Michael Douglas claimed that Debra Winger was set to star alongside him in "Romancing the Stone," but she lost the role after a bizarre incident.

According to the actor, he and Winger met for dinner at a restaurant ahead of the 1984 film, which is about a mercenary and a writer who fall for each during a Colombian jungle adventure.

At the time, Winger was one of the most sought-after actresses in Hollywood after starring in 1982’s "An Officer and a Gentleman" with Richard Gere.

Things were going well.The 77-year-old said they were "talking and knocking back tequilas." But then, the "Fatal Attraction" star claimed that on the way out, the actress leaned over and bit his arm. "We walked out and, just as you kind of go ‘Oh you!’ and give someone a little punch in the arm, she goes ‘Oh you!’ and she reaches over, and she bites me on the arm," the star alleged on Thursday’s episode of Rob Lowe’s "Literally!" podcast.
