After playing his famous TV role as Jax Teller in FX biker drama series “Sons of Anarchy,” Charlie Hunnam is getting comfortable for his new role as King Arthur in Guy Ritchie’s medieval movie “Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur.” Now in Wales for the movie’s production, the British director hired seven A-level drama students from Bangor’s Ysgol Friars as extras as they worked alongside the “Crimson Peak” star.

Signed by North Wales-based Clic Agency, the seven drama students filmed near Capel Curig on Tuesday, April 21, as they played noble people or resistance fighters. Based on Ysgol Friars head of drama Anna Varty, the students worked long days from 8:30 am to 7:30 pm and were paid generously by their efforts.

Varty revealed that working as extras in a big budget film will give the students a “fantastic experience” that they’ll never forget.

“I had to wear a Game of Thrones type costume, it was quiet a thick, heavy woollen dress, a cloak and a shawl,” said 18-year-old drama student Casey Williams who played as one of the resistance fighters, on King Arthur’s side. “Charlie Hunnam who plays King Arthur was just a few feet away from us.”

Another Bangor drama student Daniel Kerry revealed that one of the funniest things he heard was Jude Law’s passionate grunting while doing bench-press up. He admitted that it was a curtained off area but he managed to peep through the tent and found the “Sherlock Holmes” star exercising with another “really big bloke.”

Alice Mayer, 17, from Anglesey said that she played a noble girl in one of the scenes and was only a feet away from Katherine Elizabeth McGrath, the actress who played Morgana in BBC One series “Merlin.” She also saw Law who was busy chatting with the cast and taking selfies, although they weren’t allowed to take their cameras with them.

Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur” cast and crew have been spotted in various parts of Snowdonia with Hollywood stars like Jude Law as the villainous Vortigern and Eric Bana as King Arthur’s father, Uther Pendragon. Ritchie’s highly anticipated movie is set to premiere on July 22, 2016.
