spoke about how much he enjoyed the project "It
was great fun and that should be coming out pretty soon."
He
also spoke about the kinds of things he learned from Samuel L.
Jackson while on the South African set.
"It is not a conscious
education. You soak up some of the techniques and maybe you'll use them at a
later date."
