Betty Gilpin’s acting career began unfavorably.
The Gaslit star’s first concert – in “Law & Order” – saw her accidentally left in a body bag, she recalled in an episode of “The Tonight Show” on Thursday.
Gilpin remembered being zipped in his bag while Vincent D’Onofrio “had a dark scene” above her. But when the crew called Cut, they apparently forgot all about her and she was left inside.
“I hear footsteps on the gravel, moving farther and farther away. The doors of the van are closing, “she told host Jimmy Fallon. “And then 10 seconds pass, I hear a distant PA say, ‘Oh my God.’ Steps coming at me – unbutton the sunlight in my face – ‘Get you out of there.’
Fallon imitates Gilpin, who cries for help.
“No, I didn’t want to have high support,” she replied. “I wanted to work again that season.”
