Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams must rediscover love after an accident causes Rachel's character to lose her memory in The Vow, and Channing tells ET that he decided to pull a practical joke on her during a nude scene!
"I did have a stunt pee pee that I had made for her for her reaction," says Channing of the scene in which Rachel is surprised by her naked co-star walking into their bedroom. "It was a little prank that I pulled on her. It's in the movie – her reaction was spot on. I didn't have a lot of faith in her reaction because it was cold that day, and I didn't want her to be laughing and pointing. I wanted her to be shocked."
"A prosthetic, yes, that's all true," says Rachel with a laugh, recounting how Channing went to the prop department ahead of time to fabricate "a piece to terrify Rachel with." She adds, "But it was great because I didn't have to pretend … it was funny and got a genuine reaction out of me."
Channing adds, "I'm not shy about being naked, obviously, as you can see in most of my movies."
