Christian Slater slept rough for his latest role

Christian Slater worked hard for the role to gain a perfect portrayal of a crystal methamphetamine addict, he insisted on sleeping rough on the set.

The True Romance star totally immersed himself in the character of Delgado in the thriller, Rites of Passage and gave up nights at home with his family to get into the head of a desperate man.

He tells Wenn: “I slept on the set. I was a crystal meth addict in the movie. I didn't take it to that level of course but I would sleep on location.

“It was one of the more fun characters I've gotten to play because he hallucinates and sees things and ends up talking to this sock monkey that rides around on a shotgun. It was crazy.”

The film is released later this year. The film also stars British actress Kate Maberly who is best known for her role in The Secret Garden.
