Alan Cumming recounts the mind -blowing turning conditions of Avengers: Doomsday

“Half of the time I didn’t even know with whom I played,” says the actor who plays Diablo.

22 years later X-Men 2Alan Cumming finds the character of Diablo and the Marvel universe. He is one of the mutants to return to the cast ofAvengers: Doomsdaywhose filming is still in progress. The first part of the diptych will be released in the cinema in December 2026, then Avengers: Secret Wars will follow in December 2027.

Cumming, he finished his shots. And he returned to this strange experience during an interview with the Gold Derby Awards site. Constrained by his calendar, the Scottish actor, known for his roles in Goldeneye,, Spy Kids or the series The Good Wifecould not drag on the set and he does not really know what he turned!

“”I made the whole film in isolation, with a lot of green funds and replacement of faces. They even gave false names to the characters. Half of the time I didn’t even know who I played with. I broke the internet speaking of something once, but honestly, maybe I’m wrong.“”

Alan Cumming refers to the spoiler he had dropped a few weeks ago (a fight between Diablo and Reed Richards). Pedro Pascal had changed it on this leak on the set of the Jimmy Kimmel Live, and the two actors drowned the fish saying that they are never beaten during the shooting. Not “directly” anyway …

These unorthodox shooting conditions are common in blockbusters rich in digital special effects. It is not always easy for the actors. We remember the famous interview with Ian McKellen who had revealed that he had cried on the hobbit plateau because he could no longer.

For Alan Cumming, it was not a problem. On the contrary, he entrusted to People that the shooting ofAvengers: Doomsday had been “repairer“For him, after the bad memory he had kept from X-Men 2 Because of the problematic behavior (euphemism) of Bryan Singer and the hours of makeup necessary to transform it into Kurt Wagner.

“”It was really great to come back. I am 60 years old and I did not think that I will do waterfalls, so it was great. Everyone was very nice. I had to shoot very quickly because of The Treatments“, the reality show that Cumming runs and which has been appointed five times to the next Emmy Awards.
