00:00To see Benedict, and John Cho, and Carl Ervin get punked the way they did, it was wildly

00:06satisfying.

00:07Welcome to Miss Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the times when co-star

00:11shenanigans were just as funny and exciting as anything that ended up in the movies.

00:15No.

00:16No?

00:17You do not collect toys?

00:18Alright, there is, there is, there's got, there has to be.

00:2210.

00:23Emilia Clarke vs. Sam Claflin

00:26Me Before You

00:27This 2016 romantic drama is based on a Jojo Moyes novel about a caretaker who falls in

00:33love with a man who is left with paralysis of his limbs and torso after an accident.

00:38I'm just amazed that you could reach the ripe old age of what?

00:4226.

00:4326 and never have watched a film with subtitles.

00:46Oh, well I'm just amazed that you've reached the ripe old age of 31 without being locked

00:51in a cupboard for being such a snob.

00:54It might not sound like the funnest movie to make, but maybe that's why stars Emilia

00:58Clarke and Sam Claflin needed to let off some steam.

01:01With this job, there was a lot of pranking that went on with me and Emilia.

01:05It was like a bit of a war.

01:08During filming, Clarke started a prank war with Claflin.

01:11She framed him for the theft of a doll, he stole all the furniture out of her dressing

01:15room.

01:16Things only progressed from there.

01:17Then Claflin had the bright idea to pretend he was actually offended.

01:21The worst thing is that we don't have any footage of these antics.

01:24I'm planning on getting her back at some point over this tour.

01:28At the premiere.

01:299.

01:30The Dark Knight Redecorates

01:31Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice.

01:34It wasn't just Gotham City's caped crusader and Metropolis' Man of Steel that went to

01:39war on the set of this 2016 mashup.

01:41If I wanted it, you'd be dead already.

01:44Well really, it sounds like it was more one-sided than that.

01:47Indeed, Ben Affleck shared a video of himself sneaking into Cavill's trailer while the Superman

01:52actor was gone.

01:53In the video, posted to Affleck's social media, the actor reveals he had his co-star's space

01:58redecorated with Batman merch.

02:03Affleck ends the video by defacing Superman's likeness on the movie's poster.

02:07This wasn't the doll we were expecting, but maybe it's the one we deserve.

02:128.

02:14The Wrecked Porsche

02:17The Sting.

02:18Two of Hollywood's most popular leading men weren't just co-stars.

02:27They were friends.

02:28And what's better than an inside joke between friends?

02:30They got so close that the two began playing an elaborate prank on each other involving

02:34a Porsche.

02:35Annoyed at Newman for going on and on about cars, Redford had a wrecked heap of one delivered

02:40to his house.

02:43The two made a habit of passing the car back and forth in a worse state than before, until

02:48Redford had it placed in the middle of Newman's garden.

02:51Apparently, after that, they just never mentioned it again.

02:54That's friendship.

02:557.

02:56Pranksters of Oz

02:59The Wizard of Oz.

03:00According to a non-fiction book published for the film's 75th anniversary, there was

03:04an ongoing prank war on the set of this beloved musical classic.

03:13Behind their cumbersome outfits, the actors suffered long days in hot lights, as the Tin

03:17Man Jack Haley couldn't sit down in his costume, so he had to find ingenious ways to sleep.

03:22I had to be on what they call a reclining board, and I would go to sleep as soon as

03:26I got on the reclining board, and Bert Lahr said, that Haley can sleep on a bead hook.

03:33Cowardly lion actor Bert Lahr also wore a rather heavy ensemble.

03:38Fittingly, it's said that the two would often prank each other.

03:41One of the more famous incidents was when Haley was napping in his Tin Man getup, and

03:45Lahr adhered several tomato can stickers to it.

03:496.

03:51Radio Prank

03:52We're the Millers.

03:53In this 2013 crime comedy, Friends star Jennifer Aniston and Jason Sudeikis play two people

03:58pretending to be married so they can smuggle contraband into the USA.

04:09A scene where the characters are supposed to listen to TLC's Waterfalls got hijacked

04:13by a fun little prank.

04:15The take begins like any other, but then Sudeikis turns on the RV, and lo and behold, the theme

04:22song to Aniston's hit sitcom begins playing instead.

04:26Her immediate reaction to hearing the Rembrandt's tune, and the way her co-stars embody it with

04:30their moves, is absolutely priceless.

04:365.

04:39Crickets from Tiffany's

04:40The Hunger Games franchise

04:42Katniss Everdeen may be one of the most fearsome citizens in Panem, but no one seems to be

04:46all that scared of the actor who plays her.

04:53Jennifer Lawrence was the butt of a pretty wild prank during her time with the Hunger

04:57Games franchise.

04:58Let's just say we don't envy her in this case.

05:00This particular incident took place after her Oscar win for Silver Linings Playbook.

05:04We all messed with each other to make sure it was, you know, a conflicted experience.

05:09When she returned to set, co-star Jeffrey Wright gifted her something from Tiffany's,

05:13the luxury jeweler.

05:14Well, it came in a Tiffany box.

05:16In reality, it wasn't just a piece of jewelry waiting for her, it was a box of live crickets.

05:214.

05:22Neutron Cream

05:30Star Trek Into Darkness

05:31Sure, they played intergalactic soldiers with a handle on the intricate science between

05:35space travel, but in real life, the cast of Star Trek Into Darkness are just actors.

05:44They're used to doing what they're told.

05:46So when Chris Pine and Simon Pegg came up with the idea of Neutron Cream, no one really

05:51questioned it.

05:59Working at the National Ignition Facility, they roped the crew into convincing Benedict

06:03Cumberbatch and co. into wearing some to protect them from radiation.

06:07Apparently, this was pretty convincing.

06:10They wore the cream without even questioning the science behind it.

06:283.

06:32Soaking Wet

06:33The Ides of March

06:34On the set of the 2011 political drama, Ryan Gosling and George Clooney were having a conversation.

06:39At least, that's what Gosling thought.

06:52Once Clooney walked away, Gosling realized his pants were soaked.

06:56His co-star had done that with a spray bottle without him even knowing.

07:00Clooney is no stranger to pranks.

07:02Clooney and Brad Pitt reportedly terrorized the sets of the Ocean series.

07:12Their antics apparently included covering co-star Julia Roberts' hotel room door with

07:16shaving cream.

07:17During the second film, their prank war supposedly escalated, with Pitt convincing the crew they

07:22couldn't look Clooney in the eye, and Clooney putting embarrassing bumper stickers on Pitt's

07:27car.

07:342.

07:42The Interview

07:43The Lord of the Rings – The Return of the King

07:45During the press tour for Return of the King, Frodo actor Elijah Wood was in New York doing

07:50press virtually while his castmates were in Berlin.

08:00Wood couldn't actually see who was interviewing him, so when castmate Dominic Monaghan sat

08:05down to do so, he had no idea what was going on.

08:21Monaghan disguised his voice with a German accent and asked his co-star increasingly

08:25unhinged questions.

08:27By the end, Wood was so confused that Monaghan could barely keep it together.

08:31When he finally did reveal himself, it was a total love-fest that made us wonder just

08:35how fun that movie set was.

09:06Great Wind in the Great Hall – Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

09:10Coming of age on a movie set has got to be tough.

09:13Daniel Radcliffe began playing Harry Potter from the time he was 12, and we can only imagine

09:17that sometimes it made being a teenager awkward.

09:33His elder co-stars Michael Gambon played the solemn Dumbledore, but it seems like he was

09:38anything but.

09:45Indeed the actor placed a fart machine in Radcliffe's sleeping bag and pressed a hidden

09:49button to activate it.

10:00You haven't lived until you've seen Alan Rickman fall apart over a bodily function.

10:04That's one noise you'd never expect to hear in the Hogwarts Great Hall.

10:08Which of these pranks was your favorite?
