Michael B. Jordan on Playing Human Torch in Fantastic Four
The Awkward Moment, Fruitvale Station and Chronicle star, Michael B. Jordan is now talking about playing the Human Torch in the upcoming Marvel reboot of the Fantastic Four.
CelebNMusic247.com the drop on Jordan who described his experience working on the movie to MTV, saying:
“Yeah, we have been pretty much in our own world, that’s really the only way we could get a project like this done.”
“It is so massive, so many moving parts, so many moving pieces, things are changing every day.”
Jordan had this to say about working with Chronicle director Josh Trank style:
“Josh’s vision is very clear and he knows exactly what he wants, and he gives us room to adapt and to play.”
“That’s what I kind of think sets us apart, is that this is going to be grounded and unconventional.”
Jordan describes how this new movie would be different from typical superhero films.
“It’s not your typical superhero film, you know, we aren’t looking at this as like, being superheroes,” he said. “We’re more or less a bunch of kids that had an accident and we have disabilities now that we have to cope with, and try to find a life afterwards – try to be as normal as we can.”
In regards to Trank surprising fans at San Diego Comic-Con later this month, he adds:
“No clue,” he said. “I haven’t even seen anything on set, okay? And I’m here.”
