Movie/TV Trivia
Leonardo DiCaprio once wiped his own blood on Kerry Washington
Leonardo DiCaprio is well-known for his method acting, but he took things one step too far on the set of Django Unchained!
During filming for the infamous dinner scene, the actor accidentally cut his hand open. He was on the sixth take of his racist rant when Leo smashed his hand against the table and hit a glass – ouch! But the actor didn’t flinch and the cameras kept rolling as DiCaprio finished the scene by wiping his own blood all over Kerry Washington’s face.
Yuck! Fortunately his co-stars appreciated the epic ad-libbing and once filming stopped, everybody on set burst into applause. “My hand started really pouring blood all over the table,” said DiCaprio. “Maybe they thought it was done with special effects. I wanted to keep going.
It was more interesting to watch Quentin’s and Jamie’s reaction off-camera than to look at my hand.” He then added that he was glad the director kept in the scene!
