Angelina Talks Nudity During Beowulf Press Conference
Angelina sparkled during a Beowulf press conference. Is it bad that I’m stoked to be wearing a similar outfit tomorrow? I digress.
The movie version of the epic poem done completely in CGI. Angelina’s character, Grendal’s mother is nearly nude and nude, during the movie. That’s what happens when you are a cunning lizard/woman. Clothes are oppositional.
Even though it’s not actually Angie in the movie she admits she was a bit shy after seeing the finished results.
“I got a little shy,â€? she said during Saturday’s press conference. “I was really surprised that I felt that exposed.”
It was so startling she called Brad to warn him. “There are certain moments where I felt actually shy – and called home, just to explain that the fun movie that I had done that was digital animation was, in fact, a little different than [what] we expected.”
Angelina actually worked less than three days on the actual film. She was three months pregnant at the time. They’d done the bodymapping bit, where they put electrical probes all over Angelina, prior to her voice work.
Though it was only few days of work, Angelina learned middle English for the part.
Beowulf is an epic poem that details the adventures of a great Scandinavian warrior. It only exists in one manuscript that has survived fire and destruction of artifacts during the reign of Henry VIII.
Beowulf opens on November 16th and also stars Anthony Hopkins, John Malkovich, Ray Winstone and Robin Wright Penn. Tomorrow’s red carpet is going to be packed full of A-listers.
Check out the rest of the conference pics.
