Schwarzenegger and Margolyes appeared together in End of Days, which is about a detective (Schwarzenegger) who must save a woman (Robin Tunney) who has been chosen to conceive the Antichrist with Satan (Gabriel Byrne). Margolyes played Mabel, who is part of Satan’s mission and gets into a physical fight with Schwarzenegger’s character. In response to a question about any co-stars or actors she’s met who she wasn’t a fan of, Margolyes responded, “I didn’t like the wrestler, you know, from Austria. What’s his name?” When the host helped her remember, she continued, “Schwarzenegger. I couldn’t think of his name for a minute. Schwarzenegger. Didn’t care for him.“ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb The 81-year-old actor explained, “He’s a bit too full of himself. I don’t care for him at all. He’s a Republican, which I don’t like. And he was actually quite rude.” For more celebrity news delivered right to your inbox, sign up for our daily newsletter. Why did Margolyes find Schwarzenegger rude? Here’s how she tells it. “He farted in my face. Now, I fart. Of course I do. But I don’t fart in people’s faces. He did it deliberately right in my face,” Margolyes told I’ve Got News for You. Asked when and where this happened, she explained, “I can’t remember the date, but it was during the filming of End of Days in Los Angeles. And I was playing Satan’s sister, and [Schwarzenegger’s character] was killing me, so he had me in a position where I couldn’t escape and lying on the floor (laughs).” She added, “And he just farted. It wasn’t on film, it was in one of the pauses, but I haven’t forgiven him for it.” This isn’t the first time Margolyes has shared her memories of working with Schwarzenegger. In a 2016 piece for The Guardian, she called him a “pig” and spoke out about how he allegedly treated other women. “Arnold Schwarzenegger is a pig of a man,” Margolyes said. “We worked together [on the blockbuster End of Days] in 1999, and although he was relatively professional with me—because he didn’t fancy me—he was awfully gropey with women he was interested in. He thought a lot of himself, but I wasn’t surprised: he was a bodybuilder from Austria who went on to became a worldwide star.” Schwarzenegger addressed groping claims about him in 2003, just before he was elected governor of California. (He served in the office until 2011.) “It is true that I was on rowdy movie sets and I have done things that were not right which I thought then was playful,” he said, according to The Guardian. “But now I recognize that I offended people. Those people that I have offended, I want to say to them I am deeply sorry about that and I apologize because that’s not what I’m trying to do.” READ THIS NEXT: Tom Hanks’ Decades-Long Feud With This Star Is “Painful,” Friend Says. Margolyes has told her story about filming the scene with Schwarzenegger before. And she said that she let him know how upset she was at the time. “I was in the horror film End of Days with him in 1999, playing the Devil’s servant Mabel,” she told Reader’s Digest UK. “I had my throat sliced by a glass table at the end, and I remember Schwarzenegger farted right in my face when I was down on the floor, trying not to move. I shouted, ‘[Expletive] you, Arnie!’ I was really cross.”
