So they\u2019ve known each other for years, but she has a very, very personal vendetta against him \u2013 which you know, maybe that\u2019ll come out in future editions. Hopefully, we\u2019ll see!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of future instalments, Henwick also revealed there\u2019s a chance her character might be more involved in action sequences in subsequent films, although she said that decision ultimately rests with the directors, the Russo brothers.<\/p>\n<p>And she explained that taking on a character without much direct involvement in those action scenes was very much a deliberate choice on her part \u2013 even if she ended up feeling a little jealous of some of the other actors.<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"&quot;THE\" gray=\"\" man=\"\" official=\"\" trailer=\"\" netflix=\"\" width=\"&quot;200&quot;\" height=\"&quot;113&quot;\" src=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BmllggGO4pM?feature=oembed&quot;\" frameborder=\"&quot;0&quot;\" allow=\"&quot;accelerometer;\" autoplay=\"\" clipboard-write=\"\" encrypted-media=\"\" gyroscope=\"\" picture-in-picture=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\/>\n<p>\u201cI had been joking with my agents that I wanted my next film to have me only performing seated or standing,\u201d she said. \u201cI didn\u2019t want to walk, I didn\u2019t want to run, I didn\u2019t want to jump, I didn\u2019t want to fight. I basically said, \u2018I want to do a film where I\u2019m sat down, polishing silverware \u2013 like an old Anthony Hopkins role!\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut saying that, when I watched the film, I was like \u2013\u00a0 \u2018damn, Ana got to play with a missile launcher! Then jump into this moat, and then the flying \u2013 it looks like so much fun.\u2019 And I did kind of feel a bit like, \u2018Oh, it sucks, I didn\u2019t do any of those.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s possible,\u201d she said, when asked if she might be more involved in the action in the likely event of a sequel. \u201cIt\u2019s really up to the Russos. You know, to be in her position at the CIA, she would have had to go through field training, and she would have had to have had experience with fighting\u2026 so it\u2019s definitely in her wheelhouse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether or not she decides to use it or not\u2026 she\u2019s kind of the politician of the film, so she doesn\u2019t really get her hands dirty \u2013 that much is my feeling. But I don\u2019t know \u2013 the Russos have already figured out what they want for the next film, so it might be in there!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Gray Man is currently showing in select UK cinemas and is available to stream globally on Netflix from 22nd July 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul><li><strong><a title=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/gb\/&quot;\" href=\"\/\/www.netflix.com\/gb\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Sign up for Netflix from \u00a36.99 a month<\/a>.
