Witherspoon Refuses Sex In Four Christmases

By Doug - January 7, 2008 - 13:22 America/Montreal

Reese-WitherspoonIt looks like the hatred on the set of Four Christmases is at the boiling point! Witherspoon is now refusing to do a sex scene with Vince Vaughn! We get the scoop from our friends at slashfilm:

Another report from the set of December’s Four Christmases has the bright-and-grizzled stars clashing and disrupting the set, this time over (not) filming a sex scene. Back in December, the New York press ran with a source that claimed Witherspoon was livid with Vaughn’s scratch-and-act work ethic and his tendency to brush off her requests to block out scenes. And what’s worse? The two are co-producing the film. Is it just me?

I wonder if the hatred these two are developing for each other will add or detract from the film. Personally – I cannot wait to find out. What makes this on set war even more amazing is that it is a Christmas movie! The holidays are rife with domestic issues and it is nice to see art imitating life.

Am I alone on this, or do you think that maybe what these two need more than anything is to kiss and make up. Some Lionel Ritchie on the stereo, a few drinks with umbrellas, an extended sex scene in front of the crew (videotaped for the world to see) may be just what the doctor ordered. I know that after I have sexual intercourse with a person, I usually think very highly of them. Make up sex is the glue that holds many relationships together, in fact, in some cases it is the only worthwhile part of a troubled relationship. I think these two should set their differences aside and hump it out.

    Ugh, this has bomb written all over it. If you’re watching a romance, where the success of the film depends on the chemistry and likability of the 2 actors, and you know that in real life, they hate each other, it’s doomed in my opinion.

    I’ll be the press tour will be fun for the two of them as well.

    Maybe it’s all just clever (cheap) marketing by a very experienced publicist? I’m sure there are some people that care enough to go see a heap such as this just to see if they really “hated” each other on screen.

    I dunno…I used to like Vaughn a lot.

    I’m with Daryl. Seems like a stunt to me. Do they really have to grab for straws so soon? Oh wait..plant the seed in my mind…I get it :(

  4. JAMIE says:

    NO SEX!!?? NOOO!!! CMOOOON MAN!ok im DEFINATEDLY not watching it now

  5. Y’know something? I’m backing Reese here. After all, does Vince wear his Santa suit again?

  6. Kristina says:

    When I hear that people are either fucking each other or hating each other, it makes me more interested in the movie, truth be told. I’d see this just to see if I can spot Reese shooting him the stink-eye.

  7. JAMIE says:

    lmao ^ i lik wat doug sayd “I think these two should set their differences aside and hump it out.” HAHA AMEN!

  8. Kristina says:

    Hey, angry sex is still SEX:)

  9. RonSalon says:

    I’m with Reese and I don’t blame her… Woo in there right mind would lay next to him, let alone make out with him several times? Yuck. And, if by chance, you do like him that’s fine too. I’m with Phill, bomb written all over it!

    krystina
    but angry sex with vince vaughn INVOLVED can be disturbing- but if reese witherspoon is in it- id be forced to replay it many times on youtube…

  11. Kristina says:

    @JAMIE

    This is true.

    @RonSalon

    “Who in their right mind would lay next to him, let alone make out with him several times?”

    Jennifer Aniston. What a step down from Brad Pitt:(

    Reese needs chin reduction surgery.

  13. JAMIE says:

    thos-
    what? who cares about her chin dude!

    and krystina/ronsalon-
    he is lik one of those actors who always does the role of the looser of the family lik the drunk high school drop out-hes overweight, never shaves and wakes up at 12 pm everyday, thta always somehow gets the hottie- it used to be addam sandler but now its vince voughn

  14. Andy Cooper says:

    I don’t know these two thespians from strangers on a bus, but as someone who has seen a few of their past movies I have a couple of observations: 1, He looks like a slob in need of a shower and shave; 2, She’s kinda sweet and well-mannered; 3, I can’t imagine in a thousand years her wanting to take a roll with scruffy Vince under the Christmas tree, in bed, on the sofa, the kitchen table or anywhere else and 4, if she did succumb to this nightmare I wouldn’t want to see it . . .

  15. rafa1215 says:

    Thos – I’m also with you – her chin will get in the way :)

    That’s why guys care about her chin :)

  16. Kristina says:

    I got it!

    She’s dating Jake Gyllenhaal. He’s got experience with man-lovin’. Send him into the trenches of Vince’s nether-regions in Reese’s place!

  17. Emily says:

    Well, I don’t know very much about this movie, but it sounds like Reese really hates Vince. To put this into perspective, Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey hated each other when they filmed Dirty Dancing and that turned out to be one of the best on-screen match-ups ever, if you ask me. So, maybe these two fighting so much will make the movie turn out pretty good.
