She recently admitted that she is shocked that critics and film fans have accepted her as an action heroine in films like Underworld and Van Helsing. The star – who is the daughter of British comedy actor Richard Beckinsale- said that she only took on the roles because they ‘scared the c**p' out of her. 'It still amazes me that people actually watching me with a gun didn't just burst out laughing,' Contactmusic quoted her as saying.
'I can't even play ping-pong, but it turns out I'm good with weapons. I've got enormous hands, like a transsexual, and that's probably why,' she added. Beckinsale is set to play a US marshal tracking a killer in Antarctica in the £25million drama Whiteout. Producers had to hire a £1,000-a-day nude stand-in after the 34-year-old refused to bare her derriere in a shower scene. |
