Angelina Jolie has revealed that she once feared that the film 'Unbroken' was going to be one of the great disasters of filmmaking history.

The 39-year-old actress added that the first days of filming in the middle of the ocean off the coast of Australia and her reaction to it made her think so, E! Online reported.

The 'Maleficent' star added that the only thing one could do was laugh at how insane this was all going to be and then had to take a deep breath and figure out what to do next.

Jolie, who had never done anything like it and was up for the challenge, continued that she had so much to learn and didn't know what she was up against when she was first getting into it.

The movie is based on a real-life hero Louis Zamperini, an American World War II soldier who spent 47 days drifting on a raft in the ocean before being captured as a POW by Japanese forces.
