I think different than some of my other roles, this is one where I could really let shades of myself fold in, and to be very vulnerable and very, I guess, naturalistic in that sense,&quot; the actress said.</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Jack Reynor.

The Irish actor said playing an action hero was something that he always dreamed of.</p><p>&quot;I always tell people that I watched Die Hard when I was six years of age for the first time. And that became my favorite film. It was almost like a mantra for me. I would just watch it on repeat like three or four times over in a day,&quot; he said.</p><p>&quot;I always wanted to do something that felt like really action-heavy. And you know, I&#x27;ve done a couple of things like that in the past but this was, I think maybe the most fulfilling experience of that that I’ve had. It was really a lot of fun and put a smile on my face going to work everyday.&quot;.</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Chloë Grace Moretz.

And I think it navigates them in a way where it will start conversations that are really interesting. Something that really struck me, it&#x27;s not a part of my storyline but I found really interesting, is the story of the war veterans, which I think you know, also feeds into some innocent people can really get caught up in situations where they end up being used.&quot;</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Photo credit: Prime Video " The="" src="https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2022/tfc/10/24/peripheral_s1_1080x1350_pre_final_en-in__thumb.jpg"/><figcaption><em>Prime Video &quot;The Peripheral&quot;</em></figcaption></figure></div><p>Based on the 2014 book by William Gibson, &#x27;The Peripheral&#x27; is produced by the creators of &#x27;Westworld.&#x27; It is now streaming on Prime Video.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/DeWOchXx9CU?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more News on <a href="https://www.iwanttfc.com/#!/browse/Genres/News/tag_id_genres/id_news" target="_blank">iWantTFC</a></div>
