"It's been pretty exciting seeing an audience respond; to have that experience is really wonderful. I'll make a bunch of those. I'll make as many as people want to see because they're very challenging, and so much fun to make," he said.

The actor further mentioned that he "still felt good" about doing action roles, despite turning 50 last year.
