00:00 How are you doing?
00:01 Hello, good. How are you?
00:02 You look so fantastic. How is it being in London, finally showing the world this?
00:06 Finally! Round two.
00:08 How inspiring was this character for you? How did you feel playing her?
00:13 I just loved her, you know, and I got to spend so much time with this character. I got a
00:18 story that is quite unusual and intense to create such a big arc for her, and the discovery
00:24 of her was so much fun for me to dive into. I don't know, everything, like meeting all
00:30 my cast members and working with Zach and being on the most epic films that I've ever
00:36 been on. I mean, everything.
00:38 You didn't do a lot of training when you first started out, kind of action stuff, did you?
00:41 I didn't.
00:42 So how is it now being full in it? You are the action go-to now.
00:46 Oh wow, thanks. No, it's fun. I like doing it. I enjoy doing it. I'm lucky to have had
00:54 a lot of dancing in my background and to have had that training to adapt for stunts now
01:00 that I feel like I'm enjoying doing a lot.
01:03 So can we see you dancing soon?
01:05 Maybe, who knows? We'll see.
01:07 Yes, please. And I read an article about you being the busiest action hero in Hollywood.
01:11 How do you juggle it all? How do you do it?
01:13 I don't know. I just do it. How do you do it? I just do it.
01:18 And I must ask you quickly about the Snyders, the two of them together. How sweet are they,
01:22 by the way?
01:23 They are couple goals.
01:24 I know.
01:25 How do they do it? What was it like working with a couple on set?
01:28 They're great. They're great. They have such a great dynamic. You can tell that they've
01:31 been doing that for a long time together and it's beautiful to see.
01:35 And this is what you dreamed of doing. You live in the dream right now.
01:37 Yes, I am.
01:38 Yeah? Love it.
01:39 Yeah, I'm really grateful.
01:41 And what was the biggest challenge of the whole thing?
01:44 The biggest challenge was... I don't think... I mean, challenges is just learning experiences
01:49 and I think, you know, it was long. It was tiring at times. I mean, it was not all like
01:54 roses we shot, you know, when it was really hot, but it's like all hard work requires
01:59 sometimes, you know, you have ups and downs, but it's going through it and we all live
02:03 such a beautiful experience together that there are no challenges. I think we all just learn.
02:09 Talking of rebels, what's the naughtiest thing you've done?
02:12 The naughtiest? Me? Oh my god. I won't stop talking. I'll have to be here until next week.
