Interview with Luis Arieta(Weaver, previously known as Teto)

Joker, was able to talk with the actor Luis Arrieta, who plays Weaver in the movie Dragonball, could not talk much about his character, because his contract prevents it, but I think this interview helps put things in place. Weaver is not as important as we thought he would be or made us believe and I think this is weighing less for many fans of the saga.

How were you able to enter the production of Dragonball?

Well, like any other casting, I went to the audition and spent several weeks until I knew that I had been casted. I do not know how difficult it was for the director and production chosen and then as an actor you never fully know, which is that if it were so many actors to casting.

Are you a fan of Dragon Ball?

The truth is that I was not a fan, although I knew about the series, so obviously when I learned that I had been casted, I began to investigate anything that could be Dragon Ball.

How many days did you participate in the film?

I filmed only in Mexico City I had several days of design and image apparel. All of my scenes were filmed in one day.

How was the production of Dragonball?

The truth is that it was unbelievable. Both production as the Mexican American I was treated very well. It was also very gratifying to work with the actors and the crew.

How was it filming a big budget movie?

Well obviously it is impressive to see the number of people and equipment there. In truth I felt very fortunate to be able to be in something that big and important.

What we can say about your character?

My character is called Weaver. And well though I go out very little in the film and see what they contributed to history.

Initially there was a misunderstanding with the name of your character, stating that it was Teto, but after it was learned that it was Weaver?
If I knew once I met a IMDB and saw the credit. The good news is that they changed it.

Do you think the movie is a good adaptaion?

In fact the script is well written and very entertaining. I suppose that if things were adapted to make a film stronger because it is impossible to put in two hours of film to all the characters in the series and all the stories.

Did you see Goku fight in live action?

Actually I did not see any fight scenes.

Do you think the main actors Justin Chatwin, Chow Yun Fat, were good choices?

I believe it is. All besides being good actors, is put very well in their characters.

What are the chances of participation in the aftermath of Dragonball, as it says it will be a trilogy?

I do not know if there will trilogy.

Have you had contact with the production after the shooting, have you seen scenes from the movie?

No, but I'm eager to see how it is coming along.

There are many fans who will have much fear of this adaptation, think that is not true to the spirit of Dragonball ... to be a sort of Smallville ... what can you say to these fans?

The only thing I can say to fans is that they are open to seeing a new proposal for Dragon Ball. I was always such a fan of Batman and was very scared when they would leave the new version of Christopher Nolan and the truth is that they became equal to or better than the first Batman.

Do you have a story of the filming that you can share?

Well, as you've seen the photos that were slipped to the Internet and hair discoloration that I dyed yellow. It was good for a while but then I gave punishment take to the streets, it was transforming into an orange color.

What other projects have in cinema? I learned that you have founded a film production company with other actors?

Now I'm filming the new film by Gustavo Loza. For now called to continue although a tentative name. Because if I have a producer with Luis Ernesto Franco and Ana Serradilla. We now have three indents we're trying to lift. One of them would be a co-production with the United States is about to consolidate.

Is there a chance that your film projects in Durango?

One of the film is about family and inter alia with the facilities that this giving in Durango is now quite possible that if we could go there.

The only thing I can say to fans is that they are open to seeing a new proposal for Dragon Ball. I was always such a fan of Batman and was very scared when they would leave the new version of Christopher Nolan and the truth is that they became equal to or better than the first Batman.

I think that we reached a point where its not even worth commenting.
