Alan Cumming Teases “Game Changer” In Makeup Process For Nightcrawler Return In ‘Avengers: Doomsday’: “It’s Going To Be Nuts”
Alan Cumming is returning to the Marvel universe to reprise his Nightcrawler role in Avengers: Doomsday.
“Actually, what’s great about it, it was four and a half to five hours before, and now it was 90 minutes,” he said, before explaining that “before all the tattoos were done by hand because they hadn’t decided on thm before we started filming and now there are all these little things that stick on — it’s a game changer.” The actor will also reunite in the new Avengers movie with his co-stars including Patrick Stewart (Charles Xavier / Professor X), Ian McKellen (Magneto), Alan Cumming (Nightcrawler), Rebecca Romijn (Mystique), and James Marsden (Cyclops). “The character is really interesting, the message of the film (tolerance of others who are different from us) was very timely and unusual for a Hollywood blockbuster, but the real drag was having to spend over four hours a day having two men poke my face,” Cumming said.
