Actors Who Never Recovered From Their Most Distressing Roles

Isla Fisher in Now You See Me

Now You See Me may have been a magical moviegoing experience, but Isla Fisher had a less-than-enchanting incident behind the scenes. During the scene where Fisher's character Hensley is submerged in a tank of water and starts to drown. However, Fisher was supposed to be able to release herself.

"My chain got stuck," Fisher revealed. "I had to swim to the bottom; I couldn't get up. Everyone thought I was acting fabulously. I was actually drowning. No one realized I was actually struggling."

Thankfully, the crew eventually realized that Fisher was in actual danger and pulled the safety latched.
