Improvised Moments In Adam Sandler Movies That Were Too Good To Be Cut From The Movie

Finally, "Billy Madison" is also famous for being the film debut of the late Norm MacDonald. The Canadian comedian became famous for his deadpan anti-humor alongside Adam Sandler on "Saturday Night Live," in particular for hosting the long-running "Weekend Update" segment. MacDonald went on to have a successful career, including his own movie, "Dirty Work," and a 54-episode television sitcom, "The Norm Show." However, the actor admitted that he was ill-prepared for his first movie appearance in 1995.

In "Billy Madison," MacDonald plays one of the titular character's best friends who seemingly mooch off their wealthy friend by spending their days by his pool and drinking. However, it turns out the older actor took method acting to a new level when he became so intoxicated that he passed out during filming. "They wanted me to play a drunk," MacDonald said while retelling the story on Conan on TBS. "So, I said, 'got some booze?'" So, while the comedian is credited for his portrayal of a drunken lollygagger, MacDonald acknowledges not much acting was happening.
