Olivia Wilde as revealed that her two latest movie experiences have been 'life changing'.
The actress is all set to star alongside Garrett Hedlund and Jeff bridges in the highly anticipated Tron: Legacy and is currently working on Cowboys & Aliens, which is directed by Jon Favreau and stars Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig.
The actress was in San Diego last weekend as the first trailer for Tron: Legacy was revealed to the fans, the movie comes twenty eight years after the original.
Dark Horizons caught up with her at Comic Con in San Diego to talk about her current movie projects. "It’s an entirely different experience. Both of them have been life changing and I’m very proud of both.
"Tron just felt like a revolution. It was born here [at Comic-Con]. We talked about it in the panel the other day. There would be no 'Tron Legacy' if not for Hall H three years ago when Joe Kosinski brought a tiny bit of test footage and the response was so wildly positive that the studio green-lit the film. We owe Tron to Comic-Con, so it’s a big deal for us."
She is now filming Cowboys and Aliens and admits that she felt like she had to do a Western at some point in her career.
"Doing a western is kind of a right of passage as an actor and especially as an American actor. It feels really interesting to be doing something that represents everything about this country and American cinema.
"And being able to do it with people that really understand that genre; [we’ve got] Steven Spielberg, who knows Sci-Fi; Ron Howard, who knows the Western; Jon Favreau, who knows how to make a kick-ass movie and communicate with actors. And we’ve got this amazing cast. Doing Cowboys Vs. Aliens has been breaking a lot of boundaries for me."
As well as Tron: legacy and Cowboys & Aliens, Wilde has also completed work on The Next Three Days, which also stars Liam Neeson and Russell Crowe, and Butter which sees her work alongside Jennifer Garner and Hugh Jackman.
