Denzel Washington admitted that he enjoyed the action scenes in his new movie The Book of Eli.
The Oscar winning actor takes on the central role in the Hughes brothers latest movie set in a post apocalyptic America.
In an interview with Dark Horizons the actor said: "It was a lot of fun, actually. Jeff Amata who is a disciple of Danny Inosanto is a contemporary of Bruce Lee.
"So I was training with some of the top, top guys. That was hard but it was a lot of fun just to stretch every day.
"I read the script. I know I win! Just to go down that road, that avenue was fun."
The movie follows a lone man fights his way across America in order to protect a sacred book that holds the secrets to saving humankind.
"I watched the film last night. It was the first time I've seen it finished though I've seen it numerous times.
"It stuck out to me that line I say about the Bible, that this is probably the reason the war started to begin with.
"The point being, it's not that far-fetched. Not that this is a cautionary tale, necessarily, but it's been going on for thousands of years. Hopefully, we're just entertainment."
