Speaking to the Smart-Less podcast the Obi Wan-Kenobi star, 51, said as a young actor didn't think he could play the character without ever trying the illegal substance. However after meeting real addicts in the Scottish town where the movie was filmed he soon changed his mind and didn't want his actions to be 'disrespectful' to his colleague. Ewan, who returned to the role in the film's 2017 sequel, said: 'At first, early on, I thought, 'How can you play a heroin addict without having taken it? I was young and I thought, f*** it, just do it'. However he went on to say: 'But we didn't. Because, of course, as soon as we started the first thing I remember doing was meeting heroin addicts in Glasgow.' 'But it just really became apparent that that was a really disrespectful idea to the people we were working with.' The movie followed Renton as he stumbled through bad ideas and sobriety attempts with his unreliable friends -- Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller), Begbie (Robert Carlyle), Spud (Ewen Bremner) and Tommy (Kevin McKidd).
