parasites and snowpiercer Director Bong Joon-ho takes over twilight Heartthrob-turned-serious actor Rob Pattinson to star in his upcoming movie science fiction movies Mickey 17 It tells the story of a man who is cloned and kills a bunch of people in outer space. Pattinson apparently tried out some really funky voices for two of the clones, but Bong Joon-ho turned them down.
“My original idea was to do Steve-O and Johnny Knoxville impressions [from Jackass]”, Pattinson Tell empire in a new interview. “I love Steve-O’s voice. We did it on the first read-through. That voice sounded like nails on a blackboard,” Bong said. ” I was like, “Is this a good thing?” “He said, ‘No.
Because each of the titular Mickeys (a down-on-his-luck blue-collar worker turned colony ship test subject) was played by Pattinson, he had to find ways to differentiate between each numbered version. “I just think he’s kind of like a dog with a complete lack of self-worth,” he said. “He kept showing up, reporting for work. But what I hope to reveal is that it was a combination of deep, misguided guilt and survival. He just said, ‘I’m going to keep lowering my expectations.’
Pattinson ended up finding equally unlikely inspiration for the voices of Mickey 17 and Mickey 18. “[Mickey 17 is] Kind of like Stimpy,” he told empirea reference to the absurd 90s Nickelodeon story about a chihuahua and a cat. “When 18 comes in, it’s a bit like Ren.” Mickey 17 will be released on January 31, 2025, but if you want to know about Pattinson’s inspiration The Ren & Stimpy Show Currently streaming on Paramount+.
