Naomi Watts wasn’t allowed to complain about pain on her new movie.<\/p>\n
The 42-year-old actress – who has sons Sacha, three, and Kai, two, with long-term partner Liev Schreiber – was sent to boot camp to prepare for her role as real-life former undercover CIA agent Valerie Plame in new movie ‘Fair Game’ and admits she found it tough.<\/p>\n
She said: “The director, Doug Liman sent me off to boot camp. He thought it was important I had the same tough exterior in the movie as Valerie, and that I looked too soft and maternal.<\/p>\n
“I’d just had a baby, Kai, on December 13 and I read the script on December 28. We were filming in February.<\/p>\n
“As Doug was walking out of the boot camp, they kicked me in the shins and threw me to the ground. When I went, ‘Ow’, they said, ‘Don’t say that again unless you need to go to the hospital.”<\/p>\n
Because she went back to work so soon after giving birth, Naomi admits she doesn’t think she was really “up to” such an intensive physical project.<\/p>\n
She added: “I did paramilitary training and I was allowed to have Kai every few hours to feed him. But otherwise, I couldn’t have anyone else there.<\/p>\n
“It was intense and not something I was really up to. I did incredible things that I’ll never get to do, or wish to do again, you know, setting off explosives, ramming cars without a seatbelt or a helmet.”<\/p>\n
