Bill Skarsgård, an accomplished actor known for his portrayal of Bill in “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” stars in the new film “Boy Kills World.” In this action-packed movie, directed by Moritz Mohr, Skarsgård plays the character of Boy – a deaf and voiceless orphan who seeks vengeance for his family’s murder.
Skarsgård’s performance is largely based on expressions and body language as he portrays Boy. To prepare for the role, he underwent a physical transformation, losing 20 pounds to build a lean and sinewy physique. Despite not having any spoken dialogue in the film, H. Jon Benjamin provides the character’s inner voice through his work on “Bob’s Burgers.”
“Boy Kills World” is described as gory and violent by Famke Janssen, who stars in the movie alongside Skarsgård and Brett Gelman. The cast also includes Jessica Rothe, Isaiah Mustafa, Andrew Koji, Yayan Ruhian, Michelle Dockery, and Brett Gelman. The film is set to release in theaters and offers themes of revenge, action, and martial arts.
In an interview with director Moritz Mohr and other cast members, they discuss their thoughts on the film and their favorite martial arts movies. “Boy Kills World” promises to be a unique cinematic experience that blends elements of action, drama, and dark humor.
Director Moritz Mohr aimed to create a film that he himself would enjoy watching. He was influenced by classic action films from his childhood such as “Die Hard” and “Lethal Weapon”. He wanted to bring those same thrilling experiences to life on screen with “Boy Kills World”.
Skarsgård was challenged by playing a character that is deaf and voiceless but rose to the occasion with his incredible acting abilities. His use of expressions and body language was crucial in bringing Boy to life on screen.
The film is not for everyone due to its graphic violence but it offers an exciting cinematic experience that will keep audiences engaged throughout. With its diverse cast including Jessica Rothe who plays Sarah Palmer’s daughter Laura Palmer from “Twin Peaks” it’s sure to have something for everyone.
Overall “Boy Kills World” promises to be an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride that fans of action films will not want to miss out on.
