The drowning scene was the most intense thing I've ever done, she says her words tumbling over themselves.

"It was so frightening and so amazing and exciting. We spent four or five hours in the water doing take after take in that cold f...ing water.

I was bound and gagged and thrown off the boat into the water. Water was coming into my mouth, it was a struggle to breath.

There was a scuba diver underneath throwing me up after ten seconds but sometimes he'd come in a little late and that was terrifying

It was pretty frightening, because I’m tied down and have got this gag in my mouth, and then I threw myself out of a boat and into a pool. You don’t kind of account for the moment when you fall in and there’s water rushing into your mouth through this gag and your hands and legs are tied so you can’t move around, and five seconds is a fucking long time when you’re drowning. [Laughs] It was pretty terrifying, and there were some moments where I definitely had to take a time-out. I think we used the shot where I was the most terrified, so it worked out in the end, but I definitely have a fear of drowning now.
