OHMYGOSSIP — Award-winning actress Jolie Angelina was “so determined” to make a success of directing ‘Unbroken’ that she barely ate, according to Miyavi, one of the stars of the biopic.
The 39-year-old star – who’s spent most of her working life in front of the camera – helmed the project and Miyavi, one of the stars of the biopic, has revealed the stress of the job took a toll on her health.
The 33-year-old Japanese actor explained: “It was surprising how much she trusted me, all of us, on the set. She was so determined. I was also surprised how skinny she got. You know, she was not eating much.”
Speaking to HuffPost Live, he added: “I felt so bad I was the only one who got fat during filming.”
Miyavi revealed recently that he vomited on the set of the World War II film – which is based on the 2010 non-fiction book by Laura Hillenbrand – in front of Angelina, because he was so nervous.
The actor, who plays torturous sergeant Matsuhiro Watanabe, told the New York Post’s Page Six column: “I literally threw up. But Angie knows how actors feel. She said, ‘Just be yourself. Accept yourself.’ I got back to the set . . . and I threw up again.”
