The history of the 2008 SCI-Fi Misfire "Jumper" from "Edge of Tomorrow" and the director of "Bourne Identity" Doug Liman is one suppressed with the necessary, could, and even several cans in its history, especially about his casting. The film saw Hayden Christensen and Jameimi Bell lead the road as a pair of heroes with the possibility of teleport, while the ancient order of hunters leads Samuel L. Acksexone. It was even deals with a sequel that has never happened. Talking to MTV News (through Today), however, Liman recalled that the legendary rapper Eminem approached him for a role before Christensen to get the call to skip the project.
"We had a meeting. We had talks with Eminem," Liman recalls, who hinted that he was more than suggestion in the studio than someone he actually searched. "At that moment, I already met Hayden and everything about Injubiv in Hayden," Liman explained. "It was one of those things where the studio, with all things equals, would rather put a bigger name in the movie (and I wanted Eminem). At some point, I just slipped my leg and said," I love Hayden. "It is not to say that the Rap Starvers has no longer revealed that he had acting chops after delivering an impressive performance in the semiatobigraphic performance in the semiatobigraphic performance in the semiatobigraphic performance in the semiatobigraphic" 8 Mile "8 Mile". It would not be the first and last project to which he approached to join.
Eminem approached to join the feature films, but passed all of them
If Christensen was not so high on Limon's coveted list of Limon, the director made it clear that he could handle anyone who ended up in the role of Christensen, David Rice, even if that meant Marshall Matters. "If I have proven something for myself, it is that I can adjust the role of the actor ... to develop the role ... and make it extremely specific to them," Liman explained. "So, as long as the person has acting chops, I am open to talk to almost every role."
"Jumper" would not end up like the only movie Eminem had passed or considered. Over the years, Matters approached some very interesting films, including "Fast and Furious", Taking the role in "Elysium" before Matt Damonand even Titular Road "Crazy Max: Hurry Road" before Tom Hardy takes the lead. Another film that included a long -term time until the last minute was not difficult in the boxing drama, "Southpaw", where he remained on the ship as an executive producer before Jake Gyllenhal replaced it. Since then, we had to settle for a few clads here and there in Adam Sandler's beloved "funny people" and recently, "Happy Gilmore 2." Perhaps, however, if he was given a better chance for "Jumper", Eminem could turn the neglected science film into the franchise that had every opportunity to be.
