​​Ewan McGregor REMEMBERED ABOUT BROKEN TEETH

During a conversation at the Star Wars franchise celebration in honor of the 20th anniversary of Attack of the Clones, Ewan McGregor recalled a fight they filmed on set in the rain. He revealed interesting details of the stunt when Nash Edgerton, his doppelganger, performed an incredible aerial maneuver over Temuera Morrison and literally “broke his front teeth.”
At the time, his mother was visiting on set, and he "signaled" a friend to take her aside, "because he didn't want his mother to notice that he had hurt himself." Read the full story below:

“Nash Edgerton was my faithful understudy at Moulin Rouge. However, I didn't have many stunts in that movie.
I can't even remember if they were at all. Despite this, he was my doppelganger ... We were in the same studio with him and we were so far behind schedule in the Moulin Rouge film that we did not notice how Star Wars had come. The schedule was tight. Nash became my stunt double again and did a great job. There's a story
told by him during that iconic fight in the rain, when he had to do a memorable somersault over Temuera Morrison's head. You know, I don't do those things. And he did it. His mother was visiting at the time. I remember she was sitting in the corner of the set. And when they did that somersault, something obviously went wrong.
As a result, he injured himself and broke his front teeth. He looked at his mother and said: “I'm fine! Do not worry". After that, he signaled to the stuntman to take his mother away, because he did not want her to notice that he had really hurt himself. Don't worry, he's really in great shape now. And he has great teeth."
