Following his turn as David Frost in Ron Howard’s Oscar-nominated Frost/Nixon, Michael Sheen has picked up a number of other high profile films. Later this year, he’ll be seen in the estrogen magnet ‘Twilight Saga: New Moon’, as the Italian vampire leader Aro. He also lent his voice to the White Rabbit in Tim Burton’s 3D Disney adventure ‘Alice in Wonderland’.

Sheen will also be have a role in another upcoming Disney 3D movie, ‘Tron Legacy’. Despite early speculation that Sheen would be playing yet another villain… which he does do so well, he revealed that he would in fact be playing a nightclub host:

That was amazing, because there’s a lot of green screen in that. But my stuff was mainly in this amazing set that they built because I’m a nightclub host, so they built the nightclub and there were hundreds of extras and it was one of those great scenes where there’s just loads going on.

The character design has probably evolved. And the effects have undoubtedly gotten better over the last couple of years. Not to mention that the test footage wasn’t originally shot for 3-D, like the full feature is. The test footage never ceases to stop me from blinking, so we can only imagine how insane the final product will be.
