The Thank You For Smoking star says 'the whole day sucks' when you have to make those scenes.
In Chief of Station, his most recent film, The Dark Knight and Thank You For Smoking star Aaron Eckhart says he had some pretty rough days. There are scenes in which his character is being really broken down, physically and emotionally tortured, and while obviously that wasn't really happening to Eckhart, that's still a pretty difficult day of filming.
In the film,"Ben is a former CIA station chief whose world comes crashing down after his wife, a former operative, dies in a terrible accident. Soon, a cryptic message sends him back into the shadowy underworld of Eastern Europe, teaming up with a former adversary to unravel a conspiracy that challenges everything he thought he knew about his wife and the agency that he worked for."
Eckhart took the part pretty seriously, and had a pretty rough few days while trying to make the part feel honest. "Well, it was written differently," Eckhart told ComicBook."And Alex comes in, he goes, 'Aaron, remember that scene in blah blah movie?' And that guy like that? I go, yeah. And he goes, let's do it like that, and blah, blah. So you talked to Jesse about it, and so it went deeper than had was originally written, and that all happened on basically the day. I had to go to a place where I didn't personally want to go because it sucks.
Chief of Station is now avaialble on digital platforms like Fandango At Home, Prime Video, and Apple TV+.
