I like gaming now, I have an Xbox, I actually quite enjoy it and I can see how people get into it. So for research purposes, did you go and play it? So it was the story, the characters and the action coming together. The characters are battling a lot of things throughout the story. For me, the main element was – number one – I wanted to get into the action genre, and also the fact that it wasn’t just an action film, it’s very character driven. When I auditioned I didn’t really know what Halo was either and I wasn’t really a gamer at all. I never played Halo, but know it’s big in the world of gaming – are you a gamer Christina? Anywhere in London… My favourite spot is Canada Water, it’s really nice and relaxing by the water. I do a lot of parkour, free running really, dance still, the gym… The free running is mainly at council estates, which are brilliant as you have different levels of walls and railings and things, perfect for parkour. It probably comes from my dance background, always dancing as a kid, I love being physical.
I’ve heard you are into your fitness in real life…
