In an interview with Interia, which took place on the occasion of the Mastercard OFF Camera Film Festival in Krakow, the actor revealed this He was not immediately cast in the film.

“It was one of the biggest shows I've ever been in and I remember that At first it was not decided that I would play Count Chiensky. […] At the final stage, after a month or two, I discovered that unfortunately no, but then, when I buried that thought, even though I was very happy and felt that it might be good for me to play counting, I got a call from my agent, who… He told me that the casting director said they wanted to give me another chance, but Ignasi would come dressed as the Count.

“I tried not to look at the character from the previous adaptation. I think she is fascinating and worthy of attention and you can also look at the count in that way. However, it seemed to me that, and Michel also pushed us to do it so, our characters and Marisia's characters were contemporary, not to try to play the time we live in , but the context, i.e. the outfit, the location or the situation we are in, makes us feel at those times that he was close.”For me, the distinctive features were highlighted a little, that is, he is often thoughtless and intuitive in his statements, which is what actually gave him the character of the person. Light-hearted,” says Ignacy Lees.

In the same interview, he admitted that only after a while he realized that they were facing a kind of legend, respected by millions of Polish viewers.

“Only after the film did I start to feel the importance of us dealing with a legend, but on set I didn't feel it at all, because the director and the producer themselves, they all kept saying: We're making a new adaptation, this is our story.

The actor added that after the premiere of the new film “Quack Man”, he had no doubt that it was a beautiful story, and one of its important aspects was the touching music of Paweł Lucewicz. Lees had little doubts about whether it “didn't stand out” from the rest of the film's polished elements. “I had a feeling that maybe I hadn't fallen out of favor, because I think this movie is really great,” he summed up.
