Foster’s comments suggested that the pair barely spoke at all, but Anthony Hopkins recently revealed on Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard that this wasn’t at all the case. Foster has stated on multiple occasions that she was terrified of Hopkins on set, and there’s very little evidence that actually disputes her account. In fact, Hopkins’ own comments don’t contradict Foster at all, but rather dismiss any claims of ill feeling between the pair. Considering Anthony Hopkins delivered an Oscar-winning turn as one of the creepiest horror movie villains of all time in The Silence of the Lambs, it’s not hard to see how Foster would have been unsettled. However, this doesn’t mean that Hopkins’ own claims that the pair were friendly are untrue, either.
