Speaking during an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Julia Cunningham Show, Shannon said that the awkward moment happened when the scene required him to get up close with DiCaprio.
According to him, leaning over the legendary actor led to a massive drool dropping out of his mouth and landing on Leonardo’s trousers, and that was a very embarrassing moment for him.
“I wasn’t there too long. You know, I just had the one little scene in the woods, and then I had the scene in the dining room and Leo’s closeup was kind of the last thing we did, which was pretty gracious of him.
