Fans spend a lot of time hyping up action stars for doing their own stunts, but let the record show it’s a rough life on the set of comedies too. David Spade, Chris Rock and the cast of Grown Ups 3 found that out first hand recently when they were forced to film a scene for two consecutive days that involved a lot of standing up. Fortunately, with emotional support from their longtime buddies and a few laughs, they were able to get through it.
Spade told the hilarious story during the most recent episode of his Fly On The Wall podcast with Dana Carvey. He said the Grown Ups 3 set schedule, which is currently ongoing, called for the main characters to shoot a scene where they’re drinking and talking. It was filmed over the course of two days, and partway through the first day, the guys, who are all in their late 50s or early 60s, were not enjoying the experience.
