Behind the scenes[]
- Jeff Goldblum did not use full face makeup when playing the Grandmaster, meaning that this version lacks the blue skin of his original counterpart. Director Taika Waititi said that this happened 'because [Goldblum] did another movie where he was blue', refering to the cult classic Earth Girls Are Easy. Others said that the makeup would detract from Goldblum's personality by concealing his appearance.[1]
Trivia[]
- In the Planet Hulk Storyline, the Sakaaran Imperial known as the Red King is the ruler of Sakaar and the organizer of the gladiator battles.
- This isn't the first incarnation of the Grandmaster being the brother of the Collector. This element was carried over from their characterizations in the Marvel cartoons produced by Man of Action. In the comics, the two are not brothers, and are simply members of the same species.
