Miriam Margolyes never held back in interviews, and her take on working with Arnold Schwarzenegger was no exception. The Harry Potter actor once revealed a particularly foul experience with the action star while filming End of Days in 1999. According to her, Schwarzenegger intentionally passed gas in her face during a break between takes – an act she neither forgot nor forgave.
“He’s a bit too full of himself, and I don’t care for him at all,” Margolyes said on the I’ve Got News For You podcast. “He’s a Republican, which I don’t like. He was actually quite rude. He farted in my face. Now, I fart, of course, I do—but I don’t fart in people’s faces. He did it deliberately, right in my face.”
The scene in question had Margolyes playing Satan’s sister while Schwarzenegger’s character was in the middle of taking her down. “I was playing Satan’s sister, and he was killing me, so he had me in a position where I couldn’t escape and lying on the floor. And he just farted,” she recalled during the podcast. “It wasn’t on film; it was in one of the pauses, but I haven’t forgiven him for it.”
