A major reason Bill Skarsgård took on his first big action movie is because he loves MMA and UFC, says Boy Kills World director

Boy Kills World.

While he may have played the Marquis in John Wick 4, Bill Skarsgård didn’t get to partake in much action in that hit franchise. In fact, the actor is probably better known for his horror performances, thanks to his terrifying portrayal of Pennywise in It, as well as roles in Barbarian and Hemlock Grove.

This all means that when it came to casting his action thriller Boy Kills World, director Moritz Mohr tells GamesRadar+ and the Inside Total Film podcast that Skarsgård wasn’t his first thought.
