9 REAL Acting Moments Created By Deception

9. Hank Azaria Flashed Simon Pegg For Real - Run Fatboy Run

Poor Simon Pegg. As if it wasn’t bad enough to be given the title role in a movie titled Run Fatboy Run, the former Spaced star went on to be doubly humiliated thanks to a wardrobe malfunction onset and co-star Hank Azaria deciding to leave him in the dark.

Playing the love-to-hate-him Gordon, who takes Pegg’s place as a father to his son and lover to his former fiancée, the Simpsons star has a great time as the sleazy, too-good-to-be-true antagonist. However for one of the film’s more memorable scenes, Azaria opted to go au naturale and, befitting the villains he’s accustomed to playing, decided against informing Pegg beforehand.

So that locker-room scene where Pegg stares in shock as a nude Gordon towels off in front of him, displaying his manhood? Yeah, that’s Pegg’s real reaction—when Azaria’s prosthetic cover-up wouldn’t work he tossed it aside and declined to inform his co-star, resulting in Pegg’s very authentic surprise.
