Sam Riley talks about 'On the Road' & mentions Kristen

What can we expect from On The Road?

It was such a crazy experience. There were things that were not in the script and you were asked to do on the day, like improvising with Viggo Mortensen[who plays Old Bull Lee], which is quite crazy. He’s a very cerebral man. He turned up with these beautiful old antique books from the time, like Baudelaire, and things that his character would have had. He had a bag of goodies that he brought with him and a hat, a tie and a shoulder holster. I thought, ‘this guy is f**king cool.’ I was quite intimidated. And Steve Buscemi as well. I spent the whole night talking to him, asking him a million questions about The Big Lebowski and Reservoir Dogs. He was so good humoured. He just sat and talked. He was a dream. I don’t know how the film will look because there is so much material that Walter has got. He could make it a number of ways.

Did you spend much time with your On The Road co-star Kristen Stewart?

She is very good. She’s so good that she is not going to be held back by her [Twilight] franchise. To be that good when she’s like 20 years old or whatever is really remarkable.
