Paul Giamatti is trying to steal Andy Serkis’s thunder

Here’s Paul Giamatti on the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, in which he plays The Rhino. I assume he’s doing some sort of motion capture work here, though he seems a little overdressed for it (MORE SPANDEX ONESIES!). We all know Paul Mr.-Academy-Award-Nominee-for-Cinderella-Man Giamatti is widely regarded as one of the best actors in town, but does he have the thespian chops to compete with Sir Andy Serkis when it comes to wordlessly evoking the inner humanity of a fantastical creature? I guess we’ll see. |TheSuperficial|
