Jacob Elordi has recalled his experience filming the series finale of 'Euphoria' while stuck in a coffin with a snake, this during an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' on July 20, hosted by 'Euphoria' co-star Colman Domingo.
"I got locked in a coffin for two days straight with prosthetics and a fake tongue, and I couldn't see out of my eyes," Elordi said. "And then [director] Sam [Levinson] put [a snake] into the coffin."
Elordi described the nonvenomous boa constrictor as "very docile and very sleepy," even comparing it to a dog who only wanted to find a warm spot and curl up at his feet. Domingo joked that his nonchalant description was because Elordi is Australian, used to living in a place where anything can kill you.
The intense shoot lasted six weeks and included physically demanding scenes. Elordi summed it up as "[Levinson] brought me back to torture me."
