One of the first things that really caught my attention when I made my first visit to Hollywood last year was how many people there are right down by the legendary Hollywood and Highland corner (specifically right in front of the Mann’s Chinese Theater) dressed up as famous movie characters. The new documentary movie “Confessions of a Superhero” looks at the lives of these people.
Most of them came to Hollywood wanting to be actors, and now play these roles on the street corner making money off of tips from tourists who want their pictures taken with them. Slashfilm put up the trailer for it and the reason it caught my attention is that I actually met 2 of the guys. Superman, and The Hulk. Remember when Time magazine did that article on me and some other movie websites? Well, as you can see in the picture below, they hired the Superman guy to come in… and the Hulk guy is the one dressed up as Spider-Man. Let me tell you… these are interesting people… to say the least.
Well anyway, on the photo shoot that day they told me all about this new documentary they were in… and here it is. Check out the Confessions of a Superhero trailer:
