00:00 You're leaving that jacket, right?

00:02 There's a crocodile poop there!

00:04 [Music]

00:17 Can you guys together, randomly, name all the best elements of Argyle?

00:24 Under 15 seconds.

00:26 If you're ready, from now!

00:29 Oh my god!

00:30 Stylish!

00:31 Subversive!

00:32 Fun!

00:33 Fun! Brilliant!

00:34 Uh, exciting! Innovative!

00:36 Groundbreaking! Kitty cat!

00:38 Cat laugh!

00:39 I didn't have words so I went with the crocodile poop there!

00:43 You just got a little picture of what it's like on set.

00:46 Did you know that your skating scene was mind-blowing?

00:49 You made it seem so seamless.

00:51 You're correct about what you said.

00:53 There's just a ton of action in this movie.

00:56 Yvonne has a history of leaning into groundbreaking action

01:01 and so much of that has to do with his partnership with Brad Allen

01:04 who very tragically passed away shortly before shooting.

01:07 So Brad Allen designed all of the sequences and whatnot.

01:12 Brad comes from Jackie Chan so it's very stylized, comedic violence.

01:17 I did this thing when I got out of quarantine in Australia.

01:21 The first day out of quarantine, by the way.

01:24 I'm surprised they let you in.

01:26 Exactly. I know what you're saying.

01:28 The first day I get out, Brad was in Australia.

01:31 I didn't see him but I saw some of his team.

01:34 And they wanted to assess my abilities.

01:37 And for an hour, straight out of quarantine,

01:40 they had me do everything from warming up to jiu-jitsu

01:44 to all the little things, how to roll.

01:47 And I was shattered afterwards. It was just an hour.

01:50 Just to see what level I would be at.

01:53 Henry, for you, I don't know how many more hearts have been captured.

01:57 If it wasn't in the news, I think it would be like

01:59 Henry Cavill captured even more hearts now from our guy.

02:02 Yeah, truly.

02:04 Holding the camera? That's everything!

02:07 Oh god. But fans are asking what had to be the hardest.

02:10 The insane action sequences or your new hairstyle?

02:14 Ooh, do you say hardest?

02:17 Probably the hairstyle.

02:19 Yeah, that took some getting used to.

02:21 It was months worth of flat-top.

02:24 Because not only do I have to wear it at work,

02:27 but I also have an interesting hairstyle out of work.

02:31 So definitely the hairstyle.

02:33 Seb, we heard you've got grooves.

02:36 You can jazz, you can move.

02:38 Matthew outrightly calls you crazy but in a magical way.

02:41 Crazy in a magical way?

02:43 Yeah, in a magical way.

02:45 Like a goblin or something?

02:47 A leprechaun?

02:49 Kind of like a goblin in a mental hospital.

02:51 A gremlin?

02:53 Yeah, sure. That's kind of me.

02:55 But incorporating dance music and action,

02:57 how do you find a rhythm for it?

02:59 They're very similar actually.

03:01 Stylized violence and dance are very similar.

03:03 Well, choreographing a fight scene

03:07 is not unlike choreographing a dance, you know.

03:11 If it's done right.

03:13 You can make it look dangerous and be safe at the same time.

03:17 Of all the casts, who has the best bloopers?

03:22 3, 2, 1.

03:24 Wow.

03:26 Sam is one of the most present actors I've ever worked with.

03:32 And so it's not just like you're going in,

03:36 you're just doing the lines,

03:38 and it's like this sort of rote thing.

03:40 There are discoveries being made every millisecond.

03:46 And it is thrilling. It is absolutely thrilling.

03:49 Her hyper focus is amazing.

03:52 And his acerbic humor I found very surprising and titillating.

03:58 He would f***ing crack me up out of nowhere.

04:02 Do the roll again? No, don't do the roll.

04:04 Oh, he did. Oh my God.

04:08 Oh my God. Oh my God.

04:10 Oh my God.

04:13 What's the special?

04:15 Baby.

04:22 (audience laughing)
