Actors Matthew Perry and John Krasinski take a stand against filming cheating scenes

Actors Matthew Perry and John Krasinski refused to film cheating scenes in their respective TV shows, "Friends" and "The Office." Perry, who played Chandler Bing, rejected a storyline where his character would cheat on Monica Geller, played by Courteney Cox. Krasinski, who portrayed Jim Halpert, refused to have an affair with a new secretary while his on-screen wife, Pam Beesly (played by Jenna Fischer), was on maternity leave. Both actors believed that such scenes would negatively impact their characters and the audience's perception of them. Other actors, including Zendaya, Ben Affleck, and Emma Watson, have also stood their ground and refused to film certain scenes for various reasons.
