Succession Star Went Vegan On Day 2 Of Filming This '90s Classic

1995 film BabeSuccession actor James Cromwell, who starred as farmer Arthur Hogget in the 1995 kids’ film Babe, recently told The Guardian that the movie had an unexpected effect on his life. Based on Dick King-Smith’s children’s book The Sheep-Pig, the hit movie depicted a surprisingly clever pig who trains to become a sheep herder. The actor says he lasted just two days before making a lifelong change. Babe movie“On the second day of filming, I broke for lunch before everybody else. All the animals I’d worked with that morning were on the table, cut up, fricasseed, roasted and seared,” Cromwell told the publication.“That was when I decided to become a vegan.”And according to the actor, he wasn’t alone. “The only negative thing I ever heard about Babe was from a woman who said it ruined her relationship with her daughter,” he shared. “They used to enjoy Big Macs together and now her daughter wouldn’t eat animals. I thought: ‘If that’s what you based your relationship on, it sucks anyway!’”The 85-year-old also revealed how he came up with the delivery of the movie’s iconic closing line, “That’ll do, pig, that’ll do.” He explained, “I asked [director Chris Noonan] how he wanted me to deliver my final line, and he said: ‘Right down the lens.’ I didn’t expect what happened: reflected back at me in the camera lens, I saw not me, but my father.“On that thought, I laid the line: ‘That’ll do pig, that’ll do.’ At the time, I hadn’t forgiven my father, who was a director and very critical of my work, which stung.“I didn’t know I had to forgive him. But at that moment, I looked at myself and saw I am my father’s son and I love him. Without a doubt, it brought closure.” Who knew so much went into the classic ’90s flick?Related...Is A Vegan, Vegetarian, Or Omnivore Diet Best For Your Gut?People Are Just Realising Succession And Severance Share 1 Touching DetailJames Gunn Reveals The 1 ‘Most Challenging’ Detail Of Filming Superman – And It Might Surprise You
