Actor Charlie Hunnam says he spent 14 hours a day, for 27 days, on a cross-trainer while filming his new movie 'Pacific Rim'.
The 33-year-old actor, who plays pilot Raleigh Becket in Guillermo del Toro's sci-fi blockbuster, had to muster all his strength while on set as some scenes required him to use the exercise machine for hours at a time, reported Contactmusic.
"There are a bunch of sequences where I pilot the giant robots. They created what was essentially a cross-trainer for us to operate them," Hunnam said.
"It's hard enough to do that for 30 minutes at a time, but I did it 14 hours a day, for 27 days, wearing a 30 pound suit. There were moments I thought I wouldn't get through it but it was worth it in the end," he added.
Hunnam is set to join del Toro in another film, 'Crimson Peak', after the pair decided they made a great team and enjoyed working together.
