Kate Beckinsale: I’m not comfortable doing action roles

The English actress has claimed that she is not comfortable doing action films and admitted that they are out of her comfort zone.  The ‘Underworld’ actress stated that she likes simple light roles which are easy on the eyes.

Beckinsale claimed that filming an action movie is always very difficult as you have to go through a lot of physical training for it and there is a lot of hard work involved. However, she admitted that the result is always fascinating
and the sequences look great on screen.

The British star has worked in four of the ‘Underworld’ films with the most recent one released earlier this year. The film has been widely appreciated mainly for Beckinsale’s role and the breathtaking action sequences.

“My comfort zone is probably more in the independent sphere, but there’s something very fascinating about doing this movie and then six or seven months later when you actually see it with the special effects and all that, it looks
very different than what it felt like when you were doing it,” she was quoted as saying in an interview.

The ‘Contraband’ actress admits that her mother also thinks that action does not suit her. She is now looking forward to her next release; a remake of ‘Total Recall’ which also stars Colin Farrell and Jessica Biel.

“I still find it an incredible novelty that I’m allowed to do that. My mother still laughs at the thought of me running around based on my success in PE as a child, which was very poor! It’s fantasy,” she concluded.

Total Recall is set to release worldwide in August.
