Josh Lucas had a few problems while on the set of his latst film, 'Posiedon'.


Even though he took training in breath-control to play the leader of a group trying to escape the capsized ship, Lucas wasn't prepared for the rigors of five months of filming in a 22- ft.deep pool:

"I started to hate that tank so badly. There's one chunk in the movie where I’m underwater for a long time and I got as close as I could get without running out of air. It was a very scary moment."

But his biggest problem was:

"The amount of people peeing in that tank! It was such an issue. Someone asked me why I didn't just mutiny."

On set Lucas did most of his stunts – with mixed results. He snapped a muscle in his thumb, there was nothing connecting the thumb except skin, the doctors had to cut it open and reattach it!! During an underwater scene, costar Kurt Russell accidently hit him in the face with a metal flashlight causing a gash. It wasn't a big deal but Russell's longtime love, Goldie Hawn thought otherwise, says Lucas:

"Kurt came over to me and said, ‘Goldie wanted to know if I had apologized to you.' It was one of those total guy moments. He never once actually said, 'I'm sorry.'"

I love the fact that Goldie Hawn sent Kurt Russell over to apologise like a little boy - and I love that he didn't then say sorry even more!!
