Hayley Atwell bagged her role in 'Christopher Robin' in the middle of the Aegean sea.
The 36-year-old actress - who plays Christopher Robin's wife in the Disney movie - was on holiday on a Greek island when she was asked to Skype director Marc Forster immediately.
She added to Parade magazine: "We broke the ice from that, really. He wanted to make sure that this film didn't feel too sentimental and too simple, but captured the wisdom of Pooh, which is something that's very gentle and very tender. It's about the gentleness of friendships”
And because she was able to break the ice easy enough, she was offered the part there and then.
