COLLIDER: I have to ask you what it was like yesterday?
And you guys came in and did the Q&A.
I don’t know how much you knew about how well it played were you aware?

But I was like, Oh, they like that part of me!
I can only imagine.
I have to ask you this probably the most important question.

ANTHONY ANDERSON: [Laughs] My money’s on Viola.
MARTIN: The way she preps…
ANDERSON: Yeah.
I mean, when she shoots a gun, I’m with that.

I would not bet against her.
Although Keanu [Reeves] is John Wick.
I mean, he is pretty badass.
MARTIN: I will say, so is Viola!
That would be a great battle to see, though.
Yeah, I will say.
ANDERSON: That would be a good one.
MARTIN: Until the end!
It should be just a film of that just that.
I’m bringing it up to wish it into existence.
Being serious, I love Viola, and her presence on screen.
How is she doing this that I can use for my own acting in the future?
CHRISTOPHER FARRAR: She just brought so much depth to each scene.
Like, she gave me so much to work off of it.
ANDERSON: How can you not work off of what she brings?
ANDERSON: Its just amazing.
MARTIN: No, exactly that.
So it’s more than just the acting part of it.
They actually have to get physically ready for these roles, and it’s not easy.
It’s a lot of recovery.
MARTIN: Yeah, youre talking about physically.
It definitely just takes a lot of work.
ANDERSON: Its not as easy as people would think it would be.
And it’s not just a physical thing, it’s also a nutritional thing.
Our stunt crew did this the way they took care of us prepared meals, and all of that.
It’s so funny because I tried telling people.
I’ve been on sets, and people think it’s this glamorous thing.
In actuality, it’s far from it.
ANDERSON: Oh, definitely.
MARTIN: No, definitely not.
And you sacrifice so much.
We filmed in Cape Town, where we were away from our families.
We were away from our friends, away from our normal daily routines.
And we had to mentally stay in it.
I think that is the wildest part of it all.
The Oscar winner squares off against ‘The Boys’ star Antony Starr in Prime Video’s new thriller.
MARTIN: The helicopter.
Because that was at the very end.
So I woke up every day thinking like, All right, were getting close to that helicopter thing.
ANDERSON: Oh, because you wanted it to be over?
Because I didn’t know what it was going to be like.
Going literally bang for bang, head for head on some things.
FARRAR: For me, it was probably just the rockets scene shooting that was super cool.
ANDERSON: Two for me.
Just to get it started, and to be a part of that.
So, yeah, I was looking for those two days.
