Thats a good way to wake up!

[in mock announcement voice] And are you ready to smash California!

You know thats funny, I love movies I see four or five movies a week.

Its a strange thing, but great!

This is an amazing character for Dwayne, because hes never done this.

Hes played heroic, I mean hes Hercules for fucks sake!

Because hes just like Do you need me to move this car, Mr Peyton?

[both laugh] Its true, but it just wasnt the movie I wanted to make though.

[laughs]

So its an accidental theme!

But it does add an extra dimension to the characters…

I mean… everything was super hard [laughs]!

People ask What was the hardest day?

and Im like They were all really hard!

and we had to figure it out.

What a shot, it took two days to get this thing!

I think it was like eighty stunt people on that set, so it was a crazy endeavour.

A favourite Jason Statham film… oh my god I have to think about really all of his movies…

probably…The Transporter?

I cant argue with that.

First of all its called fuckingDie Hard!

What a killer title!

And I think thats what comes through.

In terms of whats next I will have a nap probably!

So I didnt even really take a breath you know?

I wanna put my hand up!

Brad Peyton, thank you very much!

San Andreas is out now at cinemas.
