Can you share with us your funniest on-set story?

I have two: During the Amazon filming of The Flame I had to borrow my co-star’s iron. He thought it was tremendously funny that I didn’t own one. I told him that’s what dry cleaners were for.

The other time was on set During the filming of Lifetime Movie Network’s Destination Infestation, we were sitting in an airplane on set for 14 days straight. Because we were all pent up, I would do puppet shows with my pretend baby’s toys between takes to keep up morale.”
