Rebel Moon: Staz Nair Delves Into Why He Loves Tarak

Staz Nair, who plays the beastmaster Tarak in Rebel Moon, has explained what it is about his character that he loves.

In an interview with ComingSoon, Nair was asked about what aspects of Tarak and the character’s introduction were most appealing to him. The actor spoke about Tarak’s intuitive and insular nature, as well as his sensitivity.

“What did I like the most about him? I think his sensitivity,” Nair described. “I think it would’ve been easy for Zack to have imagined him and myself to have performed him in such a way where he was a bit more brash, a bit more boisterous, a bit more externally masculine, for lack of a better term.

“But what I loved about him and this relationship with the bird instantly gave me this room to create a far more calm, intuitive, kind of introspective and insular character, which goes against his physicality, you know? It also gives him a nice place to rise when you see him in battle because he’s fierce and very visceral, and it’s a wonderful journey for the spectators to see that this quiet man has a lot burning on the inside.”
