22 Jump Street star Jonah Hill didn't entirely enjoy his Wolf of Wall Street movie making experience, though he did love working with Martin Scorsese. In recent weeks, Hill has admitted that during the shoot he was physically beaten in one scene, while a gold fish pooped in his mouth in another. And believe it or not, even the airplane orgy scene was horrible. Not only was he not in love with his faux falecio, Hill had to contend with a stranger's gentleman vegetables being perilously close to his person.
Not only did Jonah Hill not win an Oscar for his Wolf of Wall Street efforts, he was repeatedly punched in the face, had a stunt fish relieve itself in his mouth and he was traumatically exposed for long periods of time to another man's testicles.
During the scene in Wolf where Jonah Hill as Donnie Azoff gets punched in the face, Hill revealed in an interview with ABC that Martin Scorsese wouldn't be satisfied with anything short of real honest to god violence:
"He's supposed to pull a gun on me and then he's supposed to punch me in the face. And we're shooting it and we do a couple takes...Scorsese's going, 'well, I don't know. It doesn't look good. Doesn't look good,' then he turns to me and he goes, 'Hey kid, you want to try one more [where] he hits you for real?'
"I turned to Leo... because I'm never going to say no to Martin Scorsese, and Leo just, I'm looking at him like, 'please help,' ...and then he just slowly looks away in the other direction. Leaving me hung out to dry basically...and I go, 'OK, alright, cool, alright, let's do this.'
"My big fake teeth that I wear split in half and fly out of my mouth, and I'm on the floor.
"Scorsese's like, 'get him new teeth and shoot his face because it's swelling.'"
As bad as that was, Hill claims that scene in which he pretends to eat a goldfish is even worse (via Contact Music):
"This is not exaggerated for storytelling purposes...I put the goldfish in my mouth the first take and it relieves itself in my mouth."
But even worse than a moment of fish doodie in the mouth, was the full day he spent with someone else's man plums uncomfortable close to his face (via Star Pulse):
"It was the most unhygienic scenario I've ever been in... It was like an 18-hour day in this enclosed airplane set and there's a guy's [testicles], like, three centimeters away from you. Usually when I have a guy's [testicles] three centimeters away from me I'm not on an airplane.
And to top it all off, Hill, according to Bing Hampton, said he didn't even enjoy the pretend oral sex he was receiving from his partner who apparently had kids:
"Her head would be down there and she'd be like, 'The transition from pre-school to kindergarten is so hard on them'. And you're like, 'Yeah, that does seem challenging!'"
Nothing's worse than when a promising scene falls flat.
