I was genuinely inspired by his service.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cWe had the opportunity to go through an \u2018explosives boot camp,\u2019 learning how to build and detonate them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Theo James also stars in the film and though Aaron enjoyed working with the White Lotus star, he was disappointed they didn&#8217;t have many scenes together.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He said: \u201cI\u2019ve admired his work for a long time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We had a rare weekend before filming with David to rehearse and collaborate on our scenes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;[My only regret was] that we didn\u2019t have more to do, as he\u2019s a generous scene partner.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI was inspired by his choices and I really enjoyed being in his presence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And the Bullet Train star was happy to film in the heart of London.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He said: \u201cI love filming in London and the local crews are exceptional.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI think the challenge for us was locking off streets and having our background cast evacuate en masse. Then resetting, whilst letting the traffic pass through.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Fuze gave Aaron the chance to reunite with his Outlaw King director David and he finds the filmmaker&#8217;s way of working &#8220;exciting&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He said: &#8220;[The script] felt original, fast-paced \u2014 a twisted, suspenseful crime drama set in London.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThe prospect of working with [Mackenzie] again felt exciting, as I love his process and style. He\u2019s always striving to capture the authenticity in every moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Meanwhile, David admitted there is already a possibility of a Fuze sequel further down the line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Asked if the door is open for a second movie, the director said: \u201cYeah. And we\u2019ve already started investigating.
