Bradley Cooper on playing Eddie in Limitless

Can you tell us about Eddie’s enhanced abilities?
Anything he’s ever seen or tasted or smelled since basically in the womb he can recall in an instant and utilize for whatever way he wants and then by the end, this idea that the drug has evolved in such that he’s able to utilize physics in every possible way so that he’s able to read the temperature of where he is when putting his hand on his skin. Somehow he’s able to have a connection with the blood and the flow and whether there’s a blockage and stuff like that. You know, normal shit. [Laughs] And looking at behavior. He could tell that that guy was texting and then he was able to figure out there’s sixty feet and in order to stop the truck and the way the breaks worked that 30 feet wouldn’t be enough, that he’s going to rear end that taxi. So it’s not like he’s omniscient at all. It’s just all logic, but he could do it like that. [Snaps]
