JUDGE DREDD Karl Urban Watched Stallone's Performance Before Putting On The Helmet

Speaking at London Film and Comic Con 2012, actor Karl Urban candidly revealed that he did watch and study the 1995 Sylvester Stallone Judge Dredd film. Who do think uttered "I am the law" the best?

Said Urban, "I personally actually found [the previous adaption] quite handy to look at that film to see what worked and what didn't work. It really helped me to inform me, as I was approaching the character, about choices I wanted to male and choices I didn't want to make." And as far as his preparation, Urban admitted that acting in a film where his face is 75% covered was a bit of a daunting task. "You know entering into any film is a challenge and this was an extraordinary challenge. First off the bat, knowing that I wasn't going to have the benefit and use of my eyes which is such a valuable asset and tool for an actor. And by the way, that's the way it should be done"
