Dustin Hoffman Recalls Being Caught in Bed With a Married Woman by Her Gun-Wielding Husband

11:39, November 10

Hollywood legend Dustin Hoffman once found himself in a situation where he was convinced he had only seconds left to live. The 89-year-old actor revealed that he was once held at gunpoint by an enraged husband after being caught having an affair with his wife. He shared the story on Conan O’Brien’s podcast.

“I was having an affair with a married woman. She thought that once her husband fell asleep, he wouldn't wake up,” the actor recalled.

According to Hoffman, the incident happened when he was young. The woman invited him to her home after her husband had gone to sleep. But their encounter ended in a nightmare.

“We were having… let's just say, a very passionate time, when suddenly her husband walked in with a gun. He pointed it right at me. I can still remember what he said: ‘Get out! Get out!’” the actor said.

Hoffman admitted that he vividly remembers the terror that overwhelmed him. The moment he saw the gun pointed at him, he realized just how close he had come to death.

“When someone points a gun at you, the first thing you realize is that the barrel is much bigger than you ever imagined. And you understand that at any moment, literally any moment, he could pull the trigger. His finger is already on it. And you think… you realize it's over. I'm going to die. I'm going to die in the next second,” the actor recalled.

“You're willing to do anything, absolutely anything, to keep from being killed,” he added.

Hoffman is currently promoting his memoir, Look at Me, which went on sale on November 10. In the book, the actor also reveals some unexpected details about the making of his iconic film The Graduate.

According to Hoffman, working on the movie was an extremely difficult experience. He claims that director Mike Nichols changed dramatically once filming began and became an entirely different person.

“His mood could change completely. I don't remember exactly which scene we were shooting, but I'll never forget his sarcastic voice after one of the takes: ‘What were you doing just now?… Do the exact opposite,’” the actor wrote.

Despite the difficult experience on set, The Graduate became a huge success and earned Hoffman his first Academy Award nomination.
