There are few things more entertaining to watch than a behind-the-scenes moment where an actor breaks and laughs along with the joke instead of staying in character. That’s why we’ve made a video out about the funniest, most memorable, and most charming instances of actors breaking their castmates during filming. It’s mandatory viewing, not just if you’re on the lookout for a good laugh yourself, but for anyone who likes to take a peak behind the curtain of Hollywood sets.<\/p>\n
There’s something uniquely revealing about those moments in which the necessary steeliness of acting \u2014 the carefully-sustained illusion that everything within a show or film’s universe is actually happening \u2014 gives way to the atavistic human impulse to just giggle at silly stuff. It’s a testament to the fact that actors are human beings first and foremost. Even A-listers are not immune to reacting sincerely to funny things, no matter how experienced they are.<\/p>\n
These moments often remind us that cast members are usually friends in real life<\/a>. Of course, that’s not always the case (there are plenty of TV friends who couldn’t stand each other in real life<\/a>). But, for the most part, actors who get on well with each other give the best performances. A by-product of getting so close is that the temptation to goof around creeps in \u2014 after all, who hasn’t tried to make a friend laugh when they know they shouldn’t?<\/p>\n
