OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
Today I’m talking to Ellen Arden. She’s a makeup artist who helped create the completely original world of Marvel’s WEREWOLF BY NIGHT.
Just when we think we’ve seen it all — a movie comes along that takes an old form and re-shapes it in such a different way that it’s suddenly thrilling/really exciting…in this instance, I’m talking about WEREWOLF BY NIGHT. It’s a crazy experiment by Marvel Studios, and the directorial debut of composer Michael Giacchino. Gael Garcia Bernal stars along with a flawless cast of actors. It’s both beautiful homage to the black & white Universal monster movies of old, and a genre mashup. The result is an action-horror film that feels like AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON meets THE HATEFUL EIGHT.
Ellen who created a murderer’s row of faces for this film. Because in this rogue’s gallery, all of our character’s faces and war paint are how we meet them, and ultimately how we understand them.
She’s a master makeup artist whose other credits include: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL.3, HAWKEYE, FEAR STREET, & OZARK.
It’s a great talk!
