not in data. and i folks next up on dennis miller plus one with got a british boy and action heroes. scott add kits and he's got a new flick out called one shot. he's been in a lot action films and i think as a part in upcoming john wick for love that series and but he's fronting this one. it's called one shot. scott atkins will talk to us about, well, how he grows to be an action star and the town of birmingham england, and where it goes from here right after that san dennisville are plus one. hey folks. welcome to dennis miller plus one. and we're happy to welcome actor and martial arts expert scott adkins to the show he's appeared in blockbuster film like

the 0 dark, 30 american assassin, dr. strange, and the currently stars in one shop, alongside ryan felipe b and ashley green. and it's now playing in theaters and video on demand. mr. atkins, how are you? my friend? very well 10. i said we're good. good. it's nice to be the 3rd guy out of the copper and 0 dark 30. then it's another thing to front the film. i have a feeling in one shot your fronting the film. tell me about the film and tell me about being the guy who they're hanging, the tensile off of. somebody's going to be the, the maple and it's like it's you and this. well? yes. well, i don't know how to do it as the title suggests, it's an action film that takes place in one continuous unbroken sake. and we had a choice scratch and you have very proud of how the film sign down. i've always felt like the one take really pulls the audience in because there's no edits.

there's nowhere to run the content away from the screen. started captivated stream . we are very tight, so it's script that's very exciting for the audience. i had sounds very successful, proud of it, scott, i am blown away by that. i did not know that that was the technique and this i'm fascinated by chris nolan. when he did moment when momento went backwards, and then there's the great old hitchcock film where he did 20 minute takes and then would push into a black coated a dinner party for rope. but i have never heard this from us and absolutely fascinated by tell me what would be the longest one clip that you would do? how did you do the edits when hitchcock would push it to the black? or how did you guys do the the tape change or whatever it is now? i guess it's digital. yeah. yeah. of course it isn't really one unbroken sake for 90 minutes because it's an action film. there are films the are legitimately one site for the whole thing. you can do with an action film,

make it anywhere near exciting. in my opinion. we've got guns, we got explosions, you've got $0.05, no fights, you know, it's maybe somebody one day. bob, don't think that be that exciting is hard to do so. but what we're trying to do was make the length of the takes as long as we legitimately felt we could and still keep it exciting and of course safe. so it definitely feels like a legitimate one and it is in many ways. tell me about the story that now we've got the technique used, which i find fascinating and in to kids, especially with short attention span theater. they're so used to from dire straits on these quick cut mtv videos. it'll be interesting to see that immerse themselves in something a little more protracted like this. but give me the story. what's the story about who do you play and an overview my friend i play going for jake harris, who's the leader of the seal. same. and we start the movie off, we're coming in and in a halo. and we garcia, cia analysts played by ashley green. and we're coming into this guantanamo by type

of facility off the coast of poland. we've got to extract a guy that's wanted to you may have been information about on an impending nuclear threat. we gotta get this going to pull him out of that. when we land on this island, there's these terrorists slash mercenaries the turn up stage, place all hell breaks loose last twist, some times and a hell of a lot of action. i love that i did reminds me of something like the rock meets where eagles dare, which i watched over the weekend. the great where eagles dare say that sort of thing. where you've got to go in and get the guy, get the guy out of the malware, clint eastwood. richard burton stunning in that film. by the way. folks, if you haven't seen that great soundtrack, you always need that. the repetitive music, you know, action films, obviously when i go to see an action film, i kind of like

a little character development, but i have to insist i go to see character development for development. i walk by action films, the kicker out to be run, run, show, tell me, but did you keep the quotient up in this one? well, the film says place in real time. so you're in this situation and you know what the mission is for these guys. and you know, the seal guys, whatever you don't, you don't need to know the back story. what you need to know is what the objective is and what they're trying to do. you can actually put yourself into that shoes and sit right. well, that's where they go. to do and this is happening, how are they going to get out of this situation? and it is really good scripts actually, and there is a lot of character development within it. but essentially, you just on this mission and you with these guys and you're into it. yeah it's. it's like the wick films now people always wonder why the way i go to see a wicked film. first piano seems like a good cat,

real life. so i admired him and secondly, i want the action to speak grand y'all, and they deliver that. and i know there's a bit of a, baxter viejo and the other cat in the private club and all that. but the set pieces are absolutely beautiful, you know, as i was watching, were talking to scott atkins by the way. and the film is one shot star stars alongside ryan sleeping, and ashley green. it's now playing in theaters and video on demand. as i watch the you up see over the weekend and saw 42 year old man. do something so brave and win against the 38 year old man. and you could see what a great triumph it was for him. i know you have a background and mixed martial arts and i was wondering films to me. i know when you get on the set, it can be exciting, but the actual movie world of hollywood seems so nebulous to me and so weird and so much. but, but, you know, going on, did you find it hard to pull out of

a really well to me, a nuts and bolts, ethical approach to things in mixed martial arts in co, into the nebulous world of hollywood. how was it for you? that's why i still live in birmingham england real about there and have my old friends tell me about a hollywood full. i mean, yeah, that's amazing. glovers. to show that he's able to pull that off at his age, inspiring. so all of us myself included, some, still trying to pull a few things off at 45 in these action sounds. but yeah, look, i mean probably the bright, the thing for him today is all those guys is to figure out when to retire because that's the real decision. those guys just want to keep on fighting till they're drunk. i'm sure. wow, 42. god bless. i'm finally reached the pig, you watch, cowboy, you know, he was well into his life. might be time for him to hang it up. looks like he's taken some shots. he shouldn't, but i tell you as i watch the car the other night i was thinking,

what are they put in? well, i don't even know where daggers stand is. what are they putting in the water over a dagger stand that is the bad wrestling shortly. yeah, those go down the module accidentally hit, not a guy's old lady in the tavern and diag instead. i want to think about it. every guy over there looks like a b, they've all got that beard. they're all serious stone killers. you don't want to grapple with them, but you don't want to stay on your feet. there is no safe zone with those guys. is there? she got incredible. incredible. fine. just yeah. must be the altitude or something . i don't know. when did you 1st get the bite? you're over? birmingham i grew up in pittsburgh, pittsburgh, pennsylvania, and birmingham. england are sort of the same thing. and i think you live in a little community or a little city under itself inside birmingham. it seems or something like that. tell me about growing i was on the street oil town and the royal town of sun com film on

from what was that like beverly hills, 9. 02. what oh, what was happening in. 2 rock hill, its launch is the punch card birmingham because you know, this is the birmingham accent and everyone sounds a little bit in, puts in something called filled. we pronounced the 2. so we're little bit smarter. whether it's home and obviously i had some big dreams myself which might come from the family bushes and my dad's it was trying to get me to learn a trade and they will have this and try and protect me. but you know, i had the bug when i was a kid, and i started marshlands when i was 10 years old because my dad and my older brother did a judah, and then they stopped and i continued to, it's just a way of life. i've never stopped training just who i am. you know it's funny when you watch like rod laver is left arm was overly developed because he would hit with it all the time. and you watch some guys who strike with the right arm and you think you perceive maybe they're right or a little bigger. there's no bigger arm,

the butcher's coming and clear from the thing and half this must have been a good training ground for you to watch your own work. cars like that. yes, it's tough job. my dad's graft and my mom gave me a very strong work ethic and you know, being a martial arts, action star when you're 12 seems like a good idea at the time. but it turns out that it's hard work as well. so they set me up for a good bit of grafting. we're talking to scott atkins and he was also in one of my favorites. and i don't know the director, i know she did point break originally. 0 dark 30. you know, when you were talking about going in with a helicopter scott, in the new film, one shot, it reminds me of the 0 dark 30 thing. and although i follow that story to some extent, i never know what happened in about about as far as the one shopper. i assume you being in the film had to be informed to some degree. why did the one go down there in real in real life? do you know, while i wasn't in the sequence,

i didn't play one of the sales team and one of the guys that the, the base the, i don't know there was just some sort of i went down maybe it was because they were too close to the wall and some that made it not, but it certainly went down a bit of a shock, but they still got the job done. well, i tell you what, i don't agree with a lot of things. a lot of presidents do, but i got admire obama. his balls were huge to go across the country line like that when you got a bad guy. and it's somewhat anecdotal evidence, but pretty good evidence. but the go in there at night and off that pig, certainly the high water moment for brock obama. good on him and good on the troops were talking to scott atkins. and when we come back, we'll talk more about the new film one shot. he's also in the marvel universe to some degree dr. strange, i want to ask about that. well oiled machine. one shot also has ryan philippe and ashley green. now playing in theaters and video on demand back with scott atkins

right after this. on dennis miller plus one ah ah, one of the many paradoxes of big coin is that it wants everyone to attack it. that's what makes it strong. that's it. makes security go higher. that's what makes the price go higher. and now we've got some new delinquency on the same attacking bitcoin

you were told it was bad for your eyes and your posture that it would stop you from having real friends and finding a girlfriend. but what they fail to mention is that you could make thousands of dollars every weekend by simply playing video game. a couple of them for the go. we formed the fortune with georgia resume because much personnel can multiple to do so he's no sooner cause to make video games a high paying job. you have to be gifted and quick witted. i'm going to open up with an installation and business to live new bottom and miss thompson with webpage, but we're from young booth but even started yet, glove voice. when you most told me i was do it. i don't you me know neil's feel, are you guy of the owner, but that vehicle it will still be se odd to do. i also use

a folks. welcome back to dennis miller plus one. we're talking to our friends, scott atkins over in malta, at the multi 4 seasons as you can see here appear to many blockbuster films, 0 dark, 30 american assassin, dr. strange in the marble universe, currently starring along ryan philippe. and i always say, philippe, but i think it might be sleepy. what is it? do you know? i think it's fully fine, but some people are on the set with say, knows fully they. yeah, i gotta so come, i gotta get too far out of my way to say felipe piece. i'll just say rough ryan, so i could get away with that. yeah, there you go. and ashley green now playing in theaters and video on demand, you know, as i'm sort of fascinate. i'm like the least physical guy into universe. i just lay claims that out. if i can, i can break 100 in golf. i'm good. but whenever i watch martial artist guys and you guys i find it must be so mentally healthy. like, for instance, when i watch the great bruce lee, the diminutive character,

but at some point it must be i can't imagine how good it feels to know at some point you never want to use it. but if you do have to defend yourself, you've got it in there and i'm wondering after you learned that scott is a young man. did it bring some peace of mind to you? or what does it do when you learn that you can take care of yourself? i think people that train and martial arts and they go in the gym and in a controlled environment, you get to test yourself against another man and you know, you get out of your system so that when you go out on a friday, you know, they have to drink, you're less likely to look for trouble now, and also your various, your sensors because you know that if something does happen, you feel comfortable in yourself. so you're a lot more measured than some other line. lance that would be out that looking for trouble because that was chip on the shoulder some to prove. we haven't gotten a sense of prove we prove in the gym and i think that's why martial arts is a great thing to people to do. you know,

i used to watch when i lived in new york as on saturday night live, and i would brush up against tyson periodically in public situations. and there was a whole leg by the fast this gun in town around him. but i could sense it's tyson knew it, the fans, half the people who would think maybe i want a piece of that and there wasn't, many of them would float like that. like the he always had the best lie to be, when i know everybody has a plan, so they get hit in the face. and indeed, i think a lot of these young there have never actually just caught on and thought, wo i don't want to be in the game. what's it like the 1st time you actually just pull lex in the face gaudy? well i, i get some, you gotta get you saying you gotta be able to stay in the pocket and slip those punches, and some of them are going to get through. but you're going to be able to try not blank if you can. i know you start out and i believe it, young age and practice. ty quando. when i watch, do you see now?

and i watch it religiously. i'm fascinated by the dedication. i'm fascinated by the hard knock story of many of these kids. and these young women who only have this way to express themselves in a large degree, but some people are put off when it turns to grappling ground and pound as they say, where you go down onto the mat. i'm ashley, i'm fascinated by that aspect of it. too, i don't know enough about ty, quando, is it striking or is it matt work or is that a combination thereof? any, a little tutorial thing. and striking in the olympics, they just use the legs, but then he have the other side of it, which is hands on faith. so it's like karate, but ty condo guys, and known more for the jumping kicks. apparently they were trying to kick people of forces, and that was the father reason for the flying kicks. melissa crossing, that's interest. they do have a favorite now where, where you, what do you find? you can lean on the most in the films in the new film as one shot available. and then there's video on demand. where do you find the comes the flying kicks work

best in the movies. i guess they have a great player. busy to them, right. so i want those still dear to my heart. you know, that's what i did through most of my teenagers and the style. i can't get rid of that style it's, it's with me and i always fall back on to it. but obviously trained in many, many other things, but those cakes you don't get better kicks than than ticonda. the best cakes of books. there's, there's a bumper sticker, i get my kicks kicks. scott atkins with us the corey. i graphy so important scott: i would imagine the on air shooting time is almost dwarfed by the prep work. you've got to get this right or somebody's catching a template or a he'll kick in there temp or the soft eggshell ball and you've got to get these down. tell me about how much prep goes into it. a lot of trench, i mean i'm pressing a movie at the moment and all today i've been arranging 5 sequences and since i'm

to feel like i'm losing brains, jobs can spend that many hours in the day just in this sentence. get punched. it's like, man, i've got, i've got a headache at the moment, but yes, you, you really, you drilling it really, you with the guy that you're fighting on screen. i mean, it may look like you're trying to rip his head. in reality, you're walking as if you're dancing together and partnership. it's a violent dance, but we're working together to show that aggressiveness bookkeeping each other safe . and you know, if i trust the guy on with, i can get much closer to him and i can let his fist come much closer to me because we have the timing down. it's about being, you know, staying with inches of the movements to make it really exciting. so you really have to trust the guy you're doing. i was talking to scott atkins, new film, one shot. i know you did some work in china. sometimes you read these returns on grosses, and when you, i think it's, i p man grosses more than star wars over there. it's an amazingly huge thing. i

think sometimes in these asian cultures where everything's sorta lock down and that they find great catharsis sort of tell me why the chinese love the, the, i believe the big was sha studios under run, run shots always been popular over there. how do, why do gauges that it's so popular over there, scott, maybe even more than the western world. things certainly back in the day. it's different now because they're kind of course of the technology. there's a lot of good c joined that they do in the movies now, but back in the day they couldn't compete with while hollywood was doing, with all the special effects and the car chases and all that. so they concentrated up on what they could do, which was kung fu, and those were the action films and the why, what do they advance? it's very cheap things to do, but they became masters asset and they suddenly made martial arts config movies better than anywhere else. in the world,

and it wasn't really the matrix where hollywood sort of adopted that style and did it the way they've always done it. and now i think america sort of caught up with the skills involved in doing these martial arts movies. but the same time china's caught up with the c j and the special effects and all the rest of it. but certainly that's why they, for some time and offense become family. this. i assume that kiana is well liked and the mar shorts community. he seems to pay, i have no delusions, that he's going to step in there with a chuckle, a dell or a hold a zone. but he seems like a good hail fellow. well man, i think he takes care of his crew and he certainly pays dedication enough to make it look absolutely great. i see of a part and chapter 4 wick, i'm not even sure. kiana knew that was going to be, afford, seems like you did the 1st one to help us friends. and now it's the biggest franchise in the world to some degree. tell me about piano if you cross this path scenes with him and 4 or tell me about it. absolutely,

we do. and i can happy to report that the room is true. he is one of the nicest people here, is just a great guy. just a lovely soul, so generous, so great to be around. so hard walking. i mean, he look at john wayne movies and it's obvious that he's doing so much for himself. it's because he puts the walk and he never complains and shops the house get, the director says keanna, this is what we're going to do and he gets there and he does it. and it's not easy . and it's amazing to watch an ice thing. postulated the job with movies, as you're saying when it comes to an action film at this point in time, there is nothing better than a john film. so i'm very happy to be involved. and a brilliant director note for him to go to the habit dasher and habit, be the armor too. i always love that scene where it goes in to get kids out there. they're dealing with a half inch coff. my man opens the other rack and there's a day or 5th. it's the blending of those 2 is absolutely what is

actually katie when we're where he out and fours for finish filming when. when can we expect that? is it out soon? john? way for i believe, comes down in may now you're obviously you're going to be fronting these firms out. so, huge dedication. i look at cats like mom, our and guys like that. and, you know, sly when he did it and you know, arnold, there's, you can live a life. obviously, i'm not saying it's for the in the exclusion of any sort of regular, but certainly it's a complete immersion. where do you feel healthwise at this age? are you bought that are it now that you're going to be running these films and do you desire it or are you going into it thinking, well, this is going to be a still strange trip. where is your head out right now? be in the, the main guy. well, i love it. anything i wanna do with my life. i feel very fortunate to be in this

position that i get to earn a living doing while i do it for free, really. some agents either. but, you know, i'm getting ready to shoot a very tough faction film at the moment. actually the meant to is full of fight sequences. and i'm, you know, i can't say that i'm happy about it. there's a lot of trepidation and anxiety because i know that i've got to go from the south through the ringer. i don't take it for granted. you know, i'm going to give it my all, and i appreciate that. that's what's gonna keep me in this position. so i'll give him the best shot. you know what i i think that there are certain things that should be held off thought until we find out exactly what happened. that's the reason i'm not querying you about this baldwin thing. i don't think all the the facts are in now. it seems like a like when you read about the titanic getting the iceberg. 10 things had to go wrong to put it there, decrease it side at that moment. and i'm sure when they peeled us back and reverse engineer, and we will say though, that whenever i've been on film sets and i know it's not perfect,

i'm not trying to get anybody off the hook, but they do pay a lot of attention to it. and if it's, if it is slipped here, i feel horrific about that. but i don't want anybody i've only been in 6 film. scott obviously does this for a living, the level of professionalism, amongst most of these people as exquisite as a scott, the people who they have to deal with as far as the keeping people safe? it's pretty amazing failsafe system. yeah, no, i think when we heard the news of this, everyone in my business is just kind of ask themselves how is that even possible? how is this even occurred or happened? because yeah, the you have certain rules and you know, we don't know what happened, but it is strange and very surprising. now what we say a prayer for the poor woman's soul and we'll find out what happens soon enough. in the interim we can all be just i, i don't think we deal well was being baffled anymore. but the same thing. like i

said, i've only done a few films, whatever they had and we a fake gun. they opened it showed me the whole deal, and i often think geez, how did it, how did he come to this? we will find dad in the interim. ah, we will be looking for scott atkins, one shot long side, ryan her and ashley gray now playing in theaters and video and a mad brother. you have a headache and yet you are so charming. bear with your time. we appreciate it. my friend. all thanks very much, dennis. thanks for having me. appreciate it. all right, scott atkins, dennis miller plus one ah, the worn drugs started as a way to combat a grave problem. what's the wardrobes? it's part of the attitude of the nation, not just of north dakota, and it got to be something that you could get elected. this time the fight against
