But in this film you have a responsibility to everybody that was touched by the tsunami,” says McGregor, in a new TV spot. “She’s an incredibly strong, courageous woman. She is an inspiration,” adds Watts, regarding her real-life counterpart, Maria, who she plays in the film. You can watch the newest TV spot for “The Impossible” above.
