Miriam Margolyes, a former co-star of Hollywood actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, has admitted she still holds him accountable for farting in her face.
During a recent interview on Australia’s I’ve Got News For You podcast, the 81-year-old actress was asked to name one A-list celebrity she “didn’t love working with” throughout her nearly 60-year career. She responded by bringing up her “End of Days” co-star.
“I didn’t like the wrestler from Austria … what’s his name?” she began, as the hosts filled in the Arnold-sized blank.
“Yeah, didn’t care for him. He’s a bit too full of himself and I don’t care for him at all. He’s a Republican, which I don’t like and 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,” she continued, claiming it happened while they were filming the 1999 action-horror movie.
“I can’t remember the date, but it was during the filming of End of Days in Los Angeles and I was playing Satan’s sister and he was killing me, so he had me in a position where I couldn’t escape, lying on the floor,” Margolyes continued. “And he just farted. It wasn’t on film, it was in one of the pauses, but I haven’t forgiven him for it.”
Arnold starred in the movie as a police detective who’s thrown into the world of Satanists after being tasked with protecting a woman (Robin Tunney) from being impregnated by the devil and giving birth to the Antichrist. Gabriel Byrne played Satan in the flick.
