Bradley Cooper’s Burnt role inspired by 3 Celebrity Chefs

Bradley Cooper luckily got help  from 3  Celebrity chef's for his role as a chef in "Burnt" namely Marco Pierre White, Marcus Wareing, Gordon Ramsay . He combined their different characteristics and qualities into his performance.

The 40 year old "American Sniper" superstar who plays the role of Adam Jones in the movie bonds and seeks help tfromthe "F Word" stars Marcus Wareing and Marco Pierre White a British restaurateur to find his role and ended up combining their different styles into one for his food performance.

In reference to his character, ''I created a guy I see as a mixture of the three guys I studied: Marcus Wareing, Gordon Ramsey, and Marco Pierre White. He's a combination. Little things he does, physical things, are basically things I stole from all three of those guys ... It wasn't conscious, but going back and watching the movie I see, 'Oh yeah: That's him ... that's him ... [and] that's him."

''For 'Burnt', I had access to Marco, Marcus, Gordon Ramsay and Clare Smyth. These are all Michelin-star chefs. It's a whole other world.''

Bradley Cooper revisited family background where when he was a teenager he worked as a busboy in a Greek and in Italian restaurant. That experience helped him much in preparing for the role.

He said in Yahoo Movies, ''It was an Italian family, so cooking was a huge part of it. I was a busboy at a Greek restaurant and a prep cook at an Italian restaurant in New Jersey.''

Even when he ws just given a month to prepare for his role, his  work background was the clincher in the fast assimilation of his character.

He said before ''I didn't have as much time to prep, but I was able to spend a month living and breathing it."

''(But) the thing that really paid off was the fact that I'd been doing research since I was a kid, working in restaurants.''
