What was it like working with James McAvoy?
Freeman: Great. He’s a hard working kid. Maybe too hard. By that I don’t mean he overacts. I just mean that this is an action movie and he got a little ill. But we were in Prague so I remember working in Bulgaria and I also had the same affliction that he came down with. It was like an ear affection that’s really debilitating. Had something to do with the water I’m sure. Q: An ear infection from the water? Freeman: Yeah, I was submerged in an icy stream for awhile. Q: On “Wanted”? Freeman: No, on another picture called “The Contract,” which never opened here. Q: What was Angelina Jolie like? Freeman: What do you want me to say? Something good or something bad? Q: Whatever you would like to say. Freeman: First thing I’m going to say is something bad. She’s already taken. She’s an excellent person. Excellent actress. A joy to be with, a joy to work with. She comes by it honestly. Whatever it is, she’s got it. Q: Did she bring her family to the set? Freeman: Oh yeah. They were all there.
