CONSTANTINE Actor Michael Shaw Plays Corvus Glaive in AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR
A lot of fans thought Peter Dinklage was the actor providing the voice of the villain Corvus Glaive in Avengers: Infinity War, but that's not the case. Dinklage is playing a completely different character because the directors confirmed over the weekend that the member of Thanos' Black Order was played by Constantine actor Michael Shaw.
While talking with CinemaBlend, Joe Russo revealed:
"It's a gentleman named Michael Shaw... He's an actor, and we cast a wide net for these characters."
Anthony Russo added:
"In the same way we were approaching Thanos with Josh Brolin to bring sort of a very grounded, realistic performance, we wanted to do that with everyone in the Black Order. So we cast very, very good actors for those."
He went on to talk about the work that went into bringing these character to life fpr the film saying:
"We had Terry Notary, so Terry worked very closely with every one of them to help them understand, including Josh, to help them understand movement, what the relationship between their body and their characters' bodies are, almost like a puppeteer."
If you are not familiar with Corvus Glaive, the character made his debut in Jonathan Hickman’s “Infinity” as part of the Black Order. As a soldier to Thanos, Corvus works for the Mad Titan alongside his wife Proxima Midnight. So far, footage for Avengers: Infinity War has confirmed the two Black Order loyalists will appear in the film. So, fans will get to see how Corvus’ appearance in the film stacks up to his comic debut.
Now, we still have to figure out who Peter Dinklage is playing! We've only got four more days to go!
