The Japanese actor says the actress-turned-helmer was so focused on her job behind the lens that she neglected eating properly while on the set, reported Huffington Post.
“It was surprising how much she trusted me, all of us, on the set. She was so determined. I was also surprised how skinny she got. You know, she was not eating much. I felt so bad I was the only one who got fat during filming,” he said.
“Thanks to her attitude and determination, everyone was able to be on the same page,” Miyavi added.
‘Unbroken’ is about American World War II hero Louis Zamperini, who survived a plane crash and endured years of tortures at the hands of the enemies.
The true-story drama will be released in US on Christmas Day this year.
