Aaron Taylor-Johnson reveals explosives training for new film ‘Fuze’

Aaron Taylor-Johnson recently shared an exciting experience while shooting his new film Fuze.

The 35-year-old actor, who played Will Tranter in David Mackenzie’s directorial, revealed that he attended an explosives boot camp during filming.

In an exclusive conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, he explained, “We dug deep to build the character. One example was bringing on Nick Orr, our professional EOD [Explosive Ordnance Disposal] consultant. I was genuinely inspired by his service. We had the opportunity to go through an ‘explosives boot camp,’ learning how to build and detonate them.”

The 28 Years Later star also spoke about working with his Fuze co-star, Theo James.

Speaking to the outlet, he added, “I’ve admired his work for a long time. [My only regret was] that we didn’t have more to do, as he’s a generous scene partner. I was inspired by his choices and I really enjoyed being in his presence.”

It is pertinent to mention that Mackenzie, 59, hinted a sequel to the action-thriller.

“Yeah. And we’ve already started investigating," he revealed. "So if it catches the imagination of the audience …”

For the unversed, Fuze was released on Friday, September 5.
