Next Friday, August 25, Mario Casas will premiere what is his first film as a director: My Solitude Has Wings. The actor's first feature hits theaters and is already in full promotion of it, including the sets of various television programs, which he will visit throughout this week.
This Monday, Casas has gone to Así es la vida, the space that Sandra Barneda presents in the afternoons of Telecinco during the summer. There, the interpreter has had the opportunity to talk about the film with the communicator, and has opened up to the viewers by relating the theme of the production to his most personal sphere.
"I live in the countryside, I go down to Madrid very little and when I'm with people it's now that I'm with promotions and others, but if I'm not with my dog in the countryside, I'm happy, and with my loneliness," he confessed. The actor assures that it was "an almost panic attack" for him to see the result of two months of work on the film and he has thanked the work of his editing team.
Mario Casas has also told how the entire process of preparing the story that now sees the light has been. "I started in the pandemic three and a half years ago, word for word, and you want there not to be something of my essence; I traveled to Madrid at the age of 18 or 19 to find a life and it is a bit of the trip they also make in the film ", he assured.
That is the case of the character played by the director's own brother, Óscar Casas. "What a heavy: you put yourself as a challenge to be a director and direct a brother, and you have given him a tremendous cane", Barneda added, to which Mario has responded emphatically: "I have screwed it up a bit; there are things that cannot be count," he said between laughs.
"He is an incredible actor, I admire him and I am very proud of the work he does and has done, but I wanted to push him to the limit," he continues explaining about Óscar. "That sequence is an anxiety attack, it is a single take and when they cut the team he leaves and leaves me with him. I have pushed him to try to be the character, to really be him and do his best," he concluded.
