Morgan Freeman falls asleep during interview
Press Trust of India New York Veteran Hollywood star Morgan Freeman was caught dozing off in the middle of an on-air interview with a news channel.
The 75-year-old actor may have been woken a bit too early as he was seen sleeping on his chair while his 'Now You See Me' co-star Michael Caine trailed off enthusiastically about their new film, reported New York Post.
Freeman woke himself up about halfway through the satellite chat, but still had a hard time keeping his eyes open.
A statement from Freeman said, "I wasn't actually sleeping. I'm a beta tester for Google Eyelids. I was merely updating my Facebook page."
In 'Now You See Me' Freeman stars alongside Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco and Woody Harrelson as a group of illusionists known as the Four Horsemen. They use their magic show as a cover to rob the wealthy elite and give the stolen money to people who've lost everything during the economic crisis.
