Ninja Assassin director James McTeigue dotes on Rain

It seems that the Ninja Assasin director, James McTeigue (who was very involved in "The Matrix" series and directed "V for Vendetta") has some very fond feelings to up-and-coming Hollywood star Rain! He talked of Rain's 'incredible' athletic skills and contrary to belief that he's a snob, his 'incredible personality.' "Rain is an incredible athlete... an incredible personality too. You just have to spend a little time around him to know what dedication he has and what kind of star charisma he has, which is why he's so popular there." He also went on to talk about Rain's fast-learning ability of all the fighting choreography. "We trained a lot of the actors for 'The Matrix', but Rain, through his dance ability, he trained harder than anyone I've ever seen. He also got the choreography down incredibly well, more so that you could just show it to him two or three times and then he'd do it perfect, pretty much. He was incredible to watch." More than you know Jimmy, more than you know... especially when he turns around.
