Jamie Bell's Daniel help
Wednesday, 31 December 2008
Jamie Bell says Daniel Craig helped him master his action scenes in new movie 'Defiance'.
The 22-year-old actor - who appears in the World War II film alongside Daniel and Liev Schreiber - asked James Bond star Daniel for help when it came to shooting his physically intense scenes.
He said: "The only thing I actually did question Daniel on was action sequences, because I don't really know how to do it. So, just seeing the way Daniel does it, because obviously he's had to learn it, and it really becomes more like a dance rather than anything else.
"It's a number of choreographed movements that are sharp and effective and you want to make it look good for the camera. So, in that regard it was just more of a technique, learning that technique from him."
Jamie - who shot to fame playing ballet dancer Billy Elliot in the 2000 film of the same name - also joked he wanted director Ed Zwick to include a scene that would allow him to show off his dance moves again.
He added to MoviesOnline: "I was trying to convince Ed to try and slip in a dance sequence somewhere, but it just really didn't work out!"
