Like you're working with great people and you're 89 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 3: just hoping that they're going to do the best. But 90 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 3: it's not always that way. You know. I've done TV series, 91 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 3: I've done films that you know, you really have to 92 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 3: guard your performance carefully. You know, you don't want to 93 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 3: give them too many things that they could use in 94 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: the edit room and make your performance, you know, come 95 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 3: out a completely different way. But having said that, your 96 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 3: job as an actor is just to act, So you know, 97 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 3: if the director wants different takes and different things and 98 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: different perspectives of the character, different aim of it or 99 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 3: different performances. Then you got to give it to them, 100 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: you know, and just hope that they do their best 101 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: with the cut. But yeah, it can be hard to 102 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 3: control those things, you know. So I just got to 103 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 3: do my best and then leave it up to the 104 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 3: universe to decide after that. 105 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 2: Have you ever had. 106 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: A situation about a lot actors who said they've filmed 107 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: something for a while and they show up to the 108 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: premiere and they're not in it or they're totally cut. 109 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 3: Down, then, I mean, I've had that situation on the 110 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 3: highest levels, you know. I mean, like, for instance, when 111 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 3: I was doing morel Kombat. That's a big film for me. 112 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: It was my first like leading role in a big 113 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 3: studio picture. A lot of work, so much stress, not sleeping, 114 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 3: performing all my own fight scenes, you know, and just 115 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 3: like I'm the first person on set, last person to leave. 116 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: I'm getting no sleep at all, and put my heart 117 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 3: and soul into it. And then you know, I watched 118 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 3: the cut of that movie when we were finished. It 119 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: was a rough cut, and it was great.

Then some of those scenes that I loved 122 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 3: got cut in the final film, and man, it is 123 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 3: gut wrenching. I can't explain it to you. It's and 124 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 3: it's not even coming from like an ego perspective. It's 125 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 3: just like, you know, you put so much hard work 126 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 3: into something and then for whatever reason, you know it 127 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 3: could be time, a time constrained thing, and who knows 128 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 3: what the reason is, but they you know, some of 129 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 3: those scenes that you love, then they get cut. It's 130 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 3: like losing your part of your soul.

And so now 174 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 3: it's ten episodes and literally just climbing the ladder bit 175 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 3: by bit by bit and enjoying myself, learning, working with 176 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 3: great talented people that are inspiring me, and slowly, slowly 177 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 3: building to the point where now fifteen years later, I'm 178 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 3: getting close to these bigger films, these bigger pictures. So 179 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 3: when Mortal Komat came around, it was like they sent 180 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: me the script. You know, my agents said, you know, 181 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 3: what do you think about this? And to be honest 182 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: with you, at first, I was I was hesitant to 183 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 3: do it. I actually said no at first because because 184 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 3: that's such a beloved IP. I mean, everyone's that video games. 185 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 3: I was like obsessed with that game when I was 186 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 3: a kid, you know, I mean, I got three younger brothers. 187 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 3: We'd sit there, we'd play for hours. And also it's 188 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 3: like it's martial arts, you know, so you need to 189 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 3: be careful when you take something that's so beloved and 190 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: you commit to being part of that. You want to 191 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 3: make sure that it's in the right hands, that they're 192 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 3: going to do it correctly. They're gonna, you know, they're 193 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 3: going to honor the the game, the choreography is going 194 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 3: to be badass, you know, the directors are going to 195 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 3: be great and all that. 196 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: So, yeah, that's that's a lot of pressure to keep 197 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 2: up in those fans'. 198 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 3: Eyes, right exactly, And it's a lot of Yeah. So 199 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 3: I originally wasn't you know, was hesitant, but after a while, 200 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 3: I you know, they got my friend Joe Taslim, who 201 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 3: was in the Raid. He's an incredible actor. He was 202 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 3: playing sub zero and he's like an Olympic judo guy 203 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 3: and he's also a phenomenal actor. He's also starring in 204 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 3: the show Warrior on HBO Max. But anyway, so like 205 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: when they started to put together that talent, Hiroyuki Sanada, 206 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,719 Speaker 3: one of the greatest Legends of Japan. Incredible actor. It 207 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: was in all these you know, he's I've done eighty 208 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 3: different movies. He's a legend.

He might even get an Emmy. 211 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 3: So they're putting together this type of talent and I 212 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 3: was like, Okay, now I see the vision. I see 213 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 3: where they're going with this. And so yeah, the took 214 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 3: the opportunity and ended up getting the role. So that's 215 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 3: where the work starts. You know, it takes you all 216 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 3: this and now you get this opportunity and now that's 217 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 3: the Now that's the start. It's crazy, but it's interesting. 218 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: That wasn't like you got the part and you're like, 219 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: come in. You're like, I don't know, because you hadn't 220 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: been a leading man at that point. 221 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 3: That takes balls, dude, Yeah, thank you man.

I had a thing when 234 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 2: I was on my journey. 235 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: Again, you have fifteen years where it was like pound 236 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 1: your head, I guess the all right, And I my 237 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: first eleven years, I was making nine four hundred and 238 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: fifty bucks a year living in New York City, like man, 239 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: I know. 240 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 3: Being broken in the apartment. 241 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,599 Speaker 1: I had the refrigerator blocked the bathroom door, so you 242 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: can never go to the bathroom with the door. 243 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: And then I would have my bills turned off. 244 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: The only bill I couldn't get turned off with my phone, Milt, 245 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: because I had to get scoops. 246 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 2: So I would kind of. 247 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: Play bill roulette, like all right, well I'm gonna shot 248 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: off my guest this month, or my electricity this month 249 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: or whatever. It was fucking brutal, but I would also 250 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: play a mind game with myself. 251 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 2: If you will, I. 252 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,839 Speaker 1: Would say you know what. I read something the prayer book. 253 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: I said, appreciate the toil of the climb. So I said, 254 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: I really, really truly convince myself. Man, all this like 255 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: I'm at a press conference or I'm gonna practice, or 256 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: I'm just in the room with these other people. I 257 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: grew up watching on TV the journey itself like this, 258 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: the pot of Gold to the end of the Rainbow. I 259 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: didn't know if I was gonna become Jay Glaizer foxing 260 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: for Sunday. 261 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 2: I didn't know if I was. I knew none of it. 262 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: I just wanted to appreciate every second. And there's work 263 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: fooling yourself for trying to convince yourself into doing that. 264 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: What are some of the things that you kind of 265 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: did to yourself to be able to go on this 266 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: journey and not get down as you're look. 267 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 2: The key to what both you and I do. 268 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: Is being the last motherfucker standing when everybody else is 269 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: quitting because they can't deal with rejection and get turned 270 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: down over and over and over. 271 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: We're standing there with their hands raised. 272 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 3: That's that's crazy, man. I didn't know that. So you 273 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 3: had you were living in a little tetris box Oh my. 274 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 2: God, dude, it is brutal. It was brutal. 275 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 3: That's amazing. You know, Like, look, I know you talked 276 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 3: to a lot of inspirational people, you know a lot 277 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 3: of you know, these guys that are doing great things 278 00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 3: out there in many different worlds, not just sports. You know, 279 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 3: but I think that you can probably agree with me. 280 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: Like the mentality that you just said is the key 281 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 3: that every single person that you talk to that's really 282 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 3: had some sort of success will probably tell you some 283 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 3: a similar story or in a similar way. And it's like, 284 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 3: you know, like Whinston Churchill said, like success is going 285 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 3: from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. That's that's the key. 286 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 3: And the thing is, it's like you can hear that 287 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: quote and you could be like, you know, yeah, like 288 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna write down on the wall, and but you're 289 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 3: a human. You have emotions and feelings. You're for sure 290 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 3: going to feel down. You're for sure going to feel 291 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 3: the loss of enthusiasm. You know when you when you 292 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 3: put your heart and soul into something and you know 293 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 3: it doesn't turn out the way that it's meant to 294 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 3: be or the way that you see it's meant to be. 295 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 3: But that's the key. It's like like what you said, 296 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 3: enjoying that process and putting yourself in the mentality of 297 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 3: this is what's gonna make me great, this this journey. 298 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 3: I wouldn't change a single thing like how I came 299 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 3: up in the in the film industry. I wouldn't change 300 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 3: a single thing as much as it was driven crazy, 301 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 3: as much as I like would lose role after role. 302 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: At the role three months of auditioning, flying here and there, 303 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 3: doing all these meetings, and then boom, I lost the role. 304 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 3: It's like the world crashes down on you. How do 305 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 3: I wake up the next day and just start again, 306 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 3: you know, and and still have that passion. But like 307 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 3: you said, those those are beautiful moments. Those are like 308 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 3: I look back on those now and I'm like, man, 309 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: that was that gave me like this fire inside, Like 310 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 3: that's that That's what helped me get to where I'm 311 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 3: at now. And now it's just like like I was saying, now, 312 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 3: it's just you climb a mountain and then you realize 313 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 3: there's another mountain. You climb that mountain, you realize there's 314 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: another mountain. But it's like enjoy the climb, enjoy the 315 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 3: climb and just look at the view and be like, Wow, 316 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: I'm grateful for this, Like this is incredible. You know 317 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 3: I've I've had times too, man, when I was living 318 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: off a freaking a cup of needles from that, you know, 319 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 3: but like years straight, like I didn't. You know, everything 320 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 3: that I have I earned like bit by bit by bit. 321 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: That to me is is the best. I wouldn't trade 322 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 3: that for anything. That's so valuable, you know what I mean. Yeah, 323 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: that's how I'm saying. 324 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: Also, but for you to get Mortal Combat and things say, 325 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: I'm not sure, and that takes balls, right because it's it's. 326 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 2: We work so hard for that break. That's a different 327 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: level of I would say courage. 328 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think it's also just the feeling. Like 329 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 3: I said, you know, like I know, these things are 330 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 3: not going to be handed to you. Nothing, nothing like 331 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 3: that is given to you on a platter. If you've 332 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 3: worked hard enough and you are meticulous in the way 333 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: that you're designing your life and your mentality, then nothing 334 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 3: can ever mess with that. If I don't get that job, 335 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 3: guess what, I'm still here. I'm still going to be 336 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 3: doing movies, and there'll be another one coming you know 337 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 3: what I mean. So that's the mentality that it happens now, like, 338 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 3: oh my god, there's my chance. I got to you know, 339 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 3: that anxious over anxious kind of you know, needy energy 340 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 3: that doesn't attract the right things. 341 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: You and I met because obviously a love of martial 342 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: arts and you're training with me out Unbreakable. Where has 343 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: what we learn from Marshall Arts and give our listeners 344 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: here just a little background on you in your martial 345 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: arts experience, but where as also you're training in martial. 346 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: Arts helped you in pursuing your dream and acting. 347 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 3: Oh man, it's been invaluable. Yeah, like you know, I mean, 348 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 3: you see, I'm in I'm in Unbreakable. If I'm in 349 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 3: LA I'm there three four days a week at least, 350 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 3: and that's that's a lot considering you know, I have 351 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 3: a lot going on. 352 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: Fucking up all my bags and equipment. 353 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I did. I think I broke I think I 354 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: think one of the first times I ever came, I 355 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 3: broke one of the bags off the wall. I think 356 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: you were there that. 357 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 2: Yeah I was, And I'm like, what the fuck. 358 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 3: Louis, Well now you've got the real story. 359 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you just made us improve the place. Yeah, and 360 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 2: we'll go with that. 361 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 3: But no, it's it's it's been invaluable. And I'm sure 362 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 3: you you know this. It's like in martial arts, you're 363 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 3: forcing yourself to do the hard things, and you're forcing 364 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 3: yourself to be put your putting yourself in situations that 365 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: are not comfortable, and that is the like you're choosing 366 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 3: to do this day after day and and you're you know, 367 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 3: you're suffering injuries and you're getting up again and you're 368 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 3: doing it again. And it's like that's the same mentality 369 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 3: that we're just discussing. It's like nothing is harder than 370 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 3: getting kicked in the face or elbowed in the face. 371 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 3: You know, if I lose, if I lose a role, 372 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 3: I guarantee you getting kicked in the face hurts more 373 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 3: than you know what I mean. So it puts yeah, 374 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 3: it puts you in a different mentality of not just 375 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 3: physical toughness, but mental mental toughness. And I love it 376 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 3: because also as much as it's violent and as much 377 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: as there's a lot of physical exertion and energy going 378 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 3: out to me, it clears my mind. It clears my mind, 379 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: and it makes me feel more peaceful, you know, And 380 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 3: I love that about that. It's like you can handle that, 381 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 3: then you can handle anything. And then obviously it coincides 382 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 3: with my work and what I do, and yeah, I 383 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 3: like to be able to actually do the martial arts 384 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 3: in the films, actually do the fights, and so it's 385 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: that visceral experience that you see on the screen comes 386 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 3: across much greener, you know. 387 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 2: Tell her a listeners, what your background is a martial 388 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 2: arts your dads. 389 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 3: So, my father was a national champion in taekwondo.
