9 Steamy Scenes Famous Actors Regret Doing

4. Eva Mendes regrets kissing Johnny Depp…but, not for the reason you think.

Once Upon a Time in Mexico concludes director Robert Rodriguez’s “Mexico Trilogy” with Johnny Depp playing CIA agent Sheldon Sands and Eva Mendes as a sadistic AFN operative who betrays him. They wind up kissing before the former shoots the latter dead. It’s a pretty epic scene.

Mendes does have one particular regret about that sequence, however. Seems she’d been harboring a long crush on Depp and wishes the kiss had been drawn out longer. “I was so intimidated by him,” she explained.

5. Taylor Lautner wants people to take his acting seriously (and give him a shirt).

Taylor Lautner played the werewolf character Jacob in the Twilight series. His lycanthropic transformations were accompanied by the removal of his clothes, giving fans of the series many opportunities to view his fit, muscular body. Many, many more opportunities than he was ever comfortable with.

“If I had to choose, I would never take my shirt off again in a movie,” Taylor has elaborated, “but I guess that’s not very realistic. I certainly won’t be asking to do it, though.”

While he takes pride in the effort he put in to get the physique shown off in the films, he worries that it gets in the way of people appreciating the work he put in to polish his acting craft. He doesn’t want to be seen as “just a body,” but a competent actor that’s qualified for non-beefcake roles.

6. Kate Winslet wants people to stop asking her to sign naked pictures of herself.

Titanic was a massively successful romantic dramatization of the sinking of the titular ship. It’s full of memorable moments, including a scene in which Kate Winslet’s Rose character asks Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jack to “draw me like one of your French girls.” It’s a passionate moment showing her character overcoming the disapproval of her fiancée and mother to claim her own agency and embrace the man she’s fallen in love with. Yet even now, weirdly obsessive fans try to get her to sign pictures of herself naked, and she’d love for that to stop.

“I don’t sign that picture”, she told Yahoo! News. “It feels very uncomfortable. Why would you do that?” Winslet is now 41, a happily married mother of three and multiple award-winning actresses. She finds herself baffled by why certain members of her fanbase are so obsessed with this one particular image decades later.

7. Burt Reynolds hurt himself pretty bad filming Deliverance.

Deliverance is a classic drama about man against nature (and other men), but it’s infamous for a scene too graphic to discuss here. Strangely enough, the only open regret from any of the actors comes from one who broke his butt a completely different way. There’s a scene in which the canoe Burt Reynolds’ character is paddling goes over a waterfall. Director John Boorman wanted to use a dummy, but Reynolds wasn’t having it. Being literally the condensed essence of 1970s masculinity, he insisted on performing his own stunts and went down the waterfall himself, landing on rocks that shattered his tailbone. Adding insult to injury, all that verisimilitude didn’t even create a more lifelike effect.

“He said his shoulder really hit a rock, and his head hit another rock,” comedian Norm Macdonald told Howard Stern in 2016. “And then he said the next thing he remembered was he was way downstream, all of his clothes were torn off. […] Next thing he remembers, he’s waking up in the hospital, John Boorman’s at his bedside. And he goes, ‘I said to John, how’d it look… on the dailies?’ And John Boorman said, ‘It looked like a dummy falling over a waterfall.'”
