In Bloodshot, Heughan’s Dalton becomes a centerpiece of the film especially late in the game. His enhanced former soldier uses a technologically advanced rig which can only be compared to a Doc Ock type of outfit, something which Heughan opened up about experiencing from the set. “We had this amazing suit that was built by Weta and actually initially, when we started shooting, we had puppeteers and all these arms were actually moving and we started to shoot it like that,” Heughan told ComicBook.com. “We realized after a while, you know, six guys trying to work on this fight, operating all these arms is pretty difficult, so eventually it was just the backpack and they CGI’d the arms, but actually that makes it even harder because you’re having to imagine where your arm is hitting and then reacting to that, but yeah, it was cool and as for the climbing, that was some wire work we did, which was really fun as well.” For more of such insight, be sure to follow the #QuarantineWatchParty hashtag on Twitter and Instagram!
