Worthington, who plays a paraplegic ex-soldier in the film, HAS a word of praise for director James Cameron who has been working on the film since 1994.
He added: “I know Jim’s got some ideas in his big head. You work 18-hour days. I was on it for 14 months. Jim’s (Cameron) still editing.
“We’ll still be filming it up to the day it’s released - probably after the movie comes out, knowing Jim!
