That Jacob Tremblay did not get a nomination in this year's Oscars had set off a debate of sorts - the 10-year-old had earned all-round critical applause for his performance in 'Room'.

The child actor is set to return to the silver screen with Naomi Watts-starrer 'Shut In', which releases later this month. The thriller will see Jacob pulling off quite a few stunts in the film with the help of a harness and under the guidance of a stunt director.

Sharing his experience, Jacob, who was just eight while filming Shut In, said the scary moments might not have been captured by camera, and that he really enjoyed it.

"There are a few scenes where I am shown to be climbing the roof and later, I am on top of it. Initially, I thought being on the harness and just going up and down the roof would be embarrassing, but it wasn't," he said.
