Miriam Margolyes has claimed that Arnold Schwarzenegger "deliberately farted" in her face while filming a movie together in the 1990s.
The 81-year-old actress spoke about the incident on the latest episode of the I’ve Got News for You podcast and reflected back on a time when she was working with Schwarzenegger, now 74, on the 1999 apocalypse film, End of Days.
The Harry Potter actress claimed Schwarzenegger "was actually quite rude" during the film’s shoot and dropped the allegation when the host asked her to reveal her least favorite co-star of all time.
"[I] didn’t care for him; he’s a bit too full of himself," Margolyes said about the Terminator star. She then went on to describe the scene, saying: "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."
Here's the moment she was talking about:Going on to admit "I fart, of course, I do", she insisted that she doesn't "fart in people's faces", whereas she claims that Schwarzenegger "did it deliberately, right in [her] face."
The British-Australian actress is no stranger to chat show interviews and never fails to disappoint when it comes to her showbiz stories.
Earlier in July, Margolyes made viewers laugh when she appeared on the British chat show This Morning and shared a hilarious story about actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
Margolyes, who played Juliet’s nurse in Baz Luhrmann's 1996 movie Romeo + Juliet, said that her co-star smelled a bit during their scenes on set.
"He was a bit smelly because it was very hot in Mexico and young boys don’t make themselves fragrant, they don’t wash all the bits!" she said, and then jokingly advised the production team to take better care of their hygiene.
In the same interview, the actress left viewers in hysterics as she apologized for swearing on the daytime show, only to swear again while making her apology.
After catching herself nearly uttering profanity, host Phillip Schofield said: "It's such a shame because we love it when you just let rip," to which Miriam responded: "I know but it upsets some people."
"I've let myself down, sorry,' she said. 'I just want to make people happy! I apologize to everybody for that word," she explained.
