MTV News sat down with Bill Nighy to talk about Johnny Depp's CG animated "Rango" film, which according to the actor is now being called "Cheap as Dirt."
While very little is known about the movie, Nighy revealed that he will be playing the villain, who does battle with Rango (Depp), an animated lizard. "I play the bad guy," he said. "I play a very, very bad guy. I'm a rattlesnake and I am a gun-slinging assassin. I literally have a Gatling gun — I have a machine gun in my tail — so I can just spray the whole town. I can kill everybody whenever I wish. I'm brought in by the corrupt sheriff to sort things out."
It has been said that director Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean) will be using motion-capture technology, Nighy revealed that the actors didn't have to participate in that process. "We didn't have to wear anything," Nighy said. "It's somewhere between [animation and motion-capture]."
