“I’ve been loving The Last of Us, they really killed it with that show,” Harbour said of his recent watches. “We occupy a certain realm of the DaddyVerse. I know [Pedro Pascal] very well, actually.”
Harbour then went on to explain what sets his upcoming Gran Turismo apart from the other video game adaptations, revealing it’s not about the game itself but rather, a biopic of someone who played the game and became an award-winning driver.
“In general, video game movies are really hard and when they pitched me the idea of Gran Turismo, [I thought] that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard because it’s just a simulator,” the actor continued. “The thing is, it’s a real story who played the game and ended up winning Le Mans, so it’s a sports story.”
Harbour also spoke about one of his other upcoming projects, Marvel’s Thunderbolts, which is set to begin filming in a matter of weeks. According to Harbour, the film is unlike anything Marvel’s ever done before.
“It’s really good. Marvel’s changing it up,” Harbour revealed about the MCU film.. They’re always surprising, but this particular team knows what they’re doing. What this means in the universe is its own thing, but the team itself and the way they come together, it’s very different from any other Marvel movie I’ve seen.”
Thunderboltsย is set for release on July 26, 2024.
