The F9 actor admitted to feeling a certain amount of pressure to play Bloodshot for the first time, according to an entertainment portal. The actor mentioned that he felt this pressure not because he is a superhero but due to the fact that real-life soldiers have a liking towards this character.

Bloodshot as a character was killed and later reborn through science and enhanced nanotechnology which turned him into a superhuman. This super soldier trains with fellow army men and struggles to regain memories from his past life. However, in the due course of time, he recollects everything and sets out to kill the man who had murdered him and his wife.
