Emma Stone has confessed that she felt intimidated by Woody Allen while working under his direction on 'Magic in the Moonlight'.
The 25-year-old actress, who stars in the legendary director's latest project where she is appearing opposite Colin Firth, said working under his direction was nerve-racking because the cast were not given time to get comfortable with him, reported Contactmusic.
"It was hugely intimidating. I think after a while you get your sea legs a little bit, but there's no rehearsal process, there's no real getting-to-know Woody at all. You are just terrified. It's all cold," she said.
'The Amazing Spider-Man' actress did not even meet with the director before she was offered the part.
"I didn't physically see him. He didn't pull me into any room and he wasn't there when I read the script. Someone gave me the script. His assistant gave me the script and I read it, gave it back to her and then left.
