In real life, Vin Diesel is indeed just as imposing as he looks onscreen, entering the trailer in thick hooded jacket, boots, and his character Kaulder's "modern look" of dark slacks and a dark, form-fitting shirt.ĭiesel was in the midst of enjoying some piping-hot Italian wedding soup (as we all had), and his manner was surprisingly laid back and pensive. We met Vin inside of one of the lone trailers available in the underground mine, complete with luxuries like working lights, heat, and wifi. Vin Diesel's scene was filmed later in the day (around 6pm), when we (and the crew) were thoroughly brittled by the cold. To call it nightmarish would be an understatement - but last we saw, Vin Diesel's Kaulder was rushing off to face the beast, with his sword strapped securely to his back. The work of sculptors / welders Vaughn Washburn and Kyle Fisher, The Sentinel's skeletal parts are real bone, including five arms, twenty-five jaws, twenty hooves, two full cow vertebra, twenty skulls, six hides (two big, four small), wood from local parks all mounted on welded infrastructure. It's name is The Sentinel, a big wood and bone totem monster built with practical materials to make a scorpion-like monstrosity, complete with animal skins and skulls (deer, cow etc.) and pelvic bones halves for eyes. Meanwhile (in a later scene we observed) Vin Diesel's immortal witch hunter, Kaulder, hears the dark prophecy of how to reach the Witch Queen, and sets off to face her but something horrible waits in the darkness barring his path - a monster unlike any we've seen. The scene came late in the film, and involved MILD SPOILER Elijah Wood's young priest adviser, Dolan Thirty-Seven watching as Rose Leslie's 'good witch' character, Chloe, uses her magic abilities to sift through the mind of psychotic wizard Ellic (Joseph Gilgun), looking for clues on how to reach the Witch Queen (Julie Engelbrecht). Cold and darkness and gravelly rock underfoot didn't deter the three actors as they filmed their scene over and over again.
