Richard Armitage stars in this week's disaster drama Into the Storm as a single father fighting to protect his two sons â€“ one of whom is played by Max Deacon â€“ from a deadly and unprecedented cluster of tornadoes.

When Digital Spy caught up with the pair recently, we took the opportunity to ask Armitage which Hobbit cast members he would want with him in a real-life disaster situation.

Armitage and Deacon also discussed their favourite disaster movies, their most challenging days on set, and what they'd both do in a real crisis.

Into the Storm and the changing face of the disaster movie

"I suspect I'd be going in the opposite direction, but I'll be picking people up on the way," Armitage mused. "It's hard to predict, isn't it? You certainly hope that you have a survival instinct. I don't think I'd be running towards it with an iPhone."

The film is directed by Steven Quale, with a supporting cast that includes The Walking Dead's Sarah Wayne Callies, Matt Walsh and Alycia Debnam Carey.

Into the Storm is released in UK cinemas on August 20.
