Diesel recently took to Instagram and posted a video about making the film, explaining about the pressure he faced while filming Bloodshot.
Directed by Dave Wilson, the action movie follows super-soldier Ray, aka the superhero Bloodshot, who is brought back from the dead by a corporation through the use of nanotechnology. “First of all, other than the Groot character… it was the established superhero I have ever played. So, after all, with that comes a certain amount of pressure. The character of Ray Garrison, a personality who has handled post-traumatic stress disorder and actually represents the idea of the forgotten or discarded solider, is tough to essay. So for me it was important to research about the sentiment that existed in a few of our veterans, and Blooodshot specifically has been the military’s favourite superhero,” Diesel said.
