- Dungeons & Dragons stars Hugh Grant and Chris Pine reacted to seeing their action figures for the first time.
- The couple joked that their toy pics looked like they were wearing diapers.
- Grant appeared on “The Late Late Show With James Corden” and then told them to “set them on fire.”
Hugh Grant joked with Chris Pine about burning their Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves action figures after they first saw them.
The couple stars in the new movie based on the famous fantasy RPG and were confronted about their toy resemblances during an interview on The Late Late Show With James Corden on Wednesday night.
“I’m a little worried about my big blue diaper or my chastity belt,” Grant said after receiving his character Forge Fitzwilliam’s action figure.
When Pine, who plays Edgin Darvis in the film, received his action figure, he added: “I understand what Hugh is saying. I’m wearing some kind of brown diaper. I look better in blue.”
Grant then interrupted Pine to say: “Shall we set them on fire? I used to do that. Have you ever had Action Man? My brother and I had a lot of Action Men and we burned them. Why did we do this? We hung them on the zip lines and lit them up, and then when we ran out of Action Men, we did it with our cousins’ Barbie dolls.”

Action Man is a British line of toy soldiers, similar to GI Joe’s action figures in the US, and was introduced in 1966, according to the company’s website.
Although Grant starred in a film about the tabletop game, he recently said on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert that he never played Dungeons & Dragons.
Grant mentioned that Pine tried to get him to play the game on set, but the actor lamented that movie sets aren’t as exciting as they used to be.
“Movies are so weird now. They’re weird because earlier, by the end of the second week, you’d all get drunk at night and have dinner and fall in love with each other and all that,” Grant said. “All of that stopped because of phones. Everyone goes home and looks at Twitter. It is so sad.”
Grant added that if phones were banned on set, there would be more affairs on set.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves hits theaters on Friday.
