Hollywood actress Jennifer Garner is disclosing that she previously accomplished a feat more frequently linked to boxer Mike Tyson.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jennifer revealed on Tuesday, February 3, that she once bit a stunt performer's ear off during filming a fight scene for her 2007 film The Kingdom.

Jennifer revealed that she had previously collaborated with actor and stunt performer Sala Baker on The Kingdom after she and her costar Nicolaj Coster-Waldau showed a scene from the upcoming season of The Last Thing He Told Me, in which Jennifer engages in a combat sequence with Baker.

During a press conference for her Apple TV series The Last Thing He Told Me in Santa Monica, California, Jennifer recalled, “Pete Berg, who was the director, told him to try to kill me. We did not have a lot of choreography, and he told me to do anything I could to survive.”

She added, “He did, and I did, and I ended up scrambling onto his back. I bit his ear, and we have a picture of him missing a chunk of ear, because we were not kidding.”

Jennifer also noted that when she and Baker reunited for The Last Thing He Told Me, the series' crew asked him, “‘Can you be careful with her?’”

“I was like, ‘No, no, no, no, he’s not going to be careful. I’m not going to be careful. Just back out of the way. I have a score to settle here.’ And Sal was with us the entire season,” she added.

The actress also warned, saying, "So prepare yourselves.”

Jennifer bit Sala Baker's ear "like Mike Tyson," particularly when Coster-Waldau pressed her about the event.

In 1997, Tyson, 59, famously lost a boxing battle against Evander Holyfield after biting off a piece of Holyfield's ear.

“Why are you all looking as if this is a great thing? What is wrong with you people?” Coster-Waldau joked.
