Jai Courtney On "Terminator: Genisys": "There Was A Lot Of Nude Work"
Jai Courtney is looking good in Interview magazine, where he talks to his Jack Reacher director Christopher McQuarrie about the 327 movies he has coming out.
We'll see the 29-year-old Aussie in Man Down and Suicide Squad, but first its Terminator: Genisys, ramming into theaters on July 1.
"I was first told I was too heavy and had to drop a bunch of weight," he tells McQuarrie. "Which, for someone who likes food and still smokes cigarettes, is going to fucking suck. So I lived on a treadmill for about six weeks. It was parked at the end of my bed, literally."
Funny, ours is too—but it has laundry on it.
"Emilia [Clarke] and I worked most of those days," Courtney added. "That might not sound too extreme—people carry films all the time—but it was a 95-day shoot or something, and we shot six-day weeks the entire run. It was fucking taxing."
"There was a lot of nude work, so the pressure to stay in shape and get rest and do all that stuff mounted."
Sorry, what mounted?
