Hollywood actress Michelle Lee, who has acted in amazing action scenes in many Hollywood films like Scarlett Johnson movie Black Widow, Johnny Depp movie Pirates of the Caribbean, Brad Pitt movie Bullet Train, Tom Hardy movie Venom, is going to impress in the latest action sequence in ‘Tiger 3’. Action-oriented movie ‘Tiger 3’ starring Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif. It is known that the trailer of this movie has been released recently. In this, the towel fight scene between Katrina and Michelle Lee was shown in a scene. Needless to say, that one scene went viral on the internet. This towel fight scene was shot in a Turkish hammam.
Mitchell is not surprised that a small scene of a towel fight in ‘Tiger 3’ has gone viral. That’s the reason. He said that he did research for two weeks on how to do the fight scene between Mitchell and Katrina, and how to make it new and connect with the audience. And Michelle Lee said, “I’m not at all surprised that everyone is talking about the little scene of my towel fight with Katrina. I believe it will be different enough that everyone will be talking about it while shooting it. Katrina and I practiced together for a few weeks before filming this fight. The fight and the way it was designed is amazing. We enjoyed it a lot while acting in it. It is designed in international standards. Katrina Kaif is a great actress. Very professional person. It was very difficult for him to act in this fight. He said it was very easy to work with him.
She also said, “We wrapped towels around our bodies and took part in the action sequence. An action sequence like this requires precise action choreography. It is very beautifully designed. It seemed challenging. Participating in a fight sequence while maintaining a certain distance without injuring each other is also a challenging matter. There were no injuries due to both of them being very professional,” he said.
Aditya Chopra Uncompromised produced Tiger 3 as a part of Spy Universe produced by Yash Raj Films banner. Directed by Manish Sharma, the film will release on November 12 in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil languages on the occasion of Diwali.
‘The towel fight scene at the Hammam was pretty epic when we were shooting it!’ : Tiger 3 actress Michelle Lee
Hollywood actor Michelle Lee, who specializes in shooting extreme fight sequences, has acted with Scarlett Johansson in Black Widow, Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean, Brad Pitt in Bullet Train & Tom Hardy in Venom. She has now been roped in for Salman Khan & Katrina Kaif starrer action spectacle Tiger 3. With Kat, she has delivered the most viral action sequence on the internet in a long, long time – the towel fight scene at a Turkish hammam in Tiger 3 !
Michelle isn’t surprised that the towel fight set-piece has become one of the biggest talking points from the Tiger 3 trailer! She reveals Katrina and she had rehearsed for over 2 weeks before they shot the sequence!
She says, “I’m not surprised. I thought it was pretty epic when we were shooting it. We learned and practiced the fight for a couple of weeks and then shot it. The set design was absolutely gorgeous and the fight was really fun to do. It was wonderful being on an international film.”
Michelle is all praises for Katrina Kaif whose dedication towards perfecting action sequences has bowled her over. She says, “Katrina was as graceful and professional as can be. She worked really hard on getting the movements precise and making sure all the movements flowed. It was clear she had experience in choreography so it was super easy to work with her. We worked up a sweat!”
Michelle says managing the towels wrapped around their bodies was the biggest challenge of this Hammam sequence.
The actress says, “One of the main challenges was definitely the wardrobe! Our towels needed to stay in the proper place and with so much movement and fight choreography, it was definitely a challenge. We ended up having the towels sewn closed at certain points and that helped a lot.”
She adds, “Another challenge was striking each other in the perfect amount of distance so that it looks close enough to be dangerous and strong but far enough to not actually hurt each other. Can you imagine if I actually got her?! But I’m a professional lol. So things went smoothly, neither of us got hit so we just had to make it work for the camera.”
Tiger 3, from the YRF Spy Universe, has been produced by Aditya Chopra and has been directed by Maneesh Sharma. It is set to release this Diwali, Nov 12, Sunday in Hindi, Tamil & Telugu!
