Acting on a blue screen is awful.

On 'Game of Thrones,' we always shoot away from the green screen because it's bloody expensive to shoot green screen.

'Mars Needs Moms' was motion capture, where you walk into a space that's essentially a black box with cameras everywhere. It was so technical.

It was close to like a 67- or 70-day shoot for 'Tron' on stage, in the suit.
