peep håller minst lika hög klass som de förra filmerna. Vad tror du om Toy Story 4? Vad tycker du om Keanu Reeves som skådespelare?
Bäst att göra sin unge nöjd, annars hamnar man i någon antikaffär!
