The week of guests at El Hormiguero continued after the visit of Kabir Bedi on Monday, the mythical Sandokán, with an interview with Maribel Verdú. The actress approached the set of Pablo Motos to talk about her role in The Flash, the film in which she debuts in Hollywood as the mother of the superhero.
On June 16, this blockbuster will hit theaters, which represents a very important change in his career, since he always rejected roles in the United States, but thanks to the fact that the director of this film is Argentine, it was launched. The problem is that “I didn’t know who he was, I preferred Superman or Batman.”
Since she didn’t know this character, her friend Carmen Ruiz had to help her understand her story. “She gave me a doll of The Flash that was with me throughout the filming.” She attended the program with that amulet and was present at the table throughout the night to give her luck.
Really, Maribel had the great dream of flying: “When I was little I wanted to be Superman, I wanted to fly. I managed to throw myself from a chair and I hit my head open. I still have the gap.”
“By making this character I have realized that I have great power, that I can give birth to superheroes. It is that The Flash wants to go back in time to prevent the death of his mother, which is me in the movie,” he explained. thus his role in this film to the viewers.
Because the plot of the film is that the superhero travels to the past to prevent his mother, with whom he had a great bond, from being killed, Motos wanted to ask his guest what she would like to do if she could do it. But the actress returned the question to gain time.
The presenter made it clear that he would love to “go back to the beginning of when I fell in love with my wife”, whom he met when they worked together on a radio program in Valencia. As he has recounted several times, it took a long time for her to decide to listen to him.
Maribel, for her part, completely opened up to the viewers, confessing that “I would like to get my twin sister back.” As she explained, the pregnancy did not come to fruition and only she could do it, while her sister died before she could be born, a little thorn that has always remained.
