- How are you?

- I'm Sam Hueghan.

- And I'm Eiza Gonzalez,

and we are going to play Portrait Mode

- We are, I believe, ten minutes we have

to draw each other.

Meanwhile we will be answering questions.

- And we are going to try to not suck at this,

so here we go!

(upbeat music)

- I have to say, by the way, I am at a total disadvantage,

Eiza is extremely talented, so I'm going to give her

a head start (Eiza laughs) so off you go Eiza.

- I'm gonna start first, yes,

okay here we go (Eiza laughs). - Okayy, here we go.

And what am I supposed to do, look at her,

I mean she's (Eiza laughs)

so ugly - I hope you just at least

can not do a stick figure in there.

- Yeah, no peaking - Okay.

Here we go. - Here we go

Oh god, Bloodshot, the movie for me,

it really appealed because, obviously, a great cast,

Vin Diesel has created many action franchises,

one of the most iconic action heroes.

The characters are really awesome.

They're multifaceted, they're human,

- Keep drawing me.

- Oh god, Yeah (Eiza laughs)

and honestly, what a cast,

they're a great ensemble, apart from... (Sam clears throat)

- Wow! Shots fired!

Just because I'm better at drawing, you don't have to take

it personal. - Well we'll see who's better.

- I don't think I'm great, I'll just go ahead and say

I'm slightly better than you.

For me my favorite part of my role was that

it felt different to anything I had seen

for female characters in action films

I felt like it felt very well rounded.

It wasn't just necessarily this badass type of character,

she was also smart and emotional and had a depth to her,

and she didn't shy away from being emotional

which is something that I feel like

it's always kind of mutually exclusive

in these roles for females.

This is tricky to speak and

actually do this - It's really hard

to multitask. - It's really hard.

I'm just discovering that I'm not good at it.

I always thought I was. Which I'm not

- Aren't women better multitaskers?

- Yeah, and clearly I'm not one of them.

- [Interviewer] What about you, Sam?

What about your favorite?

- Dalton really is, he's an amazing character

and very different to roles I've played before.

I wouldn't say he's a bad guy,

I think he's just very angry,

- I'm just looking at your face. (Eiza laughs)

It's a really hard face to draw.

- He's ex-Navy Seal. Very, very good at what he does.

But he's had this terrible trauma he's suffered,

and I think he's angry. He's angry at the world

for having lost his light.

I think he's angry at the military,

and angry for being passed over.

He wants this technology.

He thinks he's better than Ray Garrison, and (both laugh)

and he's certainly not - He's suffering.

- Good at drawing. (Eiza laughs)

Did you read the comic prior to that?

- Prior to landing the role? No.

I actually started reading it when I got the movie

and I was lucky enough to not be part of the comic books,

my character is kind of created off the film,

and so I feel like I've been on the other side of the coin

where you have to audition for a role

that already exists, and the character already exists.

There's a lot of pressure in that

and you want to do the character justice

and the fans, so it allowed me to be creative and really

make my own version of what I thought KT could be.

- Good answer.

- Thanks babe.

- Thanks for talking for a while, it gives me time to draw.

- Yeah I really get better at your job.

right here, here we go.

- I didn't know the series, but as soon as I

heard more about it, I got several of the comics

and then it was really interesting

to get a sense of this world, where the Bloodshots in,

and it's amazing actually, this movie really is

pretty accurate, on march, to those comics.

- I'm doing such a bad job. (Eiza laughs)

It's just I don't have...

I usually do pastels so I can do depth and...

- I have a lot of depth. (Eiza laughs)

- [Interviewer] We are at five minutes so...

- It's just not very - No!

Are we really?

- [Sam] I'm going on.

- [Eiza] God. This is kind of...

(markers scribbling)

This is just because my (Eiza laughs)

because my

thing is black,

it just makes you look like a Mexican man.

(Eiza laughs)

So like if I do your beard, you're just going to look

fully like my dad.

- You're supposed to draw me, not your dad, you know that?

Did I feel any pressure playing this role?

Obviously this is a fan favorite,

but I think actually these characters weren't in the comics,

or our characters weren't, so it was really fun

to actually create these new characters

or try and, believe it or not who are going to be in

(Sam laughs)

gonnna be in the Valiant series.

But there was definitely pressure with

obviously Bloodshot is a fan favorite so,

we had to get it right but I think

with Dave Wilson at the helm, we are so lucky

he had such a strong vision of what he wanted to do.

Fortunately he didn't ask us to do any painting or drawing.

(Eida laughs loudly)

- Thank god that was not part of our

job because - I would not

- We would have not nailed this.

- I would not have got the job.

- Working with Vin Diesel was incredible.

I mean he was always just up for a new challenge,

and that's what I thought was really incredible about Vin is

when he started in the industry,

there wasn't a lot of opportunities for diverse actors

and I feel like he always fell in that category

and he kind of created his own opportunities.

The fact that he took a new dive into this film

is something that we were all grateful

and he had that attitude coming into the job

and so we had a lot of fun,

we enjoyed being around each other,

we were all stuck in kind of this place in Cape Town

and we all only had each other.

I have a very cute story. I had an accident

while I was in the movie and I was in the hospital

and he came and brought me... I remember coming out of...

the drugs and I was on the bed,

and he brought all this sushi,

and I looked at the door and every nurse,

every person in the hospital was there,

and I realized that Vin was in my room,

and had brought all this sushi from this sushi place

and put it on my bed and we sat down there

and I was, Dave always makes fun of me

because I was eating soup, and he says that that's his

fond memory of me, I'm like...

(Sam laughs)

he's like what? And it would like drip out my mouth,

and they're like are you okay, and I'm like yeah.

- [Interviewer] One minute left.

- No!

- Thank god, I can't take this anymore.

I don't know how to fix this.

- This makes no sense.

- If we could have one superpower, what would it be?

I think mine would be to be a better artist.

My mom is actually an artist so if she sees this

she's gonna disown me.

- I feel like mine will too.

- But I'm hoping that my skills don't lie here,
