8 Unusual Demands Made By Guest Stars On American Dad
4. Sir Patrick Stewart Refused To Be A Paedophile
You know Stan’s boss in the CIA who sounds kinda like Star Trek legend Sir Patrick Stewart? Yeah, that’s actually him doing the voiceover. Despite appearing regularly on the show, he’s still considered a guest star and rightfully so. Known for his five-decade acting career, Stewart's a movie superstar and probably one of the most established stars to feature on the show.
Picard is apparently an absolute dream to work with as he’s got a wicked sense of humour and up to do and say almost anything. The ‘almost’ comes in because when reading over the script with Seth MacFarlane, Picard put his foot down when his character was set to make a joke that would imply a level of paedophilia. Every actor has their boundaries and Sir Patrick Stewart’s happens to be distasteful jokes.
This demand was one that definitely needed to be made and thankfully no harm was done because he still features as Avery on the show and still delivers a great performance every time. No one would or should ever dare stand in the way of this noble movie relic.
