Acting is not just about portraying the character, but also about bringing out a sense of realism in the scene. And by having said that, Jason Sudeikis earns “the tough guy actor award” by Anne Hathaway on sets 'Colossal' for shooting a chilly sequence in freezing cold water which was supposed to be pre-heated.

The scene was shot in the month of November at Langley, Canada.
Leaving no stone unturned for Nacho Vigalondo's directed sci-fi comedy, the tough-man Jason took up the challenge and jumped into the ice-cold water to complete the scene.
“I'm glad we didn't have to do a second take, but I will always remember it. It was also the ride before the ride because it wasn't horrible. But it was cold. My stunt double just happened – to be my stand-in – happened to be a polar bear swimmer. So he was like “no, it's no problem.” Because I was like, “what's going to happen to my body?” I think it was 40 degree water,” says Jason to an international portal in a recent interview.
Adding to that, Anne Hathaway comments, “Jason gets the tough guy actor award on this movie, because for reasons that were out of anybody's control we had to shoot that pool sequence deep into Canadian November. And the pool was unheated. Definitely, a most memorable day in your life, that you're trying to forget.”
'Colossal' releases this Friday.
