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.
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.
hard
It's hard for me to perform in English.
fans nervous bigs

skills action just-one
Action is just one of my skills.
years kimonos armor
I've been wearing kimono for several years, and armor.
japan samurai lasts
I've done Last Samurai in Japan, in LA, in New Zealand. Even in Japan it is very hard to shoot, because there's been so many changes. Only around a temple can we shoot.
glasses culture done
When i've done camera test, after we've shot and I've seen the monitor with the glasses (wearing a Kimono) and looking by myself in 3D. Oh my god. Especially for a Samurai film. I've never seen that. It's kind of a culture shock.
betrayal saws tvs
I saw a lot of 47 Ronin on the TV, in the films, and I've done Chushingura Gaiden Yotsuya Kaidan [Crest of Betrayal, 1994] directed by Kinji Fukasaku.
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.
japan samurai lasts
This is almost the most famous story The last samurai - Samurai story - in Japan.
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.
japan done samurai
I've done a lot of Samurai film in Japan, and sometimes done the choreography by myself.
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.
