Tonight on TV: Bob Odenkirk’s very physical role

Every day, AlloCiné recommends watching a movie (again) on TV. Tonight: The “Better Call Saul” star plays an action hero.

Bob Odenkirk, who appeared in Breaking Bad as the crooked lawyer Saul Goodman, then became the star of a spin-off centered around his character. The 58-year-old actor’s performance marked the public’s first foray into an action film with Nobody. Heretofore uncharted territory for an actor who just wanted to step out of his comfort zone: the one who was the speaker of Better Call Saul is now talking fists… and powder.

Bob Odenkirk, who also produced, lends his qualities to Hutch Mansell, a seemingly normal family man who nevertheless has the physical skills of Jason Bourne or John Wick. After a bus robbery and brawl, he finds himself in a spiral of violence against the Russian mafia…

For the role, the actor trained for two years, long before the film’s pre-production, because he wanted to do his own stunts (in the image of Jackie Chan, of whom he is a big fan. : without oversights or special effects). It was Daniel Bernhardt, the fight manager who directed John Wick and Atomic Blonde, who took charge of his training, as a reference, with the character of Wolverine.
