10 Actors Who Broke Down On The Set Of Famous Movies

8. Harrison Ford Gets A Bit Too Rough; Sean Young Gets Super Upset About It - Blade Runner

Blade Runner
Warner Bros.

There's a somewhat controversial sequence in Ridley Scott's sci-fi masterpiece Blade Runner, whereupon Harrison Ford's detective, Rick Deckard, "forces" replicant Rachel into kissing him, because, uh, she's an android and hasn't felt love before, and, uh... it makes sense in the movie, okay? Anyway, during filming, the scene required Ford to get a little bit rough with the actress in real life, which - at Ridley Scott's request - he did.

But Ford pushed it a little bit too far, in the sense that he LITERALLY pushed Sean Young too far. He pushed her up against a wall so hard that the actress started crying (presumably as Ridley Scott stood in the corner of the room grinning, his eyes glowing red like a replicant's). She broke down, overwhelmed by the experience - and nightmare - that was filming Blade Runner.

Still, to make it up to her, Harrison Ford reportedly flashed his ass. So, there's that.
