Since her breakthrough as a Bond girl in Quantum of Solace, Gemma Arterton has moved on apace, mixing mega-budget Hollywood with low-cost Isle of Man. Craig McLean meets an actress destined not merely to be remembered as Strawberry Fields for ever.

June 2009, Shepperton Studios, Surrey. On the set of Clash of the Titans, a toga-clad Gemma Arterton is gracefully evoking the aura of a mysterious spiritual guide while clutching a script and an iPhone. She is playing the ‘wise and ethereal’ Io in this big-budget remake of the cult 1981 film based on the myth of Perseus, Zeus’s mortal son who leads a band of warriors to defeat Hades, battling Medusa and the Kraken along the way. She shares the screen with Avatar’s Sam Worthington (as Perseus), Liam Neeson (Zeus), Ralph Fiennes (Hades) and, courtesy of the 85 special-effects and animation teams employed by the director Louis Leterrier, a menagerie of fantastical creatures.

Warner Bros has turned to Greek mythology for this year’s first bona fide action blockbuster, a $70 million remake of the 1981’s Clash of the Titans. Tom Huddleston visits the set.

(…)

Leading lady Arterton has vivid memories of the location shoot. “I loved the scorpions in the original, but in this version they’re the size of a house. I spent lots of time running away from scorpions, with gravel in my shoes.”

Gemma Arterton: She may be best known for her St Trinian’s and Bond girl role but all that is about to change for Arterton in the next few months.

The actress is taking on not just one but two big budget blockbusters in the coming weeks, which should raise her profile in America.

First up is the remake of Clash of the Titans, directed by Louis Leterrier and starring man of the moment Sam Worthington.

Gemma Arterton has revealed she insisted on being tied up when she was playing a kidnap victim – even when she didn’t need to be.

The 24-year-old, who shot to fame in the St Trinian’s movie and Bond film Quantum Of Solace, plays a millionaire’s daughter who is kidnapped and held to ransom in gritty British independent film The Disappearance Of Alice Creed, and revealed her method acting required she be bound, even when it wasn’t being shown on camera.

Posing in suspenders and high heels, Bond girl Gemma Arterton insists…’I look really average’

She won an army of male admirers when she played Strawberry Fields in the hit 007 film Quantum Of Solace. But Gemma Arterton thinks she was ‘not hot enough’ to play a Bond girl and that she is ‘really average’.

Her fans may disagree – and these pictures of her posing in stockings, stilettos and a coat for the latest edition of GQ magazine make her look anything but plain.

The outfit is reminiscent of her chase scene through the streets of Panama with Bond actor Daniel Craig, when she wore nothing except a mac and boots.

But, in an interview with GQ magazine, she said: ‘In comparison to many actresses I think I’m really average. When I got the Bond film there was this big hoo-ha about me not being hot enough. I have to say, I agree. I don’t think I’m in that realm.’

Gemma Arterton was struck with an embarrassing condition while she was shooting Clash Of The Titans.

The British actress, who plays Zeus’ lover Io in the Louis Leterrier remake alongside Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson, was left with scars and cuts after filming.

“I’ve still got scars on my knees from when I was filming Clash Of The Titans – we were up a volcano and there was like gravelly sort of floor and I had to roll down a hill and it was called the ‘Clash rash’; everyone ended up getting it, just cuts all over themselves,” she said.

But rather than moaning about the injuries, Gemma – who told how she loved being able to take part in the action scenes and tried to do all her own stunts – is proud to show them off as battle scars.

“It was good though. It was kind of like marks to show how hard I worked, on my knees. They are there forever,” she added.

Gemma Arterton says the experience of playing a kidnap victim was “physically exhausting”.

The actress, who shot to fame in the St Trinian’s movie and Bond film Quantum Of Solace, took on the role in the film The Disappearance Of Alice Creed.

She said: “I actually didn’t realise when I was doing it that it was really hard, you know, I’d just go straight to bed – I was exhausted and often I was in tears for like eight hours a day.”

Gemma, 24, went on: “It was physically exhausting, because I was handcuffed and tied to a bed.

“It was full on, but that’s why I love acting, all these different experiences that you would never have in your own life, hopefully, you know, so it was great, a great experience.”

The Disappearance Of Alice Creed was the feature film debut of writer-director J Blakeson and was shown at the London Film Festival last year.

Gemma joins Holly & Phil to talk about her West End debut and her five new films!

At just 24 years old, Gemma Arterton has starred alongside Hollywood greats such as Daniel Craig, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson. But she’s relishing the opportunity to be back on stage.

Gemma is appearing in new play A Little Dog Laughed, about the shallow and superficial world of show business. It’s a cautionary tale of a handsome film actor, played by Rupert Friend, who tries to come out of the closet.

Gemma Arterton was having a ball as she celebrated the impact Lottery funding has had around the UK.

Casino Royale [sic!] star Gemma teamed up with dancers from the English National Ballet as well as youth groups to raise awareness of the £25 million raised by Lottery players each week towards good causes.

They were launching a six-week nationwide tour – the National Lottery’s Britain Has Balls Tour – which will call at various locations to spread the word.

Bond Girl Gemma Arterton has dropped two dress sizes after cutting down on alcohol.

The 24-year-old was pictured with what seemed to be a double chin (sic!) last year, but there wasn’t an inch of spare flesh on her when I caught up with her at the War Child concert in London last week – and she puts it all down to the demands of her West End play The Little Dog Laughed.

‘I haven’t been drinking in the evenings because I’ve been working so hard on the play.

‘I don’t get out until late so there isn’t much time for wining and dining afterwards,’ she told me.

These are actually bits from the current issue of Total Film – a Gemma feature that we don’t have the scans of yet. Expect those later today. ;) However, they picked some amusing bits, thus for your entertainment:

‘Clash of the Titans’ actress Gemma Arterton says her co-stars fought over who got the chance to wash her during one particular scene.

Gemma Arterton’s male co-stars used to try and wash her with a loofah.

The ‘Clash of the Titans’ actress – who plays Greek mythological being Io in the forthcoming remake of the 1981 movie – was ogled by her fellow actors as she bathed under a waterfall during one of their fight scenes.

She said: “There’s a moment which all the cast found hilarious where there’s all this fighting going on, all these men being completely macho, and then there’s me in a waterfall with my hair down, washing. All the boys were like, ‘Who’s going in with the loofah to give Io a wash?’ ”

Very long and very cool interview – you can also listen to the soundfile at the source. :D The other interviews linked at the bottom over there are worth checking out as well. :)

If you don’t know who Gemma Arterton is…I’m confident that’ll change by June. As the female lead in both Clash of the Titans and Prince of Persia, Gemma Arterton is right on the cusp of being a huge movie star. But when I was on the set of director Louis Leterrier’s Clash of the Titans last August outside of London, Gemma Arterton came across as not only grounded, but completely unaffected by the high profile movies she was in. While some actors might let it go to their head, Gemma didn’t seem like she’d be one of them.

Anyway, during the roundtable interview with Arterton, she talked about her character Io in the film, how she had been finding her way as filming went on, filming such huge movies and what that’s like, and a ton more as we spoke to her for around 30 minutes. [...]

Interview with BAFTA nominee Nicholas Hoult

Nic spilled the beans on upcoming film Clash of the Titans, saying co-star Gemma Arterton was just “one of the boys”.

The BAFTA nominee said: “Working with Sam Worthington and Gemma was amazing.

“Gemma was the only girl on set, but she was a great laugh. She was just like one of the lads. I was the youngest so everyone looked after me.

“I didn’t get any brownie points from my mates starring opposite a Bond girl though. They tend to take the mick rather than give me any kudos.”

Nicholas is keeping his fingers crossed to be crowned Rising Star at this year’s ceremony. Vote at orange.co.uk/bafta.
