1905 movie network news Hollywood explosive comedy released a set of full-time stills today. Many basketball superstars in the film can’t see their old faces after special effects makeup, but everyone is still poised and ready to go. Kyrie irving, shaquille o’neal, chris webber, reggie miller, nate robinson, lisa leslie and many other basketball superstars co-starred. The sports comedy Uncle Drew, jointly produced by Lionsgate Film and PepsiCo, was previously scheduled to be released in the mainland on January 11th.
The star disguised as an old man and turned into a "Wolverine"
Among all the stills exposed today, the film Uncle Drew, on the one hand, retains the original traditional style of the advertising short film series of the same name, on the other hand, it also adds many refreshing characters: you can see the classic characters of Uncle Drew appear, and you can also see the funny shapes of all kinds of people inside and outside the stadium. In the picture, "Uncle Drew" (kyrie irving) and the "shoes" (nate robinson) standing next to him can’t hide their complacent arrogance even under the appearance of over-aged uncle; In addition, the "A Guang" (reggie miller) wearing a hat and sunglasses in the photo seems to be deliberately spoofed in front of the camera, and even the "big guy" (shaquille o’neal) standing behind him with the ceiling is amused; In addition, the female characters in the picture are also quite eye-catching. "Betty Lu" (Lisa Leslie) and "Maya" (Erica Ash) are matched with one old and one young, and the combination of one rigid and one soft is full of contrast and fun.
In other stills, I saw that Uncle Drew, played by kyrie irving, wore a glistening wig and a false beard, but his skills and acting skills were excellent, and he was the best actor among the new generation of stars. At first glance, this image looked like Morgan Freeman, and his acting skills were also close to it. The Taekwondo coach played by shaquille o’neal has a high hairstyle and looks like "Grandpa Wolverine". He feels that claws will grow from his hands in the next second, leaving three marks on basketball; Reggie miller is driving with "sunglasses", grinning and revealing a shining gold tooth; And nate robinson, who doesn’t forget to hold basketball in her wheelchair; The priest played by chris webber smiled and pointed to "God", perhaps praying for the last laugh in this competition; Lisa Leslie, who plays the pastor’s wife, got out of the car with a baseball bat and was aggressive. This series of stills makes people wonder what kind of jokes this "the strongest team in history" will bring to us in the film.
Three-hour aging 50-year-old protagonist reveals special effects makeup
As early as during the filming, chris webber held a live broadcast on social platforms to reveal the special effects makeup of the film for many fans and fans who are looking forward to the film. He said frankly in the live broadcast: Before each shooting, it takes three hours of special effects makeup to restore the role age required for the film setting. Chris webber mentioned that the makeup removal process is simpler than makeup, but it will take more than an hour. While the makeup artist skillfully removed the rubber and other veneer materials from his face, he did not forget to broadcast the propaganda message of the movie, and counted the roles played by the stars in the movie again.
In the advertisement short film of the predecessor of the movie Uncle Drew, kyrie irving’s makeup process was shown in 30 seconds, and in a short time, a lot of makeup materials were seen on kyrie irving’s face and body in a quick cut. Although the whole process looks very relaxed and interesting, it must be very hard for actors and staff.
