Willem Dafoe (Antichrist)

In typical Lars von Trier fashion, he

couldn't just reveal that Willem Dafoe used
a penis double for a scene in 2009's
controversial Antichrist, but went into a
deeply uncomfortable, vaguely trollish
diatribe about the reasons behind the
phallic switcheroo.

"He’s extremely well-equipped," he told the

Boston Phoenix. "And we had to take the
scenes out of the film, we had a stand-in for
him, we had to take the scenes out with his
own d---

"We had to... because Will’s own was too

big. Everybody got very confused when
they saw it."

Von Trier is no stranger to body doubles.

Many of the more graphic shots in his 2013
film Nymphomaniac were performed by
pornographic actors... or so they claimed.
