— Nicholas Hoult (@NicholasHoult) February 11, 2013

My favourite part was the action-adventure side of it, pretending to slay giants was fun. I like that my character was an everyday boy who

— Nicholas Hoult (@NicholasHoult) February 11, 2013

The character wasn't killing the giants it in a badass way. They were huge and terrifying... and he was trying to protect the princess.
