BlindGossip – Actors usually don’t have a problem staying in control during love scenes. Since romance is blocked and rehearsed and shot under the hot lights and in front of a large crew, even the most intimate scenes are usually little more than a carefully choreographed, technical exercise.
However, on the set of this one period film, things got a little out of control. During a kissing scene between a handsome, foreign-born actor and a sexy American actress, the actress suddenly stopped and backed away a few paces from her co-star. The actor was left standing there alone. Well, he wasn’t exactly alone. He was accompanied by the incredible bulge in his pants. Filming had to be halted for several minutes while the actor cooled off.
Not Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman.
It’s Eric Bana and Scarlett Johansson! Source: BlindGossip.com
This event occurred during the filming of ‘The Other Boleyn Girl,” which also stars Natalie Portman.
When Bana started getting excited during a love scene, Johansson simply backed away and waited for assistance. According to our source on the set, Johansson was totally professional about the whole situation, and went right back into the scene after a brief “cool down” period.
Why did we mention Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman? Well, we knew that they might be likely suspects because they starred in “Moulin Rouge” together. Bana starred in “Black Hawk Down” with McGregor, and he is Australian like Kidman. And Moulin “Rouge” might have also led you to “Scarlett”. OK, that one was a stretch. Another clues was the word “incredible” (as in incredible bulge) because Eric Bana played The Incredible Hulk (But not in this movie. Because that would have been weird).
MsPitStop was the first to get this one right. Congratulations!

I go for:
Film: The Other Boleyn Girl
Actress: Scarlett Johannson
Actor: Aussie Eric Bana … he used to be a comedian (ie not a trained actor), and as an Aussie, he’s be “I feel like Woody, mate”.
I’ll second the Bana guess. “incredible bulge”= and he played the Incredible Hulk. For the woman? It could be Scarlett or Jennifer Connelly (his co-star in Hulk).
oh swoon
It’s totally R Patz and Reese Witherspoon in “Water for Elephants”. That’s why she acts all creeped out by him now.
Oops, replied in the wrong spot. Sorry.
No idea, Colin Farrell & Rosario Dawson in Alexander? He’s supposed to be huge.
Could this be a musical period piece?
The hints: not Ewan/Nicole from Moulin Rouge, “choreographed,” “rehearsed,” etc.
The only musical period pieces that come to mind are Nine and Chicago (there were no real sex scenes.)
There was somewhat of a sex scene at the beginning of Chicago with Dominic West and Renee Zellweger. Dominic West was born in England.
Across the Universe?
Starred an American actress and a British actor, and is a musical period piece.
Could be:
Becoming Jane – Anne Hathaway & James McAvoy
Girl with a pearl earring – Scarlett Johansson and Colin Firth
The other Boleyn girl – Scarlett Johansson/Natalie Portman and Eric Bana
I want to guess Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon on Water for Elephants.
Ooh, wouldn’t THAT just drive the Twi-tards crazy?
Reese spent much of the WfE press tour complaining that their love scene was “gross” due to RPatz having a snotty cold. Maybe she was more repulsed by another part of his anatomy! Also, their final scenes were remarkably unsexy. Maybe it was because of cold water thrown on the scene to cool him down.
Or maybe because he’d rather be doing the scene with Reese’s ex!
I agree with this one!
Collin Firth & Scarlett Johansson in The Girl with the Pearl Earring? Haven’t seen the movie though so not sure if they kiss in it.
No, Colin and Scarlet don’t have a love scene in that film. Scarlet makes out with some other guy in The Girl With the Pearl earring, I forget his name but he’s not super famous.
It’s Cillian Murphy.
He is super-cute and, after Inception, famous enough.
I didn’t mean it as a slight, I only meant in comparison to the poster’s guess of Colin Firth
Hugh Jackman & Nicole Kidman in Australia ?
Something tells me it’s NOT Hugh Jackman.
Lol!
Nicole Kidman is not American.
OK, well I guess technically she could be considered American since she was born in Honolulu. Thanks to cosmicgirl for pointing that out!
Like that other guy who went into politics….I’m blanking on his name.
Hee.
jonah hex..megan fox and whoever the guy is
Josh Brolin, the other star, is American, so this could not be the couple.
Eric Bana (Australian) and Scarlett Johanson, The Other Boleyn Girl?
Robert Pattison and Reese Witherspoon?
I’m going to go with the Baz Luhrmann connection here.
Actor: Hugh Jackson – born in Australia
Actress: Nicole Kidman – born in Hawaii therefore can be described as an American actress
Film: Australia
still don’t think Hugh would have that reaction to Nicole
Jessica Biel & Ben Barnes in Easy Virtue?
I like this guess
Yes, agree with this guess too!!
Rob P. & Reese W.?
Really a bulge for reese w.lol
For some reason this made me think of James McAvoy & Anne Hathaway in BECOMING JANE.
Rob and Reese.
Eric Bana and ScarJo in “The Other Boleyn Girl”? He’s Australian.
Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess. The movie is “One Day”.
Water for Elephants, Rob Pattinson and Reese?
Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson
Robert Pattinson and Christina Ricc or Uma Thurman? (Bel Ami)
*Ricci
Why is everybody talking about Robert Pattinson? He already admitted he’s allergic to vaginas.
He means they make him swell. Brit humor, you know ajoke?
Oh, Brits are so clever. Never thought it meant “swell.” Me like it.
Well, I’d say this was Reese Witherspoon and either Christoph Waltz or Robert Pattinson on the set of Water for Elephants…. only period film I can think of that came out recently.
I have no clue, but should we be thankful that there is at least one actively heterosexual male actor in Hollywood?
Ha! My thoughts exactly. As one Hollywood actor (forget who) put it: If I get aroused, she’ll be offended. If I don’t, she’ll also be offended.
I think Nicholson coined that phrase. lol I’m going with Rob and Reese on this one.
I’m kind of with you, Bubbles. I really don’t see the big deal on this one.
@Bubbles – Amen!
Robert Pattinson & Reese Witherspoon!
R-patz and Reese – water for elephants
Rock of Ages is filming now. It’s set in the 80s, which sort of makes it a period film. Maybe Russell Brand and Julianne Hough?
I was thinking ROA, too, but with Julianne and the male lead, who is from Mexico.
I glad Angie hasn’t started filming for Cleopatra!
Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon during the filming of Water for Elephants?
Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson in Water for Elephants?
This couldn’t be Reese and RPatz, could it?
Hugh Grant
Julia Roberts
gwyneth and joseph!
Skarsgaard and Paquin
I’m going to guess ScarJo and Eric Bana from the Other Boelyn Girl. Why because ScarJo is the answer to everything, right?
RPatz and Reese….Water for Elephants
The “not Ewan and Nicole” makes me think it’s musical. Wasnt Nine a period piece? I’ll say Daniel Day-Lewis and Kate Hudson…
I’m going to echo the ScarJo/Bana guess. Only because the pic is from Moulin Rouge (Rouge=Scarlet).
And not only that, but the color red is everywhere in that photo, including Nicole’s red hair (and since she’s usually a blonde these days, the choice of showing her with red hair seems a bit unusual.)
Reese and RPatz seem like a good guess as there was lots of talk about how filming their love scenes was somewhat awkward. However, is Reese generally described as “sexy”? Not really.
I don’t think Hugh Jackman would get a rise, so to speak, out of Nicole Kidman.
Would the HBO Mildred Pierce count? If so Evan Rachel Wood and somebody. Didn’t watch it but the kidman photo made me think of her.
‘..the incredible bulge..’ This makes me think of The Incredible Hulk..Eric Bana and Scarlett Johanson
I like that connection! Bana and his banana made Scarlett scarlet!
hahaha! I laughed out loud at that! *my kids looking at me strangely*
HAHAHA! Banana Bana Bo Bana!
Do you think the blind is refering to a recent film? Doesn’t Keira Knightly do mostly period pieces? Or Kate Winslet? How about Javier Bardem and someone.
neither keira nor kate are american.
Really think it’s a new movie coming out, so I’m guessing
“Cars 2″
Sally Carrera (Bonnie Hunt) and Finn McMissile (Michael Caine)
It’s pretty obvious from the clues!
brilliant! I think you nailed that one.
Actor : James Mcavoy (he is scottish, just like Ewan Mcgregor)
Actress : Anna Hathaway (she is american, but sexy ?)
Movie : Becoming Jane
Funny, this is another one of those posts that doesn’t really qualify as “gossip”. It happens to most guys ten times a day! (Sorry, it’s just natural. We can’t help it). This certain event is going to happen to even the most focused of actors.
And I know quite a few actresses who have told me they take it as a compliment when it happens.
Did Jude Law have a love scene in the 2nd Sherlock Holmes? Period piece movie and he is kind of a horndog.
What about Nicole Kidman and Jude Law in Cold Mountain?
“OK, well I guess technically she could be considered American since she was born in Honolulu.”
There is no “technically” about it. A U.S. state is a U.S. state is a U.S. state. And born in one = “American.”
Technically would be the correct term. Technically (according to the facts) she is both Australian and American holding dual citizenship although she is generally thought of as an Australian actress.
Colin Firth in Valmont
Antonio Banderas, Angelina Jolie – Original Sin.
Why do I find it difficult to picture Angelina recoiling from any man’s…um, bulge??
It’s pretty clearly Eric Bana and ScarJo. The Australian connection (using a Luhrmann film as a “not”; Bana is Australian), the use of the color red in the photo (Scarlett), the verbal clue of “incredible” (Bana played the Hulk). This next one may be reaching a bit, but in Hanna, Bana’s character lived in Finland above the arctic circle (“cooled off”). The period film is The Other Boleyn Girl.
The Other Boleyn Girl’s been the alleged subject of blind items before, too (it was the popular guess in a blind about an expensive dress that was destroyed in a cigarette accident).
Oh, and I think the “not” is also a clue that the blind doesn’t necessarily involve a terribly recent film. So it doesn’t “have” to be, say, Water for Elephants.
Why would anyone even freak out? Id take the compliment and move right on. Id EXPECT that, actually.
ha! i honestly don’t get how some guys keep it un-excited. i’ve always just thought men are men and their little friend doesn’t care if there are 100s of cameras around
+1
Jessica Biel
Ben Barnes
–Easy Virtue
Oh, to kiss on Scarlett for a living…
Perfectly understandable IMHO.
well done ‘MsPitStop’ I wonder if the studios know there is a heterosexual working in hollywood. Now that he has been outted. i wonder if he’s work will still get roles?
