Days on the set can be super long. And boring.

That is, unless, you have hilarious co-stars who can leave you in hysterics.

Selma actor (and he of the unpronounceable name), David Oyelowo, is known for choosing rather serious roles, so if it weren’t for his co-star on his new film Gringo, Charlize Theron, we might never have known that the English-Nigerian star is quite adept at making people laugh.

During an interview on The Late Late Show with James Corden, the South African-born actress revealed that David has a pretty killer sense of humor.

I had never really seen him being funny. So the first night we got to Mexico if I had any doubts they were put to sleep. I kept saying, ‘You have to stop,’ and he wouldn’t stop, and he kept going with the story until I actually urinated myself.”

All those in favor of David doing more comedy, raise your hand (and perhaps bring some diapers)!
