Lerman: Russell scarier than Ray

Douglas Booth and Logan Lerman have revealed they bonded like real brothers while filming Noah.

The 21-year-old Romeo And Juliet heartthrob and the 22-year-old Percy Jackson star play Noah's sons in Darren Aronofsky's biblical epic.

Douglas revealed: "We get on really well and we hung out a lot, so it was pretty easy to create that sort of brotherly experience in the film, although we weren't as close on screen.

"We went hiking in Iceland, just the two of us, up Mount Esja near Reykjavik. We went to a Jay Z concert in New York, plenty of dinners and nights out.

"We went to the Blue Lagoon (in Iceland) which we didn't like.

Logan added: "Did not like it. Tourist trap."

The young actors admitted working on the film - which has attracted controversy among religious audiences - was pretty intense.

Logan revealed: "Between takes there wasn't a ton of laughs but between working days we had a ton of fun."

And they also revealed Russell Crowe, who plays hero Noah, was scarier in real life than Ray Winstone, who plays the villain Tubal-Cain.

Logan said: "Russell is definitely more scary. Ray is not a very scary guy, he seems scary, he looks scary, but he's the nicest dude."

Douglas added: "He can be scary but he's one of the nicest men you'll ever meet in your life."

'Noah' trailer debuts: Russell Crowe, Emma Watson ready for the flood

Darren Aronofsky is hoping to gather two of every theater-goer with his new movie "Noah."

The first official trailer for the "Black Swan" director's biblical epic debuted on Thursday. The film stars Russell Crowe as the titular hero, as well as Emma Watson and Jennifer Connelly.

Anthony Hopkins also appears in the flick as the wizened Methuselah.

The trailer shows off the production's extensive special effects, including a rain of comets upon the earth and, of course, an ark.

The clip begins with Noah's apocalyptic premonition. "He's going to destroy the world," Noah announces fretfully, before beginning his ambitious shipbuilding project.

The official release date of the movie has yet to be announced.

New 'Noah' Promo Images Featuring Emma Watson, Logan Lerman and More

New images featuring several main cast of "Noah", due out on March 28, 2014, have surfaced online. The photos from RealWallFlower give a look at Emma Watson, Logan Lerman, Jennifer Connelly, Anthony Hopkins, Ray Winstone and Russell Crowe, all in outfits seemingly made of rough fabrics.







The biblical pic from director Darren Aronofsky is headlined by "Man of Steel" star Crowe, and centers on the titular character who's given a divine mission to build an ark to save creation from the coming flood. Aronofsky additionally serves as co-writer alongside John Logan for the Paramount Pictures project.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Crowe says that the bible character is not like what people like to believe. "The funny thing with people, they consider Noah to be a benevolent figure because he looked after the animals: 'Awww, Noah. Noah and the animals.' It's like, are you kidding me?" he says. "This is the dude that stood by and watched the entire population of the planet perish."

"He's not benevolent. He's not even nice. At one point in the story his son says, 'I thought you were chosen because you were good?' And he goes, 'I was chosen because I can get the job done, mate.' "

Marton Csokas is also included in the ensemble of "Noah" for a supporting role.
