Riley Keough has developed a unique filmography of movies and television shows, but she just revealed a surprising behind-the-scenes story about one fan-favorite. In a new Vanity Fair video diving into her previous projects, the Daisy Jones & The Six star revealed that while filming the 2018 film Under the Silver Lake, she nearly made co-star Andrew Garfield have a violent allergic reaction. According to Keough, she accidentally ate something containing peanuts before filming a scene where she and Garfield kiss โ only to learn that he is allergic to peanuts. The ordeal apparently briefly upended the film’s production, as everything had to be shut down to remove the peanuts.
“I was in the makeup trailer and I was eating, like, a granola bar or something, and I was about to shoot a scene where I have to kiss Andrew,” Keough explained. “And the makeup lady was like, ‘Are there peanuts in that?’ …The producer came in and was like, ‘Riley, Andrew’s very allergic to peanuts and we have to shut the set down. It shouldn’t have been at craft, and I don’t know why they’re on set.’ … I was just kind of like, ‘Oh f—, that’s crazy,’” she said. “But also thank God that this woman caught it, because I had no idea!”
