Amy Poehler is usually a good hang, but not during this moment.
The “Parks and Recreation” alum recently reflected on a memory from a flight she took with her former SNL colleague Ana Gasteyer and Ana’s now 23-year-old daughter Frances amid filming for “Mean Girls,” and getting into a verbal altercation with a fellow passenger.
“It’s a long story, but what happened was a first class guy—we were in first class too—he was like, ‘Excuse me, you’re being too loud in first class,’” Amy recalled during the Dec. 23 episode of “Good Hang” alongside Ana. “And my Boston came out, let’s just say that.”
For Ana—who shares Frances and Ulysses, 17, with husband Charlie McKittrick—it was “the best thing” she’d ever seen, adding, “The guy got mad you were swearing in front of the baby.”
Of course, Amy is far from the only star to stir the pot while filming a movie. Mark Ruffalo recently shared how he had to stop “Now You See Me” co-star Woody Harrelson from a physical confrontation while shooting the 2013 film.

“We were shooting ‘Now You See Me’—the first one—in New Orleans, completely on the streets,” Mark recalled during an appearance on Ted Danson’s “Where Everybody Knows Your Name” podcast in October. “Capturing stuff on a long lens, getting dragged into bars during the middle of a scene, like in the middle of Mardi Gras.”
Amid the “wild” moment of shooting, Mark noted that a woman came over to Woody to dote on him.
“Woody put his hand on her arm and he said, ‘Oh, thank you. Thank you, darling,’” Mark continued. “And this guy comes over and he pushes her outta the way, and he shoves Woody.”
Immediately, Mark knew there was going to be trouble “’cause Woody’s first response is not to shove someone back, but immediately punch them in the face.”
And so Mark took it upon himself to drag Woody out of the bar before any kind of “melee” could break out.
“I was like, ‘This could be fun,’” Mark joked, “but it also just could go so disastrously wrong.”
