The film "Bad Guys Forever" after many years gathered stars of the original franchise together, returning the audience to the viewers of Michael Loury's favorite detectives (Will Smith) and Marcus Bernett (Martin Lawrence). But, of course, it was not to do without Captain Howard, which Joe Pantoliano plays.
Unfortunately, one character from this legendary troika did not live to the final titles, and for the fans of "bad guys" it became a real shock. As it turned out, for Adil, El Arbi and Bilal Fallah, the death of Captain turned out to be a nursing shock. In a recent interview with ComicBook, directors admitted that they could not believe what was happening when the script was read.
We were killed by grief, and then wanted to make this moment so seemingly as possible, as far as possible
- told El Arbi.
The director admitted that on the day when the scene was shot by the death of Howard, the situation on the site was "very calm and solemn, everyone was very focused and sad."
After all, you imagine how this hero will appear in the fourth film, but it will not be there
- noticed Adil. Nevertheless, the death of the character was symbolic. He managed to talk to Mike and do everything to convince him to change.
Captain Howard has always been a Mike's father, and this is the first time he does not shout, but really trying to reach him,
- Stressed the director.
In the final of the film, Smith's character really listened to the Captain Council and accepted His Son Armando, becoming the best version of herself. How to further develop their relationship, it will be possible to see in the continuation of the franchise.
