10 Hilarious Actor Pranks (That Went Too Far...)

Now back to Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters and those mutants may need a sit down when it comes to workplace etiquette.

By the time X-Men: Apocalypse came around in 2016, the cast had been together for 5 years. With that much time comes a level of familiarity and chemistry that can’t help but ooze into the film itself. Apocalypse may not have hit the dizzy heights of the series’ previous entry but it’s a solid film and there is good chemistry on show.

Side effects of that cast familiarity come in the testing of limits and an off-screen game - involving the forfeit of a solid punch if you were tricked into looking at another persons ‘circle’ hand gesture - got out of hand.

Jennifer Lawrence is responsible for bringing this chaos to the set from her previous Hunger Games experiences but defended her actions, stating the HG cast were not "trying to permanently, seriously harm someone."

Sadly, the LADS of the X-Men didn’t get that memo.

J-Law witnessed James McAvoy punched so hard that his arm "looked like he had a flesh eating virus" and himself even admitting it was an "insurance risk" after being "dead nailed" by Hugh Jackman, which is where it ended. These games are all well and good if you’re a kid in the classroom but for grown professionals to put their colleague’s income at risk, all because of a game is reckless.
