James Marsters spoke in an interview at Dragon Con ‘08 and mentioned a bit about his role in the Dragonball movie.

The character he most liked was Piccolo. He said that with “Dragonball” he was more involved (he said he didn’t really offer a lot of ideas, etc. to the directors of “P.S. I Love You” and just wanted to do a good job unlike all the other stars of the show) and that he was constantly hashing things out with the director. He also mentioned that his stunt double did only one stunt for him and that the rest of the time he was the one making those leaps, etc. He mentioned that he was showing off for his girlfriend and the room kinda deflated. *grin* Then, after all that, he was like, “I liked Spike too.” (So do we, James. So do we.)

Not sure what question was asked, but he mentioned that he had a fear of being smothered. Apparently the helmets he wore while being an astronaut got him panicked. That he’d go back to his room and have the shakes and a good cry. (Poor guy. But, I can sooo relate to that feeling.)

He was asked about his height being a problem. (This was asked at the Q & A prior to his concert in London.) He gave the same answer, for the most part. Saying that he’d commented to his son that if he was six feet tall, his son would be going to Harvard. He added that A’s were going to be needed for him to get in now.

He mentioned that he was more comfortable on stage, and that it was a lot more fun. That with film, you didn’t perform/act, but were just yourself.

He was asked how he prepared for Piccolo. He mentioned that he’d seen all the episodes with his son, sometimes more than once, that he liked the “message” of the show. That peaceful, humble men =/= weak. Said it was a good message for young men growing up in today’s world, especially in the US.

Geeks of Doom and Live Journal reports from the second day of Dragon Con with another Marsters Q&A.

He said that the most enjoyable show to shoot of all was DragonBall because he didn’t really have a stunt man and did 99% of the stunts himself and he was scared to death the entire time (he said he has a weird sense of fun ;)).

“I didn’t have to do very much research,” he said of the film. “I have a son, so I’ve probably watched every single episode of Dragon Ball.”

 

The story was something Marsters really identified with, he said, adding that Goku’s nature to choose violence only as a last resort was a trait all young boys should be exposed to.

“Having said that, the hyper-violence of Dragon Ball has to be there, but in the right context,” he said. “I’ve had debates with my son about it.”

Coming Soon.net has reported from FOX that the trailer for the live action Dragonball movie will be shown with the upcoming movie, Max Payne, which is set to be released October 17th.

ComingSoon.net has learned that 20th Century Fox will debut the first trailer for Dragonball in theaters on October 17 with the studio’s video game adaptation Max Payne, starring Mark Wahlberg. We’ll have to wait and see whether Fox will release the trailer online earlier that week.

IGN Confirms

The first teaser trailer for the live-action feature film version of Dragonball will reportedly hit theaters in October. A studio source informed IGN that, while Oct. 17 is Fox’s “target date,” nothing is guaranteed until the special effects and requisite approvals are in place.

DBTheMovie has translated another portion of the October Issue of Roadshow. This time we get interviews from Chow Yun Fat and Emmy Rossum. We also get a more detailed plot summary with possible spoilers.

Chow Yun-Fat interview
He saw the Japanese magazine which the press brought from Japan, the cover girl is Japanese actress Akina Minamai, and said, “Oh! Master Roshi loves her! Kawaii nee! (Cute, in Japanese)” he laughed and sat back in the chair and said in a deep voice “Welcome to Durango! Nice to meet you!”

He then talked about the Character of Master Roshi, “He is funny, very funny. (laugh) This is the first time to play a manga character in my career. Comic and movie is different, so I hope you will like my acting.”

And about his preparation for the role, “The script was very well written, I didn’t worry about it. Character is very fascinating and dramatic. The important thing for an actor is not money or work, but whether the character is fascinating or not.” He explained the similarities between him and Master Roshi, “He and I love ladies. But my wife is always around me, so I can’t be looking at ladies so much.”

He gave his opinion on Justin Chatwin, “I think he is handsomer than the manga character. I’m sure that the fans of the original manga will love him. And you guys, what did you think when you heard I would play Master Roshi?” the press said they were very surprised.

Chow replied with, “Who do you think suits the role of Master Roshi?” NO! Chow Yun-Fat is best! “Cheers! I will treat you to dinner later. Anyway, the movie is an adventure following the original manga and animation. Thank you for your support.”

Emmy Rossum interview

I am a big fan of Bulma. Because she is very energetic, sexy, and has a strong will. I think it is an honor to play the girl who is drawn as one of the smartest girls in the world. I will make the best use of her intellect, high motivation and reckless character which are drawn in the original in my acting. But because this is the live action movie, I have to do a little more three-dimensional acting.

I hope I can rightly play Bluma who the fans saw and loved, and I want to make them happy. I know how much responsibility I have, and I have a great love for her. I think I resemble her. Both of us will do what we decide to do, and we are fascinated with the boys. And we have a passion for the goal of our life and carry a torch for it.

She gave her opinion on Justin Chatwin, “I think he is wonderful. He acts the change of Goku growing up gradually very well. He, as well as us, was researching quite a lot to be able to play Goku properly.”

“Shooting is very fun. In a chasing scene, I had to hang down from height of 10 meters. That was a very exciting experience. It was a lot of fun to study. How cool am I since I can shoot a gun or ride a motorcycle for action scenes? (laugh).”

About the three-wheele motorcycle, “Well, it’s like a snowmobile with tires. It’s very powerful and can run at a maximum speed of 240 kilometers per hour. After the end of shooting I will bring it back home.(laugh)”
