Elon Musk
Paul Bettany
Johnny Depp
PULLED OVER
Description:
REPORTED MUCH LATER DURING THE PROMOTION FOR THE FILM - included here to add context by drawing attention to the fact that Elon Musk was on set, Johnny Depp did spend some time with him and, potentially, this may have been when Johnny Depp hurt his hand.
FROM USA TODAY 18 APRIL 2014:
Bettany recalled how Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Motors, was featured in one of the movie's scenes. "He really wanted to show us his Tesla,"
the actor said. "Johnny got in the front, and then the director and Rebecca got in the back, and there was no room for me, so Johnny
said, 'Come in on my, my lap.'"
"Which is really practical considering (Bettany) is 6' 5"," Hall added.
With all three stars and director Wally Pfister crammed into the car, they went racing off and ran a stop sign. Naturally, they got pulled
over. "Johnny went, 'Where is TMZ when I finally do something good?'" recalled Bettany.
