Sam L. Jackson Says Tarantino Shot Film on a Refrigerated Set
In Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight, Samuel L. Jackson plays Major Marquis Warren, a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter. She asked about what it was like shooting Hateful Eight, and Jackson explained that this is really an ensemble piece as opposed to Tarantino’s previous movies. He also said the cast really bonded over the course of filming, and they’re still texting and referring to themselves as “The Haters.” And when you hear what filming was like on set, it makes sense why they would form such a close bond:
"All of us are so anxious to see this movie because, every day, the work was incredible. It was taxing, in a very interesting way, because we were in the snow, at first, and then we get inside this room. Quentin shot on a refrigerated set, and it was 30 degrees, every day, in there. We were miserable in the environment. You could see our breath, but the stuff that we were doing was amazing. We would finish doing a scene and look at each other and just grin like, 'This is incredible.' And we may be blowing smoke up our own asses, but I hope it’s as good as we felt like it was when we were doing it."
