Mauled by Lions

Jodie Foster

Actress JODIE FOSTER was chomped by a feline co-star while shooting her very first feature, the 1972 Disney movie Napoleon and Samantha. The film featured Foster and TV's Family Affair star Johnnie Whittaker as two kids who escape into the woods with an aging circus lion. (Non-biting co-stars included Will Geer and Michael Douglas.)

Foster wasn't seriously injured, but the incident left lasting marks: in 1992 People magazine described her as having "sturdy kickboxer's calves... supporting a trim 5'4" frame (with faint lion-bite scars on stomach and back, suffered at age 8 filming Napoleon And Samantha)."
