Sacha Baron Cohen recalls having gun pulled on him, getting chased by angry mob while filming Borat 2: 'Quite intense'

Sacha Baron Cohen is looking back at the not very nice time he had a gun pulled on him and was chased by an angry mob while filming 'Borat Subsequent Moviefilm': 'Quite intense.'

Cohen was in the middle of performing a song called “The Wuhan Flu” at the event when an undercover protestor identified him to fellow attendees. “Eventually they did, and one of them pulled a gun, and I was lucky enough to have a security guard that grabbed the arm of the guy and whispered in his ear, ‘It’s not worth it, buddy,’” he recalled. “Word got out that it was me and then the [gun rally] organizers and a lot of people in the crowd got very angry,” he told host Stephen Colbert at the time.
