Eva Green: Sin movie was bonkers

Eva Green found her Sin City: A Dame to Kill For character fun to play because she's "bonkers".

The 34-year-old actress takes on the role of the seductive title dame, Ava Lord, in the upcoming action film by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez. While preparing for the gritty role, Eva made sure to approach the character with an open mindset.

"I watched a lot of film noir. Double Indemnity with Barbara Stanwyck, other films with Bette Davis. Ava Lord is a very extreme femme fatale, she's really very jaded, she manipulates men, she feels empowered and smarter when she does it, she's incredibly full-on - nothing is sacred," she explained to gq-magazine.co.uk. "The main thing is to have fun with those kind of characters. She's so free and corrupt, she's just bonkers. It really was so fun to play."

To give the movie a comic book strip feel, it was shot on a green-screen stage. Eva originally found the concept hard to get her head around but appreciated the presence of her co-stars, including Josh Brolin and Jessica Alba, to bring a human touch to filming.

"At first you're very overwhelmed but then you really get used to it. You know that Robert and Frank are going to do amazing things post filming," she explained. "To have real actors to act with is always the main thing when making a movie so that was fun and the atmosphere on set was really gentle, laid back and just incredibly fun."

When asked who she'd like to work with next, the brunette beauty revealed she has two big movie stars in mind.

"There's so many but I love Matthew McConaughey, I think he's really intentioned and so interesting. I would also love to work with Marion Cotillard," Eva smiled.
