‘I'd like to f**k him': Evangeline Lilly recalls awkward moment with co-star Michael Douglas, 78
Evangeline Lilly, 43, recently reminisced the awkward behind-the-set moment when she told her 'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania' co-star Michael Douglas, 78, she’d be glad to “f**k him." She further recollected a moment when she told Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer, 64, 'GILFs'. One of the eponymous stars from the latest Marvel production, Lilly, candidly spoke about her "oops" moment on a recent talk show.
Lilly, who is soon to be seen in 'The Jonathan Ross Show' in the upcoming weekend, narrated the incident that led to the awkward moment. She recalls, “There was this day on set, we were doing a scene in a restaurant and we were in a waiting room, so they filmed the waiting room with extras and there were children.” In a candid manner she further adds that she “turned to Michael and Michelle” and said, "You know, you guys are real GILFs."

Michael, who was clueless about the term, asked, “What’s a GILF?" To the question, Lilly said, she replied, "It's a grandpa I'd like to f**k." Realizing the faux pas, the 'Ant Man' veteran remembers the moment, “And then immediately realized I'd told Michael Douglas I'd like to f**k him, which is not what you should say in front of a bunch of kids, oops!”
The relationship between three actors
The triad of these talented actors is starring in the third installment of the popular 'Ant-Man' franchise which premiered on February, 6 and was released on February, 17. While Lilly is reprising her role as Hope van Dyne / Wasp, Douglas plays Hank Pym, a former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. Michelle Pfeiffer is seen as Janet van Dyne and Pym’s wife.
While the trio can be found connected in familial relationships in the film, they are close in real life too. Having a fangirl moment, she said, “They're so cool. You don't want to meet your icons because you're afraid they're going to disappoint and the three of them are cooler than you think they are. They're amazing,” notes Daily Mail.
'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania'
