Haywire NY screening: Gina Carano pics and quotes
Tweet
Gina Carano: “I’ve dealt with men larger than me, smaller than me, I’ve been hit where I can’t catch up with my head, and I’ve been hit not so hard. It’s all about the chemistry with the person. There were no egos involved, it was all about creating the best fight scene that we could. It was ok to get hurt. With the stunt guys also, they were used to actresses. I actually had to tell that one stunt guy, ‘No, you put me into that wall as hard as you can.’ And he put me into it so hard I actually went white for a second. But I actually enjoyed that. Is that weird? …Fighting is the most honest form of communication you can get. [Michael]Fassbender just became a mentor to me, he was so supportive. And he was so down to just bang into everything we could, vases, everything. He always was like ‘We need to slam our head into that wall a little harder.“

Tweet
“Meet Miss Haywire. This high-tension action thriller — stars Ewan McGregor, Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas, Michael Fassbender, Channing Tatum and was directed by Steven Soderbergh. Yet all anyone wants to talk about is the film’s lone female: Gina Carano.”
Ewan McGregor: (on Carano)That girl is a star, just you wait and see…The movie is amazing, but at the end of the day, who doesn’t like to watch a girl kicking some ass?”

Haywire trailer 2 & co-star Michael Fassbender on the fightscene

Fassbender: “I remember it clearly…’She is supposed to pick up a vase and it breaks away, and the stunt guy said, ‘She’s going to grab it and hit you on the side of the head. But the one thing that’s important as she swings toward your head is you don’t look at her. You turn your head away and take the hit.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got it.’ Of course, Gina picked up the vase and I looked right at it. It was like a camera bulb had gone off…He(his character) makes his first maneuver on her at the door, and it should be a quick kill but it all goes wrong. And then it’s a matter of finding anything, something hard or that has a sharp edge. It’s an anything goes type thing. These fights are messy. Yeah, it was fun. A few bruises though…I suppose the life [these spies] are leading seems to be an exciting one, so there are elements of sex and death. (referring to the triangle choke) I mean, I just put my head where they tell me to.“
