Stewart made his first feature film Rosewater, released in the UK on May 8, based on Bahari鈥檚 story.

Justin asked Stewart about Hillary Clinton's chances in the 2016 presidential elections.

"Politicians have gotten really practiced at running for office and not so great at running other things than campaigns," he said.

"Whether or not she will emerge as someone who we believe or that we think has a clear vision for what she will actually do is absolutely the question," he added.

The UK release date of Rosewater is May 8 2015.
