While speaking with ET, the actor shared that she had some difficulty with the stunts and her bump, noting they “had to start shooting around it.”
“So the strike happened [and] when she came back and we had to finish the movie, it was really [about] trying to figure out how to shoot around [the bump],” he said.
Will called Vanessa a hard worker who “wants to get it done.”
“I was like, ‘No, don’t worry. You’ll always be able to tell your child that they were in this scene with you,’” he added.
