Reese Witherspoon Recalls Ruining Denzel Washington's Car as ... (Hollywood Reporter)

Reese Witherspoon shares some memorable interactions with Robert De Niro and Denzel Washington when she first started in the entertainment industry.

He then revealed to Witherspoon that while she was filming [Water for Elephants](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-reviews/water-elephants-movie-review-180802/), the actor’s daughter was the crewmember taking her costumes in and out of her trailer. “He had to finish the lines for me, and then I auditioned for him 10 years later,” she said. [Big Little Lies](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-reviews/big-little-lies-review-1214695/) actress said that years later, they saw each other at a wedding and Washington said he heard she had told the Porsche story. Some of her job requirements included answering phone calls and parking the actor’s Porsche when he came in, “which is not a good idea for a 17-year-old kid with a brand new driver’s license. A few years later, Witherspoon continued, she interned for the movie Devil in a Blue Dress, starring Washington, to learn the other sides of the business. She laughed while noting that she did not get the role. “I got so scared when I walked in the room. … I never seen Good Fellas, like I’ve never seen The Godfather, so it totally got on my nerves.” “I thought he was never going to remember that I had bricked that audition, and he was like, ‘I remember you.’ I was like, ‘Me?’ He’s like, ‘Oh yeah, you’re the one who couldn’t say the word.'” “I was 14. The Legally Blonde actress said when she went into the audition room, she couldn’t say one of her words and that De Niro had to say it for her. I didn’t know who Robert De Niro was, so I was standing outside and I was talking the receptionist and she was like, ‘You know, he’s the most important actor of our time.'” Witherspoon recalled.

Reese Witherspoon is opening up again about her time parking Denzel Washington's Porsche when she was an intern, when she 'stripped all the gears'

"Feeling vulnerable about getting older, wanting to reach for her dreams but always playing it safe so she doesn't get hurt." In the movie, she and Kutcher, 44, appear as "best friends and total opposites" who learn a valuable lesson from a life-swapping reality check. "She craves routine with her son in L.A.; he thrives on change in N.Y.," reads an official Netflix logline. Witherspoon wasn't totally opposed to the idea, either, explaining that now one of her kids has to intern for Washington and "destroy" his next vehicle as tradition. "But the funny story is I saw him a few years ago at a wedding," Witherspoon said.

Which Hollywood actor's luxury sportscar did Reese Witherspoon accidentally destroy while an intern? Find out what happened!

So remember, to become a Hollywood success story, start by destroying the car of someone important. She will also star in Your Place or Mine, the upcoming live-action fantasy movie Tinker Bell, and, of course, Legally Blonde 3. Reese Witherspoon didn’t just have a knack for acting, either. She was so scared that she couldn’t even say one of the words she was supposed to — an event that de Niro recounted a decade later when Witherspoon auditioned for him again. Despite Reese Witherspoon’s early missteps, she did eventually find her footing in Hollywood. Reese Witherspoon had apparently spread that story around enough over the years that Denzel Washington eventually heard about it.
