12 Movie Scenes Actors Would Rather Forget

Actors need to leave their comfort zone and expand the boundaries of their own ideas of what is acceptable during the filmmaking process. And yet, while recording they should look as natural as possible, as any signs of discomfort should not be obvious to the audience. So, to fully immerse themselves in the role and be convincing on the small screen, actors have to go through some really weird and unpleasant things. Often, this dedication is rewarded with recognition from the public and critics, but sometimes it is just a reminder of the nightmare for all participants in the film.

We, from awesome.club, we were a little confused about some iconic scenes from television and film that left unpleasant memories for the actors. Check out!

Sharon Stone said that the famous scene from the movie “Basic Instinct” changed her life. The fact is that the actress did not know how the moment would cross her legs until she was on the scene. Stone claimed that director Paul Verhoeven convinced her to remove her underwear to, firstly, emphasize the character’s superiority over men and, secondly, to distract the audience from the next scene. The director assured that no one would see anything. However, after the premiere, the actress was very shocked and did not know where to stick her face in such embarrassment. It is even said that she slapped Verhoeven in the face.

Muscular Jacob from “Twilight” won the hearts of many girls. There were many scenes in the movie where Taylor Lautner had to show off his ripped abs while transforming into a direwolf. These days, the actor doesn’t have fond memories of the fact that he had to be nearly naked in front of the camera. In an interview, he said that if he had to choose, he would prefer never to take his shirt off during filming. Lautner wanted audiences and peers to pay attention to his work as an actor, not his body.

Remember the scene in the movie where Rose approaches Jack and asks him to draw her “like one of his French girls”, that is, without clothes? It turns out that shooting this scene was not so easy for Kate Winslet, as she was worried about her image, and, moreover, embarrassed to be naked in front of her friend Leonardo DiCaprio. This haunts Winslet to this day, as many fans ask the actress to sign photos with exactly this scene, and Kate is extremely uncomfortable. She admitted that she once denied autographs in these photos, because now she is a mother of three and a serious actress.

In 2013, Jim Carrey played a rather atypical role for his resume, the actor played a superhero named Colonel Stars and Stripes in the movie “Kick-Ass 2”. Later, the actor admitted that he was bothered by all the scenes of violence in which he participated. Carrey said that level of brutality was unacceptable, even as a hero in a comedy film.

For the role of the ballerina in the thriller “Black Swan” by Darren Aronofsky, Natalie Portman received a well-deserved Oscar, but one of the scenes still causes unpleasant memories in the actress. The intimate scene with her co-star Mila Kunis. In an interview, Portman said that “it was just crazy because Mila and I are close friends.” The actress even thought about using a stunt double to record the scene, but in the end, she coped with this difficult task herself.

The villain Harley Quinn, from the movie “Suicide Squad”, is one of the most important characters in the film, but Margot Robbie was not very happy in some scenes of the film. First of all, she was very embarrassed when she had to wear short shorts with a ripped T-shirt — the actress was embarrassed for wearing such a provocative outfit. And to this day, she shudders to remember the scene where her character falls into a large vat of chemicals. According to Margot, this was the most terrible moment of her career as an actress: the fluid that was in the tank entered her nose, her ears, her eyes and it was all very uncomfortable. And, after emerging from the liquid, she still had to look passionately at the Joker. It wasn’t very convincing.

In a scene from the Quentin Tarantino film, actress Jennifer Jason Lee plays an old song on the guitar, and then the bounty hunter played by Kurt Russell suddenly takes the instrument away from her and smashes it to pieces. The guitar that Russell broke was a valuable antique instrument worth $40,000, not just any accessory. The actor, of course, did not know about this, and later admitted that he was very ashamed of this scene.

The film “A Dangerous Method” talks about the relationship between psychotherapist Carl Jung and one of his patients. According to the script, in one of the erotic scenes, Keira Knightley’s character was supposed to beat up Michael Fassbender’s character. This moment was one of great tension for the actress. In an interview, she even admitted that she relieved stress with the help of several shots of vodka before filming and a glass of champagne afterward.

It was the film “Juno” that brought world fame to young Ellen Page. However, the actress is not proud of having done one of the scenes in the film. While discussing a potential name for their future child, Page’s character makes a homophobic joke. When her boyfriend suggests naming the child Madison, she responds, “Isn’t that name a little gay?” Later, the actress said that she is very ashamed of having said that and now, after being more mature, she understood all the stupidity of what was said in the scene.

Josh Brolin played Thanos in “Avengers” in a very convincing way, but the actor admits that the Loki murder scene was very unpleasant for him. In the story, the cunning god Loki had already staged his death several times, so Thanos needed to kill him, as they say, once and for all. However, the scene where the villain strangles his opponent seemed too cruel to the actor. Also, Josh felt really sorry for Tom Hiddleston at that point, because the actor had been playing Loki for so long, and now he was “dead” for good.

Both actors in that film admit that filming all the intimate scenes was hell. They were sweaty and completely uncomfortable. Also, some scenes took hours to complete, so the actors had to be trapped and blindfolded for a long time. And worst of all, the public did not appreciate their work and chose them as one of the most chemistry-free couples in the entertainment world.

Who knew that the handsome Chris Hemsworth also doesn’t like to show off his muscular body on stage. Therefore, when he had to take off his shirt for the film “Thor: The Dark World”, he felt very uncomfortable. In an interview, he said he tried to convince the director to remove one of the scenes in which he appears shirtless, but failed. History repeated itself with Hemsworth on the set of the film “Thor: Ragnarok”. According to the actor, he was very happy to be dressed in the first part of the film, but the director said that a slightly racy scene needed to be shot.

“Game of Thrones” was one of the most successful series in recent years. And the spicy scenes were quite frequent in the script. One of the stars of the series, Emilia Clarke, said in an interview that during the filming of the scene in bed between her and actor Jason Momoa, he wore a fluffy pink sock. Jason wanted to break the ice of the scene, because he saw that Clarke was very nervous. According to Emilia, she had a fit of laughter and forgot all her lines and movements. Then, filming was stopped.
