Bill Murray struggled to eat sardines for his new movie.The 'Lost in Translation' star portrays an overweight mayor in 'City of Ember' and admits he struggled with his on-screen diet.He said: "I'm not really a sardine guy. I do like caviar and I like eggplant. And I can eat copious amounts of caviar and a fair amount of eggplant."This was the most sardines I've eaten in my entire life. And I associate sardines with being these little things, but these weren't. It was a lot of sardine, more than I ever had." The actor also revealed he had problems with voicing an animated character in forthcoming movie 'Fantastic Mr. Fox'.He added: "I'll be playing the badger. I worked really, really hard on a Wisconsin accent, because I thought that would be an appropriate badger voice. And for the first couple of scenes I did this Wisconsin badger voice that I thought was so funny.""I did the first couple scenes and then the director goes, 'Nah, I don't think so. I would think it's kind of a Savile Row badger.' Who here has seen a badger walkin' down Savile Row? Anybody?"But these are these new directors. You know, you just got to give them their you know, let them hang themselves. I've seen some pictures of it. I think it's old-fashioned because it's taking them a very long time to get it done, but they're very excited."
