“So there was a time in Estonia where I found these paprika flavored Pringles, and you may’t get them anywhere else in the world, so I was like I had to do it, and I stacked them up in my backpack, and I get on the elevator where I was staying and lo and behold, there’s Christopher Nolan, he saw me, he caught me with all these pringles in my bag. It was very embarrassing, and he started laughing at me and gave me a hard time the entire shoot.”
However, even paprika-flavored Pringles couldn’t get the former American footballer out of shape.
“Didn’t affect me, though, I stayed in shape. I was in some of the best shape of my life. I told him, paprika: where are you ever going to see flavored Pringles like this? And he agreed.”
Turns out, despite the uncompromising diet plan set for the lead star, both Christopher Nolan andJohn David Washingtonhad something food-related that they truly agreed on!

Besides the strict diet, there was something else as well thatDenzel Washington‘s son had to put up with while shootingTenet: training to learn the rules of inversion. Sharing his training regime, he said onThe Late Late Show with James Corden:
“There was about a two-month period of training. Two a day, sometimes three a day training,” he said. “Learning the rules of inversion, which our movie deals with, and temporal pincer movements. So what does that mean? Learn how to walk, talk, fight, block, snap necks, roll, jump, backward.”
