The animated film version of Robert Krequis in 2007 at Beuulf, based on the old English song, was one of the previous films to use such a widespread use of the then real technology to capture the CGI movement. Kabekis seemed to feel that the Mo-Cap was the future of filming the film and used it to animate Tom Hanks' CGI versions at his Christmas in 2004 "The Polar Express". After "Beulf", Zabekis continued to experiment, using it in his animated film in 2009 "Christmas Carroll" and then again in His biopic based in the "Welcome to Marvin" dolls. Zabekis, in the last 20 years, is mostly stuck with unusual technological experiments that lead what the cinema media can do. Some of his experiments are successful (3D in the "walk" is some of the best ever), and some are not ("Here" he sucked), but I can at least admire the attempt to reach higher.

Beulf was not completely successful, despite his ambition. He tried to turn the well -worn ancient song you read in high school in a modern EP action. Ray Winston played by "Beuulf's Voice", portraying him as a muscular comic book hero. Chrispin Glover played Grandel and was allowed to speak old English. Angelina Ololi played Grandel's mother as naked, gilded seducer, and Anthony Hopkins plays Beuulf's father, Farotgar. The film also shows the versions of Mon Malkovich, Robin Wright, Allison Loman, Brendan Gleeson and Dominic Keating of Star Trek: Enterprise.

It can be seen that Winston, although an incredible actor, does not play the massive, muscle physics that Beulf makes in the film. And while the MO-Cap Tech really changed the Winston frame to look like a bodybuilder, Kabisis, perhaps for an extra note of Verizba, used a real man and his movements as his visual reference.

The real human reference to Beulf's cold body was no one but Alan Richson, now best known for his role in the hit TV series "Reacher".

Since he was just a body model and did not actually make any of the admission itself that acted himself, Richson actually doesn't have a Beulf credit. His professional career in acting on the screen has just begun until 2007, and at that moment, he was only one in 2006 called the "butcher" and in the anthology romantic drama "Steam". Richson would eventually do some of his own moles in action The 2014 version of "Teen Mutant Ninja Turtles" (He played Rafael), but for "Beulph", he was more or less stopped.

Richson was asked about Beulf during A recent video interview with WiredAnd he reminded the gig well. He said:

"What you saw on the screen, it was me. However, I didn't have to make the voice. I was fresh in LA and I would like to be a part of it, yet. Me, from me, from me, from me, from me, from me, from me, was great.

Richson has a point. Except for Grandel and Beulf, all the actors in Mo-Cap in the film of P. Despite this, Richson is not the least bitter for work, happy to have been involved in such a high -profile film, so early in his career. He also remembers being kind of strange, saying:

"The process is so crazy. They take pictures of you moving, you don't move, with clothes and no clothes. It was incredible."

Richson became known in 2004 for a striptease he performed on American Idol and decided to stay in LA to continue acting. He was thrown like Jackec Reeker in 2022And it has become increasingly known about it. Know that it is its beautiful, wet, dripping chest on the CGI display, however, the next time you see "Beulf".
