Army of the Dead Spoilers: Ana de la Reguera Details Filming THAT Brutal Scene
61[Editor's note: The following contains spoilers for Army of the Dead.]
Many key characters meet an especially brutal demise in Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead. But personally? The one I can’t get out of my head is the fate Maria Cruz played by Ana de la Reguera suffers. The connection between Reguera and Dave Bautista as Scott Ward is one of the strongest elements of the film, with the pair sharing an infectious chemistry I couldn’t get enough of. Between that and the fact that they are the first two members to join the heist crew, I had made up in my mind that, at the very least, they were going to be some of the last characters standing - until they weren’t.
It comes as a huge surprise when Cruz is the very first character targeted by Zeus (Richard Cetrone) and the Alphas when they make their way down to the vault. Upping the shock value of that moment even more is how quickly it happens and how graphic the scene is. Mere seconds after having a heart to heart with Ward, Zeus appears and doesn’t just snap Cruz’s next, but rather, does a 180 with it.
With Army of the Dead now available to stream on Netflix, I got the chance to chat with Reguera about her experience working on the film and absolutely had to ask about what it took to make that stunt happen. Check out what she said in this clip!
