Will Ferrell has lost his voice yelling at a robot bear all day during his 'Semi-Pro' shooting scenes.
Will Ferrell has lost his voice yelling at a bear. The actor strained his voice while filming a scene where his character wrestles a bear in a boxing ring for new movie '
Semi-Pro'.
Struggling to speak at the '
Blades of Glory' premiere on Wednesday (28.03.07), he told the USA Today newspaper: "I was yelling all day in my scenes, so I lost my voice."
The 39-year-old actor plays a basketball player and coach in 'Semi-Pro', alongside Andy Richter. Richter, who also worked with Will on 'Blades of Glory', revealed his co-star had not been wrestling a real bear, but a robotic one. He said: "Today it was a fake bear with an amazing animatronic suit that's controlled by four people."
Richter and Will star alongside '
Napoleon Dynamite' actor Jon Heder in ice-skating comedy 'Blades of Glory'.
