#viggo mortensen putting out his cig like That Literally rewired my whole brain
To prepare for his role, Viggo Mortensen traveled alone to Moscow, St.Petersburg and the Ural Mountain region of Siberia, where he spent five days driving around without a translator. He read books on the gangs of the Vory v Zakone, Russian prison culture and the importance of prison tattoos as criminal résumés, and perfected his character’s Siberian accent and learned lines in Russian, Ukrainian and English.
