I was going for a solid minute with just screaming and punching, like a proper cat fight.
She expressed that neither of the women wanted to fight each other, but they just shut their eyes and “went crazy” at each other.
Maisie told The Sun: “They went: ‘Go,’ and I wasn’t expecting her to just go crazy. But she literally just went: ‘Agh,’ and just screamed. I think she shut her eyes, screamed and just went crazy.”
The actress added: “I thought, okay, I need to step up my game. I was going for a solid minute with just screaming and punching, like a proper cat fight.”
After the fight, she was nicknamed Tiny Temper by the Directing Staff.
