You might want to think twice before getting into a fight with Jennifer Garner. The Golden Globe winner will go to great lengths when having to act out such a fight scene on camera. The actress once channeled her inner Mike Tyson to make a scene as realistic as possible years ago.
Jennifer was working with stuntman Sala Baker on an intense fight scene that went to extreme levels, quite literally. Pete Berg was directing the movie and told Sala to act like he was going to kill her. Apparently, Sala did a good job convincing Jennifer he was going to just that because she claims to have actually bitten a “chunk” of his ear off.

Jennifer had to create an intense situation and, as a result, took matters to extremes. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Jennifer recalls that Pete told her, during the fight scene with Sala, to do whatever it took to survive. At one point, she was scrambling on her back before resorting to the cannibalistic tactics. “I bit his ear, and we have a picture of him missing a chunk of ear, because we were not kidding,” said Jennifer.
She and Sala reunited for a similar fight scene in season two of The Last Thing He Told Me. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau was her co-star on that show and evidently was a little disturbed upon hearing what Jennifer previously done to Sala. He wondered what was wrong with everyone on set for acting so calm about that previous incident.
Currently, Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner are said not to be “best friends” and are only staying cordial with one another at their kids’ requests. Both were previously married to Ben Affleck.
