HALLOWEEN KILLS (2021) Behind the Scenes / Making Of

Halloween Kills (BTS + firefighters scene rehearsal with James Jude Courtney as the Shape)

[@joshuaj.5844]

James Jude Courtney is honestly the best Michael Myers in the entire franchise even beating out Castle.

[@FaLkraydz]

They are working together, he said they share a lot with each other. So there's a lot of Castle in him. Plus, he's taller, which makes Michael Myers even better (my opinion).

[@pepperhead5557]

Watch your mouth

[@Neko_Miau]

Estoy de acuerdo contigo. Además es alto y impone es perfecto para interpretar a Michael Myers. Él es el mejor Michael Myers. 🤗🤗🤗saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾

[@fireballmafia4833]

@@FaLkraydz The original Michael (Nick Castle) is only 5”9’

[@robertnickerson5638]

I would definitely say that he’s the actor who approaches this character with the most reverence…it seems like he has a great deal of respect for the role…as for favorite Myers portrayal…that’s subjective I guess… I would place him second only to Castle…every actor that plays Michael Myers is basically using the mannerisms of Nick Castle as a reference point on how to approach the character…Castle unintentionally defined what the Shape is supposed to be 🎃🔪

James Jude Courtney makes me believe that a 60+ year old man could endure what Michael has.

[@michaelkeller6612]

60 isn’t that old. He could be 120 and it wouldn’t matter because he’s clearly supernatural to an extent.

[@Kaijufan360]

Yeah... I think it was for Michael's right eye.

[@thearthurmarston9897]

Dont think he’s “staying in character” he needs that one eye covered up so he can get used to fighting like that since Michael is missing an eye already.

[@CMDRBonbon]

There's a googly eye on it too, lol.

It's because they put a prosthetic over during the shoot. He had to get used to it to follow the choreography

[@scumknight6074]

Yeah, it made it seemed less like the firefighters were attacking one by one and more of how Michael was unstoppable.

[@Mysterio1412]

Yeah and longer. 20 seconds of fight. That scene was so hyped and seeing it made me stop watching right there

[@josephharbin9310]

Yeah lol. John wick truly changed the game of action and one take filming. No one. I mean no one does it better than the john wick movies. Find an action movie where one takes are more common and better throughout a movie I'll wait 😂

This is what I say when people bitch about Michael's age. I'm like, "you do know the guy who plays him is also in his 60s, right?" lmao

Ya well then you won’t believe what 60 year olds do at my FedEx job picking up 80pound boxes every 20 seconds for 8 hours a day.

I like how he wears an eye patch to stay in character since Michael Myers lost his eye even though as an audience There is absolutely NO WAY we could possibly know he is using both of his eyes

What I found weird is the circular saw couldn't have cut the firefighter since the guarded part was pushed into him. Not the blade. (Talking about the film scene)

[@kidder83]

The fucking googly eye on his eyepatch 😂😂😂

[@austinrea316]

You can see how muscular this guy is which makes his role of Michael Myers more terrifying

[@stickycherry96]

The eyepatch haha love it!

[@ItsBigBadMoneyBrad75]

In my opinion, I think both Nick Castle and James Jude Courtney alongside with Tyler Mane are the best actors to portray Michael Myers.

[@sakuraitonen5886]

I agree with James Jude Courtney and Nick Castle. Tyler Mane did fine with what was given to him, but he was just way too big for that role..

[@Virgo555]

Just Nick and James … only

[@emperor223]

@@sakuraitonen5886 that was the whole point, Tyler being a behemoth made him tenfold scarier
