New Hercules Hercules by 28-year-old Kellan Lutz breaks in theaters in January.
In an interview with Kellan ironically speaking about the preparation for this role: before the start of filming at all-about-everything the actor was less than a week, but he is in the frame - in fine fighting form.
What stereotypes Kellan had to overcome? After all, before him the role of Hercules in different years played many actors. Look at them.
The stereotypical image of Hercules with a pile of muscles led to this role a lot of bodybuilders.
It all started in 1958 when the movie "Hercules" and its sequel "Hercules Uninhibited" played by Steve Reeves.
Indian Dara Singh was known strong man is not only at home, but also around the world, giving performances and filming for posters. His Hercules shone in the eponymous film in 1964.
Charming and muscular Gordon Scott starred in "Hercules and the Princess of Troy" (1965), giving the image a new note of drama in the eyes of the hero, a demigod.
Then, by as much as 13 years the image of Hercules staked the actor and bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger, although much more successful, he felt, as Conan the Barbarian.
But his little refined image of Hercules in "Hercules in New York" (1970) was good - nice to still look at the pump over a perfect figure Arnie.
Former Green Monster Hulk athlete, f life - actor Lou Ferringhi stayed Hercules in 1983. And joins a gallery of actors, Hercules made a career quite a different character.
A breath of fresh air, Kevin Sorbo perfectly played the role of Hercules in several television movies (as well as in the TV series "The Legendary Journeys Hercules» 1995-1999).
It is his merit hero of the bodybuilder turned into a charming, sexy and a little romantic defender of the weak and the oppressed. His Hercules has a less impressive figure, but much more by a sense of sight, penetrating into the heart of fans Sorbo.
Young Ryan Gosling took the baton in the series "Young Hercules" in 1998. And just transformed the image of the hero - not swollen veins, no steep biceps, but the sea of charm and mocking the lazy eye. In addition, a bright blond Hercules was not even ever.
Sexy Paul Telfer embodied hero in 2005. And I must say, in his character suddenly revealed the emotional side of the hero - he looked like a bizarre and mystical at the same time with a strange chertovschinkoy eyes.
Finally, now there is a premiere in the cinema blockbuster "The Legend of Hercules" with Kellan Lutz in the title role. Kellan win the audience is no longer necessary - his previous role of vampire Emmett Cullen in the "Twilight Saga" has brought him popularity and love of the female audience.
Despite the fact that the role required intense training (to build muscle, master sword, ride a horse), Kellan prepared in just 6 days - before such a fact on the date it has set itself the film's director.
What happened at the new Hercules and what features he was able to give his character, it will be possible to estimate very soon - in the Russian premiere of the film will take place January 23.
