Mena Suvari gets 'mouth double' for 'Trauma' 2007-01-01

Mena Suvari had to be covered in insects for her latest movie, 'Trauma'.

The beautiful actress was brave enough to put a spider on her face -although she insisted on a 'mouth double' for scenes when co-star Colin Firth stuffs the creature into her mouth.

She confessed: "I would love to take credit for that scene, but I won't.

There was a mouth double. I guess I could have done it, but I did my share.

The spider actually touched my lips and got very close to being in my mouth."

Mena also had to be covered in ants for the movie - which remained in her hair even after washing it three times.
Meanwhile, Mena had to be escorted to the bathroom on the 'Trauma' set - because she was terrified the building was haunted.



The movie was shot in an old London railway station and she was so scared she refused to walk around on her own. Mena confessed to Britain's The Times newspaper: "Where we were shooting was really creepy. We were in the basement of a huge, ornate, Victorian building.
I always wanted somebody to walk with me when going to the bathroom.
I was scared something was going to pop out."
