Matt Damon felt giddy while making 'The Great Wall'

Actor Matt Damon says there was a certain giddiness
while making action-adventure fantasy "The Great Wall".
"Being on set,
there was a certain giddiness, we felt as we were doing something that had never
been done before. It is hard to do that in a medium that has been around for 100
years. There has never been a collaboration at this scale and the crew
represented that," Damon said in a statement to IANS.
The 2016
action-adventure fantasy was co-produced by Chinese and American companies. The
film will have its Indian television premiere on April 29 on Sony PIX.
On
the film, Damon said: "You had half Chinese crew and rest of them had a mix of
Americans, South Africans, Europeans, Australians and people from New Zealand.
We really were this international group.
"We had a hundred translators
running around the set trying to make sure everybody could understand each
other. Then at the same time all of the cast and crew had made a lot of movies
all over the world so we had that common language among us. It was just really
fun to be on set as the scale of the production is beyond imagination. It felt
like a beautiful cultural collaboration that everyone was getting together and
sharing an art form that we love so much."
