Undressing a crew and stocking up thongs: 5 strange demands of famous actors on set

Sometimes actors surprise the crew with their unique character traits and actions. Ridiculous demands and refusals to perform certain scenes: these cases often lead to funny stories. SSPDaily offers to read 5 such strange and interesting situations.

Ben Affleck

During the filming of the movie Gone Girl, actor Ben Affleck had a peculiar dispute with director David Fincher. He was a devoted fan of the Boston Red Sox, so he refused to wear a Yankees cap for one of the scenes, fearing the consequences and endless ridicule from fans. This unexpected disagreement led to a four-day shooting halt. In the end, Ben wore a cap with the words "Mets" on it.

Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise performs many stunts on his own, so he has developed a unique formula for comfortable exercise during intense filming. His secret? G-thongs or thongs made of elastic, soft materials. Therefore, Cruise always asks the wardrobe departments to have up to 50 pairs of thongs in stock in advance.

Lindsay Lohan

During the filming of The Canyons, Lindsay Lohan asked the entire crew to undress to their underwear to make it more comfortable for her to play a topless scene. Despite the outrage, the crew agreed, so the work went smoothly.

Paris Hilton

When Paris Hilton was supposed to make a cameo appearance in the movie Lonely Hearts, rumors spread about her extravagant demands. Allegedly, her team presented the crew with a three-page list of demands, including fresh, live lobsters on demand and a bottle of Grey Goose vodka. Although a spokesperson for the Hilton denied the allegations, the story continues to be a subject of debate.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Arnold Schwarzenegger, before filming the third chapter of the Terminator franchise, signed an attractive contract that included a remarkable pay-or-play fee of $29.25 million. It guaranteed that the actor would get paid even if the movie was never made.
