Production
In late 2012, there were concerns about Campbell-Hughes' drastic weight-loss for the film, however she stated in an interview in the Evening Standard that she wanted "to suffer as much as she - Kampusch - did".[3] She also noted that she has received a torn Achilles tendon, a broken toe, a fractured rib and various cuts and bruises, due to the film set being similar to the dungeon Kampusch was placed in.[4]
