Here’s what it’s like to work with Samuel L. Jackson in ‘The Hateful Eight’.
The Hateful Eight doesn’t make it’s wide release until a few more days, but Quentin Tarantino’s latest movie has had more drama than an episode of the Jersey Shore. The movie’s script and movie was leaked online and the movie was boycotted by the police. But, outside of all of this drama, Quentin Tarantino’s new movie is being called “devilishly good.” One of the actor’s standing out from the rest is Samuel L. Jackson.
So, it begs the question; What is it like working with Samuel L. Jackson?
Well, in a newly released featurette centering around Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), a former union soldier turned “infamous bounty hunter.” In the video, Jackson unpacks his character’s motivations – “he joined the war, he says, to kill white, Southern crackers, but he killed pretty much anybody who got in his way”
But, the video also shows what it’s like to work with Samuel L. Jackson with the cast and crew revealing Jackson’s acting process. “Sam is one of those very few people that sometimes can get Quentin to step outside of the words on the page,” says director of photography Bob Richardson. “That level of respect I’ve only seen with Sam.”
Even Kurt Russell praised Jackson’s acting. “I really looked forward to working with Sam because he’s a bold actor,” says Russell. “He’s inventive, creative. He’s right there with you, for you. You should be there for him.”
As the highest grossing actor in Hollywood, you have to trust Samuel L. Jackson’s acting process!
