We spent an awful long time rehearsing them and preparing them and because they were single takes -- that one you particularly talk about, it was a half day reset because we were blowing out walls and tanks and exploding things. It's very specific what we were doing - it's was like a very specific dance or choreography. I think Alfonso Cuaron is one of the most special directors out there.

If only I knew which elevator.

Sure. You can buy me more than one.

Yes, I am a lucky man. It was great fun to do and what I love about that film is how funny it was. I always say it as an out and out comedy and I think Michael Davis did a great job on it -- it is crazy and silly, but it was great fun.

Big memory was the amount of horse riding we had to do and one the first day, I think every actor rode a horse longer than they ever had in their lives before.

I had a great time on Sin City. Robert Rodriguez is a genius. When we shot that movie, it was all green screen with no set - and when I saw it, I couldn't believe what he had achieved.

The Last Knights is with Morgan Freeman. It originally was a kind of samurai tale that we created our own world around. it's about a bunch of knights avenging the death of their master. it has lots of great swordplay.

it's the best football we've played in years. it's very exciting for liverpool this year and the thing is even when we lose, we're still playing great football. we have to be in the shot of winning the title.

Probably the traveling, especially if you've got a family.

Yes, of course. I think Robert Rodriguez did an amazing job on the first one and I can't wait to see this one.
