Chris Pine wanted a little advice before he signed on to his upcoming film Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit.
And he got it, from none other than Alec Baldwin.
"I was doing an animated film with [Alec] and I would see him coming in and out of the voice over booth," the actor told Ryan Seacrest at the Golden Globes Sunday. "I stopped him on the way to get a turkey wrap and asked him for his advice."
So, what did the Blue Jasmine actor say?
"He was very kind and very gracious, wished me luck, took me by the shoulders and said, ‘Do it! Take it! Do it!"
And so, he did.
While working on the action flick though, Pine said he didn't exactly take the best safety precautions.
When Seacrest asked him the number one safety rule for his action stunts, Pine said he was riding around on a Ducati going about 50 miles an hour without a helmet—which he said, "I would probably never do again."
Good idea!
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit is set to hit theaters January 17.
