The 41-year-old actor went all-in—from physical strain to smoking cigars for hours. Talking about the English actor’s full-on method acting, Levy revealed:

I remember he was so committed I mean he was jacked up and he had that disgusting cigar in his mouth for hours, and he was fully in it. I think he might have gotten sick to his stomach.
