I thought of Tom Cruise while doing action scenes: Chastain
Press Trust of India London 'Zero Dark Thirty' star Jessica Chastain has revealed she thought of superstar Tom Cruise while preparing herself for action film.
The actress said her 'The Debt' co-star Sam Worthington gave her some pointers about how to run in an action movie, reported Contactmusic.
"Sam Worthington, who I acted with in 'The Debt', had to teach me (how to run), because I used to look like such a wimp when I tried. He told me to think of Tom Cruise when he runs in movies - that's what I was aiming for," she said.
Chastain, 36, also praised another co-star, Brad Pitt, with whom she starred in 'The Tree of Life', for being an inspiration to her career.
"Working with Brad Pitt (was a turning point). He's too humble to make it obvious that he's giving you advice but I would watch him on the set and follow his example.
