From The Lord of the Ringsdirector’s trilogy Peter Jackson is still one of the most popular productions ever made. But not everything is equally good. Not everyone is a fan of the character Samwise Gamgee.Director Jackson was also not always happy with the actor Sean Astin and the always so calm-looking director let us know during the shooting. Astin remembers a moment when Jackson rather “brutal” was about his performance. The actor during a recent interview:
“The most painful thing Peter Jackson ever said to me … You know, he’s a man of few words. He’s a very, very stoic man. He can be a little impatient when he wants to or has to. He can act out things. and he’s very articulate, and so forth.
But in everyday life, Peter Jackson is actually a very quiet guy. He often just let things happen like that, and he gave very minimal direction. Usually he was like, ‘Let’s do it again.’ … But he came up to me at one point and he looked at me and said, ‘I didn’t believe that at all’. ”
Painful comment for Astin
This was followed by painful comments for Astin about his performance.
“Oh my God it was like a Mortal Kombat homicide. It was like he ripped my hair off my body, and my spine came out … But it was true. It was true I hadn’t invested. I was out of it.” character. I wasn’t in the mood. I was out … I just wasn’t there. “
