... one, to Ireland, where we shot season two, which allowed us to really open up the show. Gough went on to explain that some of the architecture of the show will change, and that had a lot to do with the move to Ireland. (Photo: AMC ). Yes. And we move away from that in this season. Like I said, we'll see more of the work. Frankly, one of the reason we moved from New Orleans to Ireland is to give us more landscapes 'cause as you know, there really isn't. What we saw in New Orleans is pretty much what it looks like, and we wanted to show a lot more variety to the world. So, that's what we were able to do with the move to Ireland that seemed good.

From ‘badlands’ To Worse For Sunny In Season 2 Of Epic Amc Series

... (Photo: Carlos Serrao/AMC). Calling in from Cape Town, South Africa, Daniel Wu says he’s enjoying filming the feature film “Tomb Raider,” which has served as something of a respite from the rigors of his day job, the AMC martial arts drama “Into the Badlands.”. “Definitely I need recovery time, for sure, and I’m definitely enjoying ‘Tomb Raider,’ where I don’t have to fight as crazily as in ‘Badlands,’ the 42-year-old actor says with a laugh. “I look at it as more of a vacation because I’m not physically enduring the kind of stuff I have to do for ‘Badlands.’”.

Daniel Wu On Why He Almost Didn't Star On Into The Badlands

... we doing? This is horrible.”. You said you have a background in martial arts. I started martial arts when I was 11 and I started learning traditional Shaolin Kung Fu because I saw “Shaolin Temple” and I wanted to learn exactly what Jet Li did. Then I switched to competitive Wushu, a form-based martial arts. As a kid, I thought that was cool, so I dabbled in everything. Do you think you could play this role if you didn’t have previous experience in martial arts. No. No, no. You really have to have a foundation, I think. When I first started working on the show, I was only an executive producer in charge of martial arts and I had not put myself forward to play Sunny. In my head, I was like, we should find someone late 20 s or early 30 s because if it goes on for six or seven years, your body has to last that long and I was 40. Can I still be doing that at 48? Even now, I’m not sure. So we went and auditioned hundreds of people and got really great martial artists who were not great actors or vice versa, and you need a balance. We met four or five guys who were both, and the producers turned to me and said, “You ...

Orla Brady On Swanky Martial Arts, Challenging Stunts

... I just—I loved this season. The challenge, if you'd like, was doing stunts, but it turns out I am [laughs] a pacifist. A few years ago I had to do something where I played FBI and we had to do gun training. I got all the shots straight into the thing. I'm a natural-born assassin. I’m the same with the stunts. I can't imagine hitting or hurting somebody, but man, I can do it. I mean, when we were doing this scene I loved it.

It gives a broader scope compared to last season. New Orleans was basically swamp and more swamp and more swamp, we didn’t have mountains or any of that stuff. That was challenging about last season, we ...
