Our favorite bad vamp Michael Sheen sat down with Moviehole.com and talked about the Damned United (the current film he is promoting) but he also had time to mention The Twilight Saga : New Moon (and important to me as well, Alice in Wonderland). *squeeee* Here is some of the interview:
>”New Moon” is obviously one of these – the franchise that is so highly anticipated. How prepared are you for the – for the response to a movie like that? I mean, do you ever prepare yourself, or do you just go with the flow?
Sheen: I just go with the flow, really. I mean, there’s certainly a lot of media attention on it, because obviously, everyone I do an interview with wants to ask about it. So I’m aware of that and I’m aware that there’s a very passionate and devoted following, which includes my own daughter. So , I’m looking forward to being a part of all that. I enjoyed making the film. I like the character very much. I’m very much looking forward to the decibel level I’ve been told about coming from the “Twilight” fans at the premiere.
What about ”Wonderland”? How much fun was it, working on that?
Sheen: It was great. All the animal characters in “Alice in Wonderland” are CGI and animated. So, we’re just providing the voices, really. And – and a bit of then – they filmed sort of some of our movements and stuff, to help with the animation. But ultimately, it’s mainly the vocal work. So it was just such an honor and a pleasure to – to be part of a Tim Burton film. I’ve been – you know, a massive fan of his. And – to get to work with him on Alice in Wonderland was sort of – you know, it’s a marriage made in heaven, really. Tim Burton and Alice in Wonderland. So, it was great. I wish I could have been involved even more.
What surprised you the most about working with Tim?
Sheen: Gosh. There were no real surprises. I know he’s a phenomenally talented and incredibly creative and imaginative guy. And I wasn’t disappointed in that. He’s a very nice man, and very – very warm, very generous, and very – just really pleasant to be with.
I’m almost as excited about Alice and Wonderland as I am about New Moon. Almost.
