Actress Tilda Swinton, who is gearing up as the 'Ancient One' in "Doctor Strange'", says learning martial art for the movie was like being at a delicious school.
Swinton learned her stunts from a group of martial artists including Julian Daniels. He taught her hand movements.
"It was like being at a most delicious school. We were learning all these things that we would never otherwise have learned. You want to do something that draws on certain disciplines or certain traditions but at the same time you want to do something that's never been done before," the actress said.

Praising the cast of the Marvel movie, Swinton said, "To be honest, I think we are just lucky to be the next band on the roster and it is a great band to be a part of. They're all great and we're all so psyched to be a part of making this film. That makes such a difference, to feel like a team of lucky people grateful together."
