Bradley Cooper has starred in multiple thrillers and dramas but his comedic genius in theHangoverfranchise continues to amaze audiences worldwide. A cult classic, it has a separate fanbase for it. However, it wasn’t easy to make the movie, for its production and shoot were riddled with issues.
To make matters worse, things went berserk whenBradley Cooper‘s co-starKen Jeonghad a crazy idea for one scene. In an interview withThe Hollywood Reporter, writerTodd Phillipsand the rest of the cast revealed some interesting details about the movie.
“In the script that Jeremy (Garelick) and I had written, Mr. Chow jumps out of the trunk in his underwear. It was Ken who came to me and said, ‘I think we should do this n*ked.’ I was like, ‘You don’t have to tell me twice!’.”
To which Jeong added,
“Bradley volunteered for me to jump on him. My g*nitals and Bradley’s neck are very good friends. Todd said midway through filming, ‘Bradley, if this is too uncomfortable for you, let me know.’ And Bradley said something to the effect of, ‘Todd, until you brought it up, I really didn’t realize how creepy this actually is.’”
But that is when more trouble struck the shoot.

Police Threatened To Shut Down Shoot Of Bradley Cooper’s Movie
It is no secret that theHangoverfranchise is known for its extreme adult humor and often controversial content and situations. So, it hardly seems surprising that while shooting the first movie police threatened to shut down the production due to that one scene where Jeong’s character jumps n*ked out of the trunk of a car. While talking toThe Hollywood Reporter, Todd Phillip revealed,
“When Ken jumped out of the trunk, there was a policeman who said that people were complaining from Mandalay Bay, which was in no way true. He said, ‘You keep doing it, and we’re going to shut you down.’”
Thus they had to improvise by building a cloth blackout,
“They were going to shut us down, so we built a wall of blackout cloth. It was so ridiculous. [Otherwise], they were so open to us. It was the best place to shoot.”
Despite everything, everyone claimed that shooting the movie was as fun as it was for the viewers. Perhaps that is why the first movie managed to gross over $468 million movie and now the entire franchise is worth over a billion dollars.
TheHangoverfranchise can be streamed on Netflix.
