This role spans several years. How did you prepare? I tried to lose weight in between the first and second sections of the film. I lost half a stone.
How much is half a stone? I don’t know exactly. I think I could tell you right now. I’ve got scales upstairs.
Is it a lot of weight? It’s a lot for me. Well, what am I in pounds? I am currently 70 pounds.
You’re not 70 pounds. Yeah, I am. I think I am.
No, that would be dangerous. Oh, really? It’s kilograms, then. I’m 70 kilograms. I don’t know what I am in pounds. I don’t understand pounds. I lost, basically, one twentieth of my weight. Which sounds very unimpressive, but it was f–––ing difficult.
How did you lose the weight? I just ran, and ate less. I didn’t starve myself. I didn’t go all Method actor.
Your last three costars were Anne Hathaway, Keira Knightley and Angelina Jolie. Do you only work with hot women? Yeah, I do. No, I don’t. It’s a weird phenomenon that I can’t understand. I’m very lucky.
There were reports that Angelina wanted a steamier love scene with you in “Wanted.” Our characters have a platonic relationship.
Isn’t there a love scene? There is a love scene.
But it’s not steamy? It depends on what floats your boat.
