Willem Dafoe Talks 'xXx 2: State Of The Union'

[Thursday, July 1st, 2004]
Willem Dafoe who stars as a four-star general secretary of state in xXx 2: State of the Union talked to SCI FI Wire about his role:

"I'll be doing some action stuff," Dafoe said in an interview. "Kicking and punching. I think I know how to do that."

"I like doing [stunts], unless it's a skill that I can't learn quickly, like car stuff," Dafoe said. "I've got no pride in that. That doesn't matter. But when I see a stunt guy do anything that I should do, it's like someone doing the scene for you, because the physical stuff so roots everything else that it freaks me out. If I see, for instance, in post [production] that they didn't bring me back [for a simple shot], so they hire a some guy dressed in my costume walking away, I'll say, 'That is not my walk. That is not my ass.' It's all part of it. So I think it's important to do that."
