“The stunts wanted to be spectacular. There was a form of a relentlessness to the character that we each picked up on. He simply by no means appears to present in. I actually wished the stunts, proper from the start of designing them, to have a actuality to them.
“You possibly can type of get away with doing something proper now with the know-how that we’ve got, so it is about nearly limiting what the character can do. And you then’ve received this man [referring to Taylor-Johnson].
