Now January Jones echoes his comments, while praising the skills of her director.

Speaking to the Canadian site Jam!, the actress said,

Poor (director) Matthew Vaughn is going to have to edit it in three days… That’s been a blast. We’ve all had so much fun making that movie… I think it was unrealistic for them to think they were going to make such a huge movie in whatever we had — two months or something. So of course we went over (schedule). I think I have a couple more days to shoot… We’re almost done. The fact we’ve had to push the wrap date but they haven’t moved the release date is really interesting to me. I guess they must know what they’re doing. I have a lot of faith in Matthew as a director and an editor; I think his movies are great. And I think they’ve been cutting as we’ve been going. We should be fine.

And the irony is that, after that first botched image release showing the assembled cast, that first teaser for the film looks simply great. However Matthew Vaughn is approaching this seems to be working. [via The Playlist]
