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.
Warner Bros. Pictures has launched two online games–”Scorpioch Attack” and “Medusa’s Curse”–at the official website for Clash of the Titans, opening in 3D and 2D theaters on April 2. You can play the two games here!
Directed by Louis Leterrier, the film stars Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Danny Huston, Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen, Jason Flemyng, Alexa Davalos, Izabella Miko, Nicholas Hoult and Pete Postlethwaite.
Jake Gyllenhaal spoke with MTV News on the red carpet at the 82nd annual Academy Awards. He talked about “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time,” director Mike Newell’s adaptation of the video-game series of the same name. “You have no idea of what you’re going to see,” the actor teased. “It’s really good.”
Despite Gyllenhaal’s endorsement of “Prince of Persia,” most films based on video games have been met with harsh reviews from both critics and fans alike. But according to the actor, “Prince of Persia” is going to change that trend.
“I’m going to say right now that this will reinvent video-game adaptations,” he declared. “This will finally pull off what people hoped that video-game adaptations [are capable of].”

FemaleFirst reports the recent words pronounced by Gemma Arterton on her ‘former’ role as Cathy in Wuthering Heights:
Gemma Arterton is not starring in a big screen remake of Wuthering Heights.
It had been reported that Arterton was all set to star as Catherine Earnshaw in the Andrea Arnold directed movie alongside Ed Westwick as Heathcliff.
Speaking to MSN.com the actress said:”I was hoping that that would work out, but actually she’s looking for a pure Yorkshire lass – so any Yorkshire lasses out there who want to be Cathy in Wuthering Heights, she’s doing open auditioning.”
She added: “I think she [Arnold] will make the best Wuthering Heights film ever, she’s such an amazing director.”
There’s a new Clash of the Titans featurette with bits of Gemma (watch it here) and a brand new trailer for Prince of Persia (go here) for our enjoyment. Also, more candids from yesterday and a scan from Mail on Sunday thanks to Lorna!
Heather and Ruth both went to see The Little Dog Laughed on February 17, 19 and 20 – and kindly shared their gorgeous photos with us.
Heather:
Hi, been a reader of your site from the start & am a huge fan of Gemma! Last Wednesday (17th) I travelled to London from Liverpool to see The Little Dog Laughed, it was well worth going and I am actually going again to the last night can’t wait! Thought Id e-mail in my pics anyway!!
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.
