After over three decades of waiting,
Schwarzenegger revealed in his latest newsletter that DeVito had played a devilish
"He'd always make me the most delicious pasta at lunch, and we'd eat and schmooze and have a cigar before we went back to work," Schwarzenegger wrote of his costar DeVito. "One day, he packed my cigar with marijuana without telling me."
DeVito's special cigar left Schwarzenegger unable to get his words out when they went back on set.
"My brain had completely forgotten the scene I had no trouble with before lunch," Schwarzenegger wrote. "Danny was laughing up a storm, and [director] Ivan [Reitman] flipped the cameras to film Danny's close-up so I could read my lines off the page and we wouldn't waste any time."
Schwarzenegger said he slowly got out of his haze and laughed along with everyone else on the joke.
So, when the two actors recently got together for a meeting ahead of their long-awaited sequel entitled "Triplets," Schwarzenegger thought it would be the perfect moment to get DeVito back.
Schwarzenegger gifted DeVito a cigar filled with marijuana.
"But unfortunately, he still has the nose of a bloodhound, and sniffed out the special ingredient right away," Schwarzenegger wrote.
Schwarzenegger recorded the encounter for his YouTube page. You can see DeVito instantly realizing what was happening.
"I'll save that one," DeVito said as Schwarzenegger laughed, the two wearing matching Hawaiian shirts like in the "Twins" movie.
Filming on "Triplets" is set to start early next year.
