Michael Fassbender has had some pretty heavy roles over the years, including Shame and Hunger, to name just a couple.
Things haven’t been much lighter for him in his latest flick Alien: Covenant, in which he plays two androids called David and Walter.
Fassbender talked to the Irish Sun about trying to bring some humour into these roles: "I try and sort of bring it in wherever I can. Like David as well, there are some fun moments there. It's something that I have to do more of."
The actor spoke about teaming up with Seth Rogen in his attempts to break into comedy. The two previously worked together on Steve Jobs when Fassbender took on the titular role in an Oscar nominated performance while Rogen played Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.
"We'd met before, I was a fan of his work. I think I threw a blueberry at him actually, it was at one of these dinners and he was at the table across the way and so that was our introduction," Fassbender recalled.
"So, when we were on Steve Jobs, he said, 'I thought we'd work together at some point but I thought it would be in one of my movies'. So yeah, maybe at some point."
We’d love for it to end up looking something like this, but only time will tell.
