Sean Connery and Lorraine Bracco knew going in, that this project had, well, wires attached.

“We have a number of scenes that are staged in trees 70 to 125 feet in the air,” says director John McTiernan from the set of “The Last Days of Eden” in Veracruz, Mexico. “And you have to do it with the actors.”

The Disney Christmas release involves Bracco’s travels deep into a majestic rain forest to assist “medicine man” Connery as he endeavors to locate a rare plant with powers to cure.

“At first there was a certain . . . not trepidation, but caution, and we started with this ‘tree school’ while we were shooting other things,” offers McTiernan (“Die Hard,” “The Hunt for Red October”).

Connery is taking his lofty harness-and-hardware acrobatics with typical 007 nonchalance.

“Sean at this point is sort of blase about it,” says McTiernan. “He’s not worried that he’s going to fall and it’s just work.”

Bracco’s another story.

“Lorraine loves it,” laughs the director. “She goes off and wants to be a circus performer. Sean’ll come down and she’ll just hang around up there and suddenly practice somersaults and things in her harness. She scares the bejeezus out of the safety men.”
