Zack Sharf Digital News Director Aaron Taylor-Johnson graces the latest cover of Rolling Stone UK ahead of what is going to be a busy rest of the year for the 33-year-old actor. He’s got a supporting role in “The Fall Guy” (in theaters May 3 from Warner Bros), he’s headlining the superhero movie “Kraven the Hunter” (in theaters Aug. 30 from Sony) and he’s part of Robert Eggers’ “Nosferatu” ensemble (in theaters Dec.
25 from Focus Features). “Kraven” offers Taylor-Johnson an opportunity to launch a new superhero franchise after a single appearance as Pietro Maximoff in the Marvel Cinematic Universe courtesy of 2015’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” “I think there was something unique about this character, and something grounded,” Taylor-Johnson told the publication about tackling Kraven. “We’ve all had enough of seeing certain studio films, a certain kind of pop culture… where they’re churning out stuff that dilutes wanting to go to the cinema.
I wouldn’t have signed onto it if I felt there wasn’t something to really bring to life with this character.” “Taking on a Sony / Marvel movie is a different challenge altogether,” he added later in the interview. “There’s the story, the character, the role; that’s one thing. But then you also step into a world where you’re dealing with a studio and a franchise — or possible franchises, though let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
So, they’re rolling the dice on me, in a sense, which is a lovely thing. But you’ve got to appease the studio, please the audience and do what’s dignified for you as an actor. I find all of that super challenging.” Another potential franchise on the horizon for Taylor-Johnson is James Bond.
