In a recent interview with Coming Soon, actress Olivia Wilde said that her experience filming Tron: Legacy left her feeling like she "had given birth to a 19-pound baby."

"[It was] the most difficult thing I've ever done. We shot some 20-hour days, we were wearing the suits, which are not easy to wear. I was doing a lot of my own stunts and training a lot of the time. Really pushing myself physically as well as mentally. It was an epic undertaking. It was a HUGE film to shoot in those few days. I was so proud to be a part of it. The morning that we wrapped it was an unbelievable feeling. We all just lost it. It was sunrise and we couldn't believe we were actually done."

But, if you think Wilde is complaining, think again. She said that she was "lucky" to have worked on the film and that she would happily return to film a sequel if Tron: Legacy is successful. The project gave the actress a whole new appreciation for the amount of work that goes into bringing a sci-fi universe to life.

"I don't write-off large sci-fi films so flippantly as I did. I look at anyone who's had to put on a rubber suit and I'm, like, 'Oh wow, you're awesome! You survived!' (laughs) None of the suits are like our suits, though. Our suits have really risen to a new level of discomfort, but it's brilliant and well worth it. It's totally worth it."


Directed by Joseph Kosinski, Tron: Legacy sees the return of Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner to the roles of Kevin Flynn and Tron, respectively.
