Ioan Gruffudd and Chris Evans competed for the biggest codpiece on the set of Fantastic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer. Gruffudd admits his character Reed Richards' (Mr. Fantastic) package was too big in the last "Fantastic Four" movie, producers agreed it should be smaller in the upcoming sequel.
However, when the Welsh actor realized his co-star Evans was sporting a large trouser lump, he insisted his was boosted.
He says, "There's been much debate about my groin area on these movies. I started out wearing a codpiece underneath the suit and, of course, everyone's eyes just locked onto it because it looked so massive. Then the memos started arriving saying we needed to make it smaller. So it got smaller and smaller until I was more like Action Man.
"But this time it was all about Chris, who felt I got all the attention so decided to stuff a few socks down. Of course, I then had to tell him that I didn't have to pad it out with socks..."
