Connery demanded biggest explosion of his career on film set

Washington, Feb 03: Sir Sean Connery’s insistence on having a massive detonation on the set of his action film ‘The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen’, based on Alan Moore’s comic of the same name, led to inflated bills. The writer alleges that the actor wanted the film to feature the biggest explosion of his career, and even worked them into his contract.

"The film cost 100 million pounds because Sean Connery wanted 17 million pounds of that - and a bigger explosion than the one he`s had in his last film,” Contacmusic quoted Moore as saying. "It`s in his contract that he has to have a bigger explosion with every film he`s in," the writer added. ANI
