Winslet Persevered Through Difficult Filming Despite the danger and also contracting influenza during filming, Winslet carried on. She told the Los Angeles Times in 1999, “I had to sort of shimmy out of the coat to get free. I had no breath left. I thought I’d burst. And Jim just said, ‘OK, let’s go again’. That was his attitude. I didn’t want to be a wimp so I didn’t complain”.

While filming a stunt where a truck plunged into the Black Sea, Statham was meant to exit just before impact but became trapped inside the vehicle as it sank. Fortunately, his skills extended beyond acting.
