"Better Call Saul" star Bob Odenkirk has shared that he enjoyed filming the fight sequences in his upcoming film, "Nobody", as it allowed him to release pent-up emotions.

"I never really got training in acting, so all I can ever do is draw from the feelings and experiences that I've had. This Mike Nichols book (Mike Nichols: A Life) is so great because they talked about Mike's way of directing and how he got people to know what he wanted. If a first date didn't go well, he'd get people to know the feeling he wanted through a memory. You can imagine a shared memory that people have of awkwardness, sadness or whatever it is," Odenkirk told The Hollywood Reporter.

"So I think that's how all actors work, but maybe there are some who don't. That's how I work, and I channelled all those feelings into it. It was absolutely cathartic, too. Getting to fake beat the hell out of those guys on the bus left me feeling a little bit lighter," he added.

The 68-year-old also shared that he loved training for his fight scenes.

"I'll tell you what, though, I liked the training. I don't like going to the gym, but this is training for a reason. You're using your mind and your body. You have to think as you're learning this choreography. So you're always learning, and it's a lot more fun to work out if you're learning stuff," he said.
