PIERCE BROSNAN - BROSNAN FACED THE BIG FREEZE FOR NUDE SCENE

PIERCE BROSNAN risked hypothermia on the set of new period drama SERAPHIM FALLS when he stripped naked in icy temperatures. The Irish star had to bare all in the snows of Los Alamos in New Mexico on a frosty morning, and couldn't get warm all day. Writer/director DAVID VON ANCKEN says, "The location was about 11,000 feet up and when we got to the set at five o'clock in the morning it was 30 below zero Fahrenheit. "The upholstery on your car is cracking when you touch it; that's not an exaggeration. Even when the sun comes up it's still 10 below zero. "It was 9.8 degrees and Pierce has to be buck naked in the snow. Even our warmers couldn't keep him warm. We had to turn his character's bear coat inside out so the fur was facing him. That was the only thing that could keep him warm; forget the heaters and the hot water bottles. "Pierce was a great sport. It was absolutely freezing."
