‘The Call of the Wild’ cast on the movie magic behind a computer-generated dog
Harrison Ford’s new movie “The Call of the Wild” is built around a computer-generated dog named Buck, with Ford as the main man in his life. The actor tells Yahoo Entertainment it was a “challenge” but he worked with motion capture actor Terry Notary to bring Buck to life. “It was very helpful for me to have Terry, who’s a terrific actor, there as a presence,” he says. Ford goes on to say the process of a man playing a dog came pretty naturally. “That’s my job, to pretend things and there’s not much difference.” “The Call of the Wild” premieres Feb. 21 in the U.S.
