Clips From the Show

Dominic: Hello, my name's Dominic Monaghan. I play Bradley in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine." I think I may the reward that Lynn Collins was promising you.

Dominic: Bradley is a young man who is able to manipulate electricity. He's kind of, I would say, one of the more good-hearted characters in the Wolverine film. There are a lot of kind of anti-heroes, good guys who are bad, bad guys who are good.

Bradley seems to be relatively good. He's a nice young man. He has found himself, due to his abilities, having a relationship with Logan and being involved in certain skirmishes. That's not really his gift. I think more than anything else, Bradley would like to be a little bit more retiring in his life.

I'm drawn to these type of films. When I was growing up, I watched "Star Wars, " I watched "Indiana Jones, " I watched "The Dark Crystal, " I watched "Labyrinth, " I watched "The Hobbit" animated film. I watched a film that I really liked called "The Land of Dragons."

You know, fantasy-based, fantastical stories, where an unassuming character has to take on board a huge quest. That's just something I've been drawn to in my life. I like challenges, I like being the underdog. I like those kind of stories.

I've become friends with a guy called Jeff Katz, who was working over at Fox as an exec. I had heard a long time ago about a potential Magneto film, a Magneto origins movie, which I was really interested in coming in and at least getting in a room and speaking with those guys about.

As I spoke with Jeff, he actually told me that the Wolverine origins movie was going to come about earlier than the Magneto film, and kind of left it at that. He and I were online, we were gaming a lot, we were on Facebook a lot, we were friends. And on a Thursday afternoon he called me up and said, "Hey, we're going to send over a copy of Wolverine, we'd love you to read it and give me a call on Friday and let me know what you think."

So I took it home that night, I read it, and I thought the character was something that I could do. I gave him a call about 10:00 AM and said, "Yeah, it looks great. I looks like something I can do. It's a sympathetic character, I'm already seeing what he looks like and what he wears and how he would behave."

And he said, "Cool. Let me speak to Fox, and I'm sure they'll probably get in touch with you relatively soon to let you know what we do next."

I was on a plane that day to Sydney, Australia, 2:00, and flew there. Due the time difference I left on a Friday and got there on a Sunday, worked on a Monday, and worked all that week. I came back and did another week in Vancouver. That was pretty much my journey on X-Men.

I keep my first and last call sheet from each day. Whenever you go on set, you get a call sheet telling you what you're going to do on any given day. And then on the last day you obviously get the same call sheet. So I keep the first and last one and I frame them. Which is cool. "Lord of the Rings, " I think the first call sheet is from August of 1999 and the last call sheet is from July of 2003. So it just really shows the passage of time.

So I keep all my call sheets, and I keep various memorabilia. I've got two or three pairs of Hobbit feet, one of which I gave to my best friend, which is now framed in a box. I gave another to my mum and dad, and then I have a pair for me. I have some Hobbit ears.

I have my Hobbit sword, which I use. I recently moved into a new house, and about the second week I heard a noise upstairs, which ended up being like a raccoon, and I ended up running upstairs with my Hobbit sword. Which I thought was pretty funny because I may have made the "National Enquirer" if I'd sliced someone in two with my Hobbit sword.

So, yeah, various things along the years I keep. I think I have my dog tags from Wolverine, and various things.

What's next for me? I'm kind of working on a relatively secret - well, it's not even relatively secret. I'm working on a secret project right now which I can't really talk about, which will probably come in to public eye around about August.

OK, Current viewers, I'm going to hand you back to the lovely Lynn now.
