Caleb Landry Jones Says Celebrities Taste Like Seitan In “Antiviral”
Written by Vegetarian Star on April 11th, 2013 in Actors, Film & TV, Food & Drink.
Caleb Landry Jones stars as a representative for a firm that sells celebrity diseases in the Toronto International Film Festival flick Antiviral.
The company extracts viruses from celebrities and sells them to fans wishing to be part of the experience.
Personally, we’d rather just have an autograph.
In addition to patented sickness, the film gets weirder as it has characters eating food made from celebrity DNA.
But you bet your broccoli it’s vegan.
Jones said of the “steak” he ate on the set:
“What it’s made out of is called seitan. It was terrible. In fact, in the scene where I take the bite, you can’t see but I walk out of frame for a specific second and I spit it out directly in front of me on the wall, then walk back into the scene. You can’t notice it. Old-fashioned filmmaking. And then I had it, Brandon took me to this Vegan place and said, “This is what it’s supposed to taste like.” It was delicious! It’s his favorite kind, he said, so it was good. I could understand you could be a Vegan. If you could eat these things, I could understand being Vegan.”
