The Avengers franchise has been the shining light of the Marvel Cinematic Universe since it really took off as a shared universe, and one franchise star has now revealed that their iconic performance in a pivotal Avengers arc was inspired by a surprising source.
The Avengers are the backbone of Marvel Studios’ offerings and will likely remain so for a long while, with even massive changes to the MCU’s future not affecting this prominence. This position was cemented with the Infinity Saga that happened over the first three phases of the MCU and saw the rise of Thanos as well as a large cast of heroes, villains and more. While the films were well structured to a point, many agree that the films owe their massive success to the stellar performances and star power of the cast as well as the dedication and professionalism of the crew.
One such pivotal performance was by Avengers star Ross Marquand, who played an older Red Skull tasked with guarding one of the enigmatic infinity stones. Speaking with ComicBook,Marquand revealed why his performance as the Red Skull in Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame was so drastically different from Hugo Weaving’s previous well-received rendition, crediting the Russo brothers for giving him the right view on the character. «They were great, and they gave me the best direction, because once I figured out what it was, I was thinking, 'I gotta do a straight voice match to what Hugo [Weaving] did in [Captain America:] The First Avenger,' which is very pitched,» Marquand revealed. «And the Russo brothers really stopped me, quickly, and they said, 'No, no, no, no, this is a broken version of that character. He's 80 years older but he's cursed with infinite knowledge, and now he can fly and he's got all these other powers, kind of like a phantom.' He then reveals where the Russos found the inspiration for his eventual performance.
So they said, I think it was Joe Russo, he said, 'I want you to infuse a bit of Yoda into this character, not voice-wise, but a creature that had been around for over a thousand years,' and I thought, 'Ah, okay.' And that's what brought the high-clipped, nasally, German tone down into something of this creature that had been alive and seen everything and just cursed with all this pain and knowledge, but could do nothing with it. Like Atlas holding up the Earth, he wants the [Infinity] Stones so badly but he can't attain them now.»
Infinity War was a massive success on par with Avatar 2, and the tone set by Marqunad’s performance played a key role in turning up the emotional stakes of the film. Thinking along the lines that the Russos did, Yoda is the perfect mold for a time-worn character who’s seen it all. The venerable Jedi Master, who has, by his
