1
Ladies and gentlemen, that's a picture wrap on Bill Skarsgård.
2
Let's give him a hand.
3
I remember when we wrapped the first movie,
4
the last day of the shoot,
5
feeling like we did something special here.
6
Cheers, guys.
7
But you don't dare to trust that feeling,
8
because you're like, what if you're wrong?
9
What if this is a disaster,
10
and what if your performance is a disaster?
11
but then it shattered every expectation I think anyone had on it.
12
Obviously, it's a big deal to see that your vision succeeded.
13
It also gives you a lot of confidence for the bets that you're making on the second one.
14
Because you know what works and what doesn't.
15
Andy and I were talking about potential ideas for the sequel even
16
when we were doing the first one because we knew that we were going to do the second one.
17
And action.
18
Yeah, that's beautiful.
19
The chapter two.
20
I always wanted to make a scarier movie and crank up the horror aspects of it.
21
It was strange, because I'd been away from Pennywise for almost two years,
22
and then Andy wanted me to do a test for a VFX motion capture thing.
23
I've been away from the character for so long.
24
It's gonna be strange just like to go right back into it.
25
And I got the scene like the night before,
26
and Andy's on Skype because he's already in Toronto for pre-production.
27
He goes, you know, okay, action, you know.
28
And action!
29
Pennywise is just ever-present and just like exploded out of me.
30
I was surprised how much of him was just still there,
31
was just still there, because the first movie was so much for me was to figure out who the character was.
32
With Bill, he put so much of him into the creation.
33
The nuances in his face.
34
The spark in his eyes.
35
I really love sitting down with him and talking for hours about the character and the possibilities.
36
27 years, I dreamt of you,
37
I craved you, I missed you,
38
waiting for this very moment.
39
Time to flow.
40
In my preparation for the role the first time,
41
I applied all these sort of crazy psychology to the character.
42
There's a lot of scenes with Pennywise where it's just a physicality or a very technical thing.
43
And come on!
44
It's a tremendously physical performance.
45
He works really hard.
46
Just amazing.
47
It's balletic.
48
It's so good.
49
The scenes that I tend to really prefer are the ones where you can be a little bit more...
50
Subtle is the wrong word for this character, I think.
51
But where you can be a little bit more nuanced, maybe.
52
There's definitely more of those scenes in this one than there were in the first one.
53
A little closer.
54
One, two...
55
You okay?
56
You okay?
57
Let's do it one.
58
That's right here.
59
The Pennywise that we meet in the second movie is different from the book.
60
He's very defensive in the book.
61
He's offensive when they're kids,
62
and when they come back,
63
he's sort of trying to scare them off.
64
So that shows weakness instantly,
65
because he obviously doesn't want them to be there,
66
because they do pose a threat to him because they almost defeated him the first time.
67
Grab hands.
68
And that works in the book,
69
but because of the way we're telling the story now in the two separate films,
70
This Pennywise, he really wants them back.
71
He's missed them.
72
Thank you for bringing them all back.
73
I can smell their fear.
74
I know what you are.
75
That's why I'm not afraid.
76
Obviously that would make for a pretty boring movie if all they do is,
77
oh, this is what we did the first time and did this exact same thing.
78
So for me it was really important that Pennywise needs to be this sort of arch-villain.
79
Oh, I know what you are, a madman.
80
He needs to be scary and he needs to be threatening.
81
So that was one of the challenges that we had to address.
82
I used Pennywise as a door opener for all the other things that these kids are scared of.
83
And Andy made the right decision to actually broaden the scope
84
and the kids see transformations of Pennywise that are his own artistic creations,
85
but they still relate to the various fears and phobias of the kids.
86
This is Vince Frose.
87
Vince is helping me to bring my nightmares to life.
88
And he's throwing a lot of his nightmares in, and it's quite scary.
89
We have a version of Pennywise where they're weakening him,
90
and he starts to deflate.
91
So Andy wanted him to be almost like a deflating balloon.
92
You're all grown up.
93
Andy comes up with these ideas that once you see it and once it's implemented,
94
it's just like, oh, this is crazy.
95
This is genius.
96
I like the fact that I'm trying to convince myself that I'm the leader of the future.
97
Yeah, let's do that.
98
Absolutely.
99
But you're also broken.
100
You're broken.
101
Yeah.
102
The idea was to get a small child to play the body part of Bill.
103
And then we had a replica of the kid's body.
104
And that was known as Pancake Head.
105
This is what is known in Stephen King's universe as the ritual of Chud.
106
And the ritual of Chud is when you staple intergalactic entities head to a piece of volcanic...
107
Just like that.
108
It worked!
109
Finally he becomes the spider.
110
It's the end of the battle.
111
In the first one we had like Pennywise as me.
112
We needed to up that, you know?
113
Like, they're adults.
114
The physicality needs to be more threatening.
115
So Andy came up with this creature that he essentially drew,
116
which is my face, a gigantic Pennywise face on this sort of spider-esque kind of body.
117
Andy's so good with designing creatures.
118
I got the Pennywise spider.
119
Yeah, you want to see him?
120
Yes.
121
I really love this frame.
122
Vince's contributions to the monster are really cool.
123
You can see how he integrated the costume into the anatomy of the spider.
124
But I also like the spirit of this drawing because it's grotesque and it's horrifying at the same time.
125
Yes!
126
Look out!
127
Now you're the one who's afraid.
128
At the end of the first movie,
129
Pennywise for the first time feels fear himself.
130
And that's why his last line in the movie is fear.
131
It's him realizing what that feeling is.
132
Fear.
133
So he uses fear to sort of season the flesh, if you will.
134
And he instills fear in children and in humans.
135
But he never actually understood what that was,
136
because he's never felt it before himself.
137
And I think that that is scary for him,
138
but it's also a thrill.
139
There's a craving.
140
He craves the losers that are now adults.
141
Because if this creature and this entity has lived for millions and millions of years,
142
it's a high to have an opponent that's matched him.
143
I feel like the way this movie ends,
144
at least from my perspective and the character,
145
he plants things and there's reasons for why things are happening.
146
And when the kids that are now adults,
147
when they think they're in control,
148
they're actually not in control.
149
And this is really scary.
150
If you talk about Pennywise's own subconscious or its own subconscious,
151
maybe wants to die or wants to cease to exist.
152
So at the very end of this movie,
153
maybe that was his goal all along.
154
And in that sense, Pennywise wins.
155
Thank you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
