‘Internet as Powerful as Nuclear Bomb’ Says John C. Reilly

Actor John C. Reilly feels Internet is the central issue of our time, and says it was exciting to address several concerns around it through a “fun and entertaining” story with Ralph Breaks the Internet. Ralph Breaks the Internet, a sequel to Wreck-It Ralph, shows the way the Internet affects everyone’s life, and puts a spotlight on online bullying and trolling.

“I remember this one really moving conversation I had with them (the makers of the film) where I realised the Internet is like the central issue of our time,” Reilly said while explaining his process of getting into the character.

“Our relationship to this technology, its power, and its effect on us, we don’t even quite understand yet. It’s as powerful as like a nuclear bomb. But it uses other means,” he added. (IANS)
