Filming Legacy was a challenge: Jeff Bridges

 Filming Legacy was a challenge: Jeff Bridges

Highlights

  • Oscar-winning actor Jeff Bridges says shooting Tron: Legacy was physically daunting as the sets were fully computer generated with no one around to interact with.

  • The Crazy Heart star, who reprised the role of Kevin Flynn in the sequel to the 1982 movie found the film to be a "very different way of working" as he had little around to engage with, Daily Telegraph reported.

  • "It's bizarre, a very different way of working, and a challenge, because one of the things I enjoy as an actor is getting the costume or the scene, the place that tells you where you are. So, not having that, you have to pretend. If you were an Indian you had to use a coathanger for your bow," said the 61-year-old actor.
London: Oscar-winning actor Jeff Bridges says shooting Tron: Legacy was physically daunting as the sets were fully computer generated with no one around to interact with.

The Crazy Heart star, who reprised the role of Kevin Flynn in the sequel to the 1982 movie found the film to be a "very different way of working" as he had little around to engage with, Daily Telegraph reported.

"It's bizarre, a very different way of working, and a challenge, because one of the things I enjoy as an actor is getting the costume or the scene, the place that tells you where you are. So, not having that, you have to pretend. If you were an Indian you had to use a coathanger for your bow," said the 61-year-old actor.

Discussing his film career Bridges claimed that he is "jazzed" as many of the projects in which he has featured would be the ones he would want to see at the cinema.

"Every once in a while one will come along that transcends all of your expectations. So many things have to fall in place to make that happen, but when it does. Crazy Heart was certainly a movie like that. 'The Big Lebowski'.

The Fabulous Baker Boys. The Last Picture Show. There's a bunch of them. I look back at my filmography and I'm pretty jazzed with the stuff I've been part of. They're all movies I'd like to see," he added.
