hard
It's hard for me to perform in English.
almost tv
Sometimes I'm doing a big movie, or sometimes I'm doing a TV show, but as an actor, it's almost the same thing for me. If I'm doing action, or comedy, or something more heartfelt, it's a different approach, but it's all acting for me.
watched
I was very comfortable on the set of 'Lost'. I was so nervous when I went on to the set because I had just watched all the 'Lost' episodes. I was, like, a fan. A big fan.
proud glad industry
I am glad to be here to create a new history in our industry. I'm very proud of this.
drama epic balance
Carl Rinsch has a good balance between the visual and the drama and action, so I thought if he's going to direct, we can make a new, epic film. My fear was gone when I met him.
nice style mixtures
Especially for this film [ 47 ronin] there's a nice mixture between western and eastern. So Ronin wearing the boots, like Western style. It's a nice mixture.
skills action just-one
Action is just one of my skills.
fans nervous bigs
I was very comfortable on the set of Lost. I was so nervous when I went on to the set because I had just watched all the Lost episodes. I was, like, a fan. A big fan.
black-and-white years culture
It was a black and white film [at first]. And then it changed to colour film, and I was surprised and culture shocked when I was six or seven years old. And then HD, then 3D now. So what's going? What's coming next? It's so exciting.
japan done samurai
I've done a lot of Samurai film in Japan, and sometimes done the choreography by myself.
mixing culture kind
This is a good thing, mixing culture to make something new, something no one has ever seen. This is kind of a new history.
country speak-english japan
A lot of country making films in English, but in Japan we are very shy to speak English.
japan samurai lasts
This is almost the most famous story The last samurai - Samurai story - in Japan.
children years long
I was a child actor, so when I started filming when I was five years old, it was a long time ago.
