#PEDRO PASCAL WONDER WOMAN MOVIE#
What can you to do to ensure that your bad guy is more than just mustache twirling in a movie like this? Although I’m sure Gal has an incredible time. It depends of course - we are shaping heroes in so many different ways and furthering our definition of what is heroic, so the distinction between the two of them isn’t as completely defined as it has been in the classical narratives of good against evil, you know? But yeah, exploring dark things that shouldn’t be explored in actual life can be a little bit more fun than being the hero. It must be nice to be seen as the hero onscreen, but it seems like it's usually a lot more fun to play the villain. It’s, how do you be your best self? How do you win? And he's definitely the face of that version of success. I mean, just in Los Angeles, whether it be from this kind of therapy, to this kind of food, and that kind of diet, or colonics or whatever - I'm probably dating myself because I don't even know what the current trend is, but you know what I mean. Tony Robbins never came up, but Max is definitely a little bit of a self-made guru and a dream seller, you know? Which became such a part of the ‘80s at the height of capitalist culture, where you could kind of sell anything. When I was shown wardrobe and concept pictures of you on set in London I asked, "So is he sort of a Gordon Gekko?" And they said, "Yes, partly, but also there's a lot of Tony Robbins." Were those things that were said to you as well? That's not something that I've seen before. Which I think represents a huge part of our culture and the kind of unabashed - I guess many would identify it as greed? It is f-ing greed, of course! But what's brilliant is to humanize that, to build a whole character around the concept. It's definitely a character who encompasses an era and a component of the era, which is “Get whatever you want however you can, and you're entitled to it,” at any cost ultimately. Without spoilers, what are you allowed to tell me about Max? So I only worked with Patty like four days on that, and then it didn't get picked up and they became nobodies, the both of them. It was also a character that didn't have a lot to do in the first episode and of course was going to grow and take over the show. PEDRO PASCAL: Yeah, it was actually an incredible pilot called Exposed for ABC that was written by Charles Randall, who wrote Bombshell and got the Oscar for The Big Short. Over two conversations, the Chilean-born actor, 45, spoke to EW (spoiler-free!) about the philosophy of greed, the risks of at-home hair coloring, and how he learned to build a Lord worthy of the screen.ĮNTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: We’re going to get to Maxwell in a second, but this isn’t your first time working with Patty Jenkins, is that true? theaters and on HBO Max this Friday) - and as the storied comic-book villain Maxwell Lord, no less.
