Here is one of the craziest ever. The guy who took a rabbi, a monk and a priest into a meeting with a studio or dressed as Osama bin Laden for fun... Mr. Tony Kaye.
Haha yeah, there's a pretty good TV doc called Who Is Alan Smithee / Directed By Alan Smithee that goes into the American History X debacle quite a bit

Science fiction author Damon Knight was inspired to write "To Serve Man", later adapted into one of the most famous Twilight Zones, while he was being cuckolded. It was written in one afternoon while his first wife was out with another man.

A few years later he married fellow sf author Kate Wilhelm and they lived happily ever after.

For Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, director Frank Capra originally wanted to cast Tom Hanks as the lead, but agreed to go with Jimmy Stewart instead upon being informed that Hanks was not scheduled to be spawned until 1956, which would significantly delay production.

Look, all I'm saying is that no one has ever seen Tom Hanks and Jimmy Stewart together in the same place at the same time.

In the 1960s, Joel Grey was cloned as part of a top secret joint CIA-MI6 operation. His clone was adopted by a Scottish family and grew up to be Alan Cumming.

When John Waters was 14, one of his camp counselors used to jerk him off under the blanket. Young Waters was thrilled about it, but later lowkey blackmailed the guy for financing. Lowwwkey: found him (in the company of another teenage boy), exchanged an awkward greeting, and said with a "slight edge" in his voice, "so I'm making a movie and I need money for the budget..."

He got $30,000. And paid it back.
