Approved design of #Sentry for the #thunderbolts film. Had the thankful opportunity of helping bring this character to the big screen. Led by the amazing @andyparkart, director of visual development. I am incredibly proud to have worked alongside amazing artists such as @constantinesekeris @rodneyimages @jwsze @wes_burt @janaschirmer @jihyeleeart @jsmarantz #concept #characterconcept #marvelstudios #film
What’s next for Lewis Pullman as The Sentry?
Lewis Pullman has confirmed to be a part of the 27-member cast of Avengers: Doomsday along with his fellow Thunderbolts – New Avengers Florence Pugh as Yelena, Wyatt Russell as John Walker, David Harbour as Red Guardian, and Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost. What remains to be seen is whether Robert Reynolds will be showing up or The Sentry, or even his evil alter ego, The Void.
Lewis Pullman on Wearing the Sentry Suit and Preparing for the Role
Pullman spoke with Marvel prior to the release of Thunderbolts and talked about first trying on the suit.
“It felt like it was Memento or something,” Pullman said with a laugh. “I woke up like, ‘Where am I? What am I doing?’ But after I first put on [the suit], I was like, ‘Can I just get five minutes to walk around in this thing and feel like it’s mine?’ It took a minute. You never really imagine yourself in one of those suits. You always see somebody else in them, and it always seems far away from reality.”
Pullman added, “It was more of a physical journey than I thought it [would be] going into it. I really went into the psychology of [the character] at first. Then, I realized it was helpful to be able to use that physicality to indicate who’s at the wheel at what point. That was a really fun thing to do and a challenging thing to track.”
