The Province:
Actor Michael Shannon seems to be everywhere right now, chasing 1920s bootleggers on TV’s Boardwalk Empire, drawing Oscar buzz for his role in the intimate apocalyptic thriller Take Shelter, and reinventing General Zod for a new generation of Superman fans in the currently filming Man of Steel.
He’s filming that movie in Vancouver with director Zack Snyder. Taking advantage of that proximity, the Whistler Film Festival invited him up for a career tribute Saturday night. Already a past Oscar nominee (supporting actor) for the suburban period drama Revolutionary Road, the forbidding looking but soft-spoken actor is quietly building an impressive body of work.
