Whilst talking about his next project Easy A, Tucci talks to ScreenCrave about his part in the movie which sees the actor wearing custome to make him more elderly:
“When they asked me to play him initially I was like ‘Is that like a compliment or is that an insult? I don’t know?’”… “I shot with Chris [Evans], and Dominic Cooper, and Tommy Lee Jones and Hayley Atwell. I love the role. It’s really well written. I’d never done anything like that before. I’ve always wanted to do a German accent. It’s so much fun. It’s really interesting. Very good script, great experience. I was shooting it in London and I go back in a month and a half.”
Tucci also spoke to MTV and a few more things where found out as well:
“Joe Johnston is a wonderful guy and I love the way he’s shooting it, it’s really interesting, it’s beautiful-looking There’s a real power to it and the design is stunning.”
