Tony Todd fick tala fritt till fansen i Final Destination: Bloodlines

Filmserien Final Destination har stått stilla sedan 2011 när den femte filmen hade premiär, men imorgon har den sjätte filmen i serien, Final Destination: Bloodlines, svensk premiär. Under de 25 år som serien existerat har en självklar roll varit Tony Todds medverkan som tyvärr lämnade oss i sviterna av magcancer. Redan under filminspelningen stod det klart att detta skulle bli ett av de sista projekten som Todd medverkade i och därför lät regissörerna honom säga precis vad han ville till tittarna, genom sin karaktär Bludworth. Detta berättade producenten Craig Perry i en intervju med Deadline.

"Zach [Lipovsky] and Adam [Stein], our directors, they made a very shrewd decision to take the last couple of lines that were scripted and say, 'Tony, just say what you would want to say to the fans. What would you like to impart to them in this moment?' So, everything that makes that scene so emotional is authentic because that was just Tony talking through the camera to the very fans who supported him for so many years. So, it was a very magical moment on set. It was an impactful moment, and it's one I'll take with me until I go to the grave."
