Michal Novotný: The makeup artists Ivan Jonák came out clear
Lots of spectators in series Ninety especially shocked actor Michal Novotný, which the makeup artists skillfully incarnated into the role controversial Ivan Jonák.
“When I took the sheep on my head, sat her on my plump face, and put on a white suit, clear Jonak came out.” says the actor.
“It’s really a difficult task to play someone everyone knows. On the other hand, the space to portray Jonak in detail was simply not there. But he is captured in our series in a slightly different light than how he appeared in front of the media, with a banger in his hand, showing off his rings and cars. He already has cops behind his ass and he is no longer such a world champion, “Confides Novotný, who allegedly found out a lot of information about Jonák, which is not so well known about him.
Frosty Albert Čuba: František Mrázek could not be found
The Ostrava actor was less similar, but all the colder Albert Čubawho portrayed one of heads of the then underworld of František Mrázek.
„I didn’t find Mr. Mrázek’s video footage, so there wasn’t much to study. But I really enjoyed filming the 1990s, because the design and costumes were great and accurate in time. In addition, I am a child of the nineties because this is the period when I would be a teenager. That period will forever be associated with a certain nostalgia for me. I admit that I didn’t notice much of the cases of that time, especially those from the first half of the 1990s. I was only ten, “explains Čuba.
Ondřej Němec: Antonín Běla accidentally shows his repulsiveness
The third of the introduced “bastards” in the first part was Antonín Běla.
“I can only say a popular message about the 90’s: ‘He who remembers the 1990s has not experienced it.’ At that time, I was studying at the conservatory with Jaroslav Dušek, so all these cases and politics went completely beyond me. So I’m quite looking forward to the series, that I’ll look back at the past that shapes our society to this day, “he says representative of Běla Richard Němec.
„Such characterswhich I play in the series, regardless of skin color or ethnicity, they are still running around the world, only their behavior and practices have changed. They no longer have such brutal ways, but they continue to control society from their financial and political circles, “Is in agreement with the author of the topic, former head of the mordparty Josef Mareš.
He was quite in trouble during the filming.
„I messed up the filming plan and only on the set did I find out that I was filming my dialogue, which I hadn’t prepared for at all. thinking I’m filming it in a week. Fortunately, Martin Finger and I have already known each other from Činoherák in Ústí, and I have also shot Ondřej Sokol a few times before, and the director remained calm. Just because of that, I almost choked on cigarettes because we had to shoot it more than once. However maybe that’s how I caught Mr. Bela in his repulsion, “Added the German.
Czech television In addition to the feature series on ČT1, it will also broadcast the cycle Polovět on ČT2 every Thursday, which deals in detail with the crimes of the 1990s.
