Ray Winstone snapped up his part in the latest 'Indiana Jones' film without even seeing the script.The 51-year-old British actor says he didn't even have to think before accepting the role in 'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull', set to become the summer's biggest blockbuster.Winstone said he quite liked the mystery of taking a role he didn't know much about, telling Jonathan Ross: "It's weird because you don't get to see the script. In a way I quite like not knowing too much." Winstone, who plays Indiana Jones' sidekick George 'Mac' McHale in the film, says he admires the attitude displayed by 65-year-old Harrison Ford in the film's lead role: "He's unbelievable, as fit as a butcher's dog. He's down to earth... he'd do as many [stunts] as he could, he obviously got himself in shape for the film."Former boxer Winstone revealed he's not so keen on the gym himself, saying: "Even the thought of going to a gym now makes me feel ill. I trained really hard as a kid and you do burn yourself out."'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull' opens in cinemas across the world this weekend.
