Natasha Lyonne Recalls ‘Scary Movie 2’ of Marlon Brando’s Cameo

Natasha  Lyonne Braunstein is an actress, director, writer, and producer from the United States. She is best recognized for her role as Nicky Nichols on Netflix’s comedic drama Orange Is the New Black.

Onset, Marlon Brando was reported as “extremely chatty” and was seen wearing an earpiece.

In the horror-comedy parody ‘Scary Movie 2,’ iconic actor Marlon Brando had one of his final performances, which had him holding the breast of young actress Natasha Lyonne. The scene, however, was never included in the final version.

Lyonne said Brando stepped out of the film due to sickness, according to Entertainment Weekly’s video series ‘Role Call.’ But, according to ‘Deadline,’ he recorded a scene with her first, and she kept a video clip of that unforgettable meeting.

The scene in question was a parody of ‘The Exorcist’ at the start of the sequel. Natasha Lyonne said, “I don’t know what he was thinking, really.”

“He had an oxygen tank and he just kind of held my b**b because that was in the script. He was supposed to be like, ‘The power of Christ compels you.’ I just remember being like, ‘Ah, this is the surrealism that Andre Breton, and Salvador Dali were talking about.”

“So, I had Brando with the earpiece and the hand on the boob, and the make-up, and ‘The power of Christ compels you,’ and not to curse, but, ‘Your mother sucks c-s in hell,’ and so on,”

“This was all happening at once, and I remember like, ‘You know, showbiz is all right.’ In that moment, showbiz was A-okay.”

Natasha Lyonne Confirms Fred Armisen’s Divorce We’re still talking all the time

Natasha Lyonne Braunstein is an American actress, director, and writer. She is known for playing Nicky Nichols on the Netflix comedy-drama series Orange Is the New Black.

Natasha Lyonne said, “I honestly think we broke up because I wanted a swimming pool.” Natasha Lyonne and Fred Armisen have ended their relationship.

The 43-year-old actress opened out about her relationship with Armisen—and revealed their split—while speaking with The Hollywood Reporter about the long-awaited second season of her Russian Doll series.

In response to the question of whether she is currently based in Los Angeles, Lyonne informed the publication, “I’m not one of them. During COVID, I was there living with Fred [Armisen].”

“I honestly think we broke up because I wanted a swimming pool,” she continued. “We love each other just about as much as two people can love each other and we’re still talking all the time, but Freddy doesn’t like a swimming pool. It might seem like a mundane reason for a breakup, but during that pandemic, you’ve got to get your laps — I’m like Burt Lancaster in The Swimmer.”

“So that’s the real scandal,” New Black alum jokingly added. “I guess I finally am an actual bicoastal.”
