During an interview, Jason and Gillian, two actors known for their playful dynamic, shared some amusing behind-the-scenes moments from filming. One notable incident revolved around a scene where they were required to eat Pot Noodles. Jason humorously recalled initially hesitating to try the chicken-flavored noodles due to his veganism, only to be reassured by the crew that they were vegan-friendly despite the misleading label.
They both found the noodles surprisingly delicious, leading to a hilarious moment where the director demanded they tone down their enjoyment for a retake—only to find they had already finished the noodles because they couldn’t help but savor them.
The duo also touched on their differing perspectives on humor and personality traits. Gillian playfully claimed to be funnier while also hinting at Jason’s naturally humorous side, with Jason attributing his wit to his Liverpool roots. He described it as a cultural tendency, where humor is often used to soften even the harshest news.
In a discussion about gestures of camaraderie, Jason revealed that he gifted the crew with various Hot Ones sauces for their final day of filming. This bonding experience turned into a lively challenge, with the crew sampling the sauces from mild to extremely spicy. The atmosphere shifted dramatically during the final tasting as reactions varied drastically, with some crew members even finding themselves in distress from the heat.
These candid revelations not only provide insight into their filming experience but also highlight the light-hearted atmosphere they cultivated on set, reminding us that humor and camaraderie can flourish even during challenging shooting schedules.
