A: whats the plot of your new movie?
B: its a story about a policemen who is investigating a series of strange murders. I play the part of the detective. He has to catch the killer4, but theres very little evidence. Its a psychological thriller with some frightening scenes, but I hope audience wont be too scared to go to the movie theatres!
A; did you enjoy making the movie? We heard stories of disagreement with other actors and with the director.
B; I have had disagreement with every director. Ive worked with. Weve always disagreed in a friendly way and we have always resolved our differences. It was the same when I made this movie. I dont know where rumours5 of my disagreement with Rachel Kelly come from. We got on very well and I hope to work with her again. I enjoyed making the movie very much.
A: critics are not very happy with the movies that youve made recently. Does that bother you?
B: not at all. The feedback from audience has been great. I care about what they think more than what the critics think.
A: did you do you own stunts6 in the movie?
B: I wanted to , but my insurance company wouldnt let me. All of my stunts were done by a stuntman7. As you know, I used to do my own stunts, but Ill leave that to the experts in future.
A; thank you very much for doing this interview.
B: my pleasure. Have you seen the movie yet?
A; yes. I have. I liked it very much. Like you, I was very impressed with rachels performance in the movie. Shes going to be a star.
