Licorice Pizza - Speculation & General Reactions

I don't see his name listed.

Alethia · October 12, 2020, 04:35:15 PM

His stunt double's name is.

Drill · October 12, 2020, 05:55:43 PM

Ah, got it.

He wouldn't be on set without mask otherwise, glad we have confirmation

I assumed he played the Director role inspired by John Huston but why would the character be racing motorcycles?

Excessive masculinity?

Perhaps he's trying to one-up the arguably most criticized scene in The Master.

My assumption was the character would be frail and in old age much like John Huston, who to my knowledge did not race motorcycle in the 70s. But thanks for eye roll emoji

When I first saw the IMDB link, I assumed a fan just put Penn in based on the photos, but if it's his stunt double, that's pretty inside baseball.

With the possibility that the Collider report back in August was inaccurate always kept in mind, I don't see Penn taking the role 78 y.o. Harrison Ford and 76 y.o. Michael Douglas were considered for, I can't imagine them as directors who in their free time are motorcycle riders living on the edge.

Alethia · October 12, 2020, 11:30:13 PM

You can't imagine Harrison Ford, who crashes planes for pleasure, as an aging, motorcycle riding, edge-living director?

Rick Dalton · October 13, 2020, 12:47:40 AM

Maybe Sean Penn isn't playing the director, maybe he's playing a stuntman

Apparently MGM is up for sale? Wonder how that impacts this now

Wow it's been a bit of a ride for MGM over the last few years. Well hopefully if it does get bought it's by someone committed to theatrical distribution.

Anyone the know the shooting pattern schedule for the film?? I've been wanting to see them shoot but don't live in LA unfortunately. I know they shoot for 2 weeks then a week off but I'd wanna know for sure
