Carl Weathers, the former NFL star who played Apollo Creed in the "Rocky" movies and also had roles in "Predator,"‘ "Happy Gilmore" and "The Mandalorian," has died at 76. Here's the Hollywood Reporter's tribute to the actor who was enjoying a career resurgence and was just starting to work as a director.
Pablo Schreiber (who plays Master Chief in the #Halo show), explained why Master Chief doesn’t wear his helmet:
“You're not going to be able to bring an audience along in a long-form story without having access to a character's face, which tells you what they're feeling. That access to a character's emotional life, over the course of time, is what makes you empathize and connect with a character.”
I'm sorry, but no. #TheMandalorian proved that wrong. You just need better writing. 🙄
