"We had a fight scene that was probably the most gritty, arduous, difficult, intense two weeks of my life," Urban told MTV News. "We gave each other a really good crack, we really did. It was all done within the bounds of safety, but I felt very grateful to be working with him. The most fun I had was throwing Bruce around an office, smashing stuff up."

"We were in a room full of guys that all had the same like mindset," added Willis. "We all wanted it to look brutal and no one really came in on those nights when we were working and said, 'Now look, this is too brutal.' They did cut down a couple of things that were just too much, too brutal, but we were all on the same page. It's like we were playing sports again. We represented the graphic part of the graphic novel."

"We had the opportunity to actually talk to a guy who worked in the CIA and was alive and worked during the time that you were allowed to kill people -- a license to kill. That guy is still alive and we got to talk to him. He told us some things. Shocking, shocking things."

"It seldom comes to that, especially in any job where life-taking is part of your job description. But we both play guys who aim guns at other people and pull the trigger."
