As she arrived at the Today Show studios Gemma Arterton was looking every inch the sophisticated lady but the actress soon revealed she loved playing a ‘tough girl’ on screen.
The 27-year-old actress was dressed to impress in a smart grey coat and a pair of nude Nicholas Kirkwood heels as she arrived ahead of the show.
As as she stepped out on stage Gemma showed off her curvaceous shape in a plunging black dress with lace detail around the bust.
Speaking to Matt about her role the British actress admitted her role in Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters interested her because of the action-packed scenes.
She said: ‘It was really attractive to me to play a tough girl I have a lot of action. I get beaten up pretty bad.’
Speaking about her character Gretel and starring alongside Jeremy Renner as Hansel she said: ‘We go hand in hand together as a team.’
She added: ‘I really enjoyed all the action stuff, it was great.’
Gemma also showed off her impressive American accent which left Lauer astonished with how realistic it sounded.
