Richard Armitage Megapost!: The Sequel


Tuesday, 12 March 2013
Peter Jackson 'pushes cast hard'
Richard Armitage says Peter Jackson is always pushing The Hobbit cast.
Richard Armitage has joked Peter Jackson pushes his cast to keep going, even if they're "on their knees vomiting into a bucket".
The British actor stars in the final two installments of the director's adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, playing Thorin Oakenshield.
Richard quipped the movie mogul knows how to get the most out of the stars and would push them to the limit during filming.
"The thing about Peter Jackson is that he just doesn't understand the word 'no'," Richard laughed to Total Film.
"Even when you're on your knees vomiting into a bucket about to pass out, he'll be like, 'Do you have another take in you?' And it's not in an egotistical or demanding way, it's just he throws down the gauntlet and people pick it up."

In the past, Richard has starred mainly in television and also took on a part in Captain America: The First Avenger.
The 41-year-old knew The Hobbit franchise would be his big break and is very grateful for the opportunity.
"I knew before I started there would never be another film like this for me," he admitted.
"Not just the experience of making the film but the incredible complexity of the character, the transformation of my physicality... It ticks every box I could ever want as an actor. And then working with Peter Jackson, who takes you to a new place in terms of work. It's probably the most important piece of work I'll ever do."














omg he has walking pictures now









With Nathan Kress, who plays his son

But I'm here.

pink_lynz 13th-Mar-2013 01:31 am (UTC)
Thanks bb. Looking at all these pictures of Richard lately is fitspiration for me because I need to get some action and am convinced working on my fitness is the only logical thing to do [/woman logic fail]
psubookworm27 13th-Mar-2013 01:30 am (UTC)
whereas I'm going to hang out here instead of jogging.
negi_ramen 13th-Mar-2013 01:39 am (UTC)
9.3 miles?! jesus. do you also run in marathons or try out for the olympics, cuz damn. I pass out after jogging half a mile (maybe even less than that), that's how out-of-shape I am rn
etoile_du_soir 13th-Mar-2013 02:19 am (UTC)
Congrats on the distance! I actually love going for a good run and then eating a nice dinner since I won't feel guilty about it!!
lilyoda 13th-Mar-2013 02:25 am (UTC)
whoo go you! I just came back from one too (though definitely not 9.3 miles)
railway 13th-Mar-2013 06:43 am (UTC)
I'm going for a jog later, but there is no way in hell I can do 9.3 miles! (Well, I could if I walked it...)

And I am incredibly jealous of your dinner. I FUCKING LOVE INDIAN FOOD.
smittenlilly 13th-Mar-2013 02:14 pm (UTC)
Wow, well done you!
How long does it take you for this distance?
